What is it?
This script extends follower movement to make them properly follow the player when the player moves straight, diagonal, or jumps. It also causes the followers to match the player's facing direction during movements (for strafing as an example). This script DOES NOT allow you to control followers and via scripts and such.
How can I use it?
Place this script below "materials" and above "main" in the script editor. The script's only config option is the displacement between each character which is explained in the script.
What does it work with?
If the other script does anything with followers, most likely this script will not work with it. If you're trying to use a follower control script, don't. You'll have to use events instead.
How can I get the code?
Version 1.0a (base script, 1.24.2014) is available from my pastebin account here.
I would like to use this code.

First thing first. I HATE followers. Now that that's out of way.... The main reason I really hated the followers is that they looked so stupid and you couldn't really do fancy sprite movements while you had them following the hero. So I created this script. It makes the followers slightly less painful to look at. I'm almost certain there will be issues with this and I almost get the feeling I'm going to throw this one out, but hey, I could be wrong. As always, enjoy!

That is ok. I know the rest of the Actor 3 Set...
Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
Can someone recommend some fun story-heavy RPGs to me? Coming up with good gameplay is a nightmare! I was thinking of making some gameplay platforming-based, but that doesn't work well in RPG form*. I also was thinking of removing battles, but that would be too much like OneShot. I don't even know how to make good puzzles!
one bad plugin combo later and one of my followers is moonwalking off the screen on his own... I didn't even more yet on the new map lol.
