Movement To Path By Pixels (aka am I dumb?)

So far - I haven't had any of my questions answered so I'm starting to wonder if I'm asking dumb questions...

Anyway here is another one...

I've been searching the forums a lot - and I see a lot of grid based movement and board movement etc - but I think I'm trying to do something really simple and I'm just dumb...

So here is what I'm trying to do:

Have a map - I set the sprite to the target - i move the sprite x amount of pixel each turn to the position - there is no objects or anything that will block it's path.

And here is what I came up with:

VAR speed = 32 (pixels)

SPRITE.X = 10

SPRITE.Y = 10

VAR x 300

VAR y 300

VAR distanceToMove = 0

Every Tick

distance != speed

Round(Sprite.X) != Round(x)

Round(Sprite.y) != Round(y)

---------Action = Sprite set angle toward (x,y)

                  Sprite move forward 1 pixels

                  Sprite Add 1 to distToMove

This makes it move as I wanted - but this sits in the main event and I wanted it as a function which I could pass in X,Y Speed etc - but I couldn't get it to move to the location pixel by pixel turn by turn...

How dumb am I?

Thanks!

Um... Please help?

Your best bet is to post a capx file. Pseudo code isn't your friend here.

Ah!

Okay let's see if this work!https://dl.dropbox.com/u/11212446/test.capx

This does what you have but with two functions. Doesn't need to be two, just showing variations of calling functions.

Thanks

The link appears to be broken though :(

Appears you're using 120 i'm using the purchased Steam Version - Thanks for your time I'll see if I can install 2 versions to check it out!

BRB!

Got it open!

Thank you so much for taking the time to do this - I'm not understanding how it is working - I'll keep playing with it until i understand what it's doing. Thanks again for the help!
