Custom Pet Names

[Phant0mX]

The ability to give your pets custom names and rename them.

I'm wary of this because of displaying them, though it would be really simple to add I think.

Could a name like - Wolf "Bob", or Rycochet's Bob work?

I don't want to have pet names showing up as the same as player names basically...

Could even just add colour to the pet name (the same way that mmoTarget uses colours etc)...

[Phant0mX]

That's what I was thinking. If possible a player's own pets would just show their name, while you could leave "Player's Wolf" or "Player's Wolf Bob" for others.

I don't know if that would be too complicated.

I think the name should be as short as is feasible to avoid cluttering the screen, but the "Player's Bob" style should work well.

[Rycochet]

Wouldn't be complicated, and really should be up to the server owner to choose which styles to allow.

Once the Spoutcraft API (client mods basically) gets finished then hopefully it'll let me show a little icon next to the name as well - then can name them, but it's still obvious that they're a pet and not a player.
