Natural Followers for RPG Maker MV

Transform your RPG's party members from rigid, predictable followers into lifelike companions with natural movement patterns and behaviors! This plugin enhances the default follower system with realistic spacing, staggering, idle behaviors, and more. This is only for version MV. This does NOT work for MZ or any versions prior to MV.

Features

• Natural spacing between party members with customizable distance
• Subtle side-to-side staggering for a less robotic formation
• Intelligent pathfinding that prevents followers from walking through each other
• Idle behaviors when the party stops moving (spreading out, wandering)
• Occasional random direction changes when stationary
• Smooth teleporting with fade effects when followers get stuck
• "Stay in place" behavior until the player moves a certain distance away
• Toggle option in the game settings to enable/disable natural followers

How to Use

1. Add this plugin to your project
