I've been having an issue with my game where the guests are getting stuck on the pathway nothing is blocking them they just get stuck. only way to fix it is to delete the path but I don't want to have to delete all of the pathways in my zoo :(

you cannot remove a dead animal if the animal dies in a box

Unable to sign in to report issues, I see here others are having the same problem!
Here's a few issues I'm having:

* Initial animals will breed (my warthogs went crazy!), but no offspring will. Some animals won't breed past the first set of offspring.
* Exhibits are a waste of money - really expensive to set up and the moment they breed there's too many animals in the small exhibits and you need to spend $5,000 to make another.
* Also can't sell or move to trade center any exhibit animals so they are not profitable and are nothing more than a nuisance (it always says it's due to health issues with the animals but won't elaborate further).
* My mechanics won't research. If I try to add one to a project the screen jumps back to my vet research page and has no other effect.
* The rate of fences needing attention is ridiculous. You pretty much need a mechanic per enclosure to keep up. The enclosure cleanliness rate isn't much better.
* Animals occasionally end up boxed outside the enclosure for no apparent reason.
* Some trees can't be moved or deleted (ones that were already placed when you start up a new franchise zoo).
* Guests are annoyed by staff facilities even if they're blocked by barriers or covered in rocks etc. I've since found the view to show the impact radius, but seriously, the guests can't see animals through a walls and rocks but they can see staff buildings?!
* Animals that I try to put up for trade (the auction system) - a couple will sell, giving me a few conservation credits, but the rest just disappear completely! 20 warthogs = 10 credits in total!

That's all I can remember right now. I've had about 6 attempts at a franchise, all have crashed and burned because I can't make money. How are there countless YouTube videos of elaborate speed builds and awesome big zoos? Huge amounts of money to start (some even have 'unlimited' cash). For the beta I really just want to play around with stuff and get used to how it all works, but I can't :(

I can maybe help you fix your money problem, what I did was invest the first money into an hippo habitat, you can buy a few hippos on the market for cash and than a male one for conservation points on the market. This helped my zoo in two aspects,
1. I was constantly getting money, so I could start builing my zoo the way I wanted
2. I was also constantly getting babies, so I was getting a lot of conservartion points.
And don't forget donation boxes, you can have several boxes per habitat!

Mandrills keep dying from starvation. The keepers won't place food on the platforms. Also continues crashing when making a change in a workscedule

Same problem!

Guys, if you can't sign in to report issues, it's because you first need to sign in in Frontier's main webpage. After that go to your account and link Steam with that webpage. Then go back to the Issue Tracker and try to sign in with Steam. It should work!

animals can not breed.. pls fix it :)

Buttons all stopped responding when trying to deal with a starving juvenile ostrich. Apparently a larger ostrich was standing over it and bugged it out. When I tried to box up the juvenile, the buttons stopped working. Things would still highlight, but not work. Couldn't exit the game without shutting it down in explorer. Seems like a long way to go before release, guys.
I CANT EDIT MY WORKZONE, THE GAME CRASH.

Can't play at all. Campaign freezes on load screen and crashes. Franchise goes to load and crashes.
