Space Invaders Type Game

[N64MARIO64]

I'm working on a space invaders type game and I'm working on learning Action Script. If someone can help and tell me the code to make the ship move up and down. The target name is 'ship' Thanks -mario

These scripts should be put in the 'ship' movie clip. I believe they are all correct but since I haven't been able to check them, write back if there's a problem.


// THIS SCRIPT ASSUMES YOU WANT THE SHIP TO MOVE WHILE THE UP AND DOWN BUTTONS ARE BEING HELD.


onClipEvent (load)
speed = 2
// The higher you set the variable speed, the faster the ship will move.
}

onClipEvent (enterFrame)
if (Key.isDown(Key.UP) && !Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)
setProperty("_root.ship", _y, ("_root.ship", _y) - speed);
}

if (Key.isDown(Key.DOWN) && !Key.isDown(Key.UP)
setProperty("_root.ship", _y, ("_root.ship", _y) + speed);
}
}


// THIS SCRIPT ASSUMES YOU WANT THE SHIP TO MOVE EACH TIME THE UP AND DOWN BUTTONS ARE PRESSED.


onClipEvent (load)
speed = 2
// The higher you set the variable speed, the faster the ship will move.
}

onClipEvent (keyDown) {
if (Key.getCode(Key.DOWN))
setProperty("_root.ship", _y, ("_root.ship", _y) + speed);
}
if (Key.getCode(Key.UP))
setProperty("_root.ship", _y, ("_root.ship", _y) - speed);
}
}



// THIS SCRIPT ASSUMES YOU WANT THE SHIP TO MOVE WITH THE MOUSE.


onClipEvent (enterFrame)
setProperty("_root.ship", _y, _ymouse);
}
