Getting a pet to follow you after telling it to wait somewhere
« on: January 31, 2020, 07:46:44 pm »
I told my donkey to wait somewhere, but when I asked it to follow me again it did not. Is there any way to remedy this?

Have you tried riding it for a while? Fast traveling in and out of an area?

tried lead it/slash riding it for a distance. As soon as I let him go, he bee-lines back to the place I told him to wait at. I fast traveled away and then returned. I retired, made another adventurer in the party, gifted the donkey to him (donkey still wouldn't follow new owner), and gifted it back to my original adventurer. None of this worked.

Donkeys are stubborn. Sounds fine to me.  :D

Its a bug that's up on the Mantis tracker and most likely on Toady's attention to fix.
