Instant grid movement too fast.

I'm trying to get my player and other entities to move tile by tile instantly rather than gradually in a way that's identical to this demo: construct.net/en/free-online-games/boulder-dash-type-game-demo-70324/play

My problem is while I've achieved it in various ways, using the keyboard (key) is down condition activates that far too many times in the span of a second making it zoom off the screen.

If you're using the TileMovement behavior, you can change the Speed X and Speed Y to however fast (or slow) you want the player to move.

In addition, you can turn off the Default Controls and then simulate the four directions with on key pressed - that way it will take one key press for each movement, instead of accidentally holding the key down and zooming across the screen.

Hope that helps.

Thanks for replying, I already had that however its a more gradual movement rather than a snap to the next tile based one which is what I'm looking for.

That fixed my problem, thank you very much, great demo by the way.
