Dragonfly didn't wander properly

This isn't a new bug in this beta, but now that we've finally finally finally finally got the fix for dragonfly behavior, can developers look at this too? please?

Simply put, Dragonfly has a wander behavior, where she wanders around her territory. But it was not triggered properly, and in the game she would just stay in one position after spawned without any movement.

However, if her reloaded (by players leave and back), her wander behavior will be triggered.

  

I don't know if she should be wander, but apparently one of them is a bug. Either she should have started wandering after spawn, or she shouldn't have started wandering after reload.


Steps to Reproduce
  1. close to Dragonfly spawner
  2. Dragonfly stay
  3. reload
  4. Dragonfly wander

A fix for this has already been included in the last hotfix.

Dragonfly won't wander in any situation anymore. Most player are not used to her wandering since that was a rare behavior, so making the wandering work would be a change at this point, not a bug fix.

So, after sitting on this for a bit, could this possibly be reconsidered?

I feel gutting this entirely makes her a lot less... lively, and takes away something the main land could use a lot more of. 
Could this be fixed and kept, BUT have Dfly's aggro range be reduced to her actual arena, so that way she can roam a bit, feel more alive and part of the world, AND prevent unwanted/accidental aggro if she were to go out fitting a stray mob?

It's nigh impossible to get her to wander normally but it's still a bit sad seeing it go when it could be reinvigorated.

While this is understandable reasoning, it's inconsistent with changes to Vargs, who previously would stand perfectly still but were updated more recently to wander around. If that was an acceptable change to the behavior that most players were used to, I think this would be too.

This could absolutely be reconsidered, just not at this time.

Vargs received behavior changes during their active development period (the addition of Possessed Vargs), a change to Dragonfly at this time would be an isolated change. We'd rather change this during an update that changes Dragonfly (not planned) or a QoL update. Note that this is not a promise.
