Abstract
Allows characters or objects to be moved very slowly
Dependencies
AGS 2.71beta5 or later
Functions
slowmove.obj(Object *o, int x, int y, int delay, optional BlockingStyle)
Moves an object from current position to x,y with delay
game cycles between each pixel moved
slowmove.cha(Character *c, int x, int y, int delay, optional BlockingStyle)
Moves a character from current position to x,y with delay
game cycles between each pixel moved
Configuration
This module uses an internal array, which limits the number of
things that can be moved at once. The default size of this array
is 10. This can be varied by cahnging the value of MAX_SLOWMOVES
in the module script header.
Caveats
No animation or anti-glide mode: this must be done by user
ignores walkable areas
