to do diagonal movement you need a boolean flag for each arrow key(or WASD or whatever). in the KEY_DOWN event listener you set the flags to true if the buttons were pressed and in the KEY_UP event listener you set them to false again. then when you update movement you check to see which flags are true and apply the proper force. even if you press two at the same time it should recognize both of them

so like on the checkkeydown function I would have booleans like:
wkeypressed
akeypressed
skeypressed
dkeypressed

if I did that would I also have to have a key up function to make the booleans false?

one last question what about diagnol movement. Like pressing the upkey and the right key at the same time?

Topic: Game Programming / Flash Physics AS3

yea thats what I want for vAccel would it be this:

var vAccel:Number = 0; //v stands for verticle
//class code
//method header for key listener
if(e.keyCode== Keyboard.UP)
{
   vAccel+=.5;
}
if(e.keyCode== Keyboard.DOWN)
{
   vAccel-=.5;
}

//method header for enter frame
{
    //inside enter frame method
    character.x +=vAccel;
    vAccell*=.95; //I added friction in there for you so. The higher the number
                 //the longer it takes to slow down by itself
}

Topic: Game Programming / Macromedia Flash 8 Professional help

yea it is but AS3 was introduced in CS3 but you can still use AS2

Topic: Game Programming / Macromedia Flash 8 Professional help

You cannot make a game with AS3 in Macromedia Flash 8 professional. You need Flash CS3, Flash CS4 or the upcoming Flash CS5.

Topic: Game Programming / Flash Physics AS3

How would I have acceleration/deaccerlation/velocity and all that kind of stuff instead of just something like:

if (e.keyCode == Keyboard.RIGHT){
character.x +=5;
}

Topic: Game Programming / (SOLVED) Muting by pressing M key (AS3)

Oh thanks so much it worked!!

Topic: Game Programming / (SOLVED) Muting by pressing M key (AS3)

I was trying to mute sounds by pressing the m key in my game. For the m key to register I have to click the game. Then it works fine but on the next frame I have to click the screen and press m. How could I do this without having to click the screen every frame. Here is my code

var musicplaying;
var music:Sound = new mp3music();
var myChannel:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();

stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, myKeyDown);

function myKeyDown(e:KeyboardEvent):void{
	
if (e.keyCode == 77){
	
	if(musicplaying == false){
		myChannel = music.play(0,1000,null);
		trace("music playing is true")
		musicplaying = true;
		return;
	}
	if(musicplaying == true){
		myChannel.stop();
		trace("music playing is false")
		musicplaying = false;
		return;
	}
	

Why do I have to click the screen every frame so it can recognize the m key and how can I fix it
