[UPDATED] Devs' Corner: April 2024

Our developers have something to tell you! Every three (3) weeks, our devs will provide you with information about their work in the “Dev’s Corner.”

This publication is a way of keeping everyone updated on what’s happening with the game. We invite you to discuss and leave your feedback for each of the publications.

Note: All posts must adhere to the forum guidelines and be constructively made.

Take a look at our very first Devs' Corner publication!

Warm wishes,

The Howrse Team

I might be the only one who farms my horses/divines on mobile lol, but has anyone else been experiencing this weird bug for the Reindeer where when you tap on their comp button, the button disappears? And you have to tap on another tab, say the care tab, then back to the comp tab for the button to reappear? It happens every time I tap on the button. I don't use the actual app, I use the mobile site via my phone's browser (it looks the exact same). But, it's a little annoying. I think it was a consequence of the last update, because it started happening right after. But, I was just curious before I go to contact us.

Been experiencing the same bug with my Reindeers on mobile. It's definitely annoying and I wasn't sure what to do about it

I wanted to jump on and update my thoughts on the last dev update. I was rather scathing about the luck item update. I am still a little concerned about the likelihood of it being used as a money grab at times. However, the ease of being able to calculate prices in advance has won me over quite a bit. Especially as it is a sever wide price. So, one person sharing in the 'luck item' topic means the entire server can calculate the price.

Sorry. Really should have added the context being posting.

Would it be possible to add a feature that allows us to disable banners for the offers we aren't interested in? It's fine when there are only a few, but when there are this many offers, it gets really tedious having to go through the tabs just to find the one you are after.

I realize this is a little late but,

I’ve been having the same Reindeer bug on mobile. I press the comp button and it disappears.

One day I'd like to see a way to sell or trade companions and tack packs. I have so many companions and tack pieces in my inventory that I won't use and can't give away.

I think that would be a good change.

They could give us an option to turn the banners for offers off, which would be separate from events. Almost like turning animations on and off, as an example. The offers are always in the BM anyway, so no harm in being able to turn them on and off at will. Because yeah, I agree.

Would also love it if we could just get a whole page for events. They could stick it under the breeding farm or community tab. I'm honestly surprised we've never gotten one considering promos have been a large part of the game for years and years now.

Always clear your device cache especially if an update has happened. If the issue still exists:

The answer is to take it to Contact Us, preferably with a screenshot showing what happens. They are the only ones who can deal with things like this and much better to take it straight to them than wait for an Admin to check this page then report to the dev team without any evidence.

Hello! On the message for the New Mobile Update (finally thank you thank you we can choose training length instead of 2H) it says the Training Update is "now" implemented, and for everyone.
My app is up to date (according to the Play Store) but I can't find where to turn it on/off? I assumed it would be over a horse's Training Tab (like it is for competitons) or in our Account Settings (like on browser versions) but I don't see it in neither place?
Is it elsewhere or is it not coming today ^^' ....

Honestly, I never use the mobile app to take care of my horses because of that forced 2 hour training thing. That makes training horses absolutely inefficient and impossible. So is that now optional on training, or did they add it to forest/mountain/beach rides as well? That would be just terrible..

It isn't well written. If you look at the very first line, though, it indicates that this is a future upgrade. They really should have used, ' It will be, ' not 'It is now.'

I bought a coat of wandering horse Typhon today at a price of 190 passes.

The latest announcement stated that coats of wandering horses now cost 100 passes instead of 190.

Is it possible to get a refund of 90 passes for todays purchase?

You should probably send in a ticket to Contact Us for that.
Send a screenshot of your pass history showing the amount charged, as well as the time you purchased it to show it was done after the update went through.

Yay Arion joined the Mythological horses finally! Been saying he needs to be part of them. I wish they would add Harlequin and Archimedes now too, since those two are still unclassified.

Did they add a bunch of new Community Wanderers...? I checked the collection and several of those definitely did not exist on the game prior to this. default smiley (o) I had the full collection for Animated coats and none of them were there.

Those are the ones for the upcoming event on Thursday.

@Rogin for Harlqeuin they better not. Harlequin belongs to the Commedia dell'Arte and not to mythology.

Either make a series with Italian masks (Colombina, Doctor Balanzone, Pulcinella...) or keep it as it is please. default smiley (y)

Archimedes wouldn't fit in with mythology either, he was a mathematician. I suppose they could do one based of historic scientists...?

Please disregard my prior reply to you. The change is now in full effect.

@Crookedstar915 'important historical figures' would also work, or 'minds that changed the world' or similar if we don't want to make them too close to the Wanderers.

Definitely not myths.

No it bothers me that there is no category for them. I think they need added in somewhere. I understand that they are not technically mythological, but that is the one category of Divines that is basically "Other".

How many horses can you have in total?

There is no limit, you can have as many horses on your account as you like. default smiley :)

That said, for the general ranking score only the top (in skills) 10,000 are counted, and when you get resources from horse care (equus from comps, droppings, AP etc). only the first 1000 horses you care for in a day will receive them. This resets daily though, so the next day you can start over.
