What is the difference between Brain follow() and pursuit()?

Post by MrChoke »

Still testing brain stuff... One thing I notice is that follow() and pursuit() seem to do the same thing for the AI. He will try to get adjacent to the party above doing any other moves. I am testing with the trickster as well so he could fire his range attack but if follow/pursuit is active he will not unless he is adjacent. The behavior seems identical for both commands. Anybody aware of any difference?

I think I figured it out but I am not 100% sure... It seems pursuit() is less of a guarantee that he will get adjacent to you all the time. pursuit() may also require him to see the party first. With follow(), as soon as I turn it on, 100% of the time he will go after me, whether I am seen or not. With pursuit() it happens sometimes. Anyway, that is my observation so far.
