I ran into a small probklem when animating a 3d object for my first time. i wanted to move it around using arrow keys left and right to turn and forwards and backwards to walk. however when i turn the object z no longer works for forwards and backwards it still is just for z axis . i would appreciate some help to get it to work please.
COLOR BACKDROP 1
`this is a simple cshop flat suface for ground
load object "C:\board.x",1
load object "C:\board_lm.x",2
`simple dark matter alien animation
LOAD OBJECT "c:\h-alien mutant-move.X",3
loop object 3,0,23
position object 3,0,-30,0
SCALE OBJECT 3,2000,2000,2000
set ambient light 100
DO
if upkey()=1
position object 3,object position x(3),object position y(3),object position z(3)+1
endif
IF RIGHTKEY()=1
turn object right 3,1
endif
if leftkey()=1
turn object left 3,1
endif
loop
alos i woul appreciate it if someone could tell me how to get him sto stick to the gorund. beside just positioning him in that spot "like gravity or somthing."
