Now that the bulk of the new layout updates are in it is time to start addressing all the little things that need polished up. I am going to start with usability issues. Those are things that the game is displaying is such a way that they are difficult to use. Please only report display issues NOT feature requests.

Example of a display issue: "The pasture info is squished up and hard to read". or "On mobile the graying out to show already bred mares does not work"

Example of a Feature Request: "Add a check box to move horses in the pasture faster"

The display issues are being addressed right now. Feature requests need to be made on weekend wishes posts. I am going to start with things that are hard to use. After I knock some of those out, then we can get to things that look awkward.

How to post a constructive comment: Clearly explain the issue you are experiencing and what page it is happening on. Let me know if this happens on narrow mode, wide mode or both. Give a suggestion on how it can be improved or what would make it more usable.

Thank you!

There is a viewing issue on the Public Stable Page. The portion that shows the member information is not displaying properly. Using Chrome Version 56.0.2924.87 on my home PC.
If I zoom out to about 50% the layout looks correct, but the font is too small to really read.

Table borders around sections of the search page bleed over into the twitter feed. Took a screen grab; not sure how to add it onto here.

Would love to have barns and pastures able to be given a category and/or sorted into columns - mine are pretty jumbled to look at right now.

"Would love to have barns and pastures..." That's a feature request ;)

I will look into the search though.

Minor viewing issue in buddy chat - the "bell" for new messages stays behind the page header.

I've been having minor issues with text boxes, mainly the box for naming horses in the control panel. It's almost completely on the edge of the left hand side of the screen when mobile, and often times hard to scroll or select all the way at the front of a name because of that. So say I have my pasture foals in my primary barn for testing and then sorting, and after testing, my altered foals get renamed Z1234567, testing gets turned off, and they get shipped off to the show barn. The issue I find I have often is while trying to place or slide my mobile cursor all the way to the left of the text box to insert my "Z" results in clicking the rename button a few times before getting the right momentum from my fingers to slide the cursor all the way to the left. If there were even just the slightest bit more of a margin on that side, that may just do the trick. No idea of I'm making sense here as it's nearly midnight and I've pulled a couple double shifts already this week lol.

Kat8805 you lost me a bit there. You are having to scroll inside a name field? Narrow or wide screen mode?

Kat8805 · Mar 16, 2017 6:35 PM

No, not scrolling in the name field, but sliding the cursor over to the beginning of a horse's ID (mostly foals or newly created horses that I'm doing this on) and because the front of the name field is so close to the left hand side of the screen, I often have to try a few times to get the cursor there to add my text. I've been using mostly narrow screen, as my keyboard tends to take over the screen in wide mode, so I cannot see what I've typed. It's a regular old mess over here lol.

Ammit · Mar 16, 2017 6:50 PM

I think I got it. You are tapping in the name field to select it, then adjusting the cursor location get to the start of the name field. I will see what I can do. :D

Kat8805 · Mar 17, 2017 1:18 PM

Yes! It also seems to be an issue when clicking the flag for manual showing. Granted, zooming in can make either easier, but if a minimally larger margin is possible without maximum effort, it would be greatly appreciated :D

Not sure if these are what you are looking for or not.

1) when on my mobile phone (iPhone 6S) I cannot see the quick links above the text box when wanting to post something on the forum (bold, italic,underscore etc) the boxes are there but no little pic and when I press on them they don't work. Using safari, bu I use safari on my iPad (currently typing this) and can see and press on them.

2) when I search for horses in public auction I can no longer bid on them from their info page like I used to be, and I find it really hard when there are 2710 horses in auction to find the one I was looking for without using the search.

Ammit · Mar 19, 2017 5:34 AM

@Wyanawah auction only shows when the auction is open.

WindDancer · Mar 29, 2017 4:33 AM

Do you want to know about forum display issues too or just in-game?

Ammit · Mar 29, 2017 4:44 AM

I know there is an issue with the forum profile pages. You can post other stuff, but I may or may not be able to do anything about it :)

Dawnsong · Mar 29, 2017 3:21 PM

I'm not sure about the profile pages but when I open posts with pictures of horses for sale or breeding their heads are always cut off on narrow view. They fit in wide view though. I have an iPhone 6s so I don't know if anyone else has that issue. Thank you so much for all the hard work you do! We all really appreciate it very much.

Ammit · Mar 30, 2017 4:22 AM

Nothing I can do about that. :D Can't make your phone any wider.

Helia · Apr 28, 2017 11:19 AM

In Buddy Chat on mobile (I use Safari on an iPhone 5s), the button for "Send" is behind the link for "Return to Lobby" - I can't click send and keep returning to the lobby without meaning to.

(Also, the images for HTML links and such aren't showing up here on mobile, so I can't figure out how to make that show as an image rather than a link. Sorry.)

Ammit · May 1, 2017 8:10 AM

@Hilo does my update fix it for you?

Helia · May 1, 2017 11:16 AM

Thanks @Ammit! Much better now.
