Co-Op ghost on a leash (camera fix)

Description
Short description
When playing co-op, this mod allows dead players to "glue" themselves to a living player.

How to use
As a dead player (co-op ghost), press the "use item" button to toggle being glued to a living player.

Why I made this mod
I play a lot of co-op, and I find it frustrating when I die and then I have to follow the living players around.
If I don't follow them, then they can be in trouble in big rooms, since the camera counts me as a player when deciding where to be.
Sometimes this can cause the living players to take damage or even die.
I find this especially frustrating since most co-op ghosts are next to useless. I sometimes just want to put my controller down and watch, or go do something else.
Other times I want to play but can't keep up with the speed of living players, and I disrupt their game just by being slow.

If it were up to me, I would make the camera ignore dead players and focus on the living. But I don't think there's a way to access the camera when modding.

It works for me.
If you could open a discussion and describe the issue, I can take a look.

Yea, I would use it if they were leashed close enough to stay on screen by a visible leash.

I've gotten to test it its great! :) yea something like Samson's chains might be cooler and better looking but honestly this is great as is, i don't have to fight for camera control anymore, and when you're dead u can just focus on matching the persons shooting directions its great.:reheart:

No, there is no visible leash.

What the mod does is it sets the position of the coop ghosts to the living player they are "leashed" to, so even if there were a leash you wouldn't see it as they are at the same position.

I did it like this because it was the most straightforward solution, but maybe a real leash would be cooler.
Perhaps something like how "Samson's Chains" works, but shorter ?
I'll think about it.

Does it have a visible leash like the picture or is it invisible?

Sorry to hear that.
Can I ask you to create a new "Discussion" so we can figure this out ?

This mod doesn't seem to work properly for me. The first co-op death didn't go on a leash, but then the second one did. However that was the only time it worked at all in the whole run.
