"- Improved companion/henchmen AI "

"- Improved companion/henchmen AI and gave them the ability to move ahead (using the "Attack" command.)"

One of my favorite improvements I've seen in a long time!

Mostly effects factions with controllable NPCs, however current usages I've found are

-Allows for significantly easier placement of Guards, no more outskirts shuffle (or at least, less of it)

-Once moving through a door, you can order them to move forward, preventing either you or the NPC from being trapped behind it

-For Pack oxen, will make crossing bridges significantly easier

-Obvious RP benefits of scouting, formations, etc.

-If you're patient enough you can even have them walk along side you! -Just need to click attack nearest every 5 seconds or so.

Rest in Peace Dumitru Nistor

Glad you liked it!

Another improvement is that the AI should be much better at protecting you when using the Guard Me command.
