DESCRIPTION
===============

A new topic will now be in all the actor’s dialogue “I will follow you!”

Pick this and DO NOT TOUCH YOUR FORWARD KEY! Or use the follow touch spell that is given to you. (I prefer the dialogue myself, more immersive!)

Your PC will now follow the NPC, thru unlocked doors, thru winding passages, around obstacles, up and down stairs, and almost everywhere that a normal NPC can walk while following a path grid.

The mod AI will throttle your PC speed and steer your PC walking and running direction to follow the Actor.
No more tedious synchronized key tapping to follow the actors now! Press your forward key to stop following the actor.

This mod is now out of beta however it may still have issues. Possibly even issues I will not be able to fix. I made this
mod only for personal use. It is based on the work I did for companion following. I HATE summon spells for companions and was determined to have the companion never get lost and require the player to pull the companion out of the air like a magician grabs money from your ear!


Howver if you are to use this mod you must understand that the mod is attempting to replace your MIND with a few lines of "If this then do that". I will pat myself on the back and say I think I dreamed up with some very clever script routines, however it would take more than a script to be able to duplicate the ability of your brain to follow an actor around through all the possible egress pitfalls in the game! If we could tap into the games engine for the thousands of lines of code that control how the actors “follow” this would be much better, but even the game makes “following” mistakes sometimes.

================================
LEGAL
================================

I worked very hard on this mod. But this mod is a product more of creativity, sweat and tears than script writing talent.

DO NOT distribute THIS MOD! You should only find this mod distributed from Tes Alliance! If any other web site is distributing the files for this work they are doing so illegitimately.

You may use my scripts and my other resources for making a mod only as long as it has nothing to do with making the Player

Character follow an actor. I.E do not make a disguised knock off!


If you use my scripts (such as for a companion mod) you must credit me fully and include my "legal" as shown above.
