Full Definition(s)
- call CharacterAppearOnTrailOutOfSightTo((CHARACTERGUID)_Character, (GUIDSTRING)_Target, (INTEGER)_Angle, (INTEGER)_PlaySpawn, (STRING)_Event)
Description
Same as CharacterAppearOutOfSightTo, but _Character will select a position occupied by _Target over the last few seconds (so that if you then make _Character walk to _Target afterwards, it seems as if _Character was following _Target). It will select the furthest cached position of _Target at angle _Angle.
Notes
- This only works if _Target is a party member, as the last positions are not cached for regular NPCs.
- Getting the angle right is hard and error-prone. If possible, use CharacterAppearOnTrailOutOfSightToObject instead.
