Classes
There is too much spells handled by the add-on to list them here, see in game. But for a quick summary, it handles every speed increase spells.
Sets
In the Set Options category you will find several tabs.
- Companions and Mounts tabs: Here you can create sets and select which one is active for edition (If it is not the Default set you have to activate it before the add-on will use it, see bellow), when selecting companions or mounts in the Mounts List or the Companions List categories it will edit their respective active set.
- Default Sets category within Companions and Mounts tabs: Here you can create the default set of sets. This is useful if you want to create several sets and just use some of them as the default one. It is not mandatory and the add-on will search for a set named Default if nothing is set here. But if you have created a set and want to use it, it have to be selected here. Remember that the add-on will not use a custom set until asked for.
- Area Companions and Area Mounts tabs: Here you can define a set of sets for a given area, the add-on will use those sets if you are in that area.
Sets are saved on a global scope, they are not tied to the current profile, editing a set on a character will modify it for all your toons using that set. This is unique and all the other options are tied to the character profile (default set of sets, area set of sets, etc).
A set will not be considered active until it have at least one favorite selected.
Custom macros
You can edit the mount button macro, using classic macro syntax or LUA. As this feature is for advanced users I will not make a full documentation on it. Read the summary in game.
And if you import someone else code be sure to completely trust him/her. This code will be executed when clicking the button, and even if there is not threat for your account, you can still get griefed/scammed.
Other informations
Configuration panel
There is a lot of options, and I think more will come. But every option got a description in game, you are not alone. I will add here more information if something is reported unclear.
Commands
> /petsandmounts (/pam is an alias)
> /pam - Display the configuration panel > /pam refresh - Force a pets and mounts databases refresh > /pam show - Show the minimap button > /pam resetzones - Reset the current zones database
> /pampet - Random companion > /pammount - Random mount (smart) > /pamground - Random ground mount (forced) > /pamfly - Random flying mount (forced) > /pamaquatic - Random aquatic mount (forced) > /pampassengers - Random passengers mount (forced) > /pamsurface - Random surface mount (forced) > /pamrepair - Random repair mount (forced)
Random summon
Here is the priority used by the add-on.
- Force one.
- Area override.
- Area (add-on forced, ex: vashj'ir, aq40). Can be disabled.
- Favorites and Area sets.
- All.
This can be altered by some items, the Magic Broom or the Haunted Memento for example. Those specifics instances can be disabled in the options panel.
Impact on the system
As every add-on relying on databases, it is using a lot of memory. Although it will not harass your CPU, especially in combat.
Support
If you find an error or have a suggestion, please use the tickets system. This is better as I instantly receive an E-mail. You can also help with the add-on localization.
Some features could not be available with the release version, as I edit the description when uploading new alpha. You can find all the add-on versions here.

Posted Aug 30, 2016The addon does not recognize the following pets created by the Mage's Familiar Stone:
It immediately dismisses these "familiar pets" and summons a regular one. Hope you could fix this.
Thank you!

Posted Aug 29, 2016Is there something wrong with the /pampet? Doesn't seem to spawn the random pets I indicate, but instead goes through all pets (and I assume mounts) randomly. Not sure what to do. Should I uninstall and reinstall or something?

Posted Aug 29, 2016This is the normal behavior of /pampet, I will give the player an option to use the favorites instead of totally random.

Posted Aug 29, 2016Really? That's odd. I may have used the wrong term. I've used /pampet since I found this add-on. It always used the pet list pulled from the Active Set (under set options). Those pets are specifically checked on the Companion List. So my goal is to get the pets checked on that list to populate with /pampet. It always worked that way, no?
I assume the new expansion goofed up the Hybrid tab? I vaguely remember seeing a Hybrid tab under Mounts List, but I'm not too sure (took a bit of a break from WoW). I don't see it now.Thanks for taking the time to response to me. New expansion are always overwhelming.
Looks like the Hybrid tab finally appeared after a couple of reloads. Woot! The earlier problem still exists, though.

