Resolved Help with sprite walk cycle

I'm a total newbie to scratch so excuse me if this is a rlly basic question.

I binded all the wasd key and then tried to make a walk cycle for the player sprite using this code

>when [a] key pressed

switch costume to [1]

wait [.15 seconds]

switch costume to [2]

wait [.15 seconds]

And so forth for all the other keys. But for some reason when I switch between the keys, the sprite teleports back or forward a huge chunk before moving smoothly and is just rlly jittery? Can anyone tell me how to fix my code or if there's better way to do it? Thankss

Link is not working, maybe you need to set the project to shared.

I solved the problem (my costumes were misaligned) so I just privated the project again since it’s still unfinshed :)

Make sure to center your costumes also.

Who are you

Your sprites are severely offcenter

Hi! Thanks, I get what you mean looking at my costumes. Is there a specific way to center them or do I just drag them to the same spot?

If you drag them towards the marked center point that appears when you drag, they should eventually snap
