While using the "on key press" command, I noticed that the scancode didn't have the standard up key downkey in it and there constants didn't work. Is there anyway I can use the up key and down key with key press or an alternative? I really don't want to use keys like H B N M

you could improvise, like use "key is pressed" command.

Flamer, he is talking about the "is key pressed" command.
lethal, take another look at scancode.hsi, in the middle of the NUMPAD definitions.

Add

" include, scancode.hsi "

at the beginning of your file and you can do it Flamer's way (Key: Up , etc.)

It's rather simple, really.
"is key pressed" is a command
"on key press" is a script.

And, Shadow, he said he's been looking through scancode, so he obviosuly has it included already. ~~Way to go not reading all of his post, you silly wombat.~~

the command is "key is pressed(scancode)," uncy.

Sorry, I was getting confused with something else.

plotscr.hsd already has upkey, dowkey, leftkey, menukey, cancelkey, etc defined though.

It never worked for me until I included scancode, MCW. Believe me, I tried.
