Guests not entering habitats

[lucylocketlou]

Just started to build a new zoo and made a peafowl habitat, but for some reason the quests won't go near it. I believe I have set everything up correctly (guest gates with path) so not sure what the problem is? I have done this type of habitat before in the past and had no issues...
The guests start to walk towards the habitat and then turn away and a thought comes up saying they wish they could have stayed longer to see the peafowl.
Any help appreciated!

I think the problem is, there are no guests in the zoo.

Haha there are guests in the zoo but not in the screen shot. As I said they start to go near the habitat and then turn away.

Well, I think it would be best to show us the actual habitat that has the problem, with guests trying to enter.

WOW...... a Screenshot that DOESNT show the problem.....

Here is a screen shot of my entire zoo.
As I have said, the guests start to go near then turn around and 2bh they don't even get that close to the habitat before they do. I have even tried putting the habitat closer to the entrance and they did the same thing.

Everything should be closer to the entrance, guests don't like to walk long distances without entertainment. Also I'd recommend playing the three tutorial missions in career mode.

There is no need to be rude. Surely the issue is with the habitat. Like I said I thought I laid it out correctly so was just asking to see if anyone might see my issue and not provide a sarcastic comment. -.-

Thanks, I will give that a try. I did actually move it closer and they still did the same thing, but will just probably re-start and try again :). I have actually played the tutorials. I guess I just assumed this wasn't a long walk for them!

To see the issue, one need to see the whole.... thats how it always work. ^^

And as long as you're testing the sandbox mode might be a better idea, no need to waste your cc as long as you're still figuring stuff out. And it will take a long time to figure everything out. ^^

Yes that's true! It's amazing how much there is to this game and how to keep the guests happy! The animals are quite straightforward, the guests not so much :P

Try placing either shops or one habitat literally at the entrance then expand out from there but don't have guests walking long distances, a good plan would be to have your initial builds within the power radius from the entrance to save money and keep everything nice and compact.
Moving your walkthrough exhibit so it's entrance is on that main path at the bottom of your screenshot should work

Thank you, I have tried that and it worked! I obviously forgot that they can be a little lazy! :)
