property which forbids to move diagonally #168

just an idea, not a /rfe really.. just in case if you like it: 1) there could be monsters which can not move diagonally (which is interesting property if added with eating walls). 2) an item property which forbids player to move diagonally. Could be a curse or just a property for a VERY heavy armour... as it could be hellish hard to move in heavy armour with a precise angle :)

And a property to make a character moonwalk. And one to move on one foot. LOL.

Replace "diagonally" by northwest/northeast/southeast/southwest. This is stupid, there's no reason to prevent that...

One of the most important thing in rlg is positioning and movement over grids, so such mechanic could be very insteresting and not stupid at all. But I hear you :)
