Sprite gliding...
Here is a question that I still can't figure the answer to. How do you make a sprite move back and forth on the x axis? I've tried to use the [blocks]<change x by( [/blocks]
block, but it gets stuck on one side... 
Please help- I need it so I can make an arcade game( the space one where you move back and forth on the bottom of the screen- shooting at the ships at the top).
Thanks for the help!

You can place negative numbers in the block.
They will make the sprite move left.I tried that too, it still gets stuck bouncing off the wall- then trying to do it again!
Any other ideas?
Are you using the [if on edge, bounce] block?

Hmph enjoy your fall - I get a lovely spring... without pans of new leaves.

Re: Sprite gliding...
If it isn't working, then it is some sort of glitch. But it should work. Just to make sure you are doing it right:
<change x by( 50
<change x by( -50
