Adds some helpful features I have not seen in other followers mods... I never tried EFF so maybe I am wrong. xD
Works for up to 8 followers. If you have ideas for stuff you want followers to do I am open to ideas. My intention is to have this mod accompany follower overhauls and make followers more useful!

Changelogs
Version 2.0
Fixed chopping wood scene.
Added shouts for iAFT follow, wait, relax and sleep.
Version 1.02
Reworked chopping wood scene so the player could not exploit it by toggling on and off repeatedly to gain 12 wood.
Now your follower walking to the block does not consume the chopping time.
The chopping time has been increased to 1:15 (one minute fifteen seconds).
While chopping, every 25 seconds your follower will gain 4 wood or the maximum amount their carry weight allows based on current inventory weight and the weight of Firewood01. If they hit their carry weight limit, the chopping will end and they will walk back to you and notify you how much wood they chopped and that they are at their weight limit. Before it would check only once when your follower returned to the player or if you toggled it off by calling your follower back, which was an exploit.
Version 1.01
Had to fix the way I was using FormLists, I thought they could hold null objects and I could use just one list for every follower but apparently they don't work that way. I should have read the wiki haha. Before it would lose track of who was equipped with what weapons and it could actually give your followers new weapons when you would enable weapon use again. In my game, Lydia was holding the Axe of Whiterun when I disabled unarmed combat, when I re-enabled weapon use, it equipped Hjoromir with the Axe, when prior he had nothing equipped. This mess is fixed now.
Version 1.00
Adds Follower Unarmed Combat, Torch Toggle, Just Watch Toggle and Closest Follower Chop Wood Shouts to Player
Adds 4 shouts to the player for commanding followers. I hate having to talk to followers to order them or even having to aim on them is too much so I feel like shouts is the ideal way to command followers.
1. Toggle Chop Wood Shout: The closest follower will be chosen to chop the party wood. The scene lasts a minute and your follower will receive 12 firewood for the effort. Good for mods like Frostfall and why should the leader of the party do all the menial work? We all have a Hjoromir in our group. A chopping block has to be in the area (distance <= 2000 units) for it to work and your follower has to have an axe... (Axe01 in the Skyrim.esm weapon records). Nice to have your followers do something productive while you are crafting or shopping or whatever it is you do. Just send them to chop wood and go about your business, they will do it and return to you when done. THIS HAS BEEN BROKEN BUT NOW FIXED IN 2.0!
2. Toggle Torches Shout: Do you hate it when you are sneaking around and have to take your follower's torches away to not kill your immersion? Yeah, sure the enemies don't react to torches but it just looks dumb when you are sneaking around and your followers have torches... so this shout will take the torches from their inventory and it will keep track how many it takes away via a global variable so when you enable torches again it will give them back their correct amount of torches. Obviously if they pick up a torch after the fact it will allow them to use torches so you would have to retoggle it in this rare case.
3. Toggle Unarmed Combat Shout: For those times you want to just beat the absolute shit out of someone but not kill them. This will set their combat style to unarmed and using it again will reset their combat styles to use their weapons again. Setting combat styles does not work mid combat so you have to use this before combat starts.
4. Toggle Just Watch Shout: So you can fight alone and your followers will stand around and applaud.
5. Now in 2.0 added shouts for All followers to wait, relax, sleep or follow and also shouts to order individual targets to do the same.
Compatible with any other mod! Just use common sense, like if another mod is doing something with a follower don't stand next to that follower and then ask him to chop wood for you... etc.
