How do you have other guys moving and let you still control your guy?

You have to be more specific with what you want to do exactly.

With script, you can move characters using the MoveCharacter function, it's non-blocking.
If you're using the interaction editor, select "Character - Move Character" and be sure to set "Wait for move to finish" to False.

If you want to move a character along a path, use the MoveCharacterPath function.

If you want characters continually walking in the background, use the following code for reference:

Code: ags

function room_a() {
  // script for room: Repeatedly execute

  //...

  if (character[SOMEGUY].walking == 0) { // character has stopped walking (reached point C)
    MoveCharacterDirect(SOMEGUY, 0, 100); // walk to point A
    MoveCharacterPath(SOMEGUY, 160, 150); // then to point B afterwards
    MoveCharacterPath(SOMEGUY, 320, 100); // then to point C
  }

  /...
}

It's all very well explained in the manual. Read it carefully, it's excellent.
