Most users do
when spacebar pressed
change y by 5
wait 1 sec
change y by -5

but this is choppy.

if want want smoother motion and longer hang time,
youll want to add regular.increaing exponential intervals on the Y axis along.withh decreasing jntervals.at the same rate.
(check out my Flea project. Its got it on there)
PS sorry if I sound like a.salesman. xD)

Try the script

when gf clicked
forever if <key [space v] pressed>
   repeat (10)
      change y by ( (x)  *  (x) )
      change [x v] by [1]
   end
   repeat (10)
      change y by ( (x)  *  (x) )
      change [x v] by [-1]
   end
end

as a part of a "one sprite, one script" structure and a jump script

Yes, that. What he said.

I would try this:

1. Create a variable called "yvel".
2. Add this script to your sprite:

when gf clicked
set [yvel v] to [0]
forever
 if <touching [ground v]?> //Whatever your ground is. Edge works too.
  set [yvel v] to [0]
 else
  change y by (yvel)
  change [yvel v] by (-0.1)
 end
 if <<key [up arrow v] pressed?> and <touching [ground v]?>> //Your ground.
  repeat until <not <touching [ground v]?>> //Your ground.
   change y by (5)
  end
  set [yvel v] to [5]
 end
end

[/scratchblocks]

Or you could set it to a certain colour, which you would outline the background/sprite in, wich I find works a little better. They both work though. Oh, and SciTecCfs' method works really nice too.
