Replace "not eating enough feed for energy notif"

Post by Nate »

Is it possible to replace this notif with one that signals when a horse is below BCS 4 or above BCS 6? That would make it more effective to keep on top of a horse's feed amounts and allow the player to easily identify which horses are struggling with their weight either way. With the addition of the mowing feature, players would not be inundated with horses that are chronically overweight when they are unable to do anything about it.
Signature? I don't need no stinkin' signature! Everybody knows who I am already!

Personally, if it were to be changed to the above or below weight, I'd like the option of toggling from over/under weight notification to the not eating enough notification. Right now, I prefer the not eating enough notification, but if I were showing instead of breeding, I might want to switch.

I actually agree with BlackOak. I tend to wait till I get the "not eating enough" notification to know when to check back in with my foals. Once they hit 5.5 to 6 months, I'll get the notification and will take pictures for their galleries (mostly for future reference and for color monitoring). I usually get about 4 to 5 foals per turn so it's easy to lose track of the ages on some of them, unless I actively try to remember all of them... which can be too much at times.

Please! I'd find this really useful.
That said, I also do use it to put foals on feed once they're weaned - so perhaps we need two notifications? One for 'x is underweight/overweight' and another for 'x has been weaned.' I'd find both very helpful.
