DISCARDED: Shrinking Bio-pets & seeing their stats

Post by OldManAlewar »

as it is now, bio-pets can be stabled, but not shrunk. it would be nice to deploy them somewhere further that 3 screens away from a moongate.

That sayd, one cannot see the stats of human shaped bio-pets, so fixing statloss, or just seeing what their resists are so you can upgrade them with ointments, is a mystery.

you can see their skills just fine, on command, but not stats, since you cant lore them.

also, if there's a policy/technical reason why bio's cant be shrunk, i'm curious too :D

There's a policy about not shrinking them, it's suposed to be one of the drawbacks of having a bio - it's been in since day one, actually you can check that the original system we have also has this limit.
And on the technical side, I as staff can shrink it, but they dont come out right :)

As for the loring, i've just put that on my todo list and it will get resolved.
