Miscellaneous: Pet names by class

[nilbog]

Just so this is .. on the books:

PC pet names should be distinct per class. I think. Research will verify, but I'm including this as it's a completely external research project. Necromancer pets should be named from a different list than Magician pets. The same likely goes for Enchanters and Shamans. i.e. Ever seen a necromancer pet named 'Laser' ?

I increased the known pet name list on eqemu prior to p99 launch in 2009. Nothing has been done since.

    printf("Pet being created: %s\n",petnames[r]); // DO NOT COMMENT THIS OUT!
    return petnames[r];
}

If we had different lists for the different pet classes, we could distinguish them upon summoning.

Just so this is .. on the books:

PC pet names should be distinct per class. I think. Research will verify, but I'm including this as it's a completely external research project. Necromancer pets should be named from a different list than Magician pets. The same likely goes for Enchanters and Shamans. i.e. Ever seen a necromancer pet named 'Laser' ?

I increased the known pet name list on eqemu prior to p99 launch in 2009. Nothing has been done since.

good thing you guys are working on important things like pet names being distinctive for classes and not unimportant things like fizing the kith zone crash (and staying down for more than 24 hours) or other game breaking issues like PVP resists or mage bolts
