Companions always wander off
« on: November 15, 2010, 04:43:23 pm »
RRRRG!
How can I keep my companions close? As soon as I step out of fast travel, by companions wander off to attack every critter they can never to be seen again.
Is there any controls to make them stay close or return to me?

Leaving them behind is not an issue. i'm talking about them all shooting away offscreen to go chase down animals. I have to waste a lot of time tracking them down while they go after some stupid camel.   
Is there no way to force them to stay close?

I've found this problem to be troublesome as well. Problem i have however is that i don't realize i lost companions until a little while later then I'm like.. where did my sword guy go??? Sometimes they show up later again which is odd. And many times i was loosing them when they would run off to kill a friendly animal and i wasn't paying attention :(

I've tried sleeping for a long time in towns in hopes they would find me after a few days but... no luck, i guess once you loose them they are gone for good unless you go back to where you lost them at?

Anyone know where they go after you loose them? do they run back to their home town, or do they run to nearest town? or do they just stay lost there forever?
