Double Tap Dash

I've done quite a bit of searching and was a little surprised not to be able to find a script like this already...

I would like to use the shift key for other purposes, but I still want to be able to dash without having to introduce any additional keys that aren't used by default (even if I decide not to use the shift key for anything, I'd still rather use the following method for dashing.)

I would like to make dashing possible by double-tapping the arrow key in the direction you want to dash. Releasing an arrow key would end the dash, but quickly pressing another direction while dashing should not interrupt the increase in speed. It would also be nice if it were compatible with other diagonal movement scripts.

I'm not sure how difficult an undertaking this would be, but I would be eternally grateful to whoever might be able to complete a script like this. I'm sure others would put an amazing script like this to good use as well!

Thank you!

Whoa, Nice idea ~

Just a quick script.

DashDelay_Duration = 60 # Set delay duration here (60 = one second)class Game_Player < Game_Character alias theo_double_tap_init initialize def initialize theo_double_tap_init init_tap_dash_member end def init_tap_dash_member @pending_dash = 0 @pending_dash2 = 0 @dash_delay = 0 @dashing = false end alias theo_double_tap_update update def update theo_double_tap_update update_tap_dash end def update_tap_dash if !dash? @dash_delay = [@dash_delay - 1,0].max end if (Input.dir4 == 0 && @dashing) || @dash_delay == 0 init_tap_dash_member end if input_arrow? && !dash_impossible? && !dash? if @pending_dash == Input.dir4 @pending_dash2 = Input.dir4 @dashing = true else @pending_dash = Input.dir4 @dash_delay = DashDelay_Duration end end end def dash_impossible? return @move_route_forcing || $game_map.disable_dash? || vehicle end def input_arrow? [:UP,:DOWN,:LEFT,:RIGHT].any? {|key| Input.trigger?(key)} end def dash? return false if @move_route_forcing return false if $game_map.disable_dash? return false if vehicle return Input.dir4 != 0 && tap_dash? end def tap_dash? (@pending_dash2 == @pending_dash) && @pending_dash2 != 0 end endHope it helps

I'm not sure about the compatibility

You are amazing! I've tested it with JV's 8 Directional Movement script and there doesn't seem to be a problem! This is exactly what I needed! Thank you so much!

No problem. And thanks for the idea :D
