Re: Time Complete for Local Shows

Post by Jewels Training »

It would be super handy if the time completed for a local show was also displayed on the side status pop-up that says:

XP Earned
You've earned ?? experience points.

You can tell by the number of points earned what place your horse earned in the event, but if you want to see the time also, you have to stop and wait for the show to complete and display on your main screen. This is tedious, boring and slow, if you're trying to evaluate a young horse's potential.

I test all my foals for several turns worth of shows each to see if they are worth keeping / training, having realized that you can't judge a horse's worth by it's breeding or conformation report. This process is extremely time consuming. If the time was also displayed in that pop-up, it would save a ton of time and aggravation (for those times when I accidentally click to run the next show before the first show results pop up and the results were those I needed to see the times for.

It doesn't seem that much is being done about any of the suggestions that have been made over the years (instead effort is being placed into things like quarter marks and other graphical changes that don't help quality of life for the player at all.

If it's a matter of making money off the game, which is a necessary thing, how about making a lot of these suggestions available as upgrades for purchase, like you did with the number of turns, etc.

I'd pay money for the ability to better filter the searches on stud and sales, be able to see how many horses were in a barn, not just a percentage (this doesn't work if you have a mix of pregnant mares and non-pregnant mares), or a total of how many horses I actually own. There are a lot of suggestions people have made through the years that I would pay cash for if it was an upgrade.

I can tell you that I will NEVER pay cash for a quarter mark.

Please consider where you are putting your development efforts. I believe you can make this game a lot better and make yourself more money at the same time.

Just a thought

I'd also pay for this feature as I spend a ton of time doing local shows for testing purposes.

Ok, I'm just saying... we NEED more search filters and the local show time showing up on the pop-up! I just got so MAD at myself for accidentally clicking the local show button twice and not seeing the time... it could be fixed!
