Accurate way to detect if user is always moving?

I know about move direction, but the thing is if the player just moves in a straight line, move direction wont update, i need to know when the user is moving ALWAYS.

#2

why not just check if MoveDirection.Magnitude ~= 0 in a loop

I hope this helps.

local players = game:GetService("Players")

local LocalPlayer = players.LocalPlayer

if not LocalPlayer then 
	players:GetPropertyChangedSignal("LocalPlayer"):Wait()
	LocalPlayer = players.LocalPlayer
end

local character = LocalPlayer.Character or LocalPlayer.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local Humanoid:Humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local Moving = false

Humanoid:GetPropertyChangedSignal("MoveDirection"):Connect(function()
	
	
	if Humanoid.MoveDirection.Magnitude == 0 then
		Moving = false
	elseif Humanoid.MoveDirection.Magnitude > 0 then
		Moving = true
	end
	
	print(Moving)
		
end)

Shoot, i forgot about something… The movedirection events fires each time it changes… it wont solve the problem, if the user runs in a straight line movedirection wont fire and it wont update

so you want the player to keep moving in different directions at all times or how
