🛠️ How to Build CUSTOM ENTRANCES in Planet Zoo! | Planet Zoo Tutorial

[@AwkwardCorgi]

Show me that perfect entrance animal tutorial, it's always a struggle figuring out how to lead into those first species in a good flow! So helpful, thank you Leaf!

[@whyareyoulookingatthis11]

Petition for this to become a series, where leaf builds a zoo but going very slowly in a tutorial style

[@TheGreastetHyrax]

YES PLEASE

[@CuriousWorldExplorers23]

YES! I third your petition!

[@djscorpio6017]

I agree this should become a series!!

[@sparrow838_]

"I'm great at run-on sentences" 😂 This was the tutorial I didn't even know I needed, thank you!!

[@MarcelPerkowski]

Yeah same

[@LeafProductions]

Glad it was helpful!🫶💚🤓

[@Somerandomdrummer8]

The thing that always gets me when playing planet zoo is car parks, I really can’t wrap my head around them, really puts me off making new zoos because I’m a sucker for realism

[@luukopjebeeldscherm4874]

Make this a Tutorial Series, would be perfect

[@Pip996]

Plz do a perfect entrance animal build. This is such a great entrance it NEEDS a zoo

[@Dantethedinodude8]

YEAH

[@emmanuelluchmun3981]

I liked this a lot. I watched the whole video and had a huge laugh at the panda statue / custom fountain at the end. Thank you, happy to see more tutorials !

[@reikunoreo]

Im new to planet zoo but I love playing zoo tycoon when I was a child, and this is definitely helping me build my entrance, thank you!

[@alkalinexandy]

This was such a fun video! You did a really nice job of breaking down the general idea - and highlighting what can be done technically to make it easier. Such a fun and inspiring watch! And yeah, a "perfect entrance habitat" tutorial would be awesome!

[@scharmoo]

This is PERFECT! Thank you so much for this tutorial, I always struggle with how to create my zoo entrances. Habitats? Got those down! But layouts and buildings? Yikes... This really helps me out! I would love to see you do more tutorials, you have earned a new subscriber :) Thanks Leaf!

Some tips for new players or ones with financial issues wanting to do things cheaply. ● save money by NOT deleting the already there spawners and just dragging them where you want them. ● when you build your enterance add walls and stuff in the same group as either your ticket gate or the spawner to make it easy to add pathing. ● the free electricity circles are centered on the gates, if you move them further apart you cover more free area. I personally like to make one "entrance" and one "exit" by rotating the gate around so its facing away from the zoo to give maximum free electricity coverage while encouraging guests away from the entrance. ● Skylights are your friend. More lights means higher electricity costs. If you can get away with natural light then do it. ● high breeding animals that can live in large groups (such as meerkats) or cohabbed animals will help with donations. ● You can use elephant grass trick in a loop and an invisible barrier right inside that loop to have "free roaming" peacocks or the illusion of it anyway. If you place the elephant grass just outside the barrier then it doesnt affect the animals plant coverage as much. The donations doing that go through the roof and with so much pathing around the entrance guests are less inclined to wander off trail. Or you could use that tendency to wander to create a picnic area with the invisible path option (one singular 4 width path square just under a table instead of a path all the way to and from). It also means that guests will tend to veer off and get some food/drink just before leaving too.

I have seen a LOT of planet zoo tutorial videos which are good but this one was fab. Simple, but so useful!

[@LeafProductions]

Glad it was helpful!

[@rafaelmoreira1765]

Wow, I really needed this video. I get so lost creating entries that I end up getting sick of playing. And the result is almost always silly.

[@MrHagan01989]

Watching this and the entrance animal tutorial has got me back in the game! Thanks Leaf, you're awesome!

[@4everasomeone535]

19:15 yes please

[@eitanpingi6416]

[@MiloBigKitty]

[@LeafProductions]

💚💚💚

[@DaantJ009]

Such a good video, love the enthousiasm!

[@ebony3221]

I absolutely loved this! Definitely going to try to make my own entrance now. Would love to see one on the entrance animal as well 😀

[@CuriousWorldExplorers23]

This was SUPER helpful and I would love to see you build the entrance animal habitat... and then the rest of the zoo! 🦁

[@VtubingFurryHuskyThatDoodles]

amazing and simple tutorial! im gonna have so much fun building for my guests now!

