Pets are like state workers

When you tell one to attack and then back off, then attack again they just sit there.

I think this is needed

Code: Select all

client->GetPlayer()->GetInfoStruct()->pet_behavior += 2;

So under attack in commands.cpp

Code: Select all

				if (client->GetPlayer()->GetPet()) {
					client->GetPlayer()->GetPet()->AddHate((Entity*)client->GetPlayer()->GetTarget(), 1);
					client->GetPlayer()->GetInfoStruct()->pet_behavior += 2;
				}
				if (client->GetPlayer()->GetCharmedPet())
					client->GetPlayer()->GetCharmedPet()->AddHate((Entity*)client->GetPlayer()->GetTarget(), 1);

Well that still is not quite right, you have to click attack twice. I tried several things and you always have to attack twice which is still not right.

Okay, you have to send a character sheet change, this works.

Code: Select all

				if (client->GetPlayer()->GetPet()) {
					client->GetPlayer()->GetInfoStruct()->pet_behavior = 2;
					client->GetPlayer()->GetPet()->AddHate((Entity*)client->GetPlayer()->GetTarget(), 1);
					client->GetPlayer()->SetCharSheetChanged(true);
				}

But also I noticed around line 2722, should this not be an assignment but a compare? I changed it to a compare

Code: Select all

if (collection == player->GetPendingCollectionReward())

Side note - pets using the hate system ultimately caused me issues.

I made changes so that they obeyed the pet owner's commands rather than rely on hate.
Might consider doing the same thing.

Exactly, I had already thought about that one.
