Motion Paths in Storyline

Hello. I am needing some assistance with motion paths. I am currently creating an interactive game board with pieces and a die. My issue is trying to figure out how to move a piece around the board (rectangular shape) based on the die roll. I have already set up my die triggers. I am even open to manually moving the piece if that is simpler. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Thank you so much!!

    I was working on this today. I have something, but it's a little messy. I'll try and refine my version tomorrow.

      I was able to get halfway around the board, but my corner triggers were off. I ended up creating a drag and drop effect for my game pieces. ChatGPT is a great source to use for understanding motion paths.

        I did a basic test board and got it to work. Though the path is only right, then up. But all the code is there and can be repeated for any direction. My triggers require 3 variables, one for the die roll, one stating path direction and the other counting how many motion path moves remaining. If you stay stuck let me know.
