Why you dont use KeyDownEvent???I'm not tried it yet

[DarkParadox]

no, but should i?

[DarkParadox]

everything is working exept for the fact that he's not moving left or right

[Bee-Ant]

just try it with Keydown event...there're many ways to do something, just try it one by one and choose the best one
Ummm...have you added

Code: Select all

x=x-3;

in keydown LEFT, and

Code: Select all

x=x+3;

in keydown RIGHT

[DarkParadox]

i put x = x +2;
but does it make that much of a diffrence
'

[Bee-Ant]

I think not...
Btw, make sure if that keydown event to move, which have x=x-2; inside is repeated

[DarkParadox]

i did i just not working either

[DarkParadox]

Wait i found my error and fixed it
thank for trying to help, +1 point
for your troubles

[Bee-Ant]

I dont think if made troubles...
KeyDown>Left>ScriptEditor>

Code: Select all

x=x-3;

KeyDown>Right>ScriptEditor>

Code: Select all

x=x+3;

It should work fine
Btw, I'm not attracted with score...
THANKS anyway

Make sure that "anifinishright" or "anifinishleft" are equal to one when pressing the keys, try to change it so it checks if the value is 0 instead, you could do trouble shooting from there

[Bee-Ant]

nice analysis

[Game A Gogo]

I use that technique a lot

[Bee-Ant]

Yeah I see...because you're senior here
