[solved] Move independent of facing

Module Design
1

Quick question:
Is there a way to make pieces move independent of facing. So that it will always move north, east, west, south and so on in the map regardless of its facing?

I would think that the opposite would be difficult. I don’t know of a way to make it move dependent on facing. Could you explain what you mean exactly?

At the moment it works like this:

If my piece is facing north, the action “move up” moves the piece “north”, if the piece is facing west, the button “move up” moves the piece west.

I want the piece to move north regardless of facing.

I am using vassal engine 3.1 beta 8.

Okay, I understand. Read the help for “Moved Fixed Distance” trait – particularly the example at the bottom. It’s all about the order of the traits.
