how do you get dino's to follow other dinos?

[RabidDragon]

I've done this on accident several times but I don't know how to do it deliberately.

Purpose: setting up guard station by placing a dino on passive and then putting several other dinos to follow it that are on aggressive.

can't find a topic that tells how to do this.

Thanks.

Get on the one you want the others to follow, then whistle follow, they will follow the creature you are mounted on.

thanks!

What Kota said, You can also Whistle Follow All to have all Tamed Dinosaurs in the area follow that dino. It's pretty interesting making Conga Lines of Rexxes.

Effective though :)
Having large numbers of creatures following a single creature often ends up a mess.
Transporting them in a line is far more efficient i've found.
I once moved 40 tames from the snow biome down to the red Obby on the Island using a conga line ^^
It was actually a lot of fun :D

This actually doesn't work unless you're on the dino they were originally following. You have to individually tell them to stop following.

It does work. Occasionally it's buggy tho I have noticed. But when I'm on a Dino with others following that Dino and dismount I can whistle them all to stop or follow

If you whistle all follow they will follow you now and then you can whistle all stop.

Whistling them to follow you works, whistling them to stop following anyone does not. I use the U key for all stop and Y for you stop. I have to use the Y key when a dino is following another.

Ahh maybe that's how I do it.. don't do it often so may have remembered it wrong

Actually the best is when you hop on a dino that you didn't realize was following another and go miles away from the one it was following. The instant you hop off and it just runs away to the leader. It is comical but a bit frustrating haha
