heya, im creating a new project

a game thats something like this:  
[http://www.armorgames.com/games/armorheroes\_popup.html](http://www.armorgames.com/games/armorheroes_popup.html)

but i need a nice movement for jumping and stuff

the left and right is easy

i made a little script but can someone make it with jumping?

```auto
 
onClipEvent(load){
walkspeed = 0;
}
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
_x -= _root.walkspeed
_root.hero.gotoAndPlay("walkleft");
}
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
 _x += _root.walkspeed
_root.hero.gotoAndPlay("walkright");
 }
}

```

thats it 🙂

thnx ^^

sorry jop…:cantlook:  
here is my version, it’s just very simple and will need tweaking… but useable:  
the game runs off this code

```auto
var moveHorizontalSpeed:Number = 1;
var moveVerticalSpeed:Number = 1;
var space:Number = 5;
var launchInit:Number = -10;
var mapScrollDist:Number = 100;
k.onEnterFrame = function() {
    Key.isDown(Key.SPACE) && !jumping ? (yLaunch=this._y, jumping=jumpSpeed=launchInit) : this._y>=yLaunch && jumpSpeed>0 ? (this._y=yLaunch, jumpSpeed=launchInit, jumping=false) : jumping ? (this._y += jumpSpeed++, this.gotoAndStop("jump")) : null;
    this._y -= yspeed=moveVerticalSpeed*(Key.isDown(Key.UP)-Key.isDown(Key.DOWN));
    Key.isDown(Key.LEFT) && this._x<0+mapScrollDist && g.getBounds(_root).xMin<0+moveHorizontalSpeed ? g._x += moveHorizontalSpeed : Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT) && this._x>Stage.width-mapScrollDist && g.getBounds(_root).xMax>Stage.width-moveHorizontalSpeed ? g._x -= moveHorizontalSpeed : this._x -= speed=moveHorizontalSpeed*(Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)-Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT));
    speed != 0 ? ((this._xscale=speed<0 ? 100 : -100), (!jumping ? this.gotoAndStop("walk") : null)) : yspeed ? (!jumping ? this.gotoAndStop("walk") : null) : (!jumping ? this.gotoAndStop("idle") : null);
    while (this._y<g._y && !g.h.hitTest(this._x, this._y, true) && !jumping) {
        this._y++;
    }
    while (this._y>g._y && !g.h.hitTest(this._x, this._y, true) && !jumping) {
        this._y--;
    }
    while (!g.h.hitTest(this._x-space, this._y, true) && !jumping) {
        this._x++;
    }
    while (!g.h.hitTest(this._x+space, this._y, true) && !jumping) {
        this._x--;
    }
};
