Use the keystate function

if keystate(number of key)=1 then:


keystate number: 17=W, 30=A, 31=S, 32=D

yeah, but a little note here: the w a s d commands r normally not used for movement, as u cant go automatically diagonal in any way, unlike the upkey and downkey and left-right key commands.

anyone no how to do this?

sarin, how many FPS games have you played?
You can go diagonal in that way.

xmove = 0 - keystate(30) + keystate(32)
zmove = 0 - keystate(31) + keystate(17)

position object 1, object position x(1)+xmove, 0, object position z(1)+zmove

XGamer,
Please do not post with so many Question marks and exclamation points in your thread title again.

Your thread title could have simply been summarised to "W,A,S,D movement - How can it be done?"

Thanks,
Jess.
