Hello everyone and happy start of the week! Today's update is a reminder about our ingot sale and a short list of bug fixes. As a little gift everyone who has been active since September 8th has been given a few goodies to celebrate our progress so far. :) 

✨ Reminder: Ingot Sale

As a reminder you have until tomorrow, September 16th at midnight EST to take advantage of both the ingot and item sale! Ingots are on sale for up to 35% off. Also in the ingot store are multiple package options to bulk buy and save on various items like Spectral Tokens, Lattes, Breeders Promise, and more! Additionally, both Magic and Spectral tokens are for sale as singles in the General Store. All profits from the ingot sale go toward paying for development. 

✍️ Upcoming Plans

A huge thank you to everyone who has come back to support HoFa. It is so wonderful to see all of our old and new players enjoying the game! Many questions continue to circulate about what is happening and our plans for fixes, development, and a few other topics. To keep everyone on the same page below are a few common questions.

Q: When will lag be fixed?

A: I am working to get quotes from several devs and dev agencies on this issue. This happens due to slow database queries and has been logged on the back end showing where this issue specifically is. This may require a full recode of the query and/or database which means the speed in which this can be fixed depends on how much money we can put toward the issue itself. The goal here is to fully fix the root cause of this issue so when HoFa has even more horses and players, no lag will be present then as well. This is our #1 goal  pertaining to lag at the moment.

Q: There's several bugs for campaigns. When will those be fixed?

A: I am working to get these fixed ideally in the next few weeks. The quicker the better on this so we will be paying a dev to fix this asap. This is at the top of the bug list right now.

Q: Old items weren’t pushed live over the summer. When will we see seasonal items?

A: We will be making seasonal items live during their season and returning to the previous release schedule starting with fall equinox for returning items and for winter solstice for new ones.

Q: Will you be adding/changing xyz feature/thing?

A: We don't have a complete list of any promised planned changes, features to add, or specific schedules due to having just jumped back in. When anything is suggested we keep that in mind and will plan accordingly. Ex. Entering shows with EA1/EA2 updates
