Hey everyone im not new to flash, ive always made movies you see and ive never used action script and im thinking of making a windows parody as just a test not a portal submit but then if i think its good enough i wanna start this game called "Robot Arena" of destruction were you can build bots and then use simple keys to move and use its weapon but first i just need to know how to make a simple click n move flash ...

Suggestions on game please
Help in action script please

[TormentedAngel23]

Sorry for repost i forgot to say i know how to do basic stuff, make a figure move and stuff like a ball or a custom cursor just need to know how to make like buttons to go to a diff frame and how to make like the ball aka robot for instance would get stoped at a wall or somthing.

Holy crap! The rare-unholy quadrople post!!!

Anywayy, buttons are easy. In the button put:

on(release){
gotoAndPlay(2); /////// or whatever you want it do
}

K.. well tell me if this is good for a second try at a simple platformer
http://media.putfile.com/My-second-platformer

now 3 things how would i make it so when my character aka the ball goes on the light blue block aka ice he would slide.

How would i make it so when he touchs flag it goes to like frame 2 aka level 2.

And how would i make it so if i click a certin symbol it would bring me to a differnt frame?

The guy above already said the how to make a button,you should also stop copying and pasting code without understanding it :(.if you start from scratch and read tutorials throughly then you wouldn't need help!

[TormentedAngel23]

i did im not copying and pasteing im just looking at tutorials... and how would i do ice and the level skip.

Well first of all your graphics are horrible.
Secondly, your games are so buggy that I hate actually even testing them for you.

[TormentedAngel23]

first off... thats alot of bumbs...

anyways... remeber to put the button code on a button type item that code doesnt work in the frame or an mc/graphic

as for sliding you want a variable called friction... and implement it like so...

//put me in the frame
friction = 0
dir = 0
onEnterFrame = function(){
if(Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)){
dir = 1
}else if (Key.isDown(key.LEFT)){
dir = 2
}
if(/* character is on platform */){
friction = 1
}else{
firction = 0
}
if(dir == 1){
char._x += friction
}else if(dir == 2){
char._x -= friction
}
}
//keep in mind this a very simple method and thus you will want to adapt it

ok so i choose my light blue retangles and put that code in by it self. i get a error and my guy cant go on that spot anymore.
