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 a mesh yourself!

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.
