Hi there  
I suppose i should introduce myself 🙂 My name is Chris and i’m currently making a project to do with the Korean conflict. I am a total noob at this and am bumbling along at a slow pace aha.  
At the moment i have a movie clip which is a rocket which moves around on screen but i would like it to rotate and i can’t figure out how to.Here is the code i have.

```auto
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
if(Key.isDown(KEY.UP)){
_y -= 10;
}
if(Key.isDown(KEY.DOWN)){
_y += 10;
}
if(Key.isDown(KEY.RIGHT)){
_x += 10;
}
if(Key.isDown(KEY.LEFT)){
_x -= 10;
}
}

```

Also, when the rocket goes over a button i want it to interact with it to make text appear on screen and when the rocket moves from the button for the text to disappear  
Currently i have this code which only makes the text appear when the mouse clicks it and doesn’t make it disappear when i want the rocket to do this.

```auto
on (release) {
gotoAndStop();
firstpoint1945.text="1945 - After World War II, Japanese occupation of Korea ends with Soviet troops occupying the north, and US troops the south. ";

}

```

Thanks for your time:)

Chris
