New to DB, currently using octopus. Can anyone help with a few issues?

hi, sorry if this has been asked before but I'm new to the scene, we all gotta be new sometimes...

Anyways, I followed the Octopus setup guide and got all the keys going pretty well but I'm having a hard time with positioning.

Does octopus have auto-positioning, formations...etc? Let's say originally, all 3 toons were facing north, but one of em gets turned. Now 2 go north when I press forward, and one goes east. Now I must run one back manually and guess the exact facing direction of the turned toon. Is there any way to get around this? Or is octopus limited to that?

Last thing, I'm planning on getting Keyclone, does it have auto-formations...etc?

Formations are not product-specific. Anyone in WoW can use formations -- it's just fancy movement keybindings. Furthermore, most (if not all) of us use /follow for movement/pointing/directional facing.

I read around, I know I should've done that first, and found out about focus and /follow. Gettin the hang of it I guess. Thanks.
