Game Idea I had

Im..Not sure where exactly to post this?So Ill stick it here I guess?
Anyway.I want to be a video game designer at somepoint and As I was playing Zoo Tycoon 2 the other day I got this idea. I want to make a Zoo Management Game in a similar vain to ZT2. As far as I know there hasnt really been any zoo games since it came out(and Im not counting the xbox zoo tycoon) and if they have I havent heard of em. Anyway I thought of this because as much as I love ZT2 its old(over a decade I just found out) and a bit outdated. So I want to create something thats like it but better(as in up to date and stable) I have quite a few ideas for things id like to see in a game like this plus inspiration from other games in the management genre Id like to see as well. I have a little notebook I carry around with me and write Ideas down. Heres a few to get a general idea :)

The animals have personality's and this will affect certain aspects of game-play. I also want to make building indoor exhibits and actual buildings a thing that is far easier than in ZT2. I want there to be total customization of everything much like what Ive seen of Planet Coaster(what little Ive seen of it anyway). I also want there to be a day/night feature. Ive noticed lights dont actually work In ZT2? So I want to make this possible :)

Theres more but these are for sure things I want to put in. The others are a bit iffy on how exactly I want to do it and need more fleshing out. Im willing to take suggestions though If there is something someone would like to see in a game like this? This game is a long way out though. I gotta learn to model and animate as well as more coding then what I currently know. This summer or sooner if I get more time Ill be trying my hand at modeling though :)

Im super excited for this even though its so far out and wont be a thing for who knows how long I just have so many ideas :D

Ok. And? Is that meant to prevent me from ever making a zoo game or something? I do not understand? I came up with this and it’s the first game idea I’ve ever had that had any sort of substance at the first thought if it..I’m not gonna just drop it like that..especially not since I filled several pages of a notebook with ideas...please explain more because I do not understand the purpose of the coughs you have put there.
