Horses in Ultima 4
Don G
a horse, I can't clime the ladder in Lord British's castle unless I
dismount. However, when I come back, the horse is gone. Is the
unavoidable, or is there something I can do to prevent this.
Thanks,
Don

Park your horse outside the castle (i.e., before "E"ntering it) and it
should stay put.
Regards,
Tristan

Did U4 have hitching posts, or was that only in Ultima 5? (In fact wasn't
there a command for tying up your horse?)

And they never did figure out a way for the game to know if you stole a
horse.

No, only Ultima V had hitching posts. But neither game had a specific
command for tying up a horse. In U5 you just left your horse beside a
hitching post and it would stay put.

Really? Do you really not "lose an eighth" if you mount a horse that's not
yours? I'm pretty sure that you lose an eighth if you take a chest that's
not yours (such as in Castle Britannia or Moonglow).

For some reason this message never showed up in my reader, but I got the
response. I tried leaving the horse outside of the castle, but it was
gone when I came back out. I'm running u4 through xu4, so maybe it is a
bug.
Thanks,
