[Bug] Abandoned Horses

[GgDionne 43]

So

When the new update for 1.9 was released, I found a horse in the middle of my town. I had no training stick, so I've spent some time searching for one. Just to be safe, I got a GM to check that it was unclaimed, so I didn't waste my time searching for a stick, and learned that it was unclaimed. Its been chilling in my house for a few weeks now, and I FINALLY have a stick, but to my dismay, the stick said it was claimed. I did a modreq, and Magicpastry came to my aid. He said that abandoned horses cannot be claimed, as animals are quite buggy. I have a screenshot of the whole conversation.

 

 

HOW I THINK IT SHOULD BE FIXED:

When the open beta was released for the 1.9 LOTC, I used the /spawnhorse to spawn horses. The command had some text saying that you can put in a number to change the horses speed level. So what I propose is a command with /pets that would check the horses speed level, kill it, and spawn a new horse of the same speed. For example a user would type /pets respawn. It would give a warning stating that any saddle or horse armor that is currently equipped will be lost, and prompt you to type the command again if your ready to proceed. Then, once you type /pets respawn again, it will prompt the user to right click the horse that they are respawning with a training stick. Then the command would scan the horses speed level, kill it, and spawn a new one for them.

We used to have a ruling of abandoned horses being able to be given to others, by simply duping the horse (right clicking it with a horse egg) and killed the original, should just do this again.

I think that just spawns a baby horse now :/
