Correct. It counts tiles moved, not stamina used.
So basically what you saying is along my guess about how the current coding of 'walking x number of tiles type DQ' works?
Teleport does not count as a walked space. It's basically a "portal" across the map..... Many have also said that lightfoot will negate a tile if it kicks in. The idea is to really and truly walk xxx spaces. However, a diagonal move is supposed to count as the two tiles. I know if I'm using the "new" map, I'm just going to tap wherever point "b" is (I play on a mobile device) and the game will automatically make the diagonal move. I don't have keyboard shortcuts, and I'm certainly not going to tap out each tile one by one.... This issue needs to be addressed so that a diagonal move counts as 2 squares, as it costs 2 squares....
Hoof?
I was just point out the possible reason why currently moving diagonally count as only 1 movement for DQ --the current coding-. Not saying diagonal movement shouldn't count as 2 tiles done for DQ. So no need to correct me on this part.
Edit: I just get the feeling being low Lvl, many players feel I have less understanding of the game. Thanks for at least reading my post above. Many probably skip reading it, seeing its feedback from low level.
Running the game on mobile device without keyboard myself I can understand your pain. Have to use the touch screen for both attacking creatures and moving, I often mis-tabbed when trying to attack creatures and instead move all the away across the map

... not short cut keys. I was no able to even minimum quality the GQ since my PC broken and minimum requirements increased to 5k.
