▶ TOP 10 Building Tips & Tricks Everyone Should Know: Part 1 | Planet Zoo Tutorial

[@jenniferpool7163]

When I first started playing this game I got really frustrated trying to create areas. Now, because of these tips and tutorial videos, I finally have calming fun with this game. I can let my creativity flow and enjoy sometimes just watching the animals play around the park. thank you for making this game fun!

[@DeLadysigner]

Aaaw I am SO happy to hear that 😃❤

[@Thenorskedame]

@jenniferpool7163 same 😅 i havnet played in long tho but i’am gonna start Soon!

[@INKI_teh_Rogue]

So many of these tips videos teach you how to work around the UI that fights against us for no reason 😅

[@Anakin0217]

We have to rely on awesome KZbinrs like DeLadyDesigner to show us these things that the game does not!

[@jandy1850]

*Human being, v.s Planet Zoo UI. Who will win?*

[@V1ct0rSHADE]

Yeah the ui is pretty frustrating but at some point it's manageable. Takes forever to learn any shortcuts

[@mikaderii8788]

I've been playing for more than 300 hours now and I've still learned a few things. Thank you very much.

[@DeLadysigner]

You are welcome 😊

[@soulvacation]

Thank you for this Lady! ❤️ 600 hours into the game and just learnt how to finally properly do the mud pillar technique! And didn’t know shops could be apart from paths. Bending the first barrier with Z is also a nice, not-so-obvious tip that took me a while to know too! Also I never knew recolouring worked only in groups, could never figure out before when it did/didn’t work! Ps. You are great at explaining things in a simple and clear manner :) FINALLY I UNDERSTAND! ❤️ haha /wall of text

[@DeLadysigner]

Thnx so much lovely ❤ glad I could help ❤

[@gray-thesilverquill]

I didn't think I'd learn anything from this video but that mud pillar idea is GENIUS

[@DeLadysigner]

Hihi glad it still helped 😄

[@jandy1850]

I mean the whole time I was going "That looks soooo goood!!! This is gonna make my builds so much better! Oooh, I love that!" When you got to the part abotu removing terrain constraints and being able to cover walls I swear, my day got 100% better, because I'd been struggling and constantly annoyed by not being able to edit the land without having to delete a fence, move an enrichment item, and etc. I finally told myself to stop being so stubborn and just watch a tip video, and I was not disappointed!

[@DeLadysigner]

Haha you are so welcome ♥

[@leaaxxc]

Omg I searched so long for this Ctrl+x thing FINALLY

[@DeLadysigner]

You are so welcome ♥

[@rollmeinrice]

[@TheLuckyDanes]

Thank you so much for the no collusion tip. My enclosures always get so ugly because of the gap between my barrier and the terrain

[@DeLadysigner]

You are so welcome 😘

[@naomiverspaget2509]

I really love this game but I find it hard to stay motivated because I'm just not advanced or skilled in any way. This tutorial helped me so much. Thankyou!

[@DeLadysigner]

You are so welcome 😘

[@jakeosiris3971]

i bought this game because i loved zoo tycoon 2 as a kid, the building system in this game is quite advanced so i didn't play too long, trying to get back into it though

[@makingmilkmiracle]

@@jakeosiris3971 I had the same problem, so I started playing in career mode, where everything is mostly done, you just need to add some adjusments in later stages, yet the challenge mode is really nice and you can focus more on animals and learning the mechanism of the game without having to focus too much on building. It really made it easier for me to learn how to operate the game both strategically and with building so I recommend it :)

[@rach3lf204]

Thank you so much for this. The last section on then collision settings is a game changer. I’ve been watching you and Rudi do this for ages and didn’t know how!

[@JoeTirabassi]

ya same here

[@DeLadysigner]

[@pix9755]

11:32 The way you said "The possibilities with Planet Zoo are endless" sounded so warm and sincere. Gosh I just joined this planet zoo community yesterday and I allreayd feel so at home

[@DeLadysigner]

Aaaaaaw ❤️ A big warm welcome to you! Hopefully my videos are helpful enough to get you started 😘

[@titus4166]

Just got this game last night 11/24/21 on steam. There’s a Black Friday Sale for base game for $13.00. The premium bundle is on sale from $120 to $57 until December 1st. And you get ALL the DLC. Totally worth it, and I’m currently doing the tutorials and having so much fun. I feel like it’s got quite a learning curve, but if you stick to it and try, it’s really fun. And you learn about the animals and conservation efforts as well; which is educating and enriching to oneself. I’m hooked. There’s just so many cool tools and tons of creative ways to build. I love it.

[@LucidDream]

I just picked up the game from the steam sale. Was wondering how to build more in depth. Have watched a few of your videos now and just have to say thank you. This was so helpful. You are very creative. I hope I can learn some patience and create something as beautiful as you do.

[@DeLadysigner]

You are so welcome ❤️ Have fun playing ❤️

[@Sembel-xh9vq]

If you like the building mechanics you could try planet coaster. Basically the same building controlls, but with a theme park.

