Good day!

I'm currently new to Godot and programming but I've been making a lot of progress however I just can't seem to find my mistakes or solutions to these problems with my game. I want to make a Celeste type of game and hopefully when i get everything on lock down teach others how to make it. I've got four things I'm not able to solve after I've tried everything. If there is also anything else that doesn't look right or can be done on a better way please let me know so I can improve!

The first problem is the fact that my dash is not 45 degrees when i press UP RIGHT DASH or even any other Ordinal directions. I would thought since I put the same amount of motion in the x and y direction it would move 45 degrees from the floor. motion = (-DASH_SPEED, -DASH_SPEED)

The second problem is the fact that when I push top and left at the same time and then press jump the player does not jump at all. He jumps however when I press any other two directions in the same time.

The Third problem is after the player wallgrabs the jump_count is resetted to 0 and even with this the player is still not able to double jump after wallgrab.

The last problem is not really a problem I just want to know more why it is not working if I make the #movement and direction part under the dashing function its own function the dash of the player completely changes to a short dash rather than a long one or if i change the elif to if it also change to a short dash.

Controls in the game is normal arrow keys to move Z = dash X = Wallclimb Spacebar = Jump

Thanks
