Nice. I like how smooth it is. One bug i see is the follower walking on water.

Other than that good job :alright:

Well, actually; it isn't specifically a bug...I had to script a check for if the follower is too far behind (as that would only mean their stuck on an impassable) and if they are then I turn their "through" attribute on so they can walk to the leader. Right now the distance is set to 4 tiles, I may need to tweak this a little, as 4 tiles is probably a little soon (considering while running the follower keeps 3 tiles between them and the leader)

 

But thats the main reason I scribbled a bunch of water tiles around (to test the follower's getting stuck)

I probably could've done path finding, but this way was much easier (just comparing x and y coordinates and moving accordingly) and I kind this kind of following is a little more realistic (rather than following the exact steps)

 

But thanks :) If you've seen my original caterpillar video then you probably noticed I fixed it up quite a bit. It's simple, and doesn't provide really any functionality, but I dunno I really like it for some reason :)
