[b]Welcome to the latest update notes for Rival Stars Horse Racing: Desktop Edition![/b] In this round of notes, we cover exciting changes made to Horse Stats and how they are passed down to foals, showcase some exciting new additions to the horse creator menu, as well as introduce and in game Breeding Guide. Let’s jump into it. [h2]Stats and Inheritance: [/h2] Exciting News! Stat Grading is now available with the latest update, version 1.21! Horses are now assigned letter grades (ranging from D for ordinary to A+ for the pinnacle of perfection) to signify their excellence in each stat. You can view these from your usual stat screen. In 1.21, we've fine-tuned the process of foal stat inheritance, making it less random and increasing the likelihood of a foal having stats averaging those of its parents. - For instance, if the mare has “A+” Speed and the stud has “B” Speed, the foal is likely to have “A” Speed. However, if a foal is born at a higher grade than its parents, its stats won't be as high. You can swap between letter and numbered stats on any screen stats are available.
