Hey all,
http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/xymove.htm
Kirupa’s tutorial here was something I ran across while trying to learn how to move an MC using the keyboard. However, I’m looking to do a motion that is a bit more complicated than that - and I’m somewhat stumped. (Yup, Im new to actionscripting)
I’d like to be able to move the MC 100 pixels (and that part I’ve figured out), but I need the motion to be smooth - with inertia. I searched and searched, and this is a link I found that looked useful in demonstrating the effect:

Click the 4th example - ‘Inertia, Single plane of movement’
Now, instead of having the _xmouse determine the position, I want to hit the ‘forward/backward’ keys on the keyboard, and make it hop smoothly forward or backward a 100 pixels. Im just confused where to add what, and I am continuing to work on it.
This is being programmed in Flash MX 2004.
If anyone could offer any help, Id really appreciate it.
Thanks,
Haley
