Pixelancer ~ Pepo ~ painted Version 03062022

Thanks for your patronage!

Well, I hope you enjoy this little oddity as much as I enjoyed creating it.
These little creatures can be set to wander around your home, or you can attach them for use as an Avatar because they have a walking AO.
Have fun!

~~~~ STARTUP

~ Please ensure you have permission to rez, have enough prims available, and are using the correct Group for the land.
~ Rez or attach your pet and touch it. The menu will appear.

~~~~ MENU

~ Name:
Rename your pet.

~ Wander:
Set your pet to wander around randomly. The selection you choose determines how far from the starting point the pet could go. Wander only looks good on flat surfaces. (It uses llSetKeyframedMotion, so it will not collide with anything. These are not Physical.)
A wandering pet will stop for 10 seconds when someone touches it.

~ Stay:
Take your pet out of Wander mode

~ Avatar:
Use your pet as an avatar or an attached follower. It will walk when you walk and stop when you stop. This requires the pet to be attached to the Avatar Center position. You may manually attach or use the Avatar button. The pet will recognize when it is attached.

~ Main Menu:
Return to the main menu

~ Reset Script:
Reset Scripts (Just in case SL gets weird...)

~ Close Menu:
Close the menu. (The menu will time out in 30 seconds, anyway.)

~~~~ MENU DOES NOT WORK ?

You may have waited too long and the menu timed out. It has a silent 30 second timeout. Touch your toy and try again.

If the menu is still slow or not responding, check the SL grid status. When they are running maintenance, script functions may fail. It is rare that you will need to use Reset Script, but try it if the grid status is not showing anything wrong. Script heavy sims are simply laggy, and this pet uses scripts, too!

Yes, your own Internet connection matters.

~~~~ LOST YOUR TOY ?

First, do not panic. No one can take your toy. The only way you will lose your toy is if the SL asset servers delete it. This is not a common occurrence.

Did you try to rez onto a mesh surface? Quite frequently, if you attempt to rez any object on mesh, the object will not rez and vanish from your Inventory. Relog your viewer, then the object will reappear in your Inventory.

A pet in Wander mode can wander right off a sim. If the area it tries to enter does not allow this, your pet will be pulled up by the server. It can take as much as 24 hours before it is returned to your Inventory. So be very careful where you set your pet to Wander.

What is the SL grid status telling you? If they are running maintenance, you should wait until that is complete before looking for your toy.

~ Solution Summary:

- Perform an Area Search through your viewer or use the free Object Locator available at Pixelancer on the Marketplace.
- Filter Inventory using a word from your toy's Name. Use "Pixelancer" if you have not renamed your toy.
- Check your Inventory Objects, Lost and Found, and Trash folders
- Relog your viewer.
- Check your inventory again.
- It can sometimes take several minutes to as long as 24 hours before SL returns an object when it has been autoreturned. Wait and check again.