[@SillyGuylol]

4:21 I love the Columbus Zoo!!

[@GrumpyOldGuyPlaysGames]

The dangerous vendor comment caused me to spit coffee onto my keyboard. Bad, Leaf... no donut.

[@slaughterhater]

Thank you for this entrance tutorial, Leaf. This is exactly what I struggle with, layouts.

[@LeafProductions]

Glad it was helpful!

[@s.13.c]

didnt know i needed this until now

[@LeafProductions]

There you go!

[@kalaniwarner2095]

thx for this vid Leaf it helped me a lot :)

[@LeafProductions]

Glad it helped!

[@pennylane7377]

Thanks for the great advice!! And yes, thanks for the puns too! :)

[@pinguinboy2008]

Yes want more. Boosting the algorithm

[@bam6273]

I'm new to Planet Zoo and on the hunt for KZbinrs. I'm picky, you're number 3 lol Didn't hurt that you busted out the Massachusetts flag 😂

[@ClaireMichelle101]

Yeeeessssss!!!!!! Really wanted a video like this

[@Silkencira1710]

You always know what we need leaf 😜❤️

[@roopy2671]

This is so beautiful whattttt

[@SarD3an]

I have over 700 hours put into this game and I'm still learning from these videos

[@kiraashwell1415]

5:12 how are you laying the floor tiles ontop of the paths ive been fighting with the game for an hour trying to get them to work

[@LeafProductions]

I had freebuild, sorry! Just replace the paths in the grid with the modular tile

[@AlpMan444]

Exactly what i needed! Thanks

[@unlimitedairtime9112]

how did you do that circular section of path for inside the gift shop?

[@alishutt4846]

How do you place the souvenir shop stuff over the path? Great work by the way helped me a lot 😊

[@LeafProductions]

Freebuild unfortunately but instead of paths just replace them with the souvenir shop tiles !

[@lilubagy]

7:10 i did that a LOT XD This is a live saver to better position decoration and specially Lightings ! But most people dont use it :/

[@weirsgarage]

Great video Leaf

[@LeafProductions]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@deborafiedler1332]

Thank you , now I want to play ! 🎉

[@Warriorstarry]

How do u get ideas of where the paths re gonna be and how they'll be shaped? Oh and where do u put employee buildings?

[@MarcelPerkowski]

This is amazing!!!!!!

[@Nana4mmmmm]

how did you do the circle part in the main building

[@Awokengod]

Same

[@brett8674]

Yes we want it. leaf.

[@OlgaKluk]

what are those purple-blue shells in the place of hearts that you click to add an item to fav?

[@LeafProductions]

those are some mods I have, aquaria mod pack! i made sure not to use any in this map though (:

[@SaraGarcia-vj7zz]

Hi! thanks for the video. I was trying to do something similar in my zoo but at the part of the shop, I can´t put the floor over the one that´ve already built, I don´t know if I´m explaining myself... thanks. The part "facilities" of the video... thanks

[@LeafProductions]

I would take out the paths!

[@DaniBantjes]

If you already have a zoo, is it possible to move the zoo to one side to have more room to create a custom entrance? In Franchise it would be hard because you dont have alot of funds to create a big entrance in the beginning of the zoo. Thanks

[@LeafProductions]

Yes! Just move it lol

[@JuliusPlissken]

In the terrain brush tool sliders: how did you get your intensity up to 190% and you size up to 42? I can't go past 100% and 20. Thanks!

[@vickylewis8558]

Silly question, but do guests have to actually walk through the entrance barriers before they're 'in' your zoo and can start using the facilities? Like if I have toilets and an info booth inbetween where the guest spawner and zoo entrance are placed, will they use them or just walk straight past? TIA!

[@LeafProductions]

Yeah unfortunately

[@jesseallgood8349]

How do you place the souvenir shop tiles over paths? It always says "obstructed" for me when I try. Thanks

[@AZTECBLOODWOLF]

I need help figure out how to put my vines and screens so that they actually face the guest n not the sky. Also, i dont know to make custom climbing stuff for monkeys n just. stuff the animal. Can climb on ( I'm on ps5)

[@LeafProductions]

Align to surface!

