Game Mechanics: Pets not following pathing rules

I dont know if its all pets or not, but the shaman pet isnt following pathing rules at all, hes just walking right through walls and floors. Getting stuck inside a wall or ground when attacking a mob.

Patch pending, so pets will use pathing while following.

Will this also change the way mobs are acting in dungeons?

Plane of Hate trash mobs are occasionaly walking through walls now and seem to be attacking people at random that didn't aggro them.

I'm not certain that it's related but it started happening at the same time as pet pathing was changed.

I only changed pets while they are following.

It was in the code, that they plotted a straight line towards their owner. I changed it so they will use the pathing nodes, so they don't go through walls in places where pathing is set up.

Pohate sucks. Aggro was always a nightmare. And I remember that you could pretty much pretend there are no walls there, concerning aggro and pathing. It had to be one of the worst zones in history.
