Easy Arrowed Control!

Hey,

This is going to teach you how to move a movieclip using the arrow keys.

First to start off make the object you want to move, I guess thats what you would call it. Then highligth the object and press F8 and name it what ever you want, I named mine "chara_cnt" with out the quotes. Once you do that highlight the object again and press F9 to bring up Action Script 2.0, and copy and paste this code.

onClipEvent(enterFrame){
if(Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)){
this._x += 5;
}
if(Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)){
this._x -= 5;
}
if(Key.isDown(Key.UP)){
this._y -= 5;
}
if(Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)){
this._y += 5;
}
}


Then test out the movie by pressing Ctrl and Enter at the same time. It should work. If you have a question just post it here.

Thanks,
