Iksar skeleton pets, lich form?

[Eudith]

Hi, this may be the wrong forum for a question like this but I was wondering if anyone has figured out a way to get the pets of Iksar to be Iksar skeletons, or make Iksar's lich form an Iksar skeleton, while leaving the pets / lich forms of other necromancers humanoid? I figure it might be possible with a "quests/global/spells/" script, but don't know where to start, there doesn't seem to be a getPet() Lua function.

Thank you for your time!

You could do it in quests/global/petid.ext (ext being pl or lua) in a SPAWN event (like we do with pets in airplane on PEQ) but that only works if e.self:GetOwner() is valid at that point :P

Interesting! To avoid possible headaches, in what situations would e.self:GetOwner() not be valid?

[demonstar55]

I haven't looked at the code to answer that. But I know the pet spawns before owner on zoning ...

[Eudith]

Oh, that's a good point. For that matter, do you know how I can disable pets zoning? (They used to kill themselves when their owner zoned in the classic era.) I'm not seeing an option right off in the rule_values table.

Thanks again!
