Sooner it starts coming back the better lol

Could always recall it and summon again, issue there is if you are in a place where you have issues attacking mobs it will spend all it's mana resummoning all the time.

Actually, I just did a test and it looks like the pet goes in a straight line through all obstacles so I don't see it ever failing to engage the enemy. Hm... you could probably use your pet to bring mobs to you through wall. lol.

try testing where the path is another "level", varanas near malatina is a spot I know of, the stairs. Pet's will go for a longish walk to get up the stairs.

I know where you mean but what am I testing? There are no mobs there.

So you mean you at the bottom of the steps and the enemy up near Malatina? Is that what you mean?

Yeah pretty much, the pet will do a big loop of the entire "level" to get to the "enemy"

I don't really see a problem. If you tell the pet to attack then attack yourself it doesn't matter what the pet does. It either attacks the mob with you or attacks the mob even though you can't reach it, in which case it will win or die and you will resummon it or it will go for a run and be of no help and maybe go out of range and respawn near you.

Most of the time it will attack with you but if you don't tell it to attack with you you'll be fighting by yourself anyway so whats the harm?

The reason I brought this up is because I want to commit my changes in regards to pet attacking. I currently have it attacking when I attack. It could use other options but I'm not interested in anything else. So I'll add it to my next commit.

Sounds good, I think the chances of pet running off into the sunset are slim anyway. If it does it may or may not agro the entire map, slim chance though lol :geek:
