F.A.Q. |
|
|
9-1 How to train my horse? Are there recommendations? |
|
|
All the players have access to the same initial information through the help (How to Play) available in the Tool menu.
There is no other help section on Newturf.com.
From there, every one can progress from his own analysis, his own tests, etc .
You can gather information on the forums which are meant to facilitate exchanges and help between the players.
You can also join a Team. It is usually an efficient way to learn quickly the tips and tricks of the game.

9-2 How to be hired as a Trainer? |
|
|
It is the stable owner who initiates the request for hiring a trainer.
Once a stable owner selects you to train one of his/her horses, you will be able to find his/her request by clicking on:
Menu item: "Training" >> Heading: "MANAGEMENT" >> Link: "Manage contracts"
From there you can either accept or reject his/her offer. If you are not satisfied with the offer, please refuse it and then send a private message to the owner in order to negotiate a better percentage.
To make yourself visible as a trainer to stable owners we invite you to go to the following page:
Menu item: "Training" >> Heading: "MANAGEMENT" >> Link: "Manage advertising"
and fill in the required information.
You can also post messages on the forums stating how successful you are in order to attract potential customers. If on the forums you noticed a player looking for a trainer, you can send a private message to the latter to propose your service. |

9-3 Can I set up an automatic daily training? |
|
|
Yes it is possible.
While in the training program, you can select the option to repeat the training daily. The same program will be repeated automatically every day at random hours.
|
|
|
9-4 The time performances do not improve while this horse has not raced for the past 6 days (same jockey strategy than 6 days ago) and I did not stop training him with a focus on speed and stamina where he got excellent results! It is too much a game of chance!
The speed performance stays the same after 6 days of training. What is the point of entering a horse if one can not know that he his improving his performances?
|
|
|
A horse who is trained regularly progresses globally with the exception of obedience that evolves only when the horse takes part to races.
You are referring to a game of chance most probably because of a lack of obedience. When obedience is poor, overall performances are not stable. Thus even after a 6-day training program where he has improved speed, stamina and flexibility, you may not see the results simply because he does not feel much like racing. It can be that the following day you get the opposite result.
So train the horse and enter him to races to better control what you perceive as chance (but actually it is not chance).

9-5 What does an orange square in a horse characteristic/ability mean ? |
|
|
It means that the horse is at his maximum for the given characteristic.
This limit is part of his genetic code. It is not possible to get an extra square, no matter how fast or often the horse gets the squares.
|
|
|
9-6 Can a horse lose a square in one of his characteristics/abilities because of the training? |
|
|
Yes it is possible except in the case of a black square (please refer to the following question).
When the training mark is red (regression) in one of the characteristics, the horse can loose a square.
Important : Even with a good training a horse can still loose a square.
A training may translate in a regression in one of the characteristics : If the speed increases by 30 and the Stamina reduces by 10, training results are the same than when both the speed and the stamina raise by 10. The training results are the addition of the variations for each of the characteristics.
|
|
|
9-7 Can a horse loose a black square?
|
|
|
Once a horse gets a black square for a given characteristic, it can not regress. Therefore it can not loose this black square.
|
|
|
9-8 Does a horse trained “manually” progress faster than with the automatic training program?
|
|
|
No there is no fundamental difference between manual training and automatic training: the results are similar for a given set of parameters.
Nevertheless, when using the manual training, you can fine-tune the parameters daily and, over a period of few days, you can set up a training program that is more precise than the automatic one.
|
|
|
9-9 Does Newturf automatic training work on two performances (for example speed and stamina only) or on three performances (speed, stamina and flexibility)? Does Newturf training program take into account an orange square for a given performance?
|
|
|
Newturf automatic training program works the three performances in a fair and consistent way, and does not take into account black squares that may be granted.
|

|
