I have tried the tell pet command and I can not get it to work. Can someone please post how to use the command properly? And can someone post a complete example of a macro that works for trainning pets skills PLEASE!???!???

\"/Tellpet store\" will make the pet store IF your pet is trained to store on the \"store\" command.
also, look at http://www.swgcreatures.com/forums/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=532 for help on making training macros

Make sure you are typing /tellpet (one word) and not /tell pet (two words). I use /tellpet almost 100% of the time with very few instances of it not working. And even then, if I spam it a few times, or move a step or two closer to my pet(s) it works fine :)

I can get one letter commands working too, but only If i do it like this:
/tellpet (Name) a
a is for Attack and so on. Less spatial flood is always nice :).

/tellPet Won't work if the first word in your command is a single letter. For example, I named one of my droids (X), and he won't listen to any command via tellpet that begins with his name. Same goes for 1 letter commands like a, unless you put a name or another word before it. Even making it aa will make it work, it just doesn't like single letters. Multiple word commands work fine as well, or they do for me anyway.

So, in conclusion, we've learned not to give ur pets 1 letter commands! :wink:

Personally, I've always hated the one letter commands. Even in spatial chat, I don't mind hearing a fellow CH tell his pet to \"kill\" or \"come\" but when he just says \"a\" or \"f\" or whatever.....ah well, it's not important but I never liked it. :?

I agree Yvesof!

I agree too. My commands are all 4-letters long beginning with a \"W\" (except attack, which is 3-letters long 'war', and the never used cpp and gpp) They are all descriptive of the command, if you have a very vivid imagination LOL.

I guess I'll be the devils advocate because I really don't see the difference between a guy spamming A, A, A, A to attack versus Attack, Attack, Attack, Attack !! The latter actually takes more space since it involves more letters. I use single letter commands for the convenience of only having to type A [enter] when I'm in a battle and need to re-direct my pets to other targets.
