Hi everybody!

Just kind of venting I guess- I used to play ZT2 a ton growing up, but only recently started playing again. This is literally my favorite game of all time, but I’m so frustrated at how poorly this game is running now. I don’t remember having these kinds of issues to this extent, and it’s making it feel impossible to play.

No matter what I do, I cannot get my animals to just… meet their needs? They won’t eat or drink or play or really anything despite having all the food and water in the world unobstructed. Literally leading a horse to water and can’t make it drink. Restarted the game, reinstalled the game, restarted new zoos, you name it. One food/water item or 20, they will barely go for it, and are constantly getting sick. Then the zookeepers “can’t reach” either them or their poop or who knows what even though they very much should be able to reach.

Plus I’ll have the same issue with guests too. They’re complaining and complaining that they need places to sit and eat, and I have literally even tried placing tables and benches every few spaces until I have dozens of these items in my zoo to no avail.

Lastly, I have a few exhibits placed where guests just… keep getting inside and my animals are constantly getting crated for being “not contained?” I keep replacing the fencing and it doesn’t help.

Really bummed that this game just… doesn’t appear to be working.
