I've had my homebred stud in the breeding barn for 3+ seasons now, and I have been noticing a strange trend in the foals being thrown, where all of them have max stamina bar. He's a transfer from a different file, but was a solid miler. The mares he has been bred have a wide range, but none are over 1.2f runners (both ideal distance and distance ran). However most of these foals are ending up in the 1.4-2m preferred distance, and I'm a bit lost to as why, since the ideal distances should put them between 7-1.2f.
Furthermore, in this specific file I'm running currently, there is a huge absence of runners in the 7-1.2f distances, across the board in both age and distance. Most of the stakes (even the graded) are completely barren in those distances as well. Is this a bug in breeding, with how stamina is being calculated? I've never experienced this amount long distance runners being thrown outside of the ideal distances, and I'm beginning to wonder if its happening to the other AI stables, causing the lack of entries in the races.
my current broodmare distances (they all have run/won at least 5 races at that distance, so its pretty spot on)
I know breeding is a bit all over the place right now, but this is a very noticeable, specific trend I am seeing since I started this file. Is anyone else experiencing something similar?
