Having problems with slopes

programming flash
1

Hey,

I’ve followed a tutorial for adding slopes to a platformer and it works quite well except for 1 thing.
The hero goes up on the slope alright but when he goes down on the slope he kind of bounces down, it stops the hero from going to his walking frame and he can’t jump while moving down that slope.

Here is the code. Please help me make it so that the hero moves as smoothly down the slope as he does up it.

onClipEvent (load) {
	grav = 0;
	// sets falling speed
	speed = 5;
	// sets movement speed
	jumpHeight = 10;
	// sets height that you can jump
	scale = _xscale;
	// sets size
	slowfall = .8;
	// sets glide
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
	// happens every frame
	grav++;
	// makes you fall faster
	_y += grav;
	// makes your _y go up by the varaible grav
	while (_root.ground.hitTest(_x, _y, true)) {
		// when this is touching the ground
		_y--;
		// makes the y keep on going up, this enables slopes
		grav = 0;
		// make it so you dont fall
	}
	if (Key.isDown(68)) {
		// when the d key is down
		_x += speed;
		// makes the x go up by the speed
		_xscale = scale;
		// makes it face right
		if (_root.ground.hitTest(_x, _y+3, true)) {
			// if it is touching the ground
			this.gotoAndStop(10);
			// goes to frame 1
		} else {
			// otherwise
			this.gotoAndStop(1);
			// stops at frame 2
		}
	} else if (Key.isDown(65)) {
		// if that isnt happening and the a key is pressed
		_x -= speed;
		// makes the x go gown by the speed
		_xscale = -scale;
		// makes it face left
		if (_root.ground.hitTest(_x, _y+3, true)) {
			this.gotoAndStop(10);
		} else {
			this.gotoAndStop(1);
		}
		// see other code for movign right
	} else {
		if (_root.ground.hitTest(_x, _y+3, true) && !Key.isDown(79)) {
			// if this is touching the ground and o isnt pressed
			this.gotoAndStop(3);
			// stops at frame 3
		}
	}
	if (Key.isDown(83)) {
		// if the s key is down
		grav *= slowfall;
		// slows down the gravity by multiplying it by the slowfall varialbe
	}
	if (Key.isDown(79) && !Key.isDown(87) && !Key.isDown(65) && !Key.isDown(68)) {
		// if 0 is down, and a s d w arent
		this.gotoAndStop(4);
		// goes to frame 4
	}
	if (Key.isDown(87) && _root.ground.hitTest(_x, _y+3, true)) {
		// if w is pressed and it is touching the ground
		grav = -jumpHeight;
		// makes gravity negative jumpheight, causes jump
		_y -= 4;
		// makes the y go up by 3
		this.gotoAndStop(2);
		// stops on frame 2
	}
	if (_root.ground.hitTest(_x+(_width/2), _y-(_height/2), true) || _root.ground.hitTest(_x+(_width/2), _y-((_height/6)*4), true)) {
		_x -= speed;
	}
	if (_root.ground.hitTest(_x-(_width/2), _y-(_height/2), true) || _root.ground.hitTest(_x-(_width/2), _y-((_height/6)*4), true)) {
		_x += speed;
	}
	if (_root.ground.hitTest(_x, _y-_height, true)) {
		grav = 2;
	}
	// these all check for 2 points along the sides and top, to see if it is hitting a wall
