Caterpillar script

[Bridgeman]

I think I'm gonna need another caterpillar script. A simple one, that allows party members to follow the player everywhere he goes, the party members should appear and disappear by using the Change Party event command.

I don't want this caterpillar script, because it has two bad glitches, so don't bother posting it:

        return $game_player.screen_z(height) - 1

    super(height)

I suggest that you at least list what those glitches are

Ok, my bad.

1: It doesn't work correctly with my CT CMS. When I change the order of the party in the CMS, all heroes have the sprite graphic from the main hero.
2: It doesn't work with my inside door events. Normally, you'd walk up to a door, it opens, you go through it, it closes. But with this Caterpillar turned on, the player overlays everything when he goes through a door. Meaning, he can walk over everything, walls, stuff, closets, etc, everything is passable.

Here's the CT CMS: http://www.megaupload.com/nl/?d=HMXD8SOX
And here's the event commands for my doors:
