# walk_towards proc

Source: https://ref.dm-lang.org/proc/walk_towards

### Format
> `walk_towards(Ref,Trg,Lag=0,Speed=0)`

### Args
- `Ref`: A mob or obj.
- `Trg`: An object on the map.
- `Lag`: Delay in world ticks between movement.
- `Speed`: Speed to move, in pixels. 0 uses Ref.step_size.


Move Ref in the direction of Trg continuously. Each step will be preceded by Lag time of inactivity.

A call to a walking function aborts any previous walking function called on Ref. To halt walking, call walk(Ref,0).

This function returns immediately, but continues to process in the background.
