Under rating threshold (show) for all those experiencing trouble with CS 5: Instead of creating a new actionscript file, press the little arrow next to where the ships instrance name is (top right corner under properties) and input this code: onClipEvent(load) { var velocity; velocity = 10; } onClipEvent(enterFrame) { _x= _x + velocity; } }

Under rating threshold (show) @TheSupaHobo You didn't do quadratic graphs when you were younger? The X axis is left to right (horizontal), to the right is 1,2,3,4,5 etc. left is -1,-2,-3,-4,-5 etc.. The same occurs for the Y axis, but it's vertical to move up it's 1,2,3,4,5 and to go down it's -1,-2,-3,-4,-5 etc.

Under rating threshold (show) Why does "_y = _y + velocity" cause the ship to go down while "_x = _x + velocity" goes right? I'm imagining the x and y coordinates and I can see why adding more to the x value would move the ship to the right but I don't understand why adding more to the y value causes the ship to fall downward.

Under rating threshold (show) Oh man, i made this in AS3 and its hella lot different and a bit harder. and now the ship cant go diagonal-ways, because AS3 uses Event Callbacks. It was way simpler and better with checks man, they could put their new stuff in(Event Callbacks for keyboard pressing and releasing) but why delete Key.isdown? That sucked.

Under rating threshold (show) Taxi: You have to use an image-editing tool to "delete" pixels around your pixel art, which is not MS Paint. I recommend Paint.NET because of its easy-to-use interface and extended features. If you do decide to use it, use the magic wand, click on your ship and press delete. Should fix it. Nexus: The tutorial is outdated, therefore you must use the outdated software that was available at the time. You need CS3, not CS5(at least I think).

Under rating threshold (show) I am using CS4 and after numerous times following this tut I cant get the ship to move using my arrow keys... I have done what everyone has said in saving and making sure the class and file names are all the same... Has anyone tried this in CS4 or do I have to put Flash down as an new found enemy of mine?