Posted Sep 15, 2016I thought I was crazy too! I set the addon up to do this for 11 chars pre legion and then it stopped working. Author said it's normal behavior and he's working on it so I'm patiently waiting, love the addon.

Please make this compatible with the Mount Journal Enhanced addon.
https://mods.curse.com/addons/wow/mount-journal-enhanced
Both addons work fine if the other is disabled.

Posted Aug 29, 2016Well, it was a strange one. It is fixed in the latest alpha and I will tag it as release after sending this.
Thank you for reporting it.
Edit: Nope, still here when opening the config, I will investigate, but this is not the right time. :)

Posted Aug 27, 2016Hi I am unsure if this is the companions resetting or what but I cannot get my companions set to work at all. Mounts seem to work but pets wont :( Do you think you could add screenshots to your steps to get sets to work? There seems to be a lot of stuff that doesnt need to be there like "active sets" and "default sets" I can choose my saved profile in default but its not there for active sets. I then created a set just called voos mounts and voos companions and again it seems like the mounts worked but not the companions. The lists in "mounts in sets" and "companions in sets" are accurate. I also feel like I had this issue a long time ago :(

Posted Aug 29, 2016"Active Set" is the set active for edition, it is the set you are adding or removing companions from when checking or unchecking boxes within the "Companions List" category.
"Default Sets" is the set that will be used if there is no forced companion or no area set.
The addon check in that order, "Force One" => "Area Override" => "Area Companions" => "Default Sets" => All the companions.

Posted Dec 4, 2016I, too, and confused by this. Can someone make a video to elaborate more on how to do this? I have found the sets tab and created a set, selected it as the active set, etc. But still when I go to the companion list tab, it is empty. And the area under the sets tab that says "List of the companions in the selected sets: none" with no option to change that.
For that matter, it also says that there are no pets listed in the default set. So I am so confused.

Posted Aug 27, 2016Thank you SO MUCH for updating this! I was lost without it!
I do have one small request/question - hopefully it isn't hard?
When I force one mount on a character (my arcane mage ONLY rides her mystic runesaber), the ground mounts only list ground mounts (not flying mounts that can also be ground mounts). Normally, that's no big, as we are almost always able to fly, but in Legion, we will be using only land mounts. I'd like to tell the add-on that even when I'm grounded, I still want to use a 4-legged flying mount. Is that possible? Like, maybe include flying mounts to be chosen as forced land mounts? Or maybe it's easier to include an option on the forced ground mounts that is 'same as flying mount' or something?

Posted Aug 29, 2016You have to tell the addon which flying mounts to force as hybrid, if you force that mount as hybrid and the option "No Hybrid(Ground)" is uncheck it will summon it.
Look for a "Hybrids Selection" checkbox within the mounts tab on the main options category. This will add a new tab where you can select hybrids.

Posted Aug 21, 2016I'm interested in adding an option for sets for each spec. so it will automatically switch profiles to a different one for each spec I have
Anyone has any idea how I can make that happen?

Posted Aug 19, 2016Thanks very much for updating! Also, thanks also to the people who have been doing fan updates.
I'm currently on 1.8.2. I'm having an issue where it seems the addon isn't respecting the favorites list for companions.
I have favorites and a default list set up but when I click the summon button, it's just summoning completely random pets. The summon mount button however, seems to be working fine. If I revoke the summon and have the addon auto summon, it auto summons from the favorites so I'm not sure if there's something I'm doing wrong or something that changed in terms of settings that I need to change or have missed.
Anyone else seeing this?
Thanks.

Posted Aug 20, 2016It is the addon normal behavior.
Giving the player the option to choose between totally random and using your fav list for the pets summon button is on my todo list. :)

Posted Aug 20, 2016It is strange you got an error here. Anyway, the addon will check if the content is available and it will be up with the next alpha.
