Follow

Sometimes your character wants to escort a friend, protecting them. Other times your character wants to tail an enemy, following from afar. FOLLOWING To follow someone, type FOLLOW (name). For example, to follow Jane, type: FOLLOW JANE Your character will move immediately after Jane moves, keeping distance. Your character does not need to get permission from Jane to follow her. If Jane successfully hides from your character, or your character fails to keep up with Jane, then your character won't know where to go, and will stop. If your character catches up with Jane again later on, your character will follow her again. To stop following someone, type STOP. STOP ESCORTING To escort someone closely, you'll need permission from that person. First, you need to know each other's names (see HELP GREET) and then the person you're escorting needs to TRUST your character to escort them (see HELP TRUST). For example, if your character's name is Jeff, and Jane wants Jeff to escort her, first Jane types: TRUST JEFF TO FOLLOW After your character has been trusted, you can escort that character by typing ESCORT (name). In this example, you'd type: ESCORT JANE Your character is now escorting Jane. This means a few things: - Jane is now controlling your character's movement. - Your character will move at the same time as Jane. - Your character will be the target of blocks instead of Jane. - Someone shooting at Jane from afar will still manage to hit Jane. To stop escorting, type STOP. STOP Additionally, if someone is escorting you, you can type ESCORT STOP to make your escorts stop escorting you.
