Transfer money in franchise?
What's the point of having franchise mode if you can't share money to other zoos that are in need instead of trying to be independent of each other?

Your CC do share across, and any animals in your trade centre share across.

Real world franchises operate the same way, so I think it fits the name of the mode. Conversely, if you could share money, I'd wonder what the point was. "I'll just have a central cash farm with all the most profitable attractions and throw money at any new zoo I want to start." Feels like I might as well play sandbox at that point.

Except sandbox don't have challenges and can't trade animals with others?

"Play sandbox" is the fanboy answer to every complaint.

i think Sheriff has a point on that. many would just have a cash cow zoo and grind out money from there while there other zoo's are failing horribly. i do like that i can move my animals from a poor zoo while i try and fix it so that they arent suffering lol.

It wasn't an answer, it was an observation. I was stating that if I could just pour loads of cash into every new zoo because I had one ridiculously profitable one that could share money freely, there'd be no challenge, and I may as well be playing sandbox. I never told OP to go play sandbox. Don't put words in my mouth, and don't throw around the word "fanboy" in reference to a game that just launched its maiden installment three days ago.

There's always challenge if it involves money. For instance what if I want to still go through researching and unlocking but I'm just having budget constraint and wished other franchise zoo which is earning money can loan some on the new zoo?

Ah damn, i was hoping to be able to transfer something as a single time boos at least.
But at least i know now that its pointless to collect money and i can focus to farm conservation points with my first zoo.

Permanently shared money would be gamebreaking for this mode ofc.

I couldn't figure out if you have to do all the research everytime from the scratch.
That would really piss be off for the mechanical research, because thats just a chore.

If you breed a bunch of animals you could sell them for cash in the other zoo, but for them to be worthwhile you will have to breed decent animals and then the choice will be between 5k cash or 400 credits...

Oh, so the whole trade-section is franchise wide... thank you, thats good to know.
While i would prefer credits as well, one could do so with high-ql and high-price Exhibit animals.
Guess i will experiment a little with those, my first zoo is a clusterfk and learning project for me anyway.

I never played planco so i got pleeeenty stuff to learn on all fronts.
(It is beyond me why i didn't fked it up already, but its running fine, looks like ♥♥♥♥ but running fine.)
