Upcoming changes to the horse's stamina (Patreon)
Content
The horses' stamina feature is going through some changes in the demo. From the next update onwards, if your horse runs out of long-term stamina (blue circle bar) during riding it will need to rest before it can be ridden again. The horse will recover automatically in a couple of minutes, in the meantime you can ride the other horses.
Currently the new stamina setting only affects free riding and competitions. You can still take a lesson on a horse even if it's resting. Short-term stamina (the jump energy bar) won't be affected.
The idea behind this change is to encourage the player to train and compete with different horses.
