New updates to the game do seem to make this mod mess up more than it used to. Sometimes companions stop following and have to be told again. I think once I had a party glitch so if freed from control it would just stand still. Though that may have been a vanilla game glitch. I disbanded and recreated that party.
Just know if probably won't be perfect. It works well enough for me for now.
I'd like to add a dialog option to order them to follow or stop following when you talk to them. I'd also like to add a feature where they stop moving if you're nearby and you click on their party. Currently if they have higher speed then you do, they can be hard to catch to talk to lol. You can trap them against a town or cliff or something when that happens.
This mod fixes Companion Party Control for game version 1.8.0, allowing you to order companion-led parties to follow you, go to a town, stay in a town, etc. It's a stability-focused fix for players on that specific version, with 242 endorsements and 15,196 downloads.

✅ Pros
- Directly fixes a broken feature for 1.8.0, so your companion parties actually obey orders again.
- Simple and focused—does exactly what it says without adding bloat.
- Decent community trust: 242 endorsements and 15k downloads show it's been used and appreciated.
⚠️ Cons
- Only for version 1.8.0—if you're on a different version, this won't help you.
- No details on what exactly was broken or how the fix works, so you're trusting the author blindly.
