|Description= | |Description=The '''Range''' Procedure makes the actor try to "range" out ahead (and somewhat to the side) of another actor (henceforth referred to as the "leader"). If the leader is stationary, the ranging actor will wander and idle around the leader. | ||
Also, if multiple actors are ranging with the same leader, they will automatically fall into a double-file line formation. (See below for more info.) | Also, if multiple actors are ranging with the same leader, they will automatically fall into a double-file line formation. (See below for more info.) | ||

*Does the ranging actor try to move at the same speed as the leader? Do they begin running to the "sweet spot" point if they're too far away? | *Does the ranging actor try to move at the same speed as the leader? Do they begin running to the "sweet spot" point if they're too far away? | ||
**Yes on both counts. | **Yes on both counts. | ||
*Is the calculated distance between ranging actor and leader a raw GetDistance check, or some sort of distance derived from pathing between the two? (i.e. Will the ranging actor be ok if the target is just on the other side of a wall?) | *Is the calculated distance between ranging actor and leader a raw GetDistance check, or some sort of distance derived from pathing between the two?

* Can I get the actor to follow behind the leader instead of out in front? (I like the side offset, meander, auto-idle-wander and/or double-file features, which aren't in the [[Follow_(Procedure)|Follow]] procedure). | |||
** Yes, this is easy: just use negative values for the MinDistance and MaxDistance parameters. | |||
