Scratch

I don't understand what you mean... I've tried repositioning them, but they always revert back to their first positions.

Oh, wait, I've got it. Something odd happened with this pole I put as part of the first terrain; whenever i touched it, I fell through the ground...

It doesn't matter at this point. Don't worry about it    I also wanted to ask, how would you add a ducking action to the player?

I tried that. I used an If and Else block. The If part for when down was pressed then go into a duck, and the Else part for if it wasn't then go into the standing stance. It's the Else part that I'm having trouble with. I left it as go into stance 1 when down isn't pressed, but then I had to find a way of getting the other animations to work, because it would just stay stuck in stance 1. I nearly had it right when I said, "Else, If not up pressed or right pressed or left pressed or SPACE pressed, then go into stance 1." When I used this, it wouldn't complete the jumping animation, because you usually let go of the up key when you're in the air, right? When you stop pressing it, it goes back to stance 1... Can you suggest an easier way of making sure that if down isn't pressed then continue with all other animations as normal?

Oh, that's absolutely brilliant!    Hah, shows what little I know.

Sorry to bother you so much, but I need my character to be able to die. How would I go about doing this so that the character would display an animation, then go back to the beginning of the level with one less life?

Thanks again 

Thanks a lot Archmage    You've been really helpful.

Sorry I haven't been replying or anything; I couldn't get online.

Is there any way to add a y axis scroll too?
