Also, it shouldn't move the actor -- just turns their direction. I have a custom AI chasing function which reverts to using the old A_Chase logic if the target is out of sight or something is in the way so they can continue to navigate properly, but when they resume using it, they could potentially wind up turning around a whole 180 because that was their last chase direction. |

If I'm reading this correctly, this is a function to force A_Chase to move in a particular direction? If so, sounds like it'd be better off as an "angle" parameter to A_Chase for finer control. For your use case, one can pass in self.angle as the angle param. |

You read it wrong. It's designed only to turn the current angle to a cardinal 45 degrees that is closest to its current angle. |
|
|
In particular, the ChaseDirection (or whatever it's called) integer will be adjusted. The one that goes from 0 to 7 I think...? |

You're saying two different things. Are you wishing to set "movedir" to the current angle (rounded to 45 degrees and converted) or set the current angle to (the angle implied by) "movedir"? (This still seems more natural to be a parameterize function, though you do bring up that the "setting movedir" case brings the challenge of how/if to convert an angle to a 0-7 int. Keeping everything in angles and documenting "hey, this WILL round to the nearest 45, yo" would be the most user-friendly). |

The former. Change the movedir rounded to 45 degrees and converted, yes. |

Why don't you implement such a simple math function yourself? Anything in here is accessible to scripting. |
