Changing the speed a character travels across the screen

When editing an activity that includes collecting objects, (or avoiding objects), you can alter the speed a character moves to the left and right.

Within a platform activity if you right click on the "test activity" (green triangle) you can alter the following code;

_root.dx=4;

The smaller the value, the slower the character will move. This can be handy if you are creating an activity in a water setting, where movements will be slower.
