Re: I need help with some gaming stuff please help.
http://scratch.mit.edu/forums/viewtopic.php?id=88043 has tutorials for mostly everything you need help with.
For everything else, I suggest learning the basics of programming. I also suggest starting on something simpler, a simple weapon switcher, gravity, scrolling, etc. Do them all in separate projects and then combine what you have learned into more complicated projects.
For 6: Scratch can do multiplayer, but it requires learning another language, waiting till Scratch 2.0, or modifying or getting a modified version of Scratch. It's also really quite complicated. There are probably less than 50 multiplayer Scratch games, and less than 250 projects that use networking in general.
Once you learn how to do complicated things in Scratch, come over into the Advanced Topics forum and we'll help you out with multiplayer/networking.
