Hi I'm Lee,
I've used this command to get my objects moving:

move object 14,-1.3
move object 3,-1.0
move object 8,-1.0
move object 16,-1.0
move object 2,-1.0
move object 19,0.1

Someone told me that the second load of digits (the 1.0's ) make the object start moving in that amount of steps, but my objects just keep on going and don't stop. I'm using negative numbers because my object travels that way. If you can't use negative numbers please tell me. I'm killing myself trying to work this one out. Thanks a lot.

Hi Lee, If your program looks like this :

DO
Move object 1,1.0
Loop

Then your objects will keep moving because every time the program comes over the line Move object, it will move that object, you could make it like this :

DO
IF UPKEY() = 1
MOVE OBJECT 1,1.0
ENDIF
LOOP

Now the object will only move when you press upkey.
Let me know if this solves your problem or if I should help you further
