Ive managed the boundaries completely, and the movement. i have a few things i have to take care of, but for now im good. Thanks a lot for that little push....

Thanks! this works really well. btw, would u know how to set boundaries? so that if the player moves out of bounds, they simply cannot move more? (for walls and the edge of the form)

EDIT
