  • Do you struggle creating Planet Zoo habitats from scratch? My starter habitats for beginner players is a set of ready-made habitat blueprints that are easy to place, optimised to meet animal needs, don't need DLC or in-game research to place. Having developed a whole set of starter habitats for the PC version, I'm now redeveloping them for the Planet Zoo Console Edition! In this video we take a tour of the habitats I've already uploaded to the Frontier Workshop.

    I'm not a console player, but I used Swan's starters a lot! when I was beginning. If nothing else, I enjoyed breaking the starter down to see how they are constructed, so I can make my own.

      Great idea! Using blueprints to figure out how someone else has built something really helps. Console players are getting vastly improved starter habitats since I'm implementing everything I've learnt in how to build them over the last 4 years!

      I'm looking forward to be able to do this. I play on console with my controller, but I've also played with my mouse and keyboard hooked up. I'm a horrible builder, but I love just attempting to try my own or pulling builds apart in sandbox mode to see if I can recreate it.

    I would like to say 3 things. You forgot to add the tasmanian devil to your every animal franchise zoo. You will also have put all the Eurasia pack animals in the zoo too. Finally when is the every animal franchise zoo gonna appear in the workshop because we've been waiting for months?

    • @PlasticSwans
      @PlasticSwans  Před 2 měsíci +2

      Please try to keep comments relevant to the video as it might get confusing for people viewing this for console. In terms of Every Animal Zoo, I haven't got to the Tasmanian devil yet, there's still about 10 animals to go. Yep, the Eurasia animals will be coming too. It won't be on the workshop until it's complete, so another couple months probably

  • @alienraven
    @alienraven Před 2 měsíci +1

    these look great,one thing that annoys me when building habitats of my own, is that knowere in the zoopedia (at least as far as i can tell) does it telll you the exact terrain, plant and temperature requirements for each animal. This annoys me, cus i like to plan ahead and get the enclosure completly finished before the animal goes in.

    • @PlasticSwans
      @PlasticSwans  Před měsícem +1

      Yeah, I think the temperature issue is an oversight. We get temperature information in the zoopedia on the PC version. For plants etc. unfortunately it's guesswork until you put the animal in!

  • @taras8124
    @taras8124 Před měsícem +1

    I have tons of locked blueprints now that I was able to use at console launch. Its strange too because one of them is just a basic rock cave lol. I just dislike having to build caves for career mode lol.

    • @PlasticSwans
      @PlasticSwans  Před měsícem +2

      Yes, this was an oversight on the console version that they fixed in the last update. Blueprints containing items that need to be researched by the mechanic or vet will show up locked. Now that it's working as intended, I need to go back and check all of my starter habitats to make sure they're working as intended!

    • @PlasticSwans
      @PlasticSwans  Před měsícem +1

      I think it's the barrier type that's keeping some locked. The bengal tiger habitat has a glass barrier which I can't change because of where the water sits in the habitat (mistake on my part) and a few I've used concrete barrier, which does need research to use. I'm going to go back and change this so that they're useable right away

    • @PlasticSwans
      @PlasticSwans  Před měsícem +1

      You can rename animals by selecting the name, that's R3 button for PS5 but not sure what that is on Xbox. You cannot however rename animals in franchise mode. I think it's to do with the profanity filters, they've decided to just prevent us renaming them in that mode.
