It might have something to do with the fact that you have both dbPlayObject and dbLoopObject. So try removing one of them then testing it.

The reason is that each time you press the up key, you are starting the animation over again, you need to seperate the animation handling from the movement. To put it simply, your character is getting stuck on the first frame of animation over and over, you are not giving it a chance to play the animation through as each time the program detects a keypress it will reset the animation.

If it ain't broke.... DONT FIX IT !!!

Or you could simply do:


This will accomplish the same thing as SFCBias's code without the extra variable, but if you use his code it could have advantages when adding other features to your character's gameplay. (checking when the player can jump or crouch for example)

thanks everyone i found it out it was somewhat harder than u put on i dont have internet is why it took me here is the code i used

if(dbUpKey()==1)
{
dbMoveObject(1,5);
dbLoopObject(1,300,318);
}
if(dbDownKey()==1)
{
dbMoveObject(1,-5);
dbLoopObject(1,300,318);
}

if(dbUpKey()==0) if(dbDownKey()==0)
{
dbLoopObject(1,210,232);
}
[/quote] this is what i used and it works as you see there is more than one way to do it for those who need help with what you may need

if it works thats great but looking at that code it seems it would just continue to loop even after you have stopped pressing the button.
