(MAKE SURE TO GIVE CREDIT WHERE IT IS DUE AND IF YOU WANNA USE THIS NEXTBOTS' CODE OR ANY OF THE OTHER NEXTBOTS' CODING, PLEASE ASK FOR PERMISSION)

A much more enhanced and better version of npc_follower I have made based of suggestions and ideas that people gave on the original one.

This nextbot also comes with features most typical VTF chasers/sanic clones don't have!!

If you wanna see what this nextbot can do, a list is provided below alongside explanations. If you wanna go in blind, stop here.

LIST OF ADDITIONS:

- Multiplayer Support

- Follower Won't Always Know Where You Are And Will Roam Around The Map Instead

- When Noticing A Player, It Will Play a Sound Making Itself Known

- You Can Actually Lose Follower By Either Stunning It Or Running Away From It Fast Enough

- If Follower Loses You, It Will Check The Spot It Last Saw You

- Follower Can Actually Break Down Doors Rather Than Simply Teleporting Past Them

- Follower Can Interact With Stuff (Gates and Custom Doors)

- Follower Will Also Match The Player's Speed Depending On If They Are Walking, Running, or Crouching

- Stunning Follower Will Increase Its Speed

- Follower Bhops If You Do

- If Follower Gets Close Enough, It Will Drop The Act And Charge

- (DOESN'T WORK WITH ALL NPCS) NPC Support Because For Whatever Reason The Original Follower ONLY Worked For Players (It would also mean that if Follower was chasing someone else but yet someone else who is NOT even the target moved, it would cause follower to move anyway but don't worry that's gone now that I fixed it)

- Follower Will Change Appearance When Moving, Standing, Or Crouching (I gave it this because the original had a leftover image of Follower which had it doing a walking motion)

- Lambda Players Support

And of course, don't forget to give some love to the original; this addon wouldn't exist without it: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2881237868
