Follow module

[Volte6]

Description

This removes the old follow command and creates a new module called follow with extended functionality.

It also adds a MobIdle{} event that can be handled for when mobs are idle.

Mobs out of alignment with players won't let players follow them.

Changes

• Added mob and user follow commands
  • Includes unfollow/follow stop, and lose/follow lose
• Players can now follow mobs, not just other players.
• Mobs can now follow players/mobs, a behavior that did not exist previously.
• Added helpfile, keywords, etc. into module
• Removed character followers slice and functions that use it.
• Adjusted listener adding logic for default "add to end" behavior
• mob commands now look for any keyword aliases that are defined to use.
• Fixed up some bugginess with keyword aliases that was appending a space to the end, causing things to break.
• Added MobIdle{} event and handlers. Moved some of the existing mob idle calculation to a new handler function.
• follow module abort MobIdle{} event if mob is in the middle of a follow behavior.
