Autofollow problem

[Glocktor]

Somehow my autofollow got messed up, 3 of my toons are suddently following really close, 1 healer is a step behind them, and the 2nd healer is another step beyond the first healer.

I have no idea what happened, I have tried resetting Ogre Follow back to recommended defaults in the Ogre MCP window (then clicked the default button).

I've sync'd all their #'s in the setup window regarding autofollow.

I've made sure all have "auto follow mode" checked on all.

Yet they continue to follow at these odd distances.

Anyone have any other ideas I can try?

Well, I fixed the problem though I know not how. A simple shut down and reboot with a fresh load of ogre fixed the problem, along with a bevy of other problems that were cropping up with autofollow and movement in general.

My guess is that you had the person they were supposed to follow mixed up in your setup window so your priest was following your scout and your scout was following your tank (you) just as an example.

I used to get a problem with characters sharing the first 5 letters in their names.

Example. TANKYBOY and TANKYHEALER. Even if they were 100% absolutely set to follow TANKYBOY, some of them would just randomly follow TANKYHEALER instead.

Never got to the bottom of it, had to move servers so just made sure no-one had similar names !
