Proposal
i suggest that tamed pet from the wild grow to the size they are in the wild.
BE'd pets could possibly have a slider to adjust there size during the incubation process or during the egg hatching process to customize them for the owner.
or just make BE'd pets the same size as the pet being cloned.
OR
Pet Size - giving size management control to the CH:
• Revert natural sizes to same as NGE system (larger become smaller)
• Revert the shock collar to its original effect: make pets larger
• Make the shock collar tradeable. It was previously "decreed" here that group content loot should be tradable: https://discord.com/channels/109347519493914624/929448441489272953/1045489507362943096
• Implement the Kashyyykian Beast Muzzle: makes pets smaller, which was custom added to shock collar on resto. This was a TCG loot card item. Would ideally be same difficulty to obtain as shock collar and tradable.
Justification
there would be a more diverse choice of pets to use. BE's would be able to sell more variety of pets
and costomize the size if wanted.
Motivation
the most asked question i get is "what pets are the smallest" or " what pets don't grow to Ginormous size? i will take one of those"
the problem is the pets are very large and get in the way of targeting and other activity's especially in group combat . some take up the whole screen. many people would like to have a Corellian sand panther but it is the size of a small house when grown so it cant be used effectively in a group setting.
pet, tamed and BE'd are very large for some reason. It was not always like that, they used to be the size of the wild version.

Thanks for your feedback, all!

An update on our direction here:

We’re going to add some functionality to bio-engineer to rescale pets within a specific range, sort of like image designing your pets. There will be a system around it we haven’t fully designed, but we intend to allow a mechanism for scaling pet size.
thanks for the update. that is great news!!!
