I cant make my objevts go up and down the editor keep saying it dont understand the "object position y 1,+0.5" i tryed to use the code "move player up" before but i had rotated my 3dobject then it didnt go that way i wanted so i changed to this but it didnt work, how do i do?

+ Code Snippet

do

p1mvu=0
p1mvd=0
p2mvu=0
p2mvd=0

if upkey()=1 then p1mvu=1
if downkey()=1 then p1mvd=1
if keystate(17)=1 then p2mvu=1
if keystate(31)=1 then p2mvd=1

if p1mvu=1
   object position y  1,+0.5
endif
if p1mvd=1
   object position y 1,-0.5
endif

if p2mvu=1
   object position y 2,+0.5
endif
if p2mvd=1
   object position y 2,-0.5
endif



sync
loop

Slooper, the reason your code doesnt work is that you are using the wrong command, if you check the help files youll find that 'object position y' is for returning the Y value of an object not changing it...for changing it you have to use the position object, i have modified your code a little and this should get it working how you hoped.

p1mvu=0
p1mvd=0
p2mvu=0
p2mvd=0

if upkey()=1 then p1mvu=1
if downkey()=1 then p1mvd=1
if keystate(17)=1 then p2mvu=1
if keystate(31)=1 then p2mvd=1

x#=object position x(1)
y#=object position y(1)
z#=object position z(1)
x2#=object position x(2)
y2#=object position y(2)
z2#=object position z(2)

if p1mvu=1
   y#=y#+0.5
endif
if p1mvd=1
   y#=y#-0.5
endif

if p2mvu=1
   y2#=y2#+0.5

if p2mvd=1
   y2#=y2#-0.5

There were 2 errors.

if downkey()=1 then p1mvu=1

should have been

if downkey()=1 then p1mvd=1

and this ...

position object 1,x#,y#,z#
position object 1,x2#,y2#,z2#

should have been this

position object 1,x#,y#,z#
position object 2,x2#,y2#,z2#

Full new code is
