Host-authoritative co-op as a patch on openzt (GPL-3.0). A friend joins by IP and receives the host's zoo; budget, date, pause, admission price and research are shared, and everything either player builds, sells, fences in (exhibits with their gate), lays as path, terraforms, adopts, hires, moves or fires appears on both copies; the host's animals and staff (positions, births, deaths) are mirrored once a second; each player sees the other's map cursor. Guests and animal needs are per copy. Tested with a two-copy lab (35 checks, 11 mutants) on the Complete Collection, zoo.exe 12.4.0.9; freeform only, scenarios untested; no two-PC test yet. Write-up in games/zoo-tycoon.
