Action Script

Yes, believe it or not, we are already to the action script part. Now we are going to add this action script to the Movie clip "ball". Here it is:
onClipEvent (keyDown) {
 if (Key.isDown( key.LEFT)) {
 _x-=10;
 }
}
onClipEvent (keyDown) {
 if (Key.isDown( key.RIGHT)) {
 _x+=10;
 }
}
onClipEvent (keyDown) {
 if (Key.isDown( key.UP )) {
 _y-=10;
 }
}
onClipEvent (keyDown) {
 if (Key.isDown( key.DOWN )) {
 _y+=10;
 }
}
Now, where it says "_y+=10", or "_x-=10" or something like that, the number ten is how many pixels the object will move. You can enlarge the number to make it move more, or shrink the number to move less. Now the rest of the code is pretty self explanitory.

FINALLY, WE'RE FINISHED!!!!

Now that wasnt as hard as it sounds was it? If you have any problems, dont e-mail me. Download my File.
