Mount thread

[atyra]

Use this one to post the mount problems, found in your community.

- There is no mount/unmount animation
- Often it can be that you and your mount become invisible for a short time while riding fast
- If your mektoub die, it will keel over but you will still be sitting on it while it lay in the sand
- If you unmount on a dead mount, you will see it standing with 0 hp - other people still see it down in the sand (has to be proofed)
- If your mount died, you unmounted and free it, there will be a bug if you are buying a new mount and riding on it. The run/walk mode will toggle automatically to "walk" if you mount your new mount.
- When your are mounted and following (in follow mode) another player, your mount is only walking
- It can be that your char is invisible for other players, if you are mounted - seems to appear at random
- If you are attacking an opponent while mounted, you will be dismounted. But after that you are not able to mount/unmount or attack anything. Enter/leave stable will solve this.
- If you dismount, you will appear inside the mektoub.
- If you dismount, it can be (currently no pattern found) that your mount will be set back to the position where you mounted. After that, the mount is following you to your current position.
added 4.1.05: -> The problem only appears, if your mount is in follow mode. If it is not, it will be an the right position after unmounting. Also this only appears if you are riding across two regions. If you stay in one region, there will be no problem.

added 3.1.05
- The rightclick on mount menu is not working correctly. You cannot unmount with this menu, because the unmount text is outgreyed. Also it can be that the "mount" command doesn't work. Currently you better use the petwindow to make sure your command work.
- There is speed problem when you dismounted. It can be, that your char got the speed of a running mount. Currently no pattern found and no way to solve it (unmount/mount, leave/enter stable, teleport,... will not solve it).

added 4.1.05
- You can trade a mount which is currently mounted by you. This can cause a problem, that you are not able to unmount your selled mount, if it was mounted while trade. The other tradepartner is also not able to mount this mektoub. -> relog can solve it, but I think it would be better if a mount were not sellable while mounted.
- Packers are slower than mounts. They are not able to follow a mount regardless if their energy is full or not.

Tested with french interface:
-NoExists for the cereal name.
-While on the mount, you can interact with npc via right clicking only, direct clicking does nothing.
-Two players succeded in keeping mek's speed a short time after having unmounted the pet. (reconnexion or changing armore type solve the problem)
-Message about feeding the pet still in english

-> Can't put preorder item, pick or armor crafting tool on mount's inventory.

You cannot put items, which are not sellable, in another inventory than your own (I think you took the crafting package at startup, so you got the tool which is not sellable).


-> Lots of NoExists in emote list while on the mount.

I got those notexist if I'm unmounted, too (english Version). Will add this in the bug thread...

AFTER PATCH
Previous problems seem to be fixed (still testing).
A few new(?) ones:

- 1st person view while mounted is too high
- your items will not be reequipped when unmount
- if your mount is hungry and walking, you will walk too if you unmount
- you can attack a mounted player but he cannot fight back (while in duel)

[tecapio]

Mounting using a keyboard shortcut does not work...Dismounting does.

If you target and attack a mob while mounted you will drop down from the mob and making the sidestepping fight stance with loads of "cannot fight mounted" stuff in sys window. You wont attack, but stay in stance mode and need to right click --> deselect. Also after youve done this, you cant mount your mektub again untill it enters stable and gets out again as the game seem to think you still are ON the mek. Because when you walk around, the mekotub "follows" and always stands exactly on your avatar position when you stop, not keeping distance like in normal times when choosing "follow me".

Packers run slower than mounts? Might be because I have packers of the lowest quality. Don't have enough money to buy higher.

Mek Mounts - when purchasing you have place holders instead of the name.

Mek Mounts - No desciptions showing on the Mek Mounts when purchasing.

Food - when purchasing you have place holders instead of the name.

Food - No desciptions showing on the Food when purchasing.

Inventory tabs - Show as Pack 1, Mount 2, Pack 3. Shouldnt this be Mount 1 and Pack 1 and 2.

Unmount - Have to use the command from the animal list, right click on homin doesnt work (disabled)

Compass - Place holder names for all animals when targetted in the compass.

Portals - cannot cross a portal while mounted.

Unmounting - Meks run off when you unmount and select "follow me" after travelling a distance.

Erm you found those bugs after the patch?

I'm not sure about most ones, but, as example, food and mount names are shown correctly at the stableboy.
