ANIMAL ESCAPED GLITCH

[spoon]

Anyone experiencing animal escaping but they are actually still in the habitat. Some of my friends are having this glitches too tho.

Same exact thing here, both through the ground and in-habitat "escapes" .

[Syvael]

This keeps happening with my arctic wolves.

Same here, I tried to change wall materials and height, but it doesn't change anything. 90% of the time it is the babies that escape. Super annoying since that makes lots of client run off my zoo everytime.

I've the same glitch since the update - wasn't an issue before. But only in case for my siberian tiger and timber wolf cups. Neither the adults nor any other animal type in my zoo has this issue.

And they aren't even close to any wall - they are considered "escaped" right in the middle of their habitat.

Those were the same exact animals.. in my case a siberian tiger adult and a wolf cub actually escaped in my franchise and a hyena sitting in its habitat saying it had escaped.

Although the siberian tiger was my fault now that I remember.. I had forgotten to raise the walls to over 3m.

"escapees" so far have been: red panda and snow leopard. (both young/adults).

Can't play my save anymore. I know my zoo is kinda risky, I barely make money because of food cost I was fine with that, but every now and then a macaque or a wolf just glitch in the middle of the habitat and people run away, it's killing my income every year.

A few macaques ending up in boxes too, for no reason that i can see. And the game only tells me when it's been too long in the box, good to know they were there in the first place...

The most frustrating thing is that i can load a zoo, any zoo ( and i tried 4 of them ) and something like that will happen in the first minute. So WTF Frontier, how much testing did they do before pushing this update ?!

guys it is not the walls. the animals aren't really outside, they usually glitch in the climbing stuff, on the ground. they try to climb shelter or climbing structures in specific places, and at that moment you get the message with the escaped animal. you can have a 100,000 m2 pen with 20 m high concrete walls, and the animal tries to climb a piece of wood in the center of it, BAM! boxing animation and escape message.

Im having same issues with animals that have never had this issue.

[Moving Target]

Same here not a single 'escaped' animal was outside its enclosure but I ended up handing out refunds like some sort of demented Santa Clause, this is killing my newest Franchise!
With climbing species I can sort of understand it as it has always been glitchy with those, but a CAMEL walking up a SLOPE triggered it.....................................come on!

This used to be this issue with the very first version of the game. It had been corrected in a patch. But now since today's patch it is back and worse.
- Animals are randomly boxed ;
- There are frequent and random fake escape alerts., with people running away.
Both situations are unrelated for me. Animals are automatically boxed after an alert, but also without an alert.
Animals concerned are various, both babies and adults. There have been guepards, lions, ebras, hippotragues, tigers...
It has been affecting the fun a lot... I hope they will correct it veeeeery soon !

[jmarc0121]

The frequency of this glitch is making the game annoying to play, not to mention that the cost of people fleeing from 'escaped' animals (aka refunds) is killing my once profitable zoo. I am going to wait for a fix (hopefully very soon)

[🐺Blue Wolf]

Yep happened twice so far in about 4 or so hours. Habitat is in tact and the animal just gets boxed inside the habitat. Prior to the update only had the issue when they actually broke out.

[Roccaleta]

Its happening to me as well. I was playing a prevoius save without fake escapes, and now its happening all the time in the same save. I guess its a bug

[Chrmdfreak]

Having a lot of trouble with "escaping" animals too which turn out to be climbing animals that just stay in their habitat but go up in the trees or their climbing stuff. So Lemurs, Red Pandas and such are constantly freaking out visitors AND getting boxed up and being unhappy.

[Rago]

Yes me too , and I still have a problem that I lose money for those escapes because visitors are unhappy so in 1 year -120k and still does not know anyone by chance what it means when I click on them so there is written that the animal is on a longer observation at all I do not understand
