When using FollowMe.startMission and the callback updateFollowingTarget operation to update the target's lat/lon, I 100% always get error: "Execution of this process has timed out " - this happens regardless if  I make the call anywhere from every 2 seconds to every 100 milliseconds.


This call was successful in simulation and in debugging and I'm trying in a variety of different locations


Does anyone else have the same problem or know what the fix is?

Which drone do you use? Some models of the drone do not support follow me mission.

You always get that, It works even if an error is returned. It can only follow slow targets, so I recommend using virtual sticks instead.

Thanks for your answer, I was guessing that it worked because at every iteration I test FollowMeMissionOperator.getFollowingTarget() method and it changes every time, but the drone doesn't move in the simulator.
You say that it works only with slow targets, I tried to send always the same  location in order to simulate a not moving target, but the drone doesn't move anyway, I guess the problem is somewhere else at this point... you have some working example?

I cant find the code.

Don't forget to start the sim with enough sats, otherwise it will not work.
