Great code addition that stops a leader from walking folks off cliffs and rooftops.
Can this be expanded to not following through other clearly deadly hazards? Like Silt and/or Walls of [Redacted]?
I'm curious -- and it might help the conversation here as I'm on the fence about expanding 'nosave follow': if the leader gets blown off course in a storm, do the followers follow with? I forget now.
Also, if you are shadowing someone, and they climb over a cliff, do you stop shadowing them?

I'll know when I begin to see Templars, Nobles, and other sponsored roles start to periodically fling themselves up the walls of buildings to shake off potential tails.
Maybe Nenyuk can install rockwalls in the foyers of all the high class apartments.

Hilarious.
But part of me wonders... exactly how do you discreetly free climb shadow someone? So I certainly hope so.
how? like so:

IIRC followers stop following when the leader dies. I think this would make death rooms like silt a non-factor here because the followers would stop just short of the silt. As for the silt sea, the rooms above the sea won't kill anyone but only those who "fall" in, and with the recent addition of not following into falling rooms, I'd think this too would be covered.
Good point about the walls of [Redacted]. It'd be good if it was also applied to this.
The death occurs after the room change (due to the death flag, as some of us have personally experienced), so followers would still follow into the doom room. However I think most deep silt/death flag rooms are also climb rooms so it's a bit moot.

Yeah, I think anything that is a 'climb' room is a falling room, and that means you wouldn't follow them in. What about on a Skimmer though? You probably shouldn't have a choice.
