What bothers me is the fact that in this great challange, there are only two spaces for prizes from collecting the horseshoes but there always used to be three. One for the BMI, one for the lottery tickets and another one for a TC/HOP promotion 'buy X get Xth for free'. However when I logged in today, I realized it only has two of these windows there. Has anyone thought about why this might be? Does this mean there there won't be another lottery or another 'divine in TC/HOP' promotion? Because I've been collecting the HOPs and was hoping to sell them when the promo comes but now I don't know default smiley :( Or, is it just me becaus I haven't unlocked the third thingy yet? I thought it might caused it but then there were always three of those at the start even if you didn't unlock them yet, so why and how? default smiley (o)

Having drafts behave like regular horses and ponies would be a bit difficult. They'd need their own special skills, tack and competitions. Howrse said a few years ago that they'd be a game within the game. If they'd adding them to the game, they might be for ECs and behave like calves or something.

You need at least 180 horseshoes to see anything in the HOP perk box.

If you're on a PC, hover your mouse over each of the boxes and it'll tell you how many you need to get to the next level.

That's not what I mean. There were always three boxes but now there are only two. I was wondering why that is.

You aren't seeing the box for lottery tickets, correct? If so it's normal, you'll have to earn 30 horseshoes to see it.

I haven't heard anything about new unicorn looks...since we just got new horse coats I wouldn't think they'd be changing them again.

I simply would like a page # on here where I can see all the new coats to the unicorns.

There are no new coats though...just the ones we just got like a month or so ago. You can view any breed of uni and how it looks through the sales.

And every single horse on the game has them apart from GAs and the like.
They are not uncommon and don't need any special searching. Looking at any of your own horses will do, as well filtering for any breed in the sales ^.^

Do you mean the time in August when we could buy a unicorn that had not existed on the game until then?

The next phase
To be released mid October

Equestrian center prestige changes:
~A comfort rating indicates box size, type of bedding, fodder, treats, and available equipment. This rating impacts center prestige.
~The occupancy rate is taken into account in prestige calculation.
~Boarders' prestige is revised in order to take the best skill of each boarder into account.
~Lessons are no longer taken into account in general prestige. Lesson pricing directly depends on boarders' prestige.

Box changes:
~Cleanliness is removed.
~Bedding quantity impacts morale loss and energy recovery when sending a horse to his box.
~Box quality impacts morale and energy recovery when a horse wakes up.
~The boxes and boarders pages are merged.
~Boarding fees changes
~~Boarding fees range from 20 to 200 Equus.
~Centers can offer equipment and food to boarders.
~Center managers can pick a minimum boarding duration, from 3 to 30 days.

Meadow page changes:
~Meadow-related information are displayed in a clearer fashion.
~You can now filter your meadows according to land surface, fertility, and use (fallow, pasture, or crops)
~You can now purchase meadows from the meadows page.
~Equestrian center office changes
~It is back and now integrates the changes made to center management
~Some elements (forum configuration, admin tab) have been moved.
~The center registry is added to this page.

Removal of jobs:
~Bedding will be changed automatically so, grooms are no longer needed.
~Instead of saddlers, equestrian centers can provide equipment to boarders, if they have some available.
~The riding instructor no longer impacts the lesson fee, which now only depends from boarders' prestige.
~A privilege that gives Equus is provided during the tutorial in order to help new players.

What's next...
Here is an overview of what we are planning next. We will provide further details on each feature as the release date approaches:
~The competition management page is updated: competition related info is easier to find and edit.
~Inventories, breeder storage, and equestrian center storage are merged.
~You pick a location for your equestrian center: the beach, the mountain, or the forest. This location defines the main resource you can obtain (sand, iron or wood).
~Production cycles are added to allow harvests, crafting, and product selling.
~Rides are easier to manage.
~You can now add improvements to your structures in order to improve their quality or output.
~Lessons are now missions. Missions allow the horse to receive experience. Howrse owners receive Equus from them, and equestrian centers receive resources.
~A tutorial is available when setting up equestrian centers.
~Workhorses are added to the game.
~And maybe other features to be added in the meantime.

There is a page that this is from, the link is available in the EC Renovations Timeline topic on Howrse UK. I would assume that this will go across all servers.

And the sales gives you one.
Or if looking at them one by one is too much, look in the Howrse Blog.
