#171 FollowPerson and SetPersonX/Y are incompatible.

[Dennis Rosenfeld]

When A party train of characters moves to a new map in
my game, only the directly controlled character appears
in the correct location. If the chracters start from
the default entry point, there is no problem, however
if i use SetPersonX (or Y) it has no effect on
charcters who are "following"...

you can see this in Trial And error whenever your party
switches to a new map, the other charcters don't
appear right away.

Yeah, remember who is in the party and move them too.

var party_list = new Array();

function AddPerson(name) {
party_list.push(name);
}

for (var i = 0; i < party_list.length; i++) {
SetPersonX(party_list[i], x);
}

Nope. This is a genuine bug I think, not just bad coding on
my part. I've been doing what you suggested all along.
Characters who are in "following" mode cannot be moved by
setPersonX/Y. If I say: SetPersonX(party_list[1], 50); (and
char named party_list[1] is following party_list[0] ) there
is absolutely no effect. if i want to warp the following
party, i have to un-follow them all, warp, and then
re-assign them to be following.

Ok, so SetPersonX/Y shouldn't veto itself if the person is
following someone, also while I'm changing things I'll
probably trying and make FollowPerson not move the person if
they happen to be in the right place anyway.

Maybe SetPersonX should offset the follower's movement
queue?
(So the person following instantly moves that much aswell)
