**lucas92** · June 6th, 2004, 06:16 PM

which one

**lucas92** · June 6th, 2004, 09:20 PM

I am trying to get it but i am fairly new to AS.

onClipEvent (keyUp) {
_root.this.gotoAndStop(1);
}

What is wrong with this code

Well firtly you don't need the root, that makes it look for an MC named this
onClipEvent (keyUp) {
this.gotoAndStop(1);
}

how do you make it

**lucas92** · July 13th, 2004, 06:25 PM

what do you want

**cooleyo** · July 14th, 2004, 09:40 AM

Actually it's on keyup. If you did it on key down it'd play the animation while the character is moving. But, yeah it points in the right direction. On key up (left/right/up/down) you gotoAndStop(theFrameYouNeed).

hey lucas92 change you're footer dude, maximum size allowed is 300x60 !!!

Imagine - your footer on a 800x600 screen takes more than half of the screen !

Hi

hey i tryed that anti walking through walls thing on my guy, but it didn't work. Do u know what i may have done wrong???
and i jave my own map, do i have to do extra script for each building.

Oh god, this is full of people who really do not know what they are doing.

Anyway... just use an "else" after whatever function you use for movement... eg,
if(Key.isDown(*whatever key*<LEFT>)){
//movement stuffs
} else {
char.gotoAndStop(1);
}

Simple stuff.
