📋 About This Mod
This is an automagic way of setting your companions to follow a bit closer. It is based off the work of MarleyTBlake and their mod Closer followers - Followers stay closer and match your speed. The difference between their bat script and this file is that this file does not require running a bat file either manually or through your StarfieldCustom.ini file.
