With that said and done, test your movie. Just see if it works like the example so far.
If you would also like a scrolling background then make one and put it on a separate layer underneath the character MC on the main stage. Right-click on it, go to Convert to Symbol, and make it a movie clip.
Now put the following actions in the movie clip and it should work for you. E-Mail me if it doesn't.
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (Key.isDown(Key.UP)) {
setProperty (this, _y, this._y+3);
} else if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
setProperty (this, _x, this._x-4);
} else if (Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)) {
setProperty (this, _y, this._y-3);
} else if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
setProperty (this, _x, this._X+4);
}
}
Hope that works for ya! If you use this tutorial for any work then I would appreciate it! Thanks for reading!
