Working with pets (playing?)

[Bamko]

I hate to start a new topic... and forgive me if I missed this elsewhere, but I did multiple searches...

I have trained my EMpathy to over 10.  I still can not get my pet to follow me.  I have asked for help in game, but it looks like I am doing it right... I get empathy points for trying... but lil guy just stares at me...

And not a clue on how to get him to assist me... and assist me in what? 

and how does one "train" a pet?  I look at his skills, but no way to buy training.

Looked for a book in Hydlaa Library... magic shop has a little info...

Someone had to create the system.  I hear you can do more with pets now...

could someone point me in the right direction at least?  a breakdown of how things work would be better.

Checked forums, guides.  Could be an interesting aspect of game play... or not?

Thanks and keep up the good work.

the pet system is under heavy development and will take much time before it gets to a point that there are few issues

I expect issues.

But does anything work yet?  if so, what?

I think that is a fair question.

With my svn server, the pets follow, stay, and attack npcs, from low levels (attack things at level 1 I think). I suspect the data/npc* files on the laanx server are not updated as they are in svn, it might be low priority.

Maybe the dev wants to set up some better rules for laanx though.
