What can I use to move the sprite with x and y at the same time, sort of as a diagonal path?

Or is Scratch incapable of it? I don't want it to go one way and then the other to go diagonal, I want it to happen all in one.

An example is, if I press the "Up" key, it will move diagonally.

You could use the <move( )steps>?

Or, you could use:

<go to x sad <x position> + how much you want to change X by )y sad <y position> + how much you want to change Y by

I'm not sure if you can, but tell me if the above methods worked!

When key up pressed
change x by 5
change y by -5

You want something like that right? Just try it in scratch and see if you get the results you wanted.

I think PrimusGod is saying that a script that changes both X and Y at the same time is needed. That will have a slight time delay.

Why did I say "that" so many times up there?!

I use that kind of script all the time to move diagonally and it doesn't give me problems. But you you want to do it with just 1 block you could do this

Code:

when up pressed
go to x:(x position+5) y:(y position-5)

Actually, it does when using the pen.

I seperated the x and y in my mouse recorder project that comes with Scratch ( in the Lists folder) because I thought it was easier to understand but the result is awful neutral

Oops... It isn't in there anymore smile There was a list folder with my project in it in 1.3...

You could try one of the above methods, or you could just point in a diagonal direction and use "move ___ steps," though I do frown upon it.
