[Request] Flash AS2 code help

ok, I have this spiky ball character, instead of walking. I want him to roll.
I have a code:


	Code: onClipEvent (load) { gravity = 5; speed = 5; spin = 0; } onClipEvent (enterFrame) { gravity++; _y += gravity; if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) { this._x -= speed; if (spin<10) { _rotation -= spin; _rotation--; spin++; } if (spin>10) { _rotation -= spin; _rotation--; spin--; } } if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) { this._x += speed; if (spin<10) { _rotation += spin; _rotation++; spin++; } if (spin>10) { _rotation += spin; _rotation++; spin--; } } }

Now, for some reason, when I press left or right, it rotates for a little bit but then stops. Could some one help? Thanks!

For one, the whole thing is coded really awkwardly.

Why don't you just have the left and right keys change the spin and then apply the spin to the object?

And what's the point of the gravity at all?

I don't have flash on me so I can't test s***.

Thats probibly were I messed up. Thanks!
btw the gravity is for something. When the spike guy rolls off a cliff... whatever. Thanks again!
EDIT: just realized that I already have it to spin the object... It spins the object, but only for a little bit... I'd like it to continuously spin. What I did with my code is that I have the spin set to zero, so when Left/right is pressed, it spins slowly, then faster (acceleration!). once it gets to the speed I want it to, I made it that if the spin speed gets above 10, that it equals ten, so it doesn't go faster. When I try it out, it starts slowly, then once it gets to my desired speed... it stops. Sorry for the wall of text, just trying to elaborate for better help.
