*DISMISS / CLAIM and flags
Posted: Sun May 26, 2013 10:41 am
Currently DISMISS adds the pet and nowander flags to a beastie. The pet flag makes sense, it allows the beast to be subsequently CLAIMed by someone else. However, the nowander flag doesn't make as much sense to me (it keeps the dismissed pet in the area where it was dismissed) and it causes a problem if the beastie is subsequently CLAIMed: it will not follow through area transitions without having the flag manually removed or being ridden.
One of two fixes, which is apropos depends on whether non-mountable beasties claimed (especially by druids from nature) should be able to move across areas:
1) Have DISMISS no longer place the nowander flag (I think this is the one to go with)
2) Have CLAIM strip the nowander flag (this would allow a claimed bear, for example, to leave the forest)
