Very minor update to Chinchilla. For some palomino chinchilla horses, some yellow was bleeding into the color. This was fixed and all ee chinchillas are now properly pure white again.

Tobiano has been aggressively optimized and is now effectively instant to generate. There are some side effects to this that you should know of:


Appearance Changes
-Tobiano markings have changed. If you regen your tobiano horses you will get new markings. This was an unavailable part of speeding it up. It should not be a dramatic change in appearance though. You can opt to not regenerate, and your old markings should stay, though I can't guarantee they will be unchanged forever.

-Please note! There is a good deal of variation at each white factor level. If you don't like that your horse gained or lost white/colored areas, please don't post complaints about it. Just get a new seed. You will be able to get an equivalent white-to-color ratio again. The range you can get for each WF level has not changed but the specific expression for each seed has.

-This overhaul changed when jewelbox happens in the generation process. This was an unintentional change to how the gene appears. I apologize for that. That said I strongly feel this is a big upgrade and really improves the look of the gene making it more realistic and more merle-like. The new generation keeps the same lacey edges while preserving more of the base color in the large solid areas.

Here is old jewelbox generation:


and new generation:




New Functionality:
-I noticed that our dynamic tobiano markings could not make the pseudo-solid-looking tobianos (the ones you can't tell are tobi by looking). I have added this functionality in. It is pretty rare but it is possible to get solids or very near solids now. Your very low white factor horses may generate with less white on the legs. You can purchase a new seed and get more leg white without touching the white factor.

A pseudo solid tobiano. They can have even less white than this.


-Tobiano mapping is now fully implemented and looking amazing. Mapping is roan edges around tobiano markings. Mapping can appear on any tobi at random but is much more common on horses with other kit mutations AND those with Kit Promoter. This includes horses with a single otherwise inactive copy of KP.

If you see any odd behavior please report it here, or just want to share your cool new generation or feedback? I look forward to your post. :x
