I would like to make a logical chess-type game
I need Grid movment for this
Their are multiple ways to achieve this but the main one I recommend doing is using a actor for each part of the chess tile/grid. Tell each of the actors of the grid/tile what part of the board they are. so all the first column actors are “1” and all the first row actors are “A”.
Then when the player clicks on one of the actors of the grid/tile (you can do this multiple ways but doing a line trace is the way I would recommend). It checks with the game mode to see if the move they want to do is valid. like a pawn on B2 going to C3 is not possible so the game mode would not allow it, but if the move was like bishop C2 going to E4 then it would be valid and the game mode would allow this to happen
for moving the piece, just doing a simple teleport of the chess piece to that grid/tile will work for moving it.
