Follow System

http://maplestory.nexon.net/News/News.as...ageIndex=1

MapleStory is about many things--adventure, excitement, fun, but most of all it’s about friends! Friends are the lifeblood that makes MapleStory live and we’re always looking for new ways for friends to help one another.

Coming on July 14th, the MapleStory Follow system is designed to make helping friends easier than ever before. The Follow system is simply a way to set your character to follow another around without your intervention. It’s a great way for a friend to show you the best way to get to that secret hunting spot or how to get through that dungeon unscathed or just to take a nice walk through a Maple World spot of your choosing!

Here’s how it works:

1. To start following another character, simply right-click on the person you’d like to follow around. A pop-up window will appear.

Please note that the other character must be standing on a flat surface and be within 10 feet for the system to work. The Follow system will not work on characters that are on ladders or hanging from ropes.



2. Left-click “Follow.”

3. The person you are trying to follow must accept your request. A pop-up window will appear on their screen asking if they’ll allow you to follow them. They must click “Yes.”

4.Your character will begin following the other character around.
a. If you perform any action while in “Follow” mode, the mode will be canceled and your character will stop moving. To start “Follow” mode again, return to step 1.

Note 1: The Follow system may be canceled if players attempt to travel through certain portals.
Note 2: The Follow system may be disabled on certain maps.

It’s that easy! Now get out there and help some friends!

This ought to be fun.

Why do I feel like this is going to turn into "stalk central"?

FUN STUFF MAN. Never expected it to come to GMS so soon.

I would not want that creepy looking thing following me

On a more serious note, this is pretty neat I guess, although...

A pop-up window will appear on their screen asking if they’ll allow you to follow them. They must click “Yes.”

I hope that doesn't interfere with whatever the person is doing because that could easily sabotage someone...

We figured out in JMS (who made it) that you can abuse JQs with this. You can clear 1 for 2. Taking damage disconnects the follow, though, so in something like ZJQ it wouldn't be as useful.

RELEASE THE W7 COMPATIBLE CLIENT PLEASE. EITHER THAT OR CHAOS ZAK/HT.

Do you think this will let us follow a person without taking any damage from monsters? If so, this would be helpful to bypass certain maps with strong monsters to reach a desired training ground (eg. to bypass the Crimson Guardians to enter Crimson Wood Keep)

Follow system hmm seem like a fun feature.

Oh yey.
Does the person following you get hit while in this mode?

Question answered by Erich.

be within 10 feet for the system to work

Tried converting this to maple feet o.O

Sounds kinda neat.

Leeching made easy.

No, it didn't. Remember? When we were doing that one holiday jump quest, I auto-followed you and the only time it separated between us was when you fell and took damage or when you disconnected.

Now you wont be able to travel henesys without millions of offers of noobs wanting to follow you.

This seems so abusable if the person recieves a chat box asking if they accept being followed.

This is gonna be so fun to use.

How does this work with Teleport, Assaulter, Haste, Flash Jump, etc?

That will separate the connection.

Pffffffffffft I can't wait to see the number of people stalking X Henewhore. Gonna unload a Balrog bag on them on a noob character and watch the lols fly.

That will separate the connection.

PERFECT, I have an antistalker measure.
