My code is identical to yours. After the first jump, the character lands roughly around y=5 and jumps from that reference and lands there after that.

So the problem i have now, is that it has different images for each key. Therefor i used this: mcMain.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, moveChar); function moveChar(event:Event):void { //if certain keys are down then move the character if (leftKeyDown) { mcMain.x-=mainSpeed; mcMain.scaleX=-1; mcMain.gotoAndStop('run'); } else if (rightKeyDown) { mcMain.x+=mainSpeed; mcMain.scaleX=1; mcMain.gotoAndStop('run'); } else if (upKeyDown||mainJumping) { mainJump(); mcMain.gotoAndStop('jump'); } else { mcMain.gotoAndStop('stand'); } } but when i use the keys i can not use jump and run at the same time. And i can run in the air :P can you please help me with this problem? tnx wow, one year later… and there comes my question :P

Are there KeyCodes for every key on the keyboard, if so how do I obtain a copy if not, please explain why you use keyCodes?

I find that many tutorials teaching how to make a platformer just ignore this and do the simple object thing. ok so what if we want a character who looks different when they move left or right?
