Allow an object to move in a rectangular pattern.

Authors and contributors to this community extension: 4ian, VictrisGames.

Allow an object to move in a rectangular pattern. By default, movement will slow down when going around corners, but this can be changed to always use a constant speed.

Example uses:

• Moveable platforms
• Enemy movement patterns

Properties:

• Center of movement, X position
• Center of movement, Y position
• Horizontal distance
• Vertical distance
• Horizontal speed
• Vertical speed
• Use constant speed (object will not slow down at corners)
• Use counter-clockwise direction

Tips:

• Set the CenterX and CenterY values to move the object
• For horizontal movement only, set vertical distance to 0
• For vertical movement only, set horizontal distance to 0
• Use conditions to apply logic based on the direction the object is moving. For example, setting the animation.
