How do you make your sprite go up and down?
Hi! Its me again, and I was wondering, how do you make a sprite go up and down? I don't mean put on gravity, though. The tutorial videos only showed how to go left and right.

How do you make your sprite go up and down?
Um, in Motion:
Now, we also have this block:
Use negative to make the sprite go down.
This is my favorite script for moving a sprite up and down.
Hope this helps.
set y to (0)This sets your Y-Position, or height, on the screen.
set y to (180)This sets your sprite to the top of the screen.
set y to (-180)This sets your sprite to the bottom of the screen.
Now, we also have this block:
change y by (10)This moves your sprite a number of pixels up.
Use negative to make the sprite go down.
This is my favorite script for moving a sprite up and down.
when green flag clicked
forever
if <key [up arrow v] pressed?> then
change y by (5)
end
if <key [down arrow v] pressed?> then
change y by (-5)
end
Hope this helps.

when [down arrow v] key pressed
change y by (-5)
when [up arrow v] key pressed
change y by (5)
here is another way to do it based on @EduVitae's idea.
hope it works!

Heya! Well there are some ways! But I will show you the easer way!
Here is this one! ^.^ If you put -5 in the insert section it should make it go down. Sorry if I'm wrong.
Then this way SHOULD make it go up. Again sorry if I'm wrong
