Is there a way to disable basic movement and make it so the sprites move diagnolly?

Yes, it is all about parallel procces that reacts when the certain key is pressed and then an action that is "Move hero: Up.left" for rexample.

I'm not certain about the exact coding but know that you will have to add either: 1 a common event or 2, events on every map of the game.

Then make it a paralel proccess and then one of those key imputs. So if left is pressed, Move Hero: Left.

I hope you get it.

If you want 8 way movement get lazy and use XP 

or spend mind boggling hours on the common events
