+IF YOUR HACK HAS THE ANIMAL 'CATEPILLER' MAKE SURE YOU FIX THE SPELLING ERROR!! Silly me, I misspelled the word 'catepiller'. You need to update /includes/functions_showthread.php and the MODIFYPROFILE template from the word 'catepillar' to 'catepiller' with an E.

how about a place you can send your pet to be looked after? incase you go on hoilday dont fprget doing this will cost you so much money thats if your adding some type of money system that will let you buy things for the pet.

On thing we are still debating is where to add a money system or wait until a store comes hack comes out and then integrate it with that...but good idea about having to take your bet to be looked at..."pet sitting"

There's a store hack out called Yoshy, can you add the "money system" for it?

Yoshy's store hack is still in Beta stage...we wouldn't use it until it goes Gold.

Btw the catepillar wasnt working. It was spelt different in images folder than what it was coded to. Anyway nice hack. More pets would be good. And if you could animate So they move. Also if you dont get 5 make the pets look ill and start to loose hp

i personaly think the money system sould be its own thing not a addon for a stores hack due to the fact theres a number of them being made and not everyone would want to install a set hack to get a other hack fully working.

Well what about people who end up installing the store hack? Then there would be 2 money systems for somebody who has the Pets and Store hacks installed...

[C.Birch]

erm thats true also, not a easy one this, not when theres going end up with like 3 store hacks going by number of people making them.

I guess it will go back just how much time you want to put in to the hack. one the best ways would to having a picking in the settings from pet shop store, and then other stores so people could use a store system made in to this hack or if they already got a stores hack use that but that at a guess would mean alot of coding.

One thought we had was to possibly let the amount of money you have be determined by the health of your pet.
