ActionScript 2.0 :: Move An Object Around With The Arrow Keys
Jun 24, 2010
so first off, this is AS 2.0. Second, i have a little character from a tutorial on how to move an object around with the arrow keys. The character faces on way on "up" another on "down" and so forth. There are 4 frames for it facing up, down, left, and right so that on the key presses it faces the proper direction and moves accordingly. I also want this little guy to move behind objects. When this happens, i want the object that the little guy is behind to be partially transparent so that you can still see him and he doesnt just vanish.

In Fash CS3, suddenly, in certain files, I can't move an object left using arrow keys - but I can move the same object right, or if I hold down Shift + left arrow, it works correctly Also - I can move the object down with arrow keys, but not up Workaround - move an object on a different layer, then return to the problem object and it moves correctly. But this doesn't last long, the problem resurfaces.(I've tried rebooting; tried copying all the layers into a new file.

I have a file set up with a movie clip moving from side to side by itself and when it reaches the end of the stage it goes back in the opposite direction.[code]I know want to control the movie clips movement with arrow keys, just left and right so that it would stop when it reaches the edge and will only let me move it the opposite direction.I guess I'm just trying to set up a sort of template.

I'm trying to move a movie clip using the arrow keys. It's a very simple test animation. Basically I have a stick character with simple walking animation. It has 3 movement. 1 is a forward walk, 2 is a duck and 3 is a backwards walk. Now I can move the character but I cant keep the animation going. Is there something I'm missing??

I am trying to setup a movie where the user can move objects with the arrow keys. I have several objects that can be moved. My problem is that they all move at the same time. How can I fix it so you can click on an object and only that one object moves?

To move the MC, using arrow keys I used the following and it worked:
var timer:Timer;
var direct:String;
initStage();
[Code].....
I tried to convert this to use my onstage buttons: up_btn, down_btn, left_btn, right_btn to move MC box but couldn't figure it out.

i'm attempting to make a platform game, i know how to move left and right with the arrow keys, but that's quite boring. i want to move my character based only on the x movement of my mouse. the more i move my mouse in a certain direction, the faster the character moves in that direction. i've been trying to modify the x-speed on my character based on a x value of the mouse, but nothing is working.
preferably, i want a code that keeps my cursor at the center of the screen, while still being able to detect x movements of the mouse. i'd copy paste code from my program, but i'm fairly confident that doing so will serve no purpose. i need a new direction. i have no idea how to do this.

I have a MC that can be moved around with the arrow keys. When a person presses the left key I want the object to face left and perform an animation for as long as the left key is pressed. When the left key is released I want the animation to go back to it's starting frame but the MC should still be facing left. I want the same thing for the other arrow keys, but the animations will be different for each direction (for example: walk right, walk left, walk away from you, walk towards you).

How do I get the AWSD keys to work as smoothly as the arrow keys. I can put the arrow keys inside an enterFrame
[AS]onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
//move the tank
if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
[Code]....
If I put the AWD keys inside an enterFrame they run until I push another button

I'm using the actionscript below to Move Object Using The Arrow Keys and it works fine but I want to modify it so that when I press the up key it goes to and play a movie clip. Basically it's a ball movie clip that responds to the arrow key but on the up key it plays a bouncing movieclip and everything remains aligned.
Here is the script-
var speed =5;
this.onEnterFrame =function(){
if(Key.isDown(Key.UP)) {
circle._y -= speed;
} if(Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)) {
circle._y += speed;
} if(Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
circle._x -= speed;
} if(Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
circle._x += speed;
}};

I want to use keypress (a and d keys) to move an object (MC) across the stage. Here's what I have so far:
[Code]...
The clip has an instance name of red_mc. It doesn't work though? Also, if I want to have a yellow instance to work off "j" and "k" keys, do I just copy and paste the code above?

The objective is to get the fox - by using the arrow keys - to move around on the stage and when he touches a duck the duck should disappear of the stage. The duck has a motion tween on it, to make it fly.Also if the fox touches one of the traps he should make a sound - using the redfox.wav sound in the library and disappear off the stage.I have this code on the actionscript timeline //Program to generate a set number of traps
//Declaring Variables var numOfTraps:Number; var movieWidth:Number; var movieHeight:Number; var counter:Number; //setting variables values for traps numOfTraps = 6 movieWidth = Stage.width; movieHeight = Stage.height; //Program to generate a set number of traps //Declaring Variables for (counter = 7; counter <= 13; counter++){ //Place 6 traps on the stage [code]....

For some reason, the down and right keys aren't working. They work fine in other programs but in this program they fail.
paddle_ybase = paddle._yscale;paddleSpeed = 0;
onEnterFrame = function(){
if(Key.isDown(Key.UP)){paddleA._y -= 1;}if(Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)){paddeA._y += 1;}
if(Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)){paddleA._x -= 1;}if(Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)){paddeA._x += 1;}
steam(7);paddle._rotation = paddleSpeed;
} function steam(num){for(i=0;i<num;i++) {

how do you move an object around with the arrow keys.
But there's a catch.
I need my object to flip horizontal when pressing right when it is facing left ( and vice versa). And I need it to flip vertical when it is facing facing upwards and the down arrow is pressed (and vice versa).

I am trying to create a four button system that is controlled using either your mouse or arrow keys.I need to create a Key Listener to allow the highlighting and selecting of each button . The arrow keys allow you to select button when you reach the last button it returns to the first button, and the enter key allows you to select the button.
