Wouldn't it be more practical and logical to have a Set OVERALL Velocity action as well along the Compare Overall Velocity condition?

To set the action to an overall of 50, like the condition, should X and Y be 25 each?

I agree. That would be useful.

To set the overall velocity you’d have to do something like:

Set velocity to

100*cos(angle(0,0,self.physics.velocityX, self.physics.velocityY)),

100*sin(angle(0,0,self.physics.velocityX, self.physics.velocityY))

Where 100 is the speed you want to use.
