the staff getting lost and do nothing

[Ava Najia♥]

Why is my staff often getting lost? Then I watched the animals die and could not do anything. I played for 86 hours and I have seen this situation twice. I am very disappointed. There are too many bugs.

I just had a keeper get lost. He just stood there and twitched while his status quickly flashed between Lost and Wandering. I restarted the game and he was unstuck but why is "LOST" a thing anyway.

Because ♥♥♥♥ happens. AI is hard to do and PZ AI has to make a ton of fast decisions. It partially depends on you to build intelligently.

Twice. In 86 hours. Oh man. Game breaking.
And there's always something you can do. You just have to figure out the cause.

LOL! It's a tiny little zoo with 1 habitat and 2 exhibits. Not very many paths and the keeper has already been walking those same paths for 9 years without a hitch. I think he's got dementia.

Sounds like a work area issue.

Sounds like a bug to me. My work zone worked perfectly fine for 9 years, until it didn't. No changes were made and it was fixed by restarting the game. If that doesn't meet the bar for a bug than I don't know what does.

I just stumbled upon training. Says: "Trained staff will perform better."
Could this be the solution?

I forgot to mention that said keeper was already trained to 3 stars.

I had my worker notification flashing on and off constantly. too fast to click on it. I eventually found 3 keeps all stuck together unable to move anywhere. they were all glitched together. Totally ruined my game!
