How would I implement keyboard controls for an FPS game? (upkey moving foward, downkey moving backwards, left key strafing left, rightkey moving to right side)? im having trouble with the coding for it...
thanks

Here you go m8, hope it helps

+ Code Snippet

 
   speed#=10.0

    rem /* mouse movements */
    mx#=wrapvalue(mx#+mousemovey()/3)
    my#=wrapvalue(my#+mousemovex()/3)
    mz#=wrapvalue(mz#+mousemovez()/3)

    rem /* smooth angle rotation */
    ca#=wrapvalue(curveangle(mx#,ca#,2.5))
    cb#=wrapvalue(curveangle(my#,cb#,2.5))
    cc#=wrapvalue(curveangle(mz#,cc#,2.5))

    rem /* player controls */
    if upkey()=1 then x#=x#+sin(my#)*speed#:z#=z#+cos(my#)*speed#
    if downkey()=1 then x#=x#-sin(my#)*speed#:z#=z#-cos(my#)*speed#
    if leftkey()=1 then x#=x#+sin(my#-90)*speed#:z#=z#+cos(my#-90)*speed#
    if rightkey()=1 then x#=x#+sin(my#+90)*speed#:z#=z#+cos(my#+90)*speed#

    rem /* smooth positioning */
    cx#=curvevalue(x#,cx#,5.0)
    cz#=curvevalue(z#,cz#,5.0)

    rem /* camera movement */
    rotate camera ca#,cb#,cc#
    position camera cx#,y#,cz#
