Follower units have a following glitch

[HedgeHog builder]

What is supposed to happen:
The follower is supposed to be following the mouse-controlled player but suffers from glitches.

Glitch 1
The follower does not move vertically. That is, it does not move up and down regardless of where the player is.
Glitch 2
The follower only follows you to the right if you are below it.
Glitch 3
The follower only follows you to the left if you are above it.

If you are on the same vertical plane, it does not do anything.

Where to look

Code: Select all

	for p,v in ipairs(Spawned_Units) do
	local speed = 150
	if v.x > follow.x then
	v.x = v.x - (speed*dt)
	end
		if v.x < follow.x then
	v.x = v.x + (speed*dt)
	end
		if v.y > follow.y then
	v.x = v.x - (speed*dt)
	end
		if v.y < follow.y then
	v.x = v.x + (speed*dt)
	end
	end

Guesses where/what it might be wrong
In the unit control section.
It could be a problem with my 'end' commands, stopping the program from completing other tasks

Whole code

In the snippet you posted your vertical checking if's are changing the 'x' values. Swap these to 'y' and it should fix all your issues.
