I am currently making a movement system in my scratch game and I want to make it so the movement is the same speed nomatter the direction. I am currently detecting when a key is pressed changing a varible then moving x on the x var and y on the y var. Then I slowly make the varible smaller to add a slow drift effect. With this current system I don’t know how to make it so it moves the same distance diagonally as it will say horizontally.

I said this above but I guess I can mention I am new to stack overflow and currently only have made games with scratch but I am learning python.
