Walk/Dash toggle

[Dannygs90]

Hey, so, I want to add the option to change via switch between the basic "hold shift to run" to "press shift to change to run mode or walk mode"..... I'm not sure if I explained it well. Is there any way to do that? Like, if you activate a switch, it's the "press to change" option, and if you deactivate it, it's the "hold to run" option.

Otherwise, at least I'd want to toggle the auto-dash via switch, so you don't have to always press shift to run.

My KShlenam ACE Options Menu script lets you turn the Dash feature on and off. Perhaps that could help you somehow.

But I don't want to disable the dash option, I want to make it so you don't have to be holding Shift to run

I had most of this code in a script from Fomar0153. Just added the switch option.

    return false if @move_route_forcing
    return false if $game_map.disable_dash?

  end
end

That should suffice here.

It worked, thanks a lot!
