Followers spending way too much time to "catch up"

Quite often followers takes ages before they catch up.
I’ve counted minutes on several occasions.
This is so incredibly frustrating especially in situations where you store stuff on thralls/pets and return home to do something with that stored stuff.
If this is code or just poor server performance due to poor code, I don’t know, but it’s getting so annoying my caravan rhino is about the be soup so I can carry all the stuff myself…

Steps on how to reproduce issue:

  1. Use follower.
  2. Cover a large distance or cross rivers/lakes.
  3. Wait
  4. Wait
  5. Wait
  6. Follower pops into existence.

Hello @Kruttmusa, thank you for reaching out!

Does this occur at all times and with any follower?

We’ll register your feedback regarding the this situation for the developers to look into.

Hey @Hugo.

I have traveled with several different followers, man and beast alike.
We have traversed great plains and steep hills.
Long hauls, and quick sprints.
Yet, we have not found any patterns other than the ones we leave in the scouring sands…

I have noticed that initiating combat when the follower is nowhere to be found makes them teleport right next to me.
