AS: moving a character

[lan00]

ok i have this actionscript for my moving guy:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
this.gotoAndStop(2);
_x -= -10;
} else if (!Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
this.gotoAndStop(1);
}
}

but you see if i do that and add this:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
this.gotoAndStop(3);
_x -= -10;
} else if (!Key.isDown(Key.LEFTT)) {
this.gotoAndStop(1);
}
}

to the moveclip guy aswell the whole thing stuffs up eg

i want a moving link when you push left it shows a moving animation of link
then when you release the left button it will show the stoped animation of link that is what i want but i cant seem to get it can som1 help me please!

YOU DON'T PUT AS: IN FRONT OF YOUR THREAD UNLESS IT IS A TUTORIAL ABOUT THE SUBJECT OF THAT THREAD

just make the frames inside the player movieclips themselves and animate those movieclips

just make the frames inside the player movieclips themselves and animate those movieclips

yeah i have done that but i want the action script saying when left is pushed play frame 2 (walking link left)
then when left is release play frame 1 (standing link)

[Inglor]

then the error is the fact you have two T 's in the else if
why not just do:

if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
this.gotoAndStop(3);
_x -= -10;
} else {
this.gotoAndStop(1);
}
}

[Denvish]

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
this.gotoAndStop(2);
_x -= -10;
}else if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
this.gotoAndStop(3);
_x -= -10;
}else{
this.gotoAndStop(1);
}
}

thankyou alot dude

[DarthRaver]

if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
this.gotoAndStop(2);
_x -= -10;
}else if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
this.gotoAndStop(3);
_x -= -10;

You forgot to change (key.LEFT)) from "_x-= -10;" it should be "_x-= 10;" no negative infront of the ten
