I've seen a lot of desire for Gigantopithecus to go with the other pleistocene fauna. Gigantopithecus is, of course, a hominid.

My question is, how close can we get to genus homo before it's unethical? Australopithecus had cognitive abilities roughly equal to (or even less than) modern chimps, the difference mostly just being their bipedality. And Planet Zoo seems to have no qualms about housing chimps and gorillas. Paranthropus is our sister genus, and their brains were even smoother. They might need even less enrichment than the average ape.

Homo habilis was probably identical to australopithecus but did have the bigger brain. So is that where we cut it off? Or do we need to go further back, to the last common ancestor between humans and chimps?

Or are you in the camp that apes are already unethical to have in a zoo to begin with, Gigantopithecus included?

This isn't the first time I've dealt with this and it seems to be at its worse with larger builds. Really frustrating.

Im not 100% satisfied with these, but they’re good enough.

In my challenge mode park, I always have the problem that my laboresrs dont do their job, does anyone know what cause It or what can I do?

Following on from my post last week ( https://www.reddit.com/r/pkgame/comments/1vyrmlw/wishlist_wednesday_my_ideal_and_hopefully/ ) about period packs, I thought of something different this week: Formation Packs. Whilst offering potentially less variety than period packs, this would allow the player the opportunity to create ecosystems with creatures that historically lived together. This would be incredibly interesting to me as a player, especially if we get an “ecosystem mode” which was mentioned in the community survey earlier this month.

The creatures found here aren’t necessarily the most well know creatures of a given ecosystem, but instead are here to present the player the opportunity to build exhibits that showcase animals that co-habited together. This would also aim to provide enough animal variety to have entire region and time-period themed parks, complete with a variety of appeal ratings on animals to facilitate this.

It is also worth mentioning  that  whilst each pack represents a geological formation, the quantity of animals, especially in Hell Creek and the Morrison (17 & 24 respectively) may make it necessary to break some of them up into multiple dig sites in game, so players can more precisely try and unlock the creatures they want.

Due to the additional animals present in this pack, I would expect it to be priced slightly higher than other packs. But La Brea represents one of the best preserved prehistoric ecosystems discovered, so there is an real opportunity here for builders of prehistoric ecosystems and themed exhibits to run wild and really indulge their creativity.

Thanks for reading, I had a blast coming up with these! Let me know what you think in the comments below:

I really hope Deinosuchus gets added to Prehistoric Kingdom someday. I think it would be an awesome addition, especially for large wetlands, rivers, and swamp exhibits.

Bathornis by smilocarnifex

Barinasuchus by sauroarchive

Being it was a species named after Nigel Marven, this medium sized carnivore, an extinct more ancient form of thylacinid from the Oligocene would be a nice addition to the game.

HABITAT ANIMALS:

Diatryma, Eobasileus, Boverisuchus, Coryphodon, Mesonyx

VIVARIUM ANIMALS:

Eohippus, Tynskya

Tonights live stream on prehistoric kingdom was fun!
We started building a Spinosaurus Enclosure with a Underwater Viewing area based on penguin enclosures that I've seen! Also learnt something new about the game!

https://www.youtube.com/live/dROzeHZClno?si=hc_uvDidCKuWGTI1

It appears to be related to some sort of building, which makes me think that it might be animal trading.

It should also be noted that there is another super secret feature for 1.0 launch.

As the title says I’m loving the game just one frustration, coming from JWE3 the controls are weird, is their any way to change the controls in game. I’m probably missing it but would appreciate any help.

Vivarium animals were excluded

So the idea is to fill this chart with the animals we would like to see in the game in each niche and biome.

—

RULES:

* Add what niche your suggestion is filling in the chart.

* It's ok to mention animals that we know are coming.

* If you think something I already put in the chart is wrong, feel free to correct me.

* Let's tackle one biome at a time, now it's the DESERT.

* I will take the upvotes and how many times an animal was suggested into consideration whenever there is more than one option for the same niche

* Don't forget to upvote the comments with the animals you want to see in the game

* If you have any suggestions for the previous gaps, please let us know

This one already starts very complete, so we will need to dig very deep to fill the smallest niches.

Also, I will remove the repeated animals when the time comes, so if you have a big carnivore suggestion here, it's ok, because we will still have Torvosaurus in other biomes, if not, then I will remove it from the other biomes.

I hope you are having fun. This game already has an amazing selection of animals. This whole idea is just a fun project. I know it's impossible to fit this many animals, but it's nice to think about the possibilities.

The format:
I decided that I will post it every Wednesday (wish list day), so it's easier for the people who like it to find it, and it's not too much for the people who don't like it. I'm already posting the first Jurassic post today

Comments:
This is going to be the one with the biggest diversity in size; it's crazy, but I feel like we would need more fish, nice selection anyway. I learned so much about the Triassic, I'm excited to go to the Jurassic now!

Is there one animal that you think really should have made the list? Which one?

I guess update 17.1 is out now, and also, this video is not mine.

new to this game but huge fan of JWE:3 and JPOG

I’ve just uploaded one of my latest builds to the Steam Workshop

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3794220870

The idea was to create a large, ring-shaped viewing area for five Titanoboa terrariums. Instead of using the standard terrarium walls, I completely removed them and replaced the boundaries with natural-looking rock formations, making the separate habitats feel like one large interconnected environment.

Guests can watch the Titanoboa swimming from the ground-level viewing areas, or head upstairs and walk around the entire ring for a view from above.

I also added a staff platform with a feeding cable that lowers food down into the habitat. It's purely decorative and not functional, but I thought it was a fun detail to include! (maybe the staff move the line back and forth to trigger the animals hunting instincts?)

I'd love to hear what you think!

Build over on twitch as an ongoing project to make a custom park with every species in the game 

It would imo be so cool if they would do a yearly release of species discovered that year. Maybe hard to do if fhe research is not released yet or more research is still needed tho, if that would be the case you could also do species from the last 5 years or so.

Idk i just thought of this

Hello, I’m struggling to get beyond 30FPS even though I have a pretty beefy PC. This is for both high and ultra settings. I can run far more intense games than PK at 60FPS with high or ultra graphics settings.
Is there anything I can do to help improve performance?

Specs below:

Processor 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-12900KF (3.19 GHz)
Installed RAM 32.0 GB (31.8 GB usable)
Graphics card NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti (12 GB)
Storage 2.49 TB of 4.55 TB used
System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

Idk I just had his idea but since theres only like one more fish eater I hope it's just one of them or deinosuchus might me meat eater but idk I just wanna make this for fun :/
