v1.5.4 — Sverm troops stop pushing you off the boat

Sverm troops that followed you piled onto your exact spot, shoved each other and shoved you. One player got pushed into the water. On a boat it was worse.

What went wrong​

The game sends every follower to the spot where you stand and stops it three metres away. A squad of three all aimed for the same point. On a ship that point is on the deck, so the troops drove into the hull and spun the ship in circles.

The fix​

Each troop now has a place of its own, about 4 m behind you and fanned out from the others. It only walks back once it has drifted 3 m from that place, so it stands still instead of shuffling. On a ship the places sit on a ring 5 m outside the hull.

A troop more than 30 m from you stops following and goes home to its nest.

Thralls, the Aswid's thralls and skeletons still follow the way the game makes them. Thanks to the player who reported it.
