Command : FOLLOW

Expert

[##:##] follow <SHIP/FLEET>

You use the follow command to get a ship to use the same sailing path as another ship. At each update, ships with a sailing path autonavigate along the path that was set for them, and ships that are set to follow that ship will also be navigated along the same path. Telegrams notify you of arrivals or problems encountered while attempting to follow the path.


Radar operates continuously as the ship moves along the path, constantly adding sector information to the known world map.
Ship movement is performed before mobility is increased. This insures that after the update, ships with a sailing path will still have some mobility so that you can always manually navigate to some extent.
You may follow any ship which is owned by you or a friendly country.
