Auto Shipping?

Post by Ronnie Dee »

I was just looking at my Year-54 Week-8 Day-5 (8pm) entries. I noticed that only 1 of my horses was being shipped to the race track for its upcoming race. The other horses are still at their farms. I use 3 days as the Auto Ship parameter. The only horse that is being shipped is this one. Why is this horse the only being shipped?

Is everyone else at farms much closer to the tracks they will be racing?

I’m thinking the same thing Gavin said, if they haven’t shipped by later tonight though then you have a problem. If you want to be safe you can just ship them on your own.

Auto Shipping is designed to have the horse arrive X days before the race. Horses that are closer, ship later.

The Shipping FAQs seem to be out of date:
As a SIMperior Player, you can go to your profile and set up Auto Shipping. You can set how many days before the race you want your horses to ship. Horses are shipped based on their post time, so if you set 1 day before post time, the horse will ship almost exactly 24 hours before post time. If you select 2 days, it will be 48 hours before post time, etc.
I now have a vague recollection of an update regarding auto-shipping. Does anyone know the Forum link regarding this update?