[@natt6301]

oh my god thank you!! I bought this game a week ago and have been STRUGGLING!! Your advice is going to help me a lot!!

[@DeLadysigner]

Glad I could help! ♥

[@kingironside]

Every tutorial you make is just golden. The little tooltips you put up help a lot. You are also very good at explaining things. This will help my building so much thank you.

[@DeLadysigner]

You're very welcome! ❤️

[@bittersweet6631]

Thank you so much for your tutorials. I do enjoy Planet Zoo a lot, but the general building (and especially path building) system is so overcomplicated and frustrating, that it was impossible for me to figure it out on my own. I put hours in, to experiment with the structures and paths and yet it never turned out the way it should

[@DeLadysigner]

Hopefully the tutorials can help a bit ❤️

[@Necreon021]

Thanks, ctrl x to copy instead of ctrl d, I had no idea about it after 120 hours! A hint in return: when you show an example, instead of "imagine there is a path here" and "habitat here", build that too! It's like 30 seconds tops. Someone might not know that your fence doesn't count as habitat fence without null border. :)

[@sarahwitty5039]

Got planet zoo as a gift few days ago and keep restarting my zoo as just not happy with how it's going. These tips are amazing and very helpful. Built my first habitat im happy with. Thank you

[@DeLadysigner]

Wow. I have played Planet Zoo for years, for over 400 hours, and I just now learned about the collision options from this video. I have literally abandoned entire zoos because of how frustrating NOT having these options on was. Thank you

[@DeLadysigner]

Aaaw you are so welcome ❤️

[@siabair7957]

I am late to the party, but after years of struggling I finally found the patience to watch PZ tutorials and I am absolutely not regretting it! Thank you so much for helping us to unleash our creativity with all the tips, habitats and buildings contructions and zoo tours you give us!

[@DeLadysigner]

Aaaw you are so welcome ❤️

[@BeckieAmIRite]

Holy shit, this was SO helpful thank you. I played through the entire tutorial/ campaign and this 25 min video was a billion times more helpful. Thanks so much!

[@lolatronification]

The reason for the pieces not moving perfectly straight at 5:26 is due to the orientation mode you have set. You were translating the piece using the world orientation instead of the piece orientation. So the piece moved correctly on the world z axis, instead of the piece z axis. This can be configured using the central outer button on the building context menu :D

[@DeLadysigner]

Try it yourself with the exact pieces and come back again 😉

[@DeLadysigner]

Or just scroll down to Alexander Soholm 😄

[@someonewithpoortaste]

I remember few months ago I was soooo frustrated trying to build without the duplicate-move tips, because litteraly I couldn't place things even and I just couldn't make "clean" structures. So I only had zoos that looked like a bunch of ruin, it wasn't bad but I really wanted to make some clean cages for my monkeys, some fences that don't look half broken, y'know :')

[@qqccrryy]

That mud pillar trick is GENIUS, I have so many new ideas just from that!!

Bought the game 36 hours ago and the controls (and camera whoa) are really frustrating. Your soothing voice and good pacing is very helpful, and the instructions are marvelous. (i found the two sections to change the keybinds on the camera, but they're not working properly) Anyway, thanks very much and glad to see active players even now. (hahahahaha i bought planetcoaster but it looks like the building mechanics are the same)

What I really enjoy is that you present a future problem that is connected to what you're covering. Such as with the colored rocks. You continually do this in your videos and it's really helpful to have that foresight to a problem we'll likely encounter but wouldn't have anticipated otherwise.

[@DeLadysigner]

Happy to help ♥

[@fluffy9860]

Thank you for letting me know about the bug. I always thought it was just me doing something wrong cause sometimes it works perfectly other times I'm left confused and frustrated cause it doesn't work no matter what I try.

Thank you SO much for showing us the "mud pillar technique!" I've wondered about that for a very long time. :D PS - If you're like me and CTRL-x is stuck in your brain as "cut" not "copy," you can change that shortcut to CTRL-c. ;)

[@DeLadysigner]

Hello lovely! A small habitat mostly takes around 1,5 hour or so 😊 bigger builds can take up to 2, 3 or sometimes (worst case scenario) 6 to 8 hours.. I prefer the smaller once tho 🤪 I hope this helps ❤

Thank you DeLady! I was having issues trying to group objects together not realizing I may have a mix of grid and non-grid that is causing it. I'll need to go back and find the culprit.

omfg. i always love your buildings and stuff,its so inspirational BUT ... i was like ":O" when i saw the options in the game settings... i am crying.

[@DeLadysigner]

I think that is where things go wrong :) instead of redoing things.. which obviously is not bad, because Im sure you are learning from it.. but instead.. if you are not happy, try adding more things to it until you are satisfied :) I honestly barely remove a habitat because I am not happy with it.. but I always just try to keep adding things to it, until I am happy :) ALso.. trying to rebuild things in as much detail as possible, will also help you to learn a lot in the game building wise, also highly recommened trying that for a habitat or two :)
