FOLLOWER FOLLOW DISTANCE
Simple add-on to the default follower system. Allows the player to increase or decrease the distance their various followers are from them through dialogue.
SSE Version
GENERAL STUFF
You've probably been sneaking around a Nordic ruin and thought, "Hmm, I'd like to go a bit ahead of my follower and clear out some Draugr stealthily" or maybe walking through town and thought "My follower is more of a friend than a pack mule, wish they could walk closer to me".
If not then this mod is not for you. However, if you have then this mod allows you to ask your follower/creature companion to stay either much closer or much further from you than in vanilla.
It has 4 distances (vary per follower type):
Close: Follower stands almost right behind you.
Normal: Same as vanilla, just a few feet behind you.
Far: Enough space that they won't trigger a trap you successful passed by before you've fully left the trap zone.
Distant: Enough space that you can probably have the follower follow from 2 rooms away in most Nordic ruins.
The mod also attempts to fix the Hunting Bow issue followers have.
THE ISSUE: Every time you enlist any follower through the vanilla follower system, they are given a Hunting Bow and some iron arrows which cannot be taken from them by the player.
REQUIREMENTS
Base Game
Dawnguard
Dragonborn
START-UP
The mod will take effect as soon as its installed. To be safe you should probably dismiss any followers first.
INSTALL
Dismiss your followers.
- Use a Mod Manager[MO, Vortex] and activate the plugin.
UPDATE
Dismiss your followers.
Enter a different cell (enter/exit a building)
- Use a Mod Manager[MO, Vortex] and install over the old files then activate the plugin.
UNINSTALL
Dismiss your followers.
Enter a different cell (enter/exit a building)
- Deactivate the plugin.
KNOWN QUIRKS
In a multi-follower setup. The distance change only affects the first follower in the chain. The rest fallback to the vanilla distance from the follower that precedes them in the chain.
COMPATIBILITY
Any mods that changes the default DialogueFollower and DLC1Radiant quest records will be incompatible.
Follower System Overhauls (ex. AFT, EFF, UFO). I don't have any plans to make them compatible.
If any bugs are found please post them and I'll try to fix them quickly.
