How convenient/awesome would it be to be able to schedule withdrawels from your bank account?!! Have to pay someone 50mill a week to use their shows? Schedule it for every monday at 10am! Want to pay someone in bulk for tickets and you reserved them for 3 months, schedule it! :D Trainer trains your animals, SCHEDULE IT!! lol sorry, I got excited aha

Ooh this is an interesting idea! I wonder if it is something that could be done.. cause not sure how you'd even begin to code that into the game lol

I think this sounds great in theory, but think about if you have something unexpectedly come up and you can't get on for a month or maybe even more, you're not using shows, trainer, etc.... and the money keeps being sent out.

@moorf, with scheduling you can set an amount of time for it to take stuff out? like if its weekly you could set it for 4 weeks? just an example! I mean, just as its your responsibility to send money to people you owe, you'd have to make sure you're on top of what you schedule.

Oh! But what if you could set yourself reminders?! 
Something like being able to set them up under your profile so you would get a message saying "send X player $X , for X"

editing to add: I'm aware you can just add a reminder to your page, but I am more prone to look at my messages than to remember to read my layout. ?

Honestly I don't even know where to start as far as seeing if this can be done. I'm not even sure it's possible. I don't even think I've ever seen another game have this feature to see how it would work.


The stuff scheduled on HP currently (shows running, weekly resets, clubs changing over, achievements, etc) are all done using different crons, and they are scheduled in the server to run at certain times/dates depending on what they do, and they do things to the entire site for the most part, not just one or two players. Even the achievement crons (eg. animal achievements) are designed to read a specific column in a specific table in the database to know who to give it to and check as well if they already have it so it's not awarded twice. 


Because your suggestion would be player-set-up specific, I honestly don't think it's possible with how HP is designed.


Your best bet is to set your own schedule/reminders to pay people and do it yourself.

I don't know if this would help anyone, but I have a gmail made just for HP and set events on my calendar for breeds etc and then I use google keep checklists for weekly tasks and check them off as I go throughout the week and uncheck everything at the end. So for sending money for shows, that's on there and that's how I would remember to do it and which player and how much. If it's checked I know its done, if it's not I know I need to send it. You can get really extensive with sheets too, but I love the check boxes on keep. :)

I do something kinda along Lumos' vein as well.


I have a google sheet for all my private show animals that keeps track of which pair gets what each week. As I request them, I change the colour of the cell from white to something else, then when I enter each show name/day I change the colour back to white. 


I also pay for my shows usually on a monthly or bi-monthly basis so I don't have to rely on remembering weekly. I have on that same sheet who I owe what amount per week, and when I have to next pay, then when the time comes I just math out how much I need to spend to cover the next month or two (whatever timeline I've decided I want to do). When sending the money, I also note in the reason for sending that it's for shows until end of X month or whatever, for their benefit too.


Example of my horses in privates as my sheet looks at this moment: https://prnt.sc/M9DJxhiCYIF7

It was totally just a suggestion and random thought I had talking to Binny :P I figured it was something impossible to code but wanted to share! :) I use google drive and have an HP email so doing what I can on that side of things for sure!
