Are you trying to make a command that follows another player?

moving straight towards a player , would be a issue because of solid objects , and avoiding lava
Would probably need some kind of path finding or object avoidance otherwise it would be dangerous.

Fame Training. Lava isnt too much of a hazard with a level 70 heal pet and if its possible to follow another players path, you wouldnt have to run over objects. But if it just runs toward another player, than i can see where you are coming from and it would most likely just be babysat when doing something else. Like you can put auto-aim on, follow a friend and then just multitask while you run around.

Recoding the movement history of a player is possible, however the speed stat difference between the two players would be a big issue, teleporting would be required a lot of the time to deal with the desynchronization, auto nexusing and rejoining the correct realm would be a challenge, being able to follow the player when it leaves for a dungeon or vault would need dealing with, its complex but don’t let my doubt discourage you

Funny you brought this up just now. I just got of usw2 with my characters (multiboxing). I was testing a new /follow command that I've made to help with multibox synchronization. It is pretty primitive. It just calculates the angle needed to walk to some chosen player and walks that direction till it's within a short distance the player. It does the job well as I don't have to spam the teleport hotkey all the time. I'm going to do some work with a proxy I have working to send updates to all the clients I have running as to the where abouts of my character (to cut down on the client to server to follower client delay). I'm thinking about making a new packet type in the client which the proxy will use to send updates of my leader's position.
@nilly is there a way to send a key from AHK to HKN? because i feel that it would be pretty effective to use a timed teleport to synchronize every 10 seconds but AHK is hard to multibox with and HKN cannot use timers

Whats wrong with pressing the teleport hotkey? I wouldn't want an auto teleport as there are times when it is nice to have the option to teleport available (someone rushes dung boss, an event pops up).

Lol, you could have another player follow someone to lead to their death.
