    Agro issues while on mount
    AOE hitting the rider while on mount.

    Not to mention you have to determine where chocobos can go and where they can't. Can chocobos go underground? Can chocobos go into dungeons? Do chocobos use the same terrain collision rules as players? Since there are no zone lines, can you use chocobos inside cities?

    If not, how do you stop players from riding into no-chocobo areas? Do you eject the player off the chocobo immediately? Do you have the game give a warning?

    See, lots of stuff to get settled.
