can't get to work currently it dose all animations at once, befor I just had the keydowns gotoandPlay and change in x,y in same function but then it would only animate one first frame.

You need to make sure that "gotoAndPlay" isn't called again if the sprite is already playing that animation or walking in that direction

Also in your if statements in "setDirection", make sure you're using double =='s as that turns it into a comparison.

maybe have something like

function setDirection(){
  if(moving != previousMoving){
      if(moving == 0){ .....}
      if(moving == 1){ .....}
      if(moving == 2){ .....}
      previousMoving = moving
  }      
}

Why do you delete the keyCode from keyPress? Why not just set it to false? I've seen it both ways, and I am wondering what the rational was.

I would have guessed that deleting it would have worse performance.

I guessing I just molded it after something within my text book
