How it works, step by step
- 1
Server owns pet inventory + equip slots; replicates equipped pet descriptors.
- 2
Client AlignPosition/AlignOrientation rig floats pets in trailing offsets around the character.
- 3
Bobbing + tilt from velocity makes flight feel organic; scale per rarity.
- 4
Multi-pet formations distribute angles around the player.
- 5
Equip/unequip remotes validate slot counts and ownership before applying.
Concepts you'll use
- AlignPosition rigs
- Formation math
- Descriptor replication
Mistakes that cost you players
- Pets welded server-side to characters break on respawn and stream-out.
- Pet damage/aura effects must resolve server-side even if visuals float locally.
