I'm making a game on flash (you would be wondering why I have flash pro 8) and I need some help making the code to make it do the following: slide when moving, gravity, cpu moving and when to do the attacks.
I'm only a beginner at flash, although I got it 4 weeks ago.

Please give the code for it and I can show a picture I made in flash for every code posted.

moving:

Code:

onClipEvent (load) {
     xSpeed = 0;
     ySpeed = 0;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
     xSpeed *= 0.8; //change 0.8 to your prefference, higher slower stop lower faster  stop
     ySpeed += 0.8;
     _x += xSpeed;
     _y += ySpeed;
     if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
          xSpeed += 5;
     }
     if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
          xSpeed -= 5;
     }
    if (Key.isDown(Key.UP)) {
          ySpeed -= 5;
     }
     if (Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)) {
          ySpeed += 5;
     }
}

Here's how to do key press events (I think)

Code:

keyListener:Object=new Object
keyListener.onKeyDown=function(){
keyPressed=String.fromCharCode(Key.getAscii());
testKey="z"
//the testKey variable is the key that activates a function
if(keyPressed==testKey){
doSomething();
}
}
Key.addEventListener(keyListener)

For keys like the arrows and spacebar, you can ignore the eventListener garbage and simply use:

Code:

if(Key.isDown(Key.SPACE)){
doSomething():
}

Finally, you might consider adding a hidden button that responds to key press events.
Hope this helps!
