Having some trouble doing flat-faced glides with monsters near them because I can't do them fast enough. How would I go about building them?

Check the correct coordinate, which you need for x or y to be. For example, y-coordinate is 128.000000 when the doomguy is gliding, so try to run to the wall so that you have something like 128.010000 when you hit the wall, and the next tick try to get it something like 128.001000 using MF1-50 (or MB1-50) adding little SR1-50 or trying little different angles. When you are close to the 128.000000, brute force one tic. That's the way I do them, but sometimes the bruteforce just doesn't find anything because there is no such tic that allows you to glide with MF50-1 SR50-1. So, luck is needed if you want to do them (really) fast.

You need y-coordinate because you can only get certain values for y-coordinate, when the glide is successful.

Edit: Removed word "too" because you don't need x-coordinate for the bruteforce.
