This is just a guess because I can’t see your file from here, but, if the man is on frame one not moving (just standing), maybe

	if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
		this._x += 5;
		gotoAndPlay("_root.man", 2);
	} else {
gotoAndStop("_root.man",1);
}

You made the legs separate movieClips that move with tweens on layers ‘right leg’ and ‘left leg’. These movieClips are nested in the movieClip of the gunner. You need to give everything instance names before you can tell them what to do. For instance, start with your first frame (at first). Put names on the right leg and left leg like ‘rleg’ and ‘lleg’. Then put a name on your guy like ‘dude’. Now, if you want the legs to stop moving use actions like:


_root.dude.rleg.gotoAndStop(1);
_root.dude.lleg.gotoAndStop(1);
//since you don't have a stop() action on the legs at all
//you can then use this to start them going again:
_root.dude.rleg.play();
_root.dude.lleg.play();

PS - I won’t steal your game, don’t worry. :wink:
