the movement is time based, but it isn't working correctly.
every about 1 second, it stop then continues moving the object.

please help, i don't know what's wrong with it.


1 is player object

EDIT: last section of the code was cut, so i add it

if acceleration#(i)>0 `if object is moving forwarf
if speed#(i)>topspeed#(i) then speed#(i)=topspeed#(i) `don't let object move faster than top speed
else
if speed#(i)<topspeed#(i) then speed#(i)=topspeed#(i)`don't let object move faster than top speed
endif
if object exist(i)=1 and type$(i)="ship" then move object i,speed#(i)*(abs(timer()/1000-speedtimer#(i)/1000)) `move object
speedtimer#(i)=timer() `reset time since last moved
next i

haven't checked your logic, but if you are using speedtimer#, you should divide by 1000.0, not 1000. You may be getting integer answers where you expected reals.

i deleted all the accelerationtimer# and speedtimer# to the lowest section of the loop and it works.
