Auto Move Plugin

This unofficial TaleSpire mod allows mini to be moved along pre-recorded paths in either Real Time or in a Turn Based capacity. The pre-recorded paths can be created using the UI and then applied/removed to/from minis as needed. A pause/unpasue function is included and the RealTime or TurnBased mode can be switched at runtime.

Install

Use R2ModMan or similar installer to install.

Configuration

In addition to the trigger keys for the various plugin functions the following configurations are available:

Step Delay: The number of seconds between each update of movement in Real Time mode. Step Mode: The mode, Real Time or Turn Based, that the plugin starts in.

When in Real Time mode, each step delay, the minis are moved to the next entry in their path. This means that this is the update frequencey but not really the speed. While decreasing this value will increase the speed of all the minis (and vice versa), since two steps can have any distance betweem them, it is possible to create two different speed minis even with a constant step delay. For example, one path can move 1 tile each step while another path can more only 1/2 a tile each step.
