Hi Leonard, I'm also a beginner with Greenfoot. I think that the Greenfoot tutorial (see: http://www.greenfootgallery.org/tutorials ) will get you going. The Wombats scenario walks you through the basics of actor movement rather nicely, so I won't quote any of it here, but it's pretty straightforward. BTW the navigation button labeled "Documentation" on this page takes you right to the tutorial. (Hint: Take a look at the move() method in the Wombat object)

Thanks, I was able to make the object move East & West, trying to make it move North & South is completely different. I still haven't figured that out yet, but I'm going to keep trying. Thanks for your help

Hey, You have the isKeyDown() bit right, in the if statement you'll want something like: ...to move up / down. 1 can be a bigger number for faster speeds.

Alternatively if you have a move() method, you can try: For going down: For going up: For going left: For going right: This has some advantages (a major one is if you're wanting to use speeds, or varying speeds), however one problem is that your image (well the image for the actor you are moving) rotates (for obvious reasons). This isn't always a problem, but yeah, just thought I'd suggest that.
