I'm a player on ProjectPokemon, and I'd so love to fly through the skies of Hoenn. But unfortunately, I just can't because it would break the map and allow me to skip parts of the adventure. I suggested making it available once people complete their adventure on each server, but that was also impossible since riding Pokemon could either be disabled or enabled. It wasn't a perm. I found this extremely frustrating and I doubt I'm the only one.
The current way Pokemon riding works is exceedingly limiting, and I strongly urge the developers of Pixelmon to rework it and other parts of the mod to be more flexible for server owners.
Please, might you address this issue? It's so frustrating to know such a great aspect of the game works in a way that is so limiting! Riding Pokemon needs to be something you can set as a rank perm.
Although, it would be even more convenient if riding Pokemon on land, riding Pokemon in water, and flying on them could each be individual perms because that would allow for even further flexibility in the what server owners can do with their servers.
