Hey,
I already coded the part with
a -> actor.x -= 5;
d -> actor.x += 5;
w -> actor.y -= 5;
s -> actor.y += 5;

know if I press d and then w my actor moves x + 5 and y - 5, but I want my actor only move in one direction.
example:
d and then w : x + 5
s and then d : y + 5

how can I do that?

Quickest way is to set a lock variable. So create a variable, in my case moving. There are 5 possible values for moving. 0 is no key pressed, 1 is right, 2 is up, 3 is left, 4 is down. On your keydown events, it should look like this.
actor -> Keydown (right) -> Script Editor

Code: Select all

if(moving==0) // no key pressed
{
    x+=5; // switch these to the appropriate x or y
    moving=1; // set this to the appropriate value
}

actor -> Keyup (right) -> Script Editor

Code: Select all

if(moving==1)
{
    moving=0;
}

If you want you can #define or enum the values for left, up, right, and down, so that typing the word left, will be the same as typing 3.

click game game mode and move with w, a, s ,d

coded everything as you told me

Sorry, forgot the || case. As you noted, it only operates once, and it is because the keydown sets move not to equal zero. With xvelocity and yvelocity you don't need to do that, and originally I was going to suggest using xvelocity and yvelocity (no need for repeat events).

Code: Select all

if(moving==0 || moving==1)
{
    x+=5;
    moving=1;
}

thanks, but I tried it out and now I want it like that
if you press d and then w actor should move y-5 how can I do that?
