oh sorry i forgot that, lol. Well, I’m making a game. and i have two movie clips right now till i get the coding for the hitTest. One mc is (guy) the other is (desk) guy moves on key press and what not. Well I want it to where when the guy touches the desk, he stops, basic, but then I want him to be able to move the other three ways also, how can I achieve this?

I just did this tutorial for the platform game I want to learn how to make them.

But it has all kinds of movements in it to teach how to do most of it.

Hope this helps and ii want to here thanks if it does.

I’m sorry I have been trying to figure it out, thank you for the file, but I don’t understand it one bit, lol, um, is there anything simpler? I’ll tell you what I have so far.

on the movie clip guy i have

onClipEvent(EnterFrame)  
If(Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)  
\_this.\_x += 6

//and so on and so forth with the rest of the 3 arrow keys.

I got the guy to move, but it’s just the hitTest I need to know. Digital, you codes to complex for me to understand, I’m new to this type of programming in flash, but thank you for your help.
