Collision with summoned creatures doesn't make sense.

I just noticed that I walk right through my summoned creature just like I walk right through other players, but I don't walk through their summoned creatures? This doesn't make much sense.

    That is odd, hmm.... oversite? Reason for it?

    Players and anything they summon have no collision to stop griefers. A few sorcs could 'block' the banker etc

    Yea, I think most of us know that. If you read what I wrote, you'll see that I just ran into another players summoned creature and it had collision on it.

    Except player summoned creatures DO have collision and also appear in "Dialogue View" (Bank/NPC etc) where all other players are hidden.

    Oversight most likely, or they just did not get around to it pre release and now other stuff is on higher priority.

    Some of them do. I just went back to see, and the bigger summoned creatures do not have collision. It was the familiar that I had run into before. I wasn't able to find another player with a familiar out to test again, but I will keep my eyes open. It was just a little odd that my familiar did not have collision but another players did.

    Yep, last night I got stuck trying to get to a way shrine because someone's clan fear was blocking the doorway.

    Had never noticed it before though.

    If I can walk through someone's horse, I ought to be able to walk through their summoned critter(s).

    I'm not even sure if this was a mistake. I request the moderators lock this thread.
