[REDACTED] Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 Hello, sorry for all of these dumb questions, but I was wondering if I could make a custom app so my character could have a dog. So He could spawn with it every round. Is this possible? Quote Link to comment
0 AllyBearsley Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 I do know we've had some people get pets from the merchant and walk them around on occasion. [mention]Brutishcrab51[/mention] can speak for himself better than I, for he has bought/brought a few around while I was playing. However, I don't know how bringing those pets on station work. Furthermore I have to ask: Why are you bringing you pet on station? Do you plan to do while visiting or while working? Quote Link to comment

0 tbear13 Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 It seems kinda silly to bring a dog/cat/goldfish to the Aurora, even when you're visiting. Why couldn't the dog stay home for *two* hours? Why would you bring him to a research station, of all places? Quote Link to comment
0 [REDACTED] Posted February 26, 2018 Author Share Posted February 26, 2018 I mean in cargo a dog crate can spawn in the warehouse and the Hop has Ian so....yeah Quote Link to comment
0 tbear13 Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 Station pets are speshul. The warehouse items.. sometimes don't make sense. But that only answers half my question, why would your character bring Pupper McHugs to a research station that he works at in the first place? Quote Link to comment
0 [REDACTED] Posted February 26, 2018 Author Share Posted February 26, 2018 Hm, some people are attached to their pets and take them wherever they go. And some people actually take their pets to work if it’s allowed also even though it’s a research station not everyone on the station actually does something that deals with research, for example cargo tech, bartender etc but I do understand where you’re coming from like if you’re a medical doctor or a researcher you wouldn’t bring a pet for obvious reasons but Ethan is a security officer but he would only bring his pet when he’s off-duty Quote Link to comment
0 Brutishcrab51 Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 During my time playing, I've had a character purchase three pets from the Merchant while on-station. They last for no longer than that round, and become a permanent part of the character's home life after the fact. Something to mention and take care of, not show off in a corporate environment. There is zero reason to bring animals onto the Aurora unless they're already there, or you buy them (see: Corgis and Cats from Cargo). Animals that follow orders follow the Attack/Follow/Stay format of commands that the HoS's dog uses, and if you want a dog that follows commands and doesn't just get dragged around, that'd be able to be used as a weapon (Like the HoS's dog), and that'd probably be a no-no. In that same thought process, having a simple-mob animal that doesn't follow commands would be detrimental to the point of a Custom Item, you'd have a harder time carrying it around and it'd all but disappear from your thoughts in over half the events occurring on the server.
