Hey Mark,

Found an odd bug on my end with races that have the <RACECATAG> of Claimer - the game is treating them as if they are Listed Races.

All other types are fine but claimers are now listed and being treated as such.

I think Mark changed it a couple of years ago so that you can no longer create Claimers and Sellers as feature races, and it now automatically converts them to Listed races. This is because some League players were creating schedules full of these races to ensure that they could pick up all of the best horses in the game.

That is very disappointing and wish was written in the manual, which clearly states that Claimers and Sellers are possible.

I’d prefer if this was changed back. The game shouldn’t be written to make it impossible to create claimers and sellers just because someone who plays the league exploits the game. There are countless people who don’t participate in the league that now have lesser capabilities because of it. The league shouldn’t dictate how the game is set up.

At the very least give players the option to be able to create sellers and claimers. Otherwise now I need to go redo 5 years of modding work to fix every instance of a claimer or seller in my schedules.

I agree. The vast majority of people who are playing this game are not taking part in the league, and even amongst league players I think it was only one or two that had been using this particular cheat. So, it's unfortunate that it resulted in features being removed for other players.

I'll double check that one and get back to you. Probably just needs to reexported on the editor.
