Look Mom! I made a player.. Again…

So I started over today with the space shooter 2D. I created a new unity game kept my old one so I can return eventually. I really want to focus on the course work and do the challenges and really study them. I did the challenges on my own and I got it! I figured it out for the most part. Something I did not do before. So what I did after I cleaned up my code was to study the script. Look at it and understand it. See below my calculate movement method.

Horizontal/Vertical Movement

It was a day that was broken up with helping my kids and jumping back on. But it gets more and more familiar going through the course work again and knowing what to look for. Also want to clearly document each section like this so I can revert back and understand the coding if I get blocked again. Can not stress enough to use the blogs as a marker for your self so you can utilise it down the road if you get stuck like me.
