Pet Taunt

So how do I get this added into the svn ?

One issue I have found, is my pet is normally able to pull aggro off of me, but sometimes even though taunt is on, and I tell my pet to taunt several times, it won't. I send my pet to attack and let it fight for some time, and then I will cast a nuke, or run up and hit the mob once, and then back off, and it will completely ignore my pet for the rest of the encounter. If I pull a mob with a spell and tell pet to attack, it will completely ignore the pet. Now if I zone out and back in, and try the same tactic the pet will hold aggro, so I am not really sure what creates this issue, but resetting the zone seems to fix, just a pain when your in the bottom of a dungeon by yourself surrounded by mobs and all of a sudden the pet can't hold aggro.

I've seen posts about that over on the PEQ forums a few times. I do not now that anyone has ever looked into it, and it does seem to be quite random. But once a pet stops holding aggro all you can do is re-summon the pet, zone, or camp and come back.

I tried to do a commit today, I guess I have never had the ability to do this. Can someone do this for me ?

special_attacks.cpp

//general stuff, for all classes....
//only gets used when their primary ability get used too
if (taunting && HasOwner() && target->IsNPC() && target->GetBodyType() != BT_Undead && taunt_time) {
   Say("Taunting %s, Master.", target->GetCleanName());
   Taunt(target->CastToNPC(), false);
}

Why would you even think you could commit? lol

Try the server code submissions forum btw.
