"Move To Point" and "Always Run"

Joemcr

During one section of my game I want the player character to run everywhere. I am using Player: Constrain > Always Run. This works for general movement and hotspot 'walk to marker' movement, but does not override Character: Move to point actions with Move speed set to Walk. Is there an easy way to make it do that?

I realize I could use a variable check to decide between two Character: Move to point actions, one with Move speed = walk and one with Move speed = run, but I use a lot of these actions, so I am checking to see if there is an easier solution before I take on that task!

Thanks

This should be possible with a simple script that hooks into the OnCharacterSetPath custom event to modify the Player's isRunning variable based on their movement lock:

using UnityEngine;
using AC;

public class RetainPlayerMoveSpeed : MonoBehaviour
{

    private void OnEnable () { EventManager.OnCharacterSetPath += OnCharacterSetPath; }
    private void OnDisable () { EventManager.OnCharacterSetPath -= OnCharacterSetPath; }

    private void OnCharacterSetPath (Char character, Paths path)
    {
        if (character == KickStarter.player)
        {
            if (KickStarter.player.runningLocked == PlayerMoveLock.AlwaysRun)
            {
                character.isRunning = true;
            }
            else if (KickStarter.player.runningLocked == PlayerMoveLock.AlwaysWalk)
            {
                character.isRunning = false;
            }
        }
    }

}

Yep! That's done the trick! Thank you very much, Chris
