Last wiki revision 2020-01-08
Start following a player by their name.
FollowByName("name", exactMatch);
- ("name", exactMatch)
- name : String - The name of the player to follow.
- exactMatch : Boolean
FollowByName("Norrin", true);
- If the given player name isn't nearby or doesn't exist, and exactMatch isn't set, FollowByName picks the closest match from characters nearby.
- It is not possible to stop following someone from a script. The player needs to take action (move, jump, sit, whatever). See the page for FollowUnit.
