Hi guys!
Im making a game were i want the character to be able to move smoothly but i also want a kind of 'snap to grid' effect where he must move inside the cells of the grid and not move around freely. The best way I can describe it is like the pacman movement.
Can anyone point me to a helpfull article on this. I have TGF Pro.

Go to www.clickteam.com and search the forums for "grid movement". There are a HUGE amount of downloadable examples about this at the CT forums.

Everyone wants to know how to do this! The best way is to have an alterable value for a direction, then when you pressed right - set the alterable value to the grid size. Eg.
Repeat while "Right" is pressed - player.alt a = 32  gridsize)
+ player.alt a = 0 -
If player.alt a >0 - player.x = player.x + 1
- player.alt a = player.alt a - 1
Then you can repeat this for all directions using a differant alterable value. But if you don't want to use 4 alterable values, then use flags or negative numbers.
