Runaway pets
102 Posts	Link to post - Posted August 18th 2014 at 2:24 PM Susan Groth My pets keep escaping from their pens. Any ideas on how to keep them where I put them?

102 Posts	Link to post - Posted August 19th 2014 at 1:03 PM Susan Groth I do have a couple of Amicus pens and a fenced area. I may need to expand my fenced area to accommodate the additional pets as I get them. But even having only 2 pets in the Amicus pen, they escape! :-)
Lvl 440 "Other Peoples Problem Solver!" 5565 Posts	Link to post - Posted August 19th 2014 at 2:45 PM Raymond cause any pen with 2 or more sprites will have escapes because of the way it's programmed to prevent 2 pets from occupying the same spot at the same time. I'm about to make a 7x7 pen of individual 1x1 cells instead if the great big triple thick walled one I currently have for about 40 of my pets,
