Hey all,
Firstly, I'm a designer, not a developer, so bear with the noobness of this post.
I have a little animated banner and I'd like to be able to input some keyboard control of the logo as if it were a game sprite. The symbol is called "invader" and all I want is simple left/right arrow controll to move the symbol. Ultimately I'd like the translation to run a little loop on that symbols timeline too, but right now I'd settle for just getting it to move.
I figured out how to add keyboard input, added to the stage:
if (e.which == 37) {
// do something
}
This works if that something is another EA snipet like get url or whatever. My problem is I have no idea what to do about the position var. Do I add some variables on the symbol or add them to the stage as well?
All the tuts I can find are either too off topic or too complex for me to adapt. Anyone have time to give me a quick lesson? (it's not important so please don't waste too much time with it...)
Cheers.
