how to kill Crocodiles?
First off, love the re-release.

Two points:

If I build near crocs, they keep snacking on my citizens. In the original game you could move archers near to ensure this didn't happen. Is there a way now to turn 'em into handbags rather than people-eaters?

Secondly, I read that a mini-map wont be implemented. If it's at all possible, it would be really helpful to have it back. When you start a new map it helps to look at the overall map to plan things out.

other than that, it's great to be able to go back and play this all over again =)

Hello, we are planning to implement protection methods from predators just like in the original game very soon. For the time being you can turn off predators in the options.

cops should kill them and keep streets secure... not in new era, e bug maybe ?

Wondering too, the police just walk by it in my city instead of killing a crocodile.

I can quite understand that one policeman is going to struggle when nose-to-snout with a big croc, but they could at least have a go!

You can't. This tells you how much these devs know the original.

Thought policemen would kill them as well. Since they are pretty much just an annoyance you can't deal with I just turned of Predators in the options.

back in the days we would set speed to 10 % and build decorations around them...

In OG I use to build towers, especially for the hippos in the reeds killing all my reed gathers. It was pretty effective. But defensive structures weren't available in the earlier maps.

Well, I've just created a few policemen station and they dealed with crocodiles, so this seems to be the solution, as in the original game

My policemen just walk right through the crocodiles

Constables are supposed to kill them - but in my experience they haven't been doing it at all. Just walking by.

My solution in the original game was to use Archers to take them out, but with the weird new military mechanics that's impossible.

I've just opted to turn predators off - they're not worth the frustration without being able to use your military to deal with them.

yeah this is stupid, my policemen just walk past them and you cant use your army. good graphics aren't worth gameplay mechanic sacrifices

Thinking I will do this too till they can be fixed, as they keep hanging out near warehouses and killing all the walkers with goods

A tower with a soldier on used to work pretty well.

Great question. I wonder this myself. In the original constables along with the military units were the best options but now in Abu Mission oh well you don´t build near the crocs or turn the option off. The latter isn´t really an option in my opinion. I hope this gets fix soon.

In the Abu mission briefing the sound stops near the half in the german version.

Unfortunately no way to do it with how military is now, I just turned predators off entirely, idk what the intended method is.
