This was something that surprised me a bit, when I went to switch pixpets out and found I couldn't take them out of my house if a pixpal was attached to them :o

I don't know for sure why pixpets need their hoard finds cleared before they can be taken back to your inventory, but I have no complaints about that at all, as it doesn't let me forget items (and I absolutely would) and is likely a way to prevent people holding items that they dont otherwise have/can afford the inventory space for, or even using those as more inventory slots than currently available with upgrades, thus lessening the load on the site server

I'm guessing with the pal inventory being much smaller than the pet one, that this is the reason why pixpals currently cant stay paired with pixpets in the pixpet inventory?

The reason this strikes me so odd is that pixpals aren't like inventory items though, I like the idea of having a specific pixpal to pair to a specific pet. Attaching potions and removing hoard finds isn't like attaching and hatching pixpals. Something less like a set of clothes to wear and more like... well, a pal lmao, a little critter that's got an established bond with my pet

Also, this would remove the need to click over to another page of the site to remove the pixpal and then send the pixpet back to your inventory, so this isn't an entirely emotional opinion I have here over these small clusters of pixels lol

This is such a small site, it wouldn't surprise me if this is simply not feasible with server load and hosting cost right now. But if that's the case, I hope we can get this option in the future when we do!

And of course, in the meantime, I'm curious what other player's thoughts are o:

You bring up a good point, though this one might take some time to implement if we're able to being that the system that brought pixpals to life is different as compared to the one existing for pixpets, that we had to sort of interlink. It would probably require an update/upgrade of the pixpet system to be similar to the pixpal one first if we were to implement this if that makes sense.

I'm no web developer, so I believe it!

Though with how theres coding to detect if a pixpal is attached to a pixpet, wouldnt there be a way to disable that so pixpals could go with their pixpets? :o Again I dont know how to build a website so it's probably not that simple, that's just the first thought I had

We'll look into it, but no promises on this one since I'm not entirely sure if we can pull it off well.

No worries! It's not like this hampers gameplay, I hope I didn't sound like I was being demanding at all <:>

Ahaha, no no no, not at all. The suggestions that we read and are able to implement, we do try to get them in. :) No such thing as a bad idea.
