Take a look at this screen shot



The center object is what you control.

Press:
right and it rotates right
left and it rotates left
Up and it moves forward


All I am really trying to do at this point is stop the rotation of the image_index when you press up - what i cant figure out is how to make the sprite maintain it's current index.

What happens is if you are rotating right and press up you move forward as eexpected but you continue to fly in a circle because the ship is still rotating right. So instead you have to push left, up, right, up, left, up etc. That's very cumbersome.

no key event:
in script:

image_speed = 0

I must be doing something wrong then. That was the very first thing I tried. Thanks I will look into it. Obviously it was my error somewhere then.

EDIT: Yea I kept trying to change the image_index not image_speed. Just a silly typo. Appreciate it.

in release key event for (up, right, left, down):
script:

image_speed = 0

if it doesn't stop animation, there must be a screwy thing doing it!

Ha we posted at the same time while I was editing.

Yea I kept trying to change the image_index without realizing it. Just a silly typo/not paying attention. Appreciate it.
