Some Ideas

Post by Chickbirdlady11 »

Hi!

So I came up with some ideas for this game and I would like to see what everyone thinks of them!

1. Photos taken automatically.
This would help so much! Then we don’t have to take photos of our 100+ horses.

2. Getting notifications when we finish a course. I have no idea how many times I have finished a course, didn’t realize and the next day found out and realized that I could have started so many courses!

3. Pedigree.
It would be so great if the pedigree not only included the horses dam and sire but theirs as well!

4. Polo! This would be a super cool addition to the game!

5. Transfer PT between accounts. Sometimes I would really like to transfer my PT between my acc, but I can’t! This would be incredibly helpful.

6. Transfer money between accounts. It would be sooo helpful if we could do this. The only way to do it know is to transfer horses, but this would be so good.

Please let me know your thoughts on this!

I really wish photos were taken yearly! That is my biggest thing!

1) Not everybody wants photos taken regularly. It might be beneficial to some, not so much to others. Allowing us to choose gives all of us the opportunity to save the images we want. Besides, if photos are taken automatically, would it be yearly? That would put a massive amount of additional data on the servers. Would it be whole horse or just the head? Would it be centered? Off center? There are a few too many options to set something like this up. Also, when we load the image of the horse into the gallery for us to save, we see the image as it appears on our screen, and not the one that might be seen by another person on their screen. It might be nice to have such an option, certainly, but I think there are too many variables. I'd certainly like it. And yet, the variables that could be offered, assuming that we could set up the options ourselves, probably wouldn't have enough there for what I'd want: Newborn, yearling, fifth year and every five years thereafter... until 15 years. Then no more, unless said horse reaches 25 years, then again, every five years thereafter.
Would be nice, but there are plenty of other things that should take precedence.

2) Yeah. It certainly would be handy to get notifications when those skills complete. :D

3) The pedigree does show this. Find a horse, any horse. Click that pedigree tab. Now click the box OR that little plus sign of the horse you want to expand. Wait for a few seconds. Scroll right if needed.
Horses that don't have those little pluses are AC foundation stock (they have no ancestors). Also, if you click on the name of a horse in that pedigree, it will take you instead, to that horse, rather than opening the lineage.

4) There have been many suggestions to add more disciplines to the game. Although we may have to wait for more additions until later. When? Exactly? :) I simply don't know. But I have a number of ideas as well.

5) Nope. Although I'd think this is a handy thing to implement and although at times even I want this, I do NOT support it. This opens too many chances of cheating, among other things. Plus, it is relatively easy to earn the PT needed. Our admins have told us that this won't be happening.

6) Yes. This certainly would be helpful. Perhaps one day admin will write this into the game. There are many different things this could be beneficial for. The one that I'd like to use it for, is to set up a 'paid invitational' for competitions. Instead of sending horses back and forth, it'd be much smoother to just forward the money. Many, many less steps.

The pedigree already shows the Dam and Sire's parents if you click on them
