hey,

Well… I’m currently making this “street fighter” style game… where you have characters attack and block etc… However… the problem i’ve run into is the “multiple” key detection actionscript…

So far… I can only get those one key presses to work… but i want to do combos… like if i were to press UP+DOWN+Z or something in sequence in a limited amount of time… say… 1 second… and then it’ll execute an animation…

Anyone know how i should do this?

thanks.
