    Ok... a while back I posted a question concerning the PET's speed and basically, it was determined that its speed relies on the ship. I recently bought a Spearhead and started letting my PET palli. To my annoyance, another PET had been placed on mine and conveniently took the palli..... I went to go check who's ship it was and found it was a goliath??? Since my PET's speed is faster, shouldn't it be able to pick cargo before a Goliath's pet???

    Ah but since it has a faster speed, shouldn't it reach it first? (I understand if the first time it appeared the message of unable to collect but not after)

    Also remember if your pet doesn't have far range, if you fly in the opposite direction you may cancel the collection.

    Honestly, just keep picking pally, PETS are stupid anyways, mine just looks at pally.

    If you are unlucky and your pet is following another pet, your pet will still try to pick up the palli the other pet can finish and move to the next before you pet decides the palli is not free and you pet will follow it as they are programmed to go to the nearest palli also the speed advantage compared to the short distance between palli most of the time is insignificant.

    On the odd occasion that I have collected palli, I would sometimes deliberately go around pick up the palli in from of a pet as I would know which palli it would go to next and I could get to each before the pet would get there.

    Anytime my pet was following another I just switch configs to bring back pet to me then switch back to speed config so it would take a different route

    Pet is 30% faster than your ship speed, so to make it faster go in a faster ship.

    I have found that once 2 PETs start to "fight" over the palli, and your PET is losing, the best option is to turn your PET off, then back on. It will start gathering the palli closer to you and not near other players (where their PETs are).

    Hahaha, funny you say that. My PET goes real fast till it gets to the pally,box or cargo then stops and sneaks up on it :rolleyes:

    Sometimes I shoot my PET with a few whites.. seems to WAKE it up for a while :D:D Just kidding.

    Peace :cool:
