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

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.
Open the Blizzard binding ui and scroll to the bottom, you will find a category Pets & Mounts.
Do not use the add-on configuration, binding is bugged as of 1.4.4
Alpha version on developement site fix this, or wait for 1.5.x
Ty
I looked and didn't see it. I wait for 1.5.x :-)
Thank you thank you :-)
I like it! Nice addon! Thank you! Especially druid integration is a charm :-)
My personal wishlist:
It is already nicer than my old mount addon, so I will continue to use it anyway. Thank you again!
I don't get the "copy highlighted player's mounts", perhaps the Sets system is what you are looking for. It literally take a snapshot of your current favorites and allow you to give it a name for later use.
I will add revoke pet on the button, It will be alt-click.
For the weighting system it is tricky, as it will require a lot of changes. And I think I will have to stop using the Ace3 configuration panel for pets and mounts lists, too much load, it is not designed for that use. But my girlfriend is asking for that feature too, so it got some good chances to appear in the future. :)
Great! Thanks for the reply!
By "copy highlighted player's mounts" I meant: Player A is on mount X. If Player B targets Player A and hits the mount keybind, and he has the same mount, he will summon mount X. Otherwise the same rules as usual (e.g. random).
Added to my todo list.
I love this addon but it has way to many errors. It errors when I pull up my skills errors and blocks glyph changes :( fix!
I cannot do anything for that, This is an issue with Blizzard interface.
Any addon involving the micro menu can create the taint (Bartender for example), and as they are linked by the libraries to other addons, those addons will also trigger the popup asking you to disable it.
So your saying there is nothing that can be done about it?
No, nothing. Unless disalbing all adons.
And it appear that it is not any addons involving the micromenu directly.
Example showing how it is stupid: Imagine an addon adding the player coordinates to the bottom of the map, open the map, bam taint. And this is because a long time ago there was a button on the micromenu for opening the map.
I love this AddOn so far. Could you add a binding for repair mount?
Edit: Can you also add an option for the random mount key to leave vehicle?
Sure, I will work on that, I had planned to add the leave vehicule option, but it get out of my mind. :)
