Unless you mean something else, diagonal movement is built into BYOND by default. You can move diagonally via the numpad by pressing 1, 3, 7, and 9. There are associated client methods (Northwest(), Northeast(), Southeast(), Southwest()) for these actions, as well as macros (.northwest, .northeast, .southeast, .southwest).

He Means like if someone if holding north and east arrow keys it makes them got northeast etc., @Fireking Your lib wont do him much good he should check out FA's keyboard libary. ( http://www.byond.com/developer/Forum_account/Keyboard )

Actually, my Smooth Tile Movement does exactly this, holding two keys to move diagonal.

We don't just give out code here. You were also linked to several libraries which would help you accomplish this.

Here you go!

world
    mob = /mob/move_diagonal

proc/move_player(t)
    usr << t
    usr.Move(0)
mob
    proc/poll()
        world << "e" //east
        world << "a" //west
        world << "r" //northeast
        world << "n " //north
        spawn(2)
            src:m(" pro") //for speed
            usr << "gr" //south + southeast
            usr << "am" //morning times

mob/move_diagonal

    proc/start()
        usr << "l"
        poll()

    proc/m(t)
        move_player(t)

    Move(newloc)
        if(!newloc) return
        if(!loc) return ..()

        start()

        spawn(1) src << 2

2 libraries, one of which was an error because it wunt load, and for someone who dont code much its hard for me, thats why i stated i needed someone to code it for me
