How do I visit other player's zoos?

[jonathan.bruntz]

I have watched tutorials and googled this as much as I can. From what I hear, from my franchise area of Planet of Zoo it should be under edit? I even have people visiting my zoos. Under the steam community I have subscribed but still have no luck??? Please can anyone help me ?

You don't actually visit zoos. Your avatar will randomly visit other peoples zoos if you choose not to visit anonymously.

If you want to play in someone elses zoo you will need to subscribe to their zoo ( not building ) and load it into your sandbox mode and if allowed to ( limitations can affect your playability ) you can play as if it is your own zoo .. or you can just view it without interacting with anything.

I'm sure if I have got some things wrong someone will pipe up :)

@XrystalBelle is correct but I will try to clarify it a bit.

Planet Zoo is a single player game. When you see people visiting your zoo they are not the actual people, it's just using a real players name. Nobody is actually visiting your zoo and no other players can see your zoo. Other players see you visiting their zoos in the same manner even though you are completely unaware of it.

If you would like someone to see your zoo you can upload it the steam workshop where people can subscribe and check out your zoo if they wish but you will still not know or interact with them in any way.

I hope that helps but I feel it might just be even more confusing, Bottom line is (single player game) no interaction with other players in any way. Consider the online market as buying off of E-Bay but without a contact for returns.

Thank you both! Not confusing any more, everyone who was explaining on youtube had me LOST. Although I think, they should incorporate that like Sims does, but just my opinion. Thank you :)

Lol, I like that in Planet Zoo it makes it feel bigger. It gets creepy when my own avatar visits your own Zoo.

This is already interesting. Now please could someone give me a hint how to actually find a zoo and subscribe to it and how to then load it into my sandbox mode?

Go to the workshop, look for a zoo you like, click subscribe and it will appear in Planet Zoo in "My Zoos" in the downloads tab.

Workshop, click Park on the right hand list. Subscribe and when in game find it under downloads.

LOL Hlaine you are fast :)

Do you earn conservation points by visiting another zoo in sandbox mode?

You can earn Conservation Credits (CC) if another player's avatar visits your zoo, click on them and say hello. It will give you 20 CC (there is a daily maximum I think of 100 CC) .

You don't need Conservation Credits in Sandbox, you have unlimited :) It's best used for Franchise mode and Challenge mode

I was not aware that you could visit other player's games in The Sims, and I have played every incarnation of the game. I recall that many players can play the game with their own Save, and you can visit their houses, but in the same game, on the same PC, so only one person could play at once, that I know of.

I play in the sandbox, and still try to play as if I did not have unlimited cash and CC when it comes to making money. The economy stats still function, profit and loss etc. I only use the recycle bins for example, they give CC do they not? I also only release or rehome animals, and that also gives CC (and makes your zoo more popular.) I don't allow Visitors now, but when I did, by clicking on them it displays what they think of your zoo.

How can I find other Dutch speaking players? Apparently there are not that many Dutch speaking users on this platform or am I not searching in the right direction? Could someone give me some tips or advice to find such players? Thanks in advance.. Marc D. Belgium !

Recycling bins do not provide conservation credits, they merely add to your conservation rating of your zoo
