How do I set different speeds for x and y with 8Direction

Hi there - brand new user as of yesterday.

I'm playing around with the 8Direction Behaviour - it works mostly fine for what I want to do, but I'm looking to set different max speed and acceleration values for x and y movement.

As an alternate route, I attempted to build my own behaviour using the Custom Behaviour option, but went way down a rabbit hole and ultimately ended up with way more problems and mysteries.

Can anyone help me out?

Is 8Direction modifiable in the way I'd like, or is there an alternate option I'm not aware of?

Thanks in advance.

You can change Vector X and Vector Y.

Here is the easiest (but not very good) way to slow down vertical speed:

On every tick-> Character 8Direction Set Vector Y to (self.8direction.VectorY*0.9)

Thanks for the quick reply dop2000 - I'll start there and figure it out.
