The new companion interface is great this will make it so much easier to add the right companion

So, does anyone know how we add coats to our favourites?
I just tried to add one of the 'Latest Creations' to my favourites, but couldn't see how.

I just tried sorting with the new companions page and it's not working as I expect it should. When the page opens up there are 5 companions with a blue background (Cat-Sith, Cu-Sith, Dragon's Flame, Ghost Ball & Monster Egg). They never go away no matter how I try to sort. Is there a reason for this? If I'm searching for a jump companion, I don't want to see any of those 5.

At least two of my horses have lost companions they already had. I always give TBs a monsters egg and both my two I use to keep my competitions going have no companion., I gave a new one to one of them because I thought maybe I'd forgotten but the second has none either.

@Crystal Coven, this is intended. Compound items are at the top as some have multiple different bonuses

Can we have a way to remove the “new no companion” box that just wastes more of my screen space?

@Nalu93 Cat-Sith is only speed and Monster Egg is only gallop though so I'm not sure why they'd be included as having multiple bonuses?

That is what we've been told. Compound companions always at the top for this reason

I have the same problem.


Sorry for double post but I clicked post too fast

And while we’re at it, can we get rid of the new GIANT box on the “Rise of the Greek Gods” for Athena, Hephaestus and Hestia?? Because I really, really don’t need that taking up screen space, either.

I agree. It keeps drawing my attention away, especially with that blue "New" sign, that just sticks out in that yellowish color palette xd
Not mentioning the "Change" button; Just plain text, that is on my version to the right of the pet, not under it, so it's annoyingly asymmetric. Who would even ever want to change a pet?

I may be too dramatic here, but random add-ons, that no one asked for and are "affecting my comfort", + as you said, just adds clutter, are bothering me

Keep the new pet filtering, remove the box (or make it optional), and all is good.

I absolutely HATE the new companion box!! Seriously ugly to have "change" just randomly slapped next to the companions I already have. No thanks? Now can I JUST have the companion there? The huge add companion box is annoying too but I can only assume I'll get used to it.
The new way to sort them is cool but the rest of it is poorly done.

I searched for a hen to give to my unicorn, but it says nothing corosponds to this search. I know that they have hens here as pets because one of my normal horses has a hen for their pet. Are unicorns just not allowed to "have pets"? this is severely confusing to me.

No unicorns can have pets, most of mine do. Do you have a hen in stock? If you don't then it wouldn't show up.
If you do then it might be a bug. I'm sure we're going to be inundated with bugs for a while after this one.

Totally agree! This is ugly as heck and not needed! I now have to scroll half way down the page just to enter competitions.

At the very least reduce it down to just the top three showing like on the Wild's pages.

All the things that need improvement or updating and this ugly box taking up half the page appears.

My whole muscle memory for playing to my horse's page set up is now thrown out by the add companion box too but at least that is only half a scroll to show what I need on the page.

Wasn't the "breeding" box block on a horse's page previously collapsible, or automatically collapsed for divines that couldn't breed?

I usually have my "breeding" block at the very top right of my horse pages, but now I have to scroll down just a bit on the Nordic Divines to do their rides because that box, combined with their Worlds box, are both too long to fit the entirety of the rides box above the fold of the page.

We really do need further customizable options for the action blocks on our horse pages: the ability to collapse each action block, and the ability to customize each unique horse page, rather than the VIP "Customize the action blocks layout on my horse pages" applying to all the horse's on your account. With divines in particular I can think of several series that I would customize differently than others based on what actions you have to do for their perk and to account for the varying sizes their different divine action blocks are and the space they take up on the page

I am soooooo happy with the new companion layout! SO easy to search now and I don't have to pull up 17 windows to check the bonuses.
Probably the best update in the last couple years.
THANK YOU

I hate the BLUE "NEW" sign. It's like the red dot we get at the top of the page. It's distracting as heck!

I am not understanding. Can Divine's no longer have companions? I tried and tried to add a companion and it wouldn't light up and add it when I tried. I think they should have clarified a little better how to use this new update for companions and how it was going to benefit us.

So very happy about the new companion update! That will make giving them to horses so much easier, when you can see what bonus they give and not have to click on each one!

Still don't understand why we need a number for the Greek Divines. Un-needed addition in my opinion. Not something that interests me or would make me want to get them faster.

Divines can still get companions. By "light up", do you mean the blue outline? That just indicates the companions with variations within the item. All the divines that show up in the "choose" box should be ones you have

Thank you Legacy Ann. I will try again.

Oh for crying out loud!

More unnecessary annoying boxes on my horse's pages that get in the way of stuff that I actually use. The vast majority of my horses are never getting companions. I would rather be able to see my horse's daily history that have an empty box shouting at me the whole time (I assume the blue tag will go away at some point?).
While it's nice to be able to see what bonuses the companions offer you could have just added that information. All the other BMIs have it and they don't need a special box for, say, a Philosopher's Stone.

I never had a problem with adding a companion until now (slight exaggeration - I went to check the companion list through the old way and was confused when I couldn't see the companion category). And I dislike the blue boxes for the pinned companions. Why not just add a little tag/asterisk to point out that they are "families" instead of insisting they show up at the top of the page no matter what bonus you are looking for?

And as far as the numbering of the Greek Gods, why? Seriously, is it just bragging rights? "Ooh, I spent a ton of passes and got this horse faster than you did!" Okay, and..?
I don't need a list of other players pushing down all the buttons I actually use - missions and comps don't even show up on the page until I scroll down and the list of other people's divines is sorely irrelevant (and no, I wouldn't change my mind if I was the first player to get Apollo) and impractical since it hinders my ability to quickly care for and run comps with the gods. Putting them in comps is the main reason I touch those divines, and now you've made it more cumbersome to do so?

I am not liking the fact that the sorting option in the companion selection box is not working like it looks like it would. I wanting a companion that gives a bonus in gallop so I selected only gallop and still got companions with bonuses such as trot and dressage.

It is only useful that it tells you what bonuses it gives to the horse.

Not to mention it now has a companion with the word change beside it. That annoys me. It was nicer the other way.

Only part of this particular change I like was now you can see what bonus it gives while looking through the list of companions you have. But that was all that was needed. Not this new application process.
