this helped me a lot thanks! :)

@coolguyflex Oh sorry, i forgot. You can't set indexes like that in vectors.

Well a boolean array then, wouldn't that be more efficient?

[coolguyflex]

wouldn't it be faster to use a boolean vector,

and then just set it by index?

[segavagrant]

There IS a way to get your keys to get detected along with other keys with the help of Boolean Variables. I tried it out with Run, and i got it. Anyone need the code?

@ShadowErocos yes e stands for event. Some ppl use evt - it's the same as event. :)

Wouldn't it be better to just set keyspressed[e.keyCode] to 'true' and 'false' each time and then return keyspressed[keys]? I don't know how actionscript handles the 'in' keyword but I guess it would iterate over the entire array. Thus, you're doing the check in O(n) instead of O(1) which it should be. Also, I guess that delete actually removes the references from the associative array, which is considerably slower than just changing a boolean.

exactly what I needed, thank you. I can't wait for the cs5 tutorials
