Scratch

yeah, the 'adventures of main guy' was a school project. I mightwin an iPod nano with it 
if you look at the script for that one, you will see all the headaches I had just by looking atthe variable names lol it was hard!

Well thats more like it    but would be nice if somehow the ship could be controlled better but i just wondered if it would work better if there were 2 extra sprites- circulating above and below the direction your pointing at... (like for instance 2 moons and the earth in the middle... the earth is the ship... directly where ur pointing at (a distance away) is the first moon... 180% away from where ur pointing at is the other moon).... so if u could use if hit forward key (glide to x position + y position of the 1st moon) and hit backwards key to glide to the position of the 2nd moon- could that work? I could try and do this but would take me a day lol

Lol sorry hehe (i got carried away + my kids destroying things in my house- hard to think  )

So like directly from where the ship is pointing at (a distance away) is another spite that always stays in the same postion/ equal distance away...

180 degrees (at a distance away) from where ur pointing at is another spite.

They both move equally + at the same distance along with the direction ur pointing at. So if u turned ur ship 360 degrees- both these added on spites will move in a circle

Mayb for the first sprite directly infront of the pointing direction (glide to x position + y position of the spite) so when u hit forward key- it may glide towards it.... same with backwards key- glide to sprite thats positioned 180 degrees from the pointing direction.

I'll try it when i get time lol... see if that works... thats the only way i think it can be done other than moving the background instead of the player

Ok mate, i've modified it to work with both players, see if it what you need

You guys, this is ridiculously easy.

when gf clicked
forever
 if <key [up arrow v] pressed?>
 change [fvel v] by (1)
 end
if <key [down arrow v] pressed?>
 change [fvel v] by (-1)
 end
 if <key [right arrow v] pressed?>
 change [tvel v] by (1)
 end
 if <key [left arrow v] pressed?>
 change [tvel v] by (-1)
 end
set [fvel v] to ((fvel) * (0.95))
set [tvel v] to ((tvel) * (0.84))
move (fvel) steps
turn cw (tvel) degrees

Looking at ur script on ur game: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/Paddle2See/180740  How do u set the max speed to 2? Been tryin to figure it out myself for the last 3 hrs    Too tierd hehe

After changing the speed, add this:

if<(speed) > (2)>
set [speed v] to (2)
end
