Horse Racing Manager News

Added
- Universal trade system, if you go to another stables manager profile, there is a new trade tab. You can now trade horses, cash, shares and breeding contracts against horses, cash, shares and breeding contracts. This is a super flexible trade system, where you can do big multi horse trades for example. This is an addition to the trade/buying systems we already have for now, we are thinking if we should still keep them or just move to this system fully. This system will better support more interesting trades/items in the future, like the breeding contract.
- The CPU will also offer you trades via this system
- Breeding contracts for stallions now in the game, if you want to be able to breed with all stallions in another stable, you can buy the right for this for either 5, 10, 15 years. You can also choose the amount of discount that you get on the breeding fee. In stable profile, there is also now a contract tab.

Then if you open the location (button besides it), you need to add to the coat folder the coats you have made (4 spritefiles) then this will replace the in-game sprite. In this folder there is also an example_coat, example_mane and example_tail (same as in Discord) that has template files[/p]
