SetHorseTypeRule

Makes a horse type or changes one - what one horse of it pulls and its pace under a rider.

pull is what one horse of the type pulls at a cart’s full pace, in kilograms (0 - 10000; a horse’s strength adds or takes up to 30 %); ride its pace under a rider against a riding horse’s, 0.95 - 1.15 (the game’s own speed effects on the horse make it, so it comes out as 0.95, 1, 1.10 or 1.15, the nearest; a pace above 1 also takes a fifth off its saddlebags). The game has no slower effect that leaves a ridden horse able to run, so a slower type is not possible yet. Up to 64 types; a name is 1 - 32 letters, digits, _ and -. The horses of the type change at once, ridden or hitched.
