Hello it's me again, how to prevent following pokemon to act weird when there is water like I've made a bridge with water going under it and when I walk on it my pokemon is doing weird stuff xD.
Thanks.

Does this work for V18 and V18.1?

Yes, but use the script updated by the Golisopod user. I will quote him here:
I've fixed alot of issues that the Following Pokemon Script had when being used in v18. I've also added other fixes like the followers Sliding on Ice and Ledge Fixes too. I've also added all of the ALWAYS_ANIMATED to the list for all Pokemon from Gen 1-8. I'd recommend people use this until an official v18 version is released. Here it is.

Also here's a list of Overworld Graphics I have compiled for Gen 1-8 (Upto Urshifu). (These aren't my Graphics, so please don't credit me but credit the individual artists)


Alternatively you can get them from here. Its included in these resource along with other goodies.

EDIT: After nosing around in the script I found my answer.

Hello!

I was wondering if there was a way to have pokemon stop following you in certain areas (E.G when you enter a house the pokemon wont follow you inside but when you exit it will follow you again.)

Noticed something funny with following pokemon, when you have a pokemon with a form:

I had a galarian slowpoke and when I pressed "ctrl" to take back my galarian slowpoke and pressing "ctrl" again to put it outside he was a normal slowpoke x)

So it's been a long while but I have a serious question:
I have both follower and pokéride, how do I hide the follower while doing an activity, say, surfing?

The version of the script here is for v16.2 which is 4 years old now! I'd recommend not using this version and using

I've rewritten almost all of the original Following Pokemon script by help14 and mej71 to be compatible with v18 and take advantage of all the features of it. I've also fixed many of the bugs the original script, added several new features and improvements, and added built-in compatibility with a few common Essentials scripts, all to improve the script vastly from its predecessor.


You should use this version instead.

In the above mentioned link, I have linked a new script which fixes this bug.

is there a way to blacklist certain pokemon like legendaries so that they don't appear walking behind you I know most people probably like to have a huge legendary walking behind them but it looks weird to me in my game

The above mentioned script has all of this functionality inbuilt.

If you wanna add more exceptions then you can easily create new conditions. Many examples have been provided in the script. Make sure to check it out!

Am aware of the EX version for v18, and is super promising, but sort of in a midground using v17, as still get some annoying bugs (mostly the positioning and following breaking after any kind of transfer, even to the same map) and cant update to the v18/downgrade that as its got a ton of v18 stuff.

this mentions the main bugs from it, it fixes on reload but that cant be useful. it seems to like mimic the player one for one but cant be on the same tile so glitches when you move (?)

So about the cycle pokemon thing, which key is it supposed to be that triggers that feature? I've heard conflicting reports and hit every key on my keyboard but nothing seems to trigger it. I'm on v17.2 if that matters.

Good news for people not updated to the v18 version; i figured out the bug when transferring.

find where it mentions "$NeedFollowerUpdate = " (should be false by default)
remove this, and then in the "def command_end" remove the entire section of:
Code: 
    if $NeedFollowerUpdate
      events=$PokemonGlobal.dependentEvents
      $PokemonTemp.dependentEvents.updateDependentEvents
      leader=$game_player
      for i in 0...events.length
        event=$PokemonTemp.dependentEvents.realEvents[i]
        $PokemonTemp.dependentEvents.pbFollowEventAcrossMaps(leader,event,false,i==0)
      end
      $NeedFollowerUpdate=true
    end
and boom! also in "command_201" just below remove the "$NeedFollowerUpdate=true"
that should fix it, and fix aswell for regular followers and not just pokemon (because it also broke them)

Hello! ^^ , I'm new to this Script language but I'm trying to understand how to configure basic things, I'm using the Pokémon Follow script
I've been trying to modify this area because I want the accompanying Pokémon to be one more square behind the trainer and I haven't been able to, it would be very helpful to know what I should do to modify it.

¨class DependentEvents

def pbFollowEventAcrossMaps(leader,follower,instant=false,leaderIsTrueLeader=true)
d=leader.direction
areConnected=$MapFactory.areConnected?(leader.map.map_id,follower.map.map_id)
# Get the rear facing tile of leader
facingDirection=[0,0,8,0,6,0,4,0,2][d]
if !leaderIsTrueLeader && areConnected
relativePos=$MapFactory.getThisAndOtherEventRelativePos(leader,follower)
if (relativePos[1]==0 && relativePos[0]==2) # 2 spaces to the right of leader
facingDirection=6
elsif (relativePos[1]==0 && relativePos[0]==-2) # 2 spaces to the left of leader
facingDirection=4
elsif relativePos[1]==-2 && relativePos[0]==0 # 2 spaces above leader
facingDirection=8
elsif relativePos[1]==2 && relativePos[0]==0 # 2 spaces below leader
facingDirection=2
end
end
facings=[facingDirection] # Get facing from behind
facings.push([0,0,4,0,8,0,2,0,6][d]) # Get right facing
facings.push([0,0,6,0,2,0,8,0,4][d]) # Get left facing
if !leaderIsTrueLeader
facings.push([0,0,2,0,4,0,6,0,8][d]) # Get forward facing
end
mapTile=nil
if areConnected
bestRelativePos=-1
oldthrough=follower.through
follower.through=false
for i in 0...facings.length
facing=facings
tile=$MapFactory.getFacingTile(facing,leader)
passable=tile && $MapFactory.isPassable?(tile[0],tile[1],tile[2],follower)
if !passable && $PokemonGlobal.bridge>0
passable = PBTerrain.isBridge?($MapFactory.getTerrainTag(tile[0],tile[1],tile[2]))
elsif passable && !$PokemonGlobal.surfing && $PokemonGlobal.bridge==0
passable=!PBTerrain.isWater?($MapFactory.getTerrainTag(tile[0],tile[1],tile[2]))
end¨
