Please do exactly what it says in the installation guide.
This addon is more demanding then normal botmodes and will trigger errors faster then Grind ever would.


A bug in the bot makes it impossible to select the person who is commander in party member follow mode.

Disclaimers

Mesh

You still need a proper mesh for following.
Having a proper mesh is your responsibility. If you don't want the bot to follow the commander in certain areas, you need to remove that area from the mesh!

Following a human around is always dangerous.

I've added many failsafes in the addon, but due to human nature i can not always guarantee that a human will use bot logic. Therefore I can not take any responsibility for you getting banned for either botting too long or the bot doing unusual stuff.
