It looks like you're thinking along the right lines, but just have a few details off. Here are a couple hints to get you going:

To move the object in its current direction:

M.Move(get_step(M, M.dir))

To rotate the object 45 degrees clockwise:

M.dir = turn(M.dir, -45)

Good luck!

Or simply
Step(M,M.dir)
