Hey,

I was just wondering if the minion zoo could possibly be edited a little?

Specifically, I'd love to be able to search through like I would a shop. So to search for minions that are in there more than once, as personally I only want one of each in the zoo.

I'd also love it that when you remove a minion, the page didn't refresh back to page one of your zoo - making you go all the way back through to the page you were on. Obviously, if the above were implemented then this second one wouldn't be so much of an issue as it would be easier to search for duplicates.

Hope that makes sense!

These reasons are essentially why I stopped using the Minion Zoo at all. Support.

Still new to the Minion Zoo, but I figured it was going to work like the other collectibles; add one minion to the zoo and then you couldn't add duplicates. I'd like to see trophies like for the cards, plushies, and etc. I was a bit surprised that hasn't been done.

Dragons aren't monsters, only misunderstood, and I seek to prove it.

I totally agree with your suggestions!! I only want one of each of my minions in the minion zoo and it's so hard to remove multiples!! A revamp is desperately needed!!!!

Right now the Zoo is a worse gallery. Frankly it should be scrapped if it is not revamped massively.

afaik the zoo was planned to have a minion battle feature? I really hope that was scrapped because Subeta absolutely doesn't need a second battle feature. Not when the one we already have needs maintenance and TLC.

I wouldn't mind keeping the minion zoo as it is now: a minion collection. Yeah, it's a worse gallery right now, but it could be kind of cute.

Maybe let us sort them into fields, like we can do in pokemon games and various online pokemon click-n-hatch games? No minion redraws to remove the white bg for obvious reasons (there are over 3k minions on site :'|). A sort of fence/frame themed after the respective biome/subetan region would work fine, I think? With a little placquard, or signpost, or something we can use to name the "fields". Let users link to individual "fields". Maybe someone's pet collects goat-like minions. Or someone else has a Noah's ark theme going on, with 2 of each minion.

An option to prevent duplicates, or even an option to disable GA quickstocking to the minion zoo would also be nice. As would a way to remove/limit duplicates.

Even with all that, it's not really a feature I'm interested in. It never was. While I personally wouldn't be too sad to see it gone, I'm sure lots of users love collecting minions. So maybe focusing more on some way of letting people showcase, organize and add personal touches to their collections could be a good way to go about this. Or it could at least make it a little more interesting than just having a second, watered-down battle feature that nobody would really use that much once the hype dies down.

Yes, so much love for this suggestion! The minion zoo is just annoying to work with. It could be much more enticing with customisation options.

Yeh , I use mine as another gallery. When I came back from an extended absence, I moved all my minions from a gallery into the zoo. However, trying to organise them in the simplest of ways - as in only wanting to remove duplicates - is nigh on impossible sadly.

The code is already there in both the shops and the 'collections' - card, cake, pumpkin, plushie, beanbag, etc, so it shouldn't be too hard to put those together to make the zoo more user friendly I wouldn't have thought? Or hope at least. lol

I hope so too! Even just being able to organize, sort, and remove them more easily would be a good start to making the zoo easier to use.

I'm not sure if it would work, but a "show missing" option for the minion zoo could also be useful for those who are interested in collecting all the minions.

Oh my gosh, please do something with the Minion Zoo!

It works like a collection, but also doesn't. It's really frustrating! I'd love for it to be either more like the plushie collection, etc. Either that, or stop quickstocking to it like it is one!

I think we should be able to view the descriptions of minions in minion zoos. It would make browsing zoos so much more interesting!

I was just removing duplicates the other day and completely agree; so inconvenient!

I love the idea of being able to customize the order. Instead of a koi here and a koi there, I'd much prefer a way to group like minions together. Especially all the holiday minions would be nice together.

All the 'kins in one place!

Big up this Minion Zoo revamp suggestion! Being able to select multiple minions (and tbh stuff in the inventory and weapons in the armoury too) to remove somewhere/delete/vault etc in one go would be great! All the page reloads going screen by screen is kinda annoying when my internet slows down.

I would love to organize minions into sections. I also think a search function would be nice. It's hard to find a particular minion if you have a big zoo.

Yeh, my aim is to get one of every minion too. I did have them all in a gallery, but when I returned and found the zoo, I closed down the gallery. However, I'm currently reconsidering that, and wondering if I wouldn't be better off re-opening a gallery for them again.

This is the only reason I have them filed away in my gallery rather than in the zoo. So I definitely support this idea 100%!

I don't think it should be turned into a collection-only.

The Neurogalaxy system for Minion battling was easy and fun. I can see how this might be something for users who don't have tons of sP or study time . I think this should be implemented.

The current pet battle system works amazingly well, and the BAs worked on it a lot and it shows. It is super complex though. Minion battles can be a thing, too.

The whole page refresh thing has been Suggested multiple times and gotten a 'not right now' response. Presumably this will be addressed if and when the Zoo gets addressed again, if ever.

I would love to see a revamp of the minion zoo. I feel like the whole thing has just been forgotten and abandoned. I would like to be able to create sections for different types of minions, like a place for dog minions and another section for cat minions for example. I would like to be able to scroll over a minion like you can do with plushies and beanbags in collections to see its information as well as links to shop and Wl.

And I'm still waiting for various types achievements to get for minions in the zoo. mutters angrily about zookeeper achievement being applied to books instead of the minion zoo

Like a good neighbor, stay over there!

Please, can we get a few option for the minion zoo? I constantly forget that this is a thing that exists because I don't really use it as is..

I would use it if it was a bit more...feature-oriented? As is I keep my minions in my gallery because I cannot add non minion types in there and because the minion gallery allows you to add multiples and I know I would lose track bc theres no way to tell other then visual sorting.

  • could there be a feature that says 'do not allow duplicates to be added"? (or a stock number like in a shop?) . * theres no grouping features- maybe have categories just like galleries/shops? *being able to add a theme or background?
  • I dont think there needs to be a battle system but it would be cool to have achievements based on minion 'sets' collected and added to the zoo

Thank you to all my friends for being there =)
