Question

Hi, I want to do  righr/left button controlled movieclip but dont know how to set X axis limit, the movieclip dont leave stage. Want the movieclip move only move to right or left side.  Will anybody help me?

Ned Murphy · Answer

You need to make use of conditional code that checks the current x property to see if moving further will vilate the limit and if so you skip the movement.

In your right movement code it would be something like...

if(movieclip.x + stepsize < right_side_limit){

movieclip.x += stepsize;

} else {

// do nothing (or something else )

}

Similar code would be used in the left direction movement code.
