Title: Bells & Whistles - What would you like to see?
Post by: Rhianon on Sep 02, 2026, 04:21 AM
As you're clicking through and playing the game, if you think of something that would benifit all of us, post it here for me to consider adding.

Things already on the list:

Leaderboards! Built it today!

I think semi-regular fun events, even if they're small, help boost activity and engage with players <3

I'm down, let me see what I can brainstorm. If you've got any ideas, shoot them over to me, Morrigan or Merry

If logged in, default to dashboard on the main sites?

Also a login button on the main site ? I might be missing that.

The "Join" button now says "Join or Login" and links to the main forum page. The very simple redirect is kicking my ass, and I don't know why, but I'm working on it. (Why is it always the simple stuff?)

Maybe a way to expand the real estate, perhaps using the AMI? I'm not sure how long 20 stalls/1 barn/15 acres will last  ;)

There is a link on your dashboard that says "My Real Estate." You can purchase more there!

There's also an AMI purchase that gives you $7500 for real estate.

You can buy more stalls for your orginal barn shell, up to 100 stalls per shell. Go to your dashboard and then to "My Real Estate" to make your purchases. No need to sell what you have; just upgrade it.

Unless I'm missing it, an easy reference to see how much horse capacity I have left. Something like "50 / 75 stalls are taken" being displayed someplace!

You can find that information now on view_all.php and real_estate.php :)

Whoo, thank you for the easy reference for horse numbers!

Also it would be cool if there was a "Your Results" button someplace that gives you an easy references of all your horses' recent placings and earnings without having to go to their individual pages to see how they're doing.

Like:

Date | Horse 1 | Western Show #5 | Western Pleasure | 1st | $50
Date | Horse 2 | Dressage Show #3 | Grand Prix | 3rd | $10

etc

there is now a dropdown in the header of the table that displays transactions - so you can see different ones.

Thanks for the ability to sell back facilities - it would help to know how much real estate credit I have before I build a ginormous barn and find my bank account $0.00 because I missed the mark. ;)

I was thinking something with a longer history, like maybe being able to see your horses' results by the month. But if that's too complex, the week at a glance would be awesome!

Not too complex; it's just that my autism is making me want to understand it exactly before I code it!

I love the results page, thank you!

I love the market too... I was wondering if there could be a player market, where we can list horses for sale and players can request to buy them? It would be nice to be able to list broodmares available for breeding that way too, so you don't have to make a special post on the forum to advertise them.

Maybe it could work like you can request one of the mare's available years and send in a form the mare owner can approve before the foal is registered? It could work the same for breeding to stallions too theoretically--I know there's a stallion directory but I didn't see a way to actually buy a breeding unless I'm blind lol.

I don't want to make the game so automated that there is no interaction between players; then we lose the sense of community.
That being said, I did add a way to PM stallion owners right from the stallion advertisement page.

I'm still contemplating the other items. :)
