"Another "tutorial" on how to copy and paste?"
date: December 4, 2005
So you just learnt how to do it, in other words, you're level of experiance with AS is just more than the people you're trying to teach. That makes you a bad teacher.
I've seen this a million times, badly made, rushed tutorials by mediocre programmers who can't think what to make. Copying and pasting code samples with no explanation does not help people at all, they won't be able to adapt it in any way, or even understand why what they see is happening. It's like passing off instructions for flat pack shelves as a tutorial on carpentry.
On top of that, your code is messy, simplistic and impractical. Do you really believe someone could make an RPG when if they had to add a crapload of code for every /wall/? Didn't think so.
As for the presentation, the whole keyboard thing was a bad idea. You end up scrolling through 4 pages at a time and having to go back. Use buttons like everyone else or, failing that, a master of AS like you should be able to add a delay in detecting the keypresses no?
In conclusion, try and think of a good use for this code you've picked up rather than passing it on to equally inept people. Failing that, write tutorials in HTML, flash is a terrible medium for stuff like this. And make them actually helpful.

Hello? "with no explanation" THERE IS AN EXPLANATION! Either next to the code or in the code itself u idiot!only people as stupid as you cant notice it
