Pets have a real problem following me inot both caves and POI buildings. Its very annoying. Sometimes they seem to be following but vanish when i get inside. Its like they go under the structure rather than into it. I can go out and in serveral times and finally get them in. This applies to both driods and creatures.


Also in POI structures, they will often get stuck where they cant attack an enemy. It funny that NPCs dont usually have this problem. They can attack from inside a wall where I cant even target them. Often my pets can attack them when i cant target them, but other times the pets jsut get stuck. Pet pathing could really use some work.

Yes, has been an ongoing problem for awhile. Sometimes they warp inot the structure (like Fort Tusken and the Geo Caves) sometimes they get stuck or disappear. Got killed in the warren couple months ago because pets got stuck and would not follow.

Yeah, I hate this bug too. Seems to happen a lot with caves, but really any time you're trying to transition from an exterior environment to an interior one. The pet seems to get "stuck" in the outside environment, so it's walking "under" the building as it follows you around in there.


It seems to help me if I'm moving very slowly as I cross the threshold. If you can keep the pet from breaking into a full run, it seems to get stuck less often for me. Of course, that could just be coincidental.
