changing pose

[Sanura Snowpaw]

I have noticed when you pose a kitten (under 7 days old) when they grow, flip to the next day, they change poses and default into laying down as if you had all animations turned off.

I noticed this as well I never linked it to a kitty under 7 but now you mention it I think indeed it happens in these cases.

I see it most often at auctions where someone has a kitten posed and then it just starts laying down and every time it has been when they grew a day.

Nods I see it when I put new borns up for sale and pose them some tend to unpose.

Yes, that would be another time it would be common to see it! I just can't unpack to sell because then I want to keep LOL so I tend to sell boxes.

I just saw this today with two of my cats I had tp'd to me to show to someone. Both cats were asleep and in low prim mode. I took them out of low prim and posed them and they stayed where they belonged. I was going to reverse the process and noticed when I unposed the first one, he tp'd home on his own, but the menu came back and i put him in low prim and assumed I'd hit the tp home by accident. But I made sure on the second that i touched nothing but unpose, and sure enough, he tp'd home too.

It appears to be the 'asleep' that's causing some of this, and only when turning pose off.

eta: sorry, this isn't exactly the same as i thought when i originally replied, but this appears to be another manifestation of something amiss the same area of scripting logic.

The logic in what you describe, Liriel, is that when a kitty goes to sleep, it TP's to it's home-point. If it didn't, they could get lost and sleep under the floor most of the time! :O Instead, they are simply made to TP home as soon as the sleep animation starts - which is does when you un-pose it while it sleeps.

You can also move your kitty to somewhere, meaning to set a new home point - and if you forget to set the new home, it'll TP home when it falls asleep.

This, I think, is rather nice - making us able to control exactly where they should go to sleep after a long day's running around. I got a teacup-kitty sleeping at the coffee(!)-table, a kitty at the sofa, two at a pillow etc.. The downside is the thing you describe - that they TP the moment we un-pose them while asleep. But once we know why, and can fix it by setting their home-point again, I don't find it hard to live with I must admit

Okay this is off topic but ...
Now I think of it the low prim option would be so much better if this was to be a pose with open eyes.
After all the fur - Eyes combination is for most people the eyecatcher when the kitties are displayed for sale.
Eventhough we can imagine how it could look I would prefer to show it on a kitty for sale.
This is the reason I rarely use the low prim mode.
And somehow I can't put the kitty in a bucket with water,... real cats hate water so bad why I think it looks so sad.
