Isometric WASD? #17

First of all: thank you for this excellent script.

I have one small issue with it, however. This game uses isometric maps.

Is it possible to make a separate version of this script which makes the WASD 
buttons move your character isometrically? In other words, to make W mean "move 
northeast," W + A "move north", A "move northwest", etc?

Let me explain to you why this seems a good idea to me:

I find that in dungeons which strongly emphasize the isometric viewpoint on the 
world (like the Cathedral), I spend more time pressing a combination of two 
movement buttons than just one. The dungeons seem to be designed with this kind 
of movement (rather than 'literal north-south-east-west movement) in mind.

It would require some testing and tweaking of values. The Corners version of 
the script is pretty close to being true to the game maps. It is just a little 
off and could be tweaked by a few pixels. The real issue is that movement is 
different on stairs and such then it is on flat surfaces in the game world so 
no script like this will ever get a perfect feel for movement in the game.
