@Peter

It might be a bit late, but if you are still struggling on that problem I have found your solution.
When following the tutorial I came across the same problem.

Solution is getting rid of the { and } marks on your control section. After that it will move smoothly acros your stage

@Peter

you may want to check your FPS on the .fla file. In CS4 its under the properties tab the properties/library window o the right of the stage.

check your fps in you fla file. it will be at the bottom under properties. you may have it set too low.

Peter you might check the frame rate of your fla to see if it set too low. That could cause it to be jumpy

First of all: This is a great piece of work! Thank you

Next… Is the code supplied here supposed to behave the same as your compiled examples? When I compile, the movement is much more stuttered as opposed to your examples on the website which have nice smooth movement. The speed doesnt match either… Am I doing something wrong or IS there a difference?

i reinvented this wheel last year. my advice:
change the brightness of the ship according to the direction of the lateral movement. brighter left darker right or reverse.
