Summary (AI)

Patch 1.1.3 for Exotica 2: Pet Shop Simulator addresses several gameplay issues and quality-of-life improvements. Customer requests now include both male and female animals for otters and all age variants for several species. Animal satiety is properly maintained after feeding and release, and the breeding boost feed functions as intended. Employee behavior has been adjusted to improve habitat care by combining feeding and cleaning tasks, and previously implemented employee animal phobias have been removed. Additionally, electricity bills are less frequent and cheaper, and controller issues for employees are automatically resolved.

Tip: expand all for quick scanning.

Removed employee animal phobias. This system negatively affected feeding and cleaning behavior, and it has been fully disabled based on player feedback.
Changed cleaning and maintenance staff behavior: when an employee visits a habitat to feed animals, they also clean it. When they visit to clean, they also feed. This prevents habitats from being ignored when animal satiety is low.
Changed employee controller handling: if an employee loses their controller, it is now automatically reloaded.

We would also want to apologize for the misunderstanding. The game description mentioned two functions that were removed after the Demo version: "name your favorites, and keep long-term companions." These were never available in the full game. We updated the game description.
