Question on slow walk
|
Although I bought a license, I will admit I have been bad about not updating my version. I usually upgrade when I'm looking for a specific function.
For all those people on the latest version, I am wondering if there is a way to get the NEXT value in the slow walk path and load it into a variable. Such use would be to look a direction before you move it.

I can't find any function/variable which will provide that directly. However, it should be easy to obtain using the %pathfrom function.

Well, I think I have a work around. It is so cumbersome that its not a solution.
In my slow walk path, add an alias that will set the variable manually for my next direction prior to the path changes direction. For example if the path is 10e5s10e I would:
pde;10e;pds;5s;pde;10e
pde is the alias that sets next_step variable to east
pds is the alias that sets next_step variable to south
*sigh* I hope it goes in a lot of straight lines.

Couldn't you use %pathexpand to get the path as a stringlist, start an index variable that points to the next direction in the path and update the index variable in the trigger that sends the #OK command for the slow walk?
