Hi all,
Im in the process of making my first game - a game based on pacman - and this is my current version: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/Indiego/2370853
My problem is the movement of the pacman, at the moment he only moves if you keep the button held, and it can be a bit glitchy sometimes,

is there any way to make him move, and keep moving in that direction, until another key is pressed or he hits a wall (and then stops).
I tried a few different ways and nothing seems to be working for me sad
Any help would be greatly appreciated big_smile

For moving:

when gf clicked
forever
   move 2 steps
end

For turning:

when gf clicked
forever
   if (key [right arrow v] pressed)
   point in direction [90 v]
end
   if (key [up arrow v] pressed)
   point in direction [0 v]
end
   if (key [left arrow v] pressed)
   point in direction [-90 v]
end
   if (key [down arrow v] pressed)
   point in direction [180 v]
end

don't know at the time how to do the wall sensing

Which Language are you using and on what platform are you making the game on?
