Problem description:
This is my gravity system, but as it is at the moment the client gains power without even moving.I want the client to be gaining power as they move around the gravity chamber and not by just standing around

Change Move() to do that, then.

Yes, but how exactly would i go about doing that?

By putting, in Move(), whatever it is you want to have happen whenever something moves.

Yup, I have already tried that with the while proc but the world crashes at run time.Is there a better alternative?

This would be because you are using spawn() where you mean to be using sleep(). Look them up in the Reference.

And you aren't using Move() at all here so I have to wonder how you could possibly think that you've already tried that.

hmm.. i thought i was using it in my previous post but this is the best i've came up with,but i still have not got the results that i wanted.

What i am trying to do is for every step the client takes, the gravitylvl1() runs.The code above runs it regardless if the client is moving or not.I dont know how to actually control the steps the client takes or how to tell if they have moved.

It takes me about two seconds to see that you have put absolutely nothing in the Move() proc and therefore what you have will not do anything upon a player moving.

If you want something to happen when a mob moves, it goes in Move().
