Hi there, I am pretty far with my 3th-person game but my problem is I can't seem to get my character strafing. I have this:

+ Code Snippet

if upkey()=1 then x#=newxvalue(x#,a#,10) : z#=newzvalue(z#,a#,10)
if downkey()=1 then x#=newxvalue(x#,a#,-10) : z#=newzvalue(z#,a#,-10)

rem this is the part I want to use for the strafing
if leftkey()=1 then x#=newxvalue(z#,a#,10) : z#=newzvalue(x#,a#,10)
if rightkey()=1 then x#=newxvalue(z#,a#,-10) : z#=newzvalue(x#,a#,-10) 
rem here ends the part that does not work

if mousemovex() then a#=wrapvalue(a#+mousemovex())
if mousemovey() then cy#=wrapvalue(cy#+mousemovey())

but it does not work properly. Does anybody can get this to work?

I have posted some strafing code on my website

http://www.delvarworld.com

Go to programming and scroll to the bottom of that page, there's some DB code snippets there. Strafing and mouselook is one of them.

Hey thanks, it works!
Had to change a few variables but strafing is no problem now.
