how do you make NPC follow you?

Hi

how can you make NPC (companion in this case) follow you when you fast travel / exit building?

the thing is i spawned NPC gave it follow package but it only follows until i leave the cell.

 

and when i come back it doesnt follow anymore, any one know why???

i think it is done through a script

 

i know that the companions are scripted, that if they get too far away from you, they are set to be right near you

don't know if this works on different cells though

 

you may want to look at how the vanille companions were made, to see what needs to be done

ok, looked around a bit, to see if i can find an answer

this is from this thread here:

 

written by GodOfAlcohol

Ive written a script for my follower to follow me into interior Cells. For me it works, so Ill try to remember it ;)

 

ref MySelf

 

begin gamemode

if(MySelf != GetSelf)

set MySelf to GetSelf ; set MySelf variable to the Followers reference

endif

 

if(MySelf.HasBeenHired == 1 && MySelf.Waiting == 0

&& Player.IsInInterior == 1 && MySelf.IsInInterior == 0 )

MySelf.MoveTo Player 50,0,0

endif

end

 

 

 

The follower must have the following variables in his script:

Waiting - indicates he is not following you

HasBeenHired - idicates he already has been hired by the player

If the follower has other variables than these, you'll have to replace them in the code.

 

This script will move the follower in front of the player, when he enters an interior cell.

You'll have to add these code into the script of he follower you want to follow you (i.e. Clover's Script,Jericho's Script etc.)

When theres already a "begin Gamemode" block in the script, just add these contents into that block.

 

Hope it helps ;)

 

maybe this will help
