It sures look nice but I still love RpgMaker games and we can still make same games with RPGMaker.
I'm also using GameMaker Studio 2 that I bought for MAC/PC games creation.
I just need to learn GML.

It's still 4 directional movement again which is quite a bummer (whyyy? it's 2023 ), which means also same collision framework all over again. And I don't want to brute force a 8 one again with all the implications. Sadge. I'm no coder but a simple image based collision layer should have done the trick, ffs.

I suppose you can make it go in various directions, as is the case with many RPG maker games I've played.

Anyway, I'm not into FPS at all, but I do like some 3D games although I still like rpg maker games and the like which are getting better and better made, especially when they use mods.

You can in a way, but solutions are bringing it's own new problems. More likely breaks one or more of these things: pathfinding, collisions, actor/event trigger, followers, mouse pointer, map editor (making use of TileD mandatory)... Depending on which road you take.

Main problem is how collisions (and pathfindings) works, as there is no half collsions tiles check within the engine (full, empty, and one or more of classic cardinal directions) resulting in 'eating' half a tile while moving diagonally. Long story short :

What you have :



What you need :



Or implement a simple image-based collision layer. \o/
