Forcing A character to move while still being able to control them?

[WildCard]

Ive seen a few minigames where a character or event is continously pushed in a certain direction, but you still can controll direction by pressing left/right keys. For example, Master of The Wind's Floating Jar, You must get it around obstacles without hitting anthing, yet it floats downward. Wondering if anyone can help.

hmmm, something like this?

@>Conditional Branch: The left button is being pressed
..@> Set move route: player (Ignore if can't move)
....$> Move Left
Else
..Conditional Branch: Rgw right button is being pressed
..@> Set move route: player (Ignore if can't move)
....$> Move Right
..Branch End
Branch End
@> Wait for move's completion

I think WildCard means, the event moves regardless of button pressing.

What you could do is set the event to move "1 Step Forward, Repeat Processing, Ignore if Can't Move." Then create a Parallel Processing with "Conditional Branch: Right button is Pressed, Set Move Route: Event: Turn Right", and repeat with all the buttons. That should do the trick.

EDIT:
Well, that's for all 4 directions. If you want it to move in only one direction, have the Custom Move Route be "Move Down, Repeat Processing, Ignore if Can't Move." Then use 007snicker's commands.
