Unusual Pet Weight

Post by Beskytter » Wed Oct 28, 2015 3:53 pm

I bought a black raven from Westgate on my alt Athyros. When he had the raven mount his shoulder, Athyros suddenly couldn't move because he was carrying too much. I checked and it looks like the raven is set to weigh 180lbs.

Is there a chance this was a typo and it just needs a quick fix? Or is it a random weight system when buying pets and I just got the one morbidly obese raven?

This is likely related to the race file for birds. I tested with a few and each one, despite being sized tiny, was about 170 lbs. I will look into the files later and see what can be done.

Changing the base race file to size tiny (the size of most birds already) did not alleviate this issue. A soft code solution of some kind is coming.
