Q: What is the difference between the Physical, Phantom, and Off movement settings?
A: The Physical Movement Setting (which is supposed to be listed as Normal) uses a semi physical movement that the physics is only on when the horse moves and off when standing still this is to reduce collisions and lag. The Phantom Movement Setting allows the horse to move in a phantom state completely eliminating collisions all together.
WARNING THE HORSE WILL BE ABLE TO GO THROUGH WALLS, AND FENCES. PLEASE SET THE RANGE APPROPRIATELY
The Off Movement Setting turns off the movement completely but still allows the animations and sounds to function.

Q: How will we know the horses are ill? When should we use the healing kits?

A: No these breedables will not fight or harm each other in any way.
Q: Some horses are dropping badly in happiness and some are down to less then 10%. is that normal and will they recover without riding and salt lick?
A: When the horses are under age 7 there happiness does not effect anything, they will still eat and do everything else horses should do. When they reach age 7 which is breedable age then happiness will play a factor in breeding. In order to get happiness up you will have to ride them, give them sugar cubes or put a salt lick out for them.
Q: What are the Gem eyes on the Horses?
A: There will be Gem eyes but you will only find out what these are through breeding.

A: The horses have one hidden trait and one shown trait.
Q: What, if any, are the breeds that are not the starter breeder packs that we have to work to breed for?
A: We will not tell you what the “hidden” breeds are because that would take all the fun out of it.
Q: When we buy or trade horses do we need to box them before we do this?
A: No you do not. The horses may be bought or traded without boxing.
Q: Can I pick them up in inventory without hurting them?
A: Horses can be taken into inventory without hurting them but their hunger will rise in your inventory. So be sure to take them out of inventory before they become hungry enough to get sick.
Q: What does it mean when my horse has a horseshoe over its head?
A: The horseshoe over its head has to do with the loading of animations. It is nothing to worry about and once the horse continues with its next animation the horseshoe disappears.
Q: Would adding extra scripts to the horses break them?
A: You cannot add extra scripts to the horses as they are no modify. However, editing the contents of the horse will break them.
Q: I just rezzed my horse and it’s all wonky, it’s sleeping!

Q: Why do the horses legs and heads turn into spheres when they move?
A: This is due to the sculpts loading
