I thought it'd be by doing this: > If user presses "SPACE BAR" + If user presses "UP ARROW" But it doesn't work for me. I also tried to simultaneously press SPACE BAR and the UP ARROW when I was prompted as to which key should the event check on press to have it as a single event, but that didn't cut it either. I know that in VB different keys have different ASC codes that correspond with them (ex. the <ENTER> key = ASC code 13), does the solution have to do with their ASC codes? I'm sure it's easy, but how do you do it? Thanks! -- "Del Duio has received 0 trophies. Click here to see them all."

The spindash move requires two buttons to be pressed however you don't need to see if two buttons are pressed you can use something else like an animation or a value. (1)Repeat while user presses down - set animation to crouch (2)Animation crouch is playing +Upon pressing button 1 that should work too. .

They way you've got it coded Del, the person would have to press both buttons in the exact same loop. That's press, not hold down. Edited by the Author. Craps, I'm an old man!

The way I have it now, my guy can do an upward slash while he's jumping, but I also wanted to give the player the option to do the same attack while standing on the ground with space + up. I'll code this after work straightaway. I don't believe I've ever used the repeat while key is down, but it all makes sense now, doh! -- "Del Duio has received 0 trophies.