[@AZTECBLOODWOLF]

@LeafProductions thank u so much I just got the game few days ago n still trying to figure everything out lol watching your videos inspire Me alot to try n make a really cool zoo

[@MTC9816]

How do you make a fountain like that, i mean how do u place water in there? Habitat barriers?

[@konsub1977]

🎉 Wow good idea

[@LeafProductions]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@Spanish__Mappper]

I can't place the souvenir shop expansion tile on the path, is there a reason and a solution?

[@Zyfazix]

I enjoy building habitats etc more than building an entrance. The entrance is currently still just a placeholder with an infopoint and I'm not even sure about the location 😅

[@gnick962]

The entrance is my favorite part then it’s all downhill from there😆

[@roopy2671]

I just build the same place expect the building, cuz I don’t have those pieces yet but I build in franchise I deleted everything I had lmfao doing a fresh start

[@ubaidullahgill3943]

thank you bro

[@LeafProductions]

Np! Glad it helped.

[@jasminefrazier9436]

I tried adding the gift shop and expansions but they wont go over the paths nor will they attach to the paths. i dont know what im doing wrong.

[@LeafProductions]

You can’t without freebuild unfortunately but don’t worry about it’

[@Kiwi_Ki-gt9zc]

Hey leaf, I know this is late but the game doesn’t seem to allow me to place the souvenir shop on top of my path? Wondering if you knew the fix?

[@LeafProductions]

You can’t apparently lol

[@netsnettok]

I always just start in the middle of the map and build my zoo from there without building an entrance. I might make an entrance now

[@wolf_pd]

Imagine rebuilding the ferry into a subway exit. Should be doable.

[@getbaked420]

Looks nice but how practical is it and do they even go up front to your other spot or is it purely all for looks? I like the looks but I also like my dumb zoo guests to use the shit I build!! Lol

[@LeafProductions]

Yes they do

[@lolboi-j1n]

You should make a whole tutorial zoo

[@drawing_kitty5519]

You can technically delete all guest spawners if you just spam click at the last one. Works for me at least.

[@davidflanary172]

Ok so it’s kinda late to say this but I’m not able to get to .5m with the pieces at 7:46 and this is making this whole build a GIANT struggle. Pls help!!!

[@LeafProductions]

It’s the grid (:

[@LeafProductions]

You might need freebuild!

[@AmeliaBawden]

how are you able to place the shop floor/souvineer shop tiles on the path? it wont let me!

[@LeafProductions]

i dont think you can, mustve let me for some reason. i suggest keeping a direct path of normal paths then fill in the rest with gift shop stuff

[@MrJet30]

why do i have to create a path then delete a path just to get the path i want nice and smooth, it sucks!

[@caidadams1013]

i dont get it, here in the video he can place the modular gift shop tiles on the path but in my game it wont let me

[@LeafProductions]

Take out the paths and it should work!

[@TheGreastetHyrax]

thank you for your help, but I need more

[@Indian_leather]

Best ;)

[@nerdygeekgamer5528]

I love these planet zoo how to tutorial's the really do help me in my own game an other building tips would be very helpful I have the begging's of one Zoo but I need to add 34 different locations into the zoo this Zoo is based off of a Zoo called the River Heights Zoo in the pc game Alibi in ashes it's the 25th adventure game in the Nancy Drew adventure game series the zoo is not the best in game you drive up to it hear the animals get back in your car and that's it no Zoo tour just a quick hop in and hop out so I need to add all 34 game locations the newest being Prague in the Czech Republic I also have to add Venice Italy and the English Moors along with Japan basically everywhere Nancy has gone on her mystery solving travels in the games I have to put in this one ZOO

[@crownalgodoo8095]

jwe2 needs planet zoo decoration options, planet zoo needs jwe2 pathing

[@gnick962]

I’ve been putting spawners in my coaches for no reason?!😭😭

[@TickyROBLOX]

GIMME THIS ENTRANCE :O

[@lupindae]

"Every shingle time, it looks good" Boooo *unsubscribes* /j Jokes aside, it looks great! Such a simple layout turned gorgeous with the right details.

[@theman4908]

This kind of game make me forget to eat

[@dinodex8396]

The problem with me is that I know how to make an entrance but i cant think of ideas ;_;

[@LeafProductions]

Zoochat!
