Custom Event-Based Topdown movement.

Here's a little .cap I did to help some newbies to start scripting their movements from scratch.

Commands :

WSAD = Movement

Mouse = Look around

this helps, but im looking to replicate the car movements up arrow function. accelerating towards the direction the sprite is facing..which would be sprite.angle. but i dont know how to addd that speed. i tried everything in the physics section and some in the other

That's a nice example. I especially like the smooth rotation instead of instantly pointing at the mouse.

Good job <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" />
