Moving a Character With The Arrow Keys

The following code when attached to a character will allow the character to be moved using the arrow keys:


onClipEvent (enterFrame) {

if (Key.isDown(37)) {

_x=_x-10;
}

if (Key.isDown(38)) {

_y=_y-10;

}

if (Key.isDown(39)) {

_x=_x+10;

}

if (Key.isDown(40)) {

_y=_y+10;

}

** Extra Code to stop character car going through walls:

if (hitTest(_level0.wall)==true) {

_x=_x-10;

}

if (hitTest(_level0.lft_wall)==true) {

_x=_x+10;

}

if (hitTest(_level0.lft_wall2)==true) {

_x=_x+10;

}
