Default Flying Creatures

I, not being much of a scripter at all, think it would be a great idea if someone could create flying creatures that actualy fly, over people, walls, etc. because i hate being on a drake and having to walk around a small cliff or short wall, it doesnt really make sense

it cant happen unless it made tiles and removed them over and over as you walked, but that causes a great ammount of lag, i've seen it been done, but yes, it can be done, but yet it most likely will lag crazy and most likely be flawed

OSI's creatures fly somewhat (You'll see birds/dragons/drakes/etc fly over water then back on land (sometimes))

Dragons don't actually fly from what I know about the animation. Their running animation is the "flying" animation.

However, bird do fly but again its animation for those creatures. So its not exactly possible to "script" a creature to fly. If you do make it appear like they are flying it won't look very professional.

Why is this in the suggestion forum anyhow?

you could have players have the option of "canswim=true" and the same for all the ridable dragons and such....that would take care of the water part

So your on a dragon thats nothing special.

Your on a dragon that is "running" thus looks like its flying

Your a dumbass Gold Draco you know that?

What you posted only confirms what I said.

The suggestion was made (as it is somewhat on OSI), and that's all that's needed.
