Piper stopped following

[kevzero]

I was settlement bundling when I noticed Piper was no following. I found her in one of the houses I made, but would not follow me. She does everything a companion should do just fine I command her to move to a spot, she moves to the spot tell he to inspect something, she does it We sleep in a bed, she sleeps in a bed and the lover embrace perk comes up , I pull my weapon out, she pulls her out. Talking to her works fine, and she gives munchies per usual. She just will no longer follow me. I try to command her to follow she will just stand there. If I Fast travel or enter/exit a building, she’s not there. I’ve tried dismissing her for other companions, the game will give me the options to send her to a settlement/publik occurrences, but she will dismiss as she would and just stay right where she is. I have no problem, so far as I’ve seen, with the other companions. Tried toggling ai, killing and resurrecting her, enable/disable, resetactor, changing faction, and disabled mods; nothing seems to get her to follow me

Does it give you the option to say âFollow me?â If not, then it has to be a mod conflict or a glitchâ¦..

I click on her and it gives me the standard options to Talk, Trade, Cancel, and Follow. The first three work just fine, but if I choose follow she responds affirmatively then doesn’t do anything but stand there. I can command her to move to a spot just fine, but she won’t follow

Must be a strange glitch in the game then. Have you double-checked your mod order, by chance?

A companion's follower ai package should be the FollowersCompanionPackage [FormID: 0002A101]. It seems like one of your mod (or maybe just a base game quest) overwrites it to a non-follower ai package.

I don't know which mod or quest is the culprit but I can tell you how the see Piper's current ai package.

Enable debug logging: add these lines to your Documents / MyGames / Fallout4 / Fallout4Custom.ini:

[Papyrus]

bEnableLogging=1

bEnableTrace=1

bLoadDebugInformation=1

bEnableProfiling=1

sDefaultLogOverlay=Papyrus

Create a script with a global function: create a new PSC file "GlobalFunction.psc" in Fallout4/Data/Scripts. Compile this code:

Scriptname GlobalFunctions

Function GetCurrentAIPackage(ObjectReference Ref) Global
      Debug.Trace("GlobalFunctions Script: " + Ref + "'s Current AI Package: " + (Ref as Actor).GetCurrentPackage() + ".")
EndFunction

Launch the game, load a save game, open the Console and type: CGF "GlobalFunctions.GetCurrentAIPackage" RefID.

RefID is the reference ID of Piper (so it should be: CGF "GlobalFunctions.GetCurrentAIPackage" 2F1F).

Open the log file (Documents / MyGames / Fallout4 / Logs / Script / Papyrus0.log) and search for "GlobalFunctions Script". You'll see the FormID of the Piper's current ai package. Open your mods in FO4Edit and search for this FormID.
