horse type suggestion

[John Cutshall]

would it be possible to select the horse type when you breed a foal? rather than waiting until they turn yearlings and going back through all of them to set the type.

just a suggestion

I would love that! Modifying the type when they become yearlings is my least favorite chore of the new year.

[John Cutshall]

oh good, i thought it was just me being lazy and not wanting to do it

[Lisa Strummer]

I'll third that.

[Patrick O'Malley]

Yeah fourth! And also, to stretch the laziness even further, it would be nice if the foal inherited its type from the dam.

That IS lazy! I don't think I'd like that, personally, just because sometimes the mare produces something different. Plus, Horse Type is Simperior, so I don't know how you'd make it inheritable, since mares change hands between people, some of whom aren't Simperior subscribers.

[Abe Froman]

I guess im in the minority, but it is really that hard to just change the type when they are yearlings, and you are either galloping or working them?

It was at most a half-serious suggestion anyway, but if you're going to set it at once it might as well be preset with the mares type as most offspring are similar. Simperior doesnt really play into it as non-simperior folks don't see the horse type anyway, and currently the type sticks even if a horse passes through non-simperior hands.

But this isn't a big thing, really.
