get ahold of colibri... i had a similar prob, where my wife thought she stabled her bio, an well... she forgot, about 2 weeks go by, i did the same, an my bio alone has a weapon worth endless millions on the amount of eds put into it... an i forgot to stable it an poof she went, so according to colibri, bios are not ment to go wild, but something in the script lets them, something along those lines, an he will get them back at no cost...

i havent had any probs with wild bios ever since, i figure once is enough to scare me into thinking "all that hard work gone over night"... so if i have that feeling half way asleep "omg did i forget to stable it" ill log in to see if i have followers, an go back to bed haha...

but i hear hes been real busy lately, ontop of the 100s of messages hes gotten so far that he hasnt had time to get to... my advice, have patience, and send him a pm ... unless he sees this post an gets on it right away then rock on

Thanx Colibri for your hard work!

The thing with bios is that, by default, if a biopet goes wild, it simply gets deleted. When the first such thing occurred, i knew this is going to be a popular issue. And it would also be funky if you could leave the biopet out indefinitely.

So I've simply made them to go to a safe place where i can retrieve them from.

I plan on changing it so that when it goes wild, it will go shrunken into your bank box, but with a 7 day unshrink restriction. But for that to work I first need to make the shrinks compatible with bios, and while I'm at it, I'd also like to re-script some parts of it (just core, nothing that players would notice, maybe a 5% faster save).

Please note that biopets will never be shrinkable like regular pets, there will probably also a change in the amount of translocation powder it takes to get them from the stable, if you're in felucca (10 powder, like with the bracelets of binding).

But right now there's a biopet going wild around once a month, so this isn't a big issue.
