Flock ability based on animal rather than enclosure.

Post by RicardoRix »

Does anyone else feels it's a bit weird that the flock ability is based on the animal, rather than the enclosure.

So if I build a size-4 enclosure and then either:

- Put a Red Kangaroo(flock-4) in it, then I can put the Red Deer (flock-3) in with it.

- But if I put the Red Deer in first, then the Kangaroo can't be placed in with it.

Same animals, same enclosure...

It's consistent with the fact that you dont keep track of where animals go into your zoo. But I agree that thematically, it's a bit weird.

That is true. Good point.
I guess the zoo administration team might mix up their paper work and forget where they put their animals. Easy mistake to make.
