4 jcsnider Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Any diagonal movement seen in the past was due to a user created source code modification here: https://www.ascensiongamedev.com/topic/4908-diagonal-movement/#comments   That modification no longer works on the latest versions of the engine, and the author of the mod has not kept it up to date.  Work to have diagonal movement is in progress to be implemented into the engine as a base feature. You can track the conversation and progress in this pull request (pr) which is effectively an official request to bring new code into the engine.  Due to the nature of pull requests, and open source development you can go see the 53 files which are being modified and technically build your own version of the engine with the feature before it's ready... but that would be an option only available to developers.  Currently developers are going back and forth a lot to refine and polish before it is merged and released. We cannot provide an ETA but progress is moving rather quickly, it probably won't be long until is is available in the base engine for everyone.

2 Push Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 There is no diagonal movement in the base engine. There is a PR for it however, so there is a chance at some point it does get added as a feature. Jackson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 AkemiHikari Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 You have two options, wait for it to make it into the base engine or like JC said, modify your own source with the changes from the PR. Awnkei 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
