It shouldn't be too hard to either
A) Try and salvage some code from the pinpointers to make this feature a thing
B) Have the GPS check to see if the position of the target has updated. To reduce lag whilst maintaining effectiveness when tracking at close range, I propose the following:
The rate at which the GPS checks the position of the target should be proportional to the distance between the GPS and the target. As an example, if you're really far from the target, it should probably check every 10 or so seconds, but if you're super close, it may update once every half second or so. Accuracy isn't needed at long range, but it is at close range.
