Pets and followers movement block

[fret]

How would I go about editing the movement script of followers/pets so that they don't walk into one another? This happens in Trammel where by definition there is no blocking. They all go to the exact same tile and it looks ridiculous.

I edited WalkMobileRange in BaseAI to give them some distance from the target, but they still move onto a single tile when following the player.

This worked for me.

In BaseCreature.cs, change OnMoveOver method as follows:

        public override bool OnMoveOver(Mobile m)
        {
            if (m is BaseCreature && !((BaseCreature)m).Controlled)
            {
                return (!Alive || !m.Alive || IsDeadBondedPet || m.IsDeadBondedPet) || (Hidden && IsStaff());
            }
            if (this.Controlled && m is BaseCreature && ((BaseCreature)m).Controlled &&
                this.ControlMaster == ((BaseCreature)m).ControlMaster) return false;

            return base.OnMoveOver(m);
        }

One caveat: if you do this, your pets may not be able to gang up on monsters as efficiently, since they might have to jockey for position to reach the monster, particularly in tight quarters.

do I add this in or change it because not seeing this anywhere in basecreature cs

If there's no OnMoveover method in basecreature then add the whole thing

If you don't see OnMoveOver in BaseCreature, then you are not using ServUO. What are you using?

the method in BaseCreature should look like this, around line 3843
https://github.com/ServUO/ServUO/blob/master/Scripts/Mobiles/Normal/BaseCreature.cs#L3843

 public override bool OnMoveOver(Mobile m)
        {
            if (m is BaseCreature && !((BaseCreature)m).Controlled)
            {
                return (!Alive || !m.Alive || IsDeadBondedPet || m.IsDeadBondedPet) || (Hidden && IsStaff());
            }

            return base.OnMoveOver(m);
        }

Thanks @Lokai! Dumped this into my basecreature and everything went as expected.
