Re: [pygame] a bit #ot: design for a game board supporting user facing different directions?

This looks very promising! A question though: you specify the speed as
1 meter per second, but the player is not always moving, and his
movement is not specified by a timer. He cannot move any faster than a
limit, but he can move as slowly as he wants. Does this throw anything
off, or can I just use the player's stepLength float as speed and
disregard the "per second" component?
