ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

A lot of times, I use autoexplore not because it's much faster than manually moving, but because I immediately know when I encounter an enemy. When I have to manually explore, such as when leading an escort or underwater, I often don't notice when an enemy is within view but off the screen to the top or bottom. Occasionally, this causes a serious problem. It would be nice if I could use a key to toggle a "Safe Move" mode where, if an enemy is visible, the movement controls will do nothing and display a message similar to when trying to autoexplore with an enemy in view.

I support this idea.

This can be *very* painful to have a message anytime you want to move and there are ennemies around you.
Should be limited to situations where the foes are offscreen.

I think the point is that you should be able to toggle it. I certainly wouldn't support having it active ALL the time

Right, toggling it would just be hitting a key, like how caps lock toggles Scroll Mode.
