Cracked an anvil that "pleased" and ended up with a +1 stat and a -1 stat I opened a monster zoo right before saving and quitting the game. . . Later when I returned and did the zoo the countdown stayed static and I received no reward Just killed Dredmor on GR / PD and didn't get the achievement *honorable mention for having lessor achievements like beating the game on easy mode complete when you beat it on a harder difficulty -
Other Zoo-related bugs experienced: - Walking around too long, preparing to attack the zoo messes with the counter => no reward - 2 Zoos on one level: You have to beat both before getting 1 reward (I haven't tested this with the hotfix patch applied)
It resets if you do anything of the following: Save and reload the game Change floors Enter a shop. This is quite well known, but so long as you do none of the above the counter will remain. It doesn't matter if you spent a day straight wandering as long as you don't do the above. The two zoos does still exist with the hotfix.
