help on lost moving pet.- lost penguine

Silly enough but it happened.

I bought a penguine from a shop. This thing is moving.
Before I succeed to set it up, it left away and it seems I lost it. Most possibly walking around the simes somewhere.

The problem is that since then I get every tenth of a second a warning message from the object..

So my screen gets full of the warning.

Is there any way that I can locate this penguine (so I could delete it) or even better to mute this warning message?

I read my thread and laugh!

LOST PENGUINE WANTED DEAD OR ALIVE

thanks in advance for any answer

If you get a warning that an object can't move into parcel "xxx" at "yyy" then you hve enough info to locate the wandering penguin. You could also hope auto-retrun takes care of it, but if it moves fast enough it may never be in one place long enough.

Also, check to see if the thing came with instructions. Sometimes, they have a 'kill/locate' function. Not sure if this particular one has it, since I prefer to avoid anything that can easily get away from me.

*nods* If the thing is giving you the "I can't enter XXX at YYY" then you should be able to get a last fix on it. Also, if you look on the mini-map, objects owned by you will show up as a light bright blue, so you could just go to the last known and look from there for it.

thanks for the answers!

Actually it wasn't such a message about can't enter another parcel. This would be easy. It was a warning of not setting up patrol points so it could patrol in specific route. This was not setup, the penguine left and for some reason (bad script maybe?) , I was getting this message.

After some hours out of SL, I came back now and the message is gone. So everything is fine.

Never ever again I will put moving pets in my land!


PS I was thinking to leave one of these things free to walk around and set up a game. If you find this penguine you get 1000 lindens or something like that.

it would be fun!!

If the messages stopped, did you check if it didn't get returned already?

One day it'll probably wander off-world and come back to you when you least expect it .

Has anyone called the pet catcher?

This had me giggling. I have a dog that patrols my land from time to time (when I remember to let him out) and one day, he buggered off to someone else's parcel when I accidently deleted his patrol marker. I also got the dog spam saying "I am lost...come get me at X, Y, Z). This went on forever as I couldn't locate the darn coordinates...but eventually, he was found. Good luck with your penguine

I found 2 of them somewhere in the sim (after the message was stopped). They had entered the land next to mine and it was really difficult to find them out.

Also the blue signs on the mini map were arrising only when you were close enough to them.
Since I own 3/4 of the sim, it was really easy to get lost in a land with mountains and slopes.

So now, there is none left, I am more confident for the future without messages.


ABout the pet catcher, if there is not one, after what happened, definetely we need one.

This is the funniest that has happened to me in SL till now.
Wanted penguine, dead or alive

Several Months ago I Had some wandering Insects created for me. For the most part they wander randomly within a 20 meter radius of the Place where i originally place them, But occasionally they will Zoom off the Sim. Luckily, Most have been returned. I don't know where the others ended up, and as far as i Know they are still wandering about somewhere.

They are poisonous, but fortunately. it only takes effect if you are wearing a certain Piece of jewelry.

Let me know if you see one.

Angel.

Angel how can you say that? How will I be able to sleep tonight knowing there are poisonous insects roaming around??
