[QUESTION] Is fighting while mounted possible?

[Aentium]

Was thinking about making a kind of mounted knight class and i had to ask...

[schlumpf]

Passengers on a vehicle may freely cast, as seen in the Flame Leviathan fight. On an old style mount: No.

Have a look at the followind spell (it was added in Cata though):

Like schlumpf said, it uses an additional npc which your character mounts, but it's in the form of a spell, and the npc disappears once you dismount, similar to an "old style" mount.

So the thing would be to make the mount an npc summoned by a spell and to make it give more movement speed? Is it the only way ?(not that i don't like it).

I think it is. You could probably change the source code, but I never visit that hell

There's already spells you can cast while mounted, like paladin auras, warrior stances, dk presences, hunter tracking.

Code: [Select]

SPELL_ATTR0_CASTABLE_WHILE_MOUNTED           = 0x01000000, // 24 castable while mounted
Stoneharry's spell editor recommended for editing ease, you can just click a checkbox for it.

I have NPC's that fight on standard mounts.

I'd expect he wants players, not NPCs. For NPCs, its fairly simple, a matter of... one flag?
