Guard is a toggle; you can command your pet to stop guarding by using the Guard option when you don't have anything targeted (the ESC key clears all targets). The droid will guard who ever is targeted. If no one is targeted, or an enemy is targeted, the droid will guard its owner. The droid will attack the first aggressive entity that comes after the guarded target. Any subsequent aggressor will be added to its list to attack after the initial aggressor has been destroyed. Pets will not stop guarding when commanded to follow or stay in combat (i.e. they will resume guarding after combat).<br> | ||

+ | When you have one pet out and you wish to use the /tellpet command, you do not need to target your pet. You may simply issue the command, eg "/tellpet group." In the case where you have multiple pets out, you need to target the pet that you wish to issue the command to and then send the command, eg "/tellpet group" otherwise the command is sent to all pets. If you've named your pet, then you can address it by name without having to target it. For example if your pet's name is "Fluffy" then you would say "/tellpet (Fluffy) attack" or for one called "EojsKillahDroid" "/tellpet (EojsKillahDroid) follow target" (note that the pet's name must have the brackets around it, and that it is case-sensitive and should be typed exactly as you see the name above the pet's head). Issuing commands based on pet name only works for pets that have been given names. Pets that have not been named for example "a 3PO protocol droid" or "a bol (baby)" cannot have commands issued via their name, therefore the owner must use the normal /tellpet method or targeting the pet and then doing /tellpet. The /tellpet command can only send words, or groupings of letters that must be at least 2 letters. Single letter commands cannot be sent using /tellpet. Additionally, commands sent are case sensitive meaning that "aa" and "AA" are in effect, different commands. | ||

+ | Another use of the tellpet command is to train pets. When the owner wishes to train a pet, they will use the radial menu on the pet (or conversation dialog choices for certain droids) and then the pet will be receptive to commands. At this point the owner can use /tellpet to issue the command that they wish the pet to be trained with, eg "/tellpet follow." Once the command is sent, the pet will | ||

System MessagesDroid Command Programming MechanicsIn this section, I will go over the basic droid commands, and how to program a droid. Droid Commands are accessed and created through three methods: 1. Program Radial Menus
The command list is a window that is obtained by the player through left clicking on the pet in the datapad and using the List Commands radial option. The window that displays contains all the known commands that the pet has acquired.
The Datapad List
The programmable commands list is a list of commands available to droids through using the Program menu on the droid radial. Part 1. Program Radial Menu CommandsPets have a few default trained commands when they are first created which are displayed. Others have to be trained into the pet.
This is a listing of all available radial options that may be trained to droids as they appear under the Program menu radial.
Part 2. Droid Module Menu CommandsComplete Module Specific Radial Menu Command List This is a listing of all available radial options that may be trained to droids as they appear under the various Droid Module Specific menu radials.
Part 3. Droid Conversation Menu CommandsDroid Conversation Menu Command List This is a listing of all available radial options that may be trained to droids as they appear under the various conversation menu radials used by droids that have personality chips.
Part 4. Droid Module Menu CommandsMisc Radial Menu Command List This is a listing of all available radial options that may be trained to droids as they appear under the various Droid Module Specific menu radials.
Part 5. Programmable Command DefinitionsNotes: 1. Commands cannot be issued to pets if the pet is outside of a building and the player issuing a command is inside of a building. 2. Pets commanded to "follow" or "stay" in combat will stop fighting, and either follow, or stay, until commanded to attack something.
