No confirmed fix yet. Players suggest: if you have too many problems in the second competition you can enable auto-jump, but beware that your pace still has to be right!
The problem
Love the game demo! I was a fan of Trotterville when I was a kid and this game is hitting all the nostalgia buttons and feels even better than the original! One thing I struggle with though is the jumping. Any tips on how to time it? Especially the high jumps?
What players suggest
I use the indicators in training... you will see that you have to jump from further away if the horse is faster, but some jumps require a slower canter to clear the height. if you have too many problems in the second competition you can enable auto-jump, but beware that your pace still has to be right! slower for the higher jumps, faster for the wide water jump... and of course don't be too slow…
Suggested fix (unconfirmed): Upgrade your stable so you have two or more groups of horses. Then, switch the horses between groups using the "manage" option for each horse.
Suggested fix (unconfirmed): Separate mares and stallions into different stable groups by using the "Manage" button or by clicking and dragging the horses. Alternatively, geld your stallions.
