Seasonal Backgrounds, Wardrobe and Item Trade Ins

Seasonal Backgrounds

It's taken a while, but seasonal backgrounds are now in the Credit Shop for 2 EVC each. They each come with 5 uses and the background will automatically change based on the current in-game season.

Wardrobe!

In your Inventory, there is now a link to the Wardrobe! This lets you preview any non-seasonal piece of tack, decoration or background before you purchase so that you can make a fully informed decision on what you'd like to buy. You can also preview all horse genes, similarly to the Custom Horse tool.

Item Trade Ins
The General Store now accepts Trade Ins! You can sell back any unwanted items for a portion of the price you purchased them for. Additionally, some items that you can acquire from other areas of the site can be traded in for a small amount.

Show Creation Update
Creating shows just got easier. You can now add additional rows to the show creation form, allowing you to create lots of different types and grades of shows at the same time. Just click on the small + at the end of the row to add a new row, and it will create all the shows you fill out in a single click.

Show Result Adjustments
The showing algorithm was changed recently to be more inclusive of non-specialty stats and while I still want to keep this, the percentage of non-specialty stats used in this algoritm has been reduced slightly. Please note however that this means horses with very low non-specialty stats no longer have an advantage and that is likely why your showing results have changed. Hopefully adjusting the non-specialty stats contribution should level the playing field rather than skew the favour towards high non-specialty stats however.

Adjustments
* The showing algorithm was changed recently to be more inclusive of non-specialty stats. While I still want to keep this, the percentage of non-specialty stats used in this algoritm has been reduced slightly. Please note however that this means horses with very low non-specialty stats no longer have an advantage and that is likely why your showing results have changed. Hopefully adjusting the non-specialty stats contribution should level the playing field rather than skew the favour towards either side.
* Foals will now be called "Filly" or "Colt" until they reach 1 year of age.
* There is now a popup confirmation for clearing your activity feed.
* The Bug Board will now redirect straight to the new Bug Zapper.
* The dropdown box for Withdraw or Deposit in the bank has been switched to a slightly easier Radio button system.

Bug Fixes
* When searching for a horse with a space in the name (e.g. Dutch Warmblood or Gypsy Vanner) the second page of results should no longer say the breed does not exist.

Amazing update! Thank you!	Posted by Hidden Shadow (#117942) 13th May 2018 at 12:01:37
I've just tried to create multiple shows at once, and it did not work. No shows were created, and I don't know what went wrong. Seems like a lovely update (or upgrade!) tho. :D	Posted by Atanza (#100437) 13th May 2018 at 14:02:45
awesome update! thank you! are we allowed to know what the showing formula has been adjusted to? as in, how many stats are "too many" and how many are "too few" for an ideal show horse?	Posted by coldbrew (#76258) 13th May 2018 at 14:21:25
Super awesome updates! Love it!	Posted by ⚛ atomic (#26520) 13th May 2018 at 15:10:28
TYSM, Abbey! I love the new Wardrobe and Seasonal Background features!	Posted by Dragonfly (#89253) 13th May 2018 at 15:58:52
This is so cool! :D	Posted by Ducky (#90651) 13th May 2018 at 15:59:02
Thanks Abbey! :)	Posted by Tall Oak Spare (#106105) 13th May 2018 at 16:19:38
Thank you for the update. I'm glad the adjustment to showing was made... I really hate the idea that it no longer would matter where a horse's stats were. If that's the case, then what's the point of even having different disciplines?	Posted by «» Only the Wind (#55431) 13th May 2018 at 17:11:09
Are we supposed to be able to sell items equipped to horses back to the General Store? All my equipped tack is showing up in the trade-in list.	Posted by timbergray (#52147) 13th May 2018 at 17:25:31
Love this update! Small correction needed with the wardrobe: when you first click on it in the inventory the button on the next page says "create a horse" when it should probably say something like "preview horse".	Posted by UlyssesBlue (#60734) 13th May 2018 at 23:41:12
The Trade Ins list has been fixed to no longer show equipped tack, and the wardrobe button has been changed.	Posted by Abbey 🌸 (#1) 15th May 2018 at 07:12:28
YAY THANK YOU The trade ins ARE SO FUN I just traded in enough for 60k, haha	Posted by Ducky (#90651) 23rd May 2018 at 19:17:17
