[0.8.1] - 2025-12-31
Added
- New experimental race engine moved to main branch to stop blocking releases (work on this will continue next week, this is mostly unchanged from the experimental branch)
- New training system, fully overhauls how training works. You now create weekly schedules, then create a yearly schedule with these weekly programmes, you then assign a horse to a yearly schedule
- Training programmes can be exported/imported and shared with friends
- New nutrition system with recipes, where you can create recipes from different hays, grains and supplements and then assign these to horses. These effect the effectiveness of training.
- New care system, works in similar way to nutrition where you can create a care recipe and then assign this to a horse
- Colors for good, bad stuff now implemented around game (these exposed in the theme settings also)
- Stars can also now be colored, and are on default yellow

Fixed
- When other children went to school, player would get notifications from their trait gains
- Made it for now where the tracks can’t go reverse

- Reverted time scale for fast forwarding from 10 back to 4, for some computers the higher rate would break the visuals of the scene
