Spreadsheet of Animal Interactions

[Alrecenk]

I was curious what animals could be put in the same habitat without problems, and I couldn't find a comprehensive spreadsheet, so I started making one. I extracted terrain requirement data from planet zoopedia, and the rest of it is manual testing in sandbox mode (well I wrote some scripts to help me generate efficient combinations to make things go faster). It's about 90% filled in, but I'm kind of losing steam, so I I figured I'd go ahead and share it. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1xL0mLGVifSBdure6SO2BldqZQttatHqvbjE950_qvyY/edit?usp=sharing

Key:
B: Interspecies bonus
T: Terrain/biome conflict
F: Fights
N: Neutral
S: Same animal
U:Unknown (I'm getting around to it, maybe)

Overall the results are mostly what you'd expect: carnivores kill herbivores, herbivores are mostly chill with other herbivores. There have been a few surprises. Basically nothing messes with turtles, so that's cool. The data should be pretty accurate, but there is always some chance that I didn't wait long enough before marking something neutral. Let me know what you think, if you see any errors, and if you want me to finish it.

This looks great thanks, just what I was after!

Would be great when you get your steam back for a key and colour code.

Actually gone ahead and added colours and filters and things myself so you can more easily sort out the ones you want. Thanks for the hard work

This is amazing! I've been wanting to figure this out but I thought there might be too many casualties along the way :P

The best Planet Zoo tool ever. Habitat size calculator auto adjusts as you add animals, details space needed, water needed, climbing area needed as you add animals, biomes and continents errors and approvals as you add animals, animals which are enriched by living with other species, fully up to date with aquatic animals...... Just add you animals and their numbers :)

As I said, I used the data from planet zoopedia as the starting point, but it only has about 1/6 of the non-terrain related interactions (this shows up as "Planet Zoopedia does not know if X and Y will get along" on the lower right). I tweeted at the owner of that site, and they seemed open to importing the rest of the data ( https://twitter.com/Alrecenk/status/1338044022401736710 ). So best case this data just gets folded in there, and you won't have to navigate the spreadsheet. For the moment though I just wanted to share it in case it doesn't get that far.

I didn't mean to shut down your hard work dude, sorry about that.
