I am having a huge problem with getting my code to work right. I want to move left right up and down, but I keep getting errors with my code. This is my very first game made and I just started coding, but I think I got most of it right.
CODE(BELOW)

#pragma strict

var moveup :KeyCode;
var movedown :KeyCode;
var moveleft :KeyCode;
var moveright :KeyCode;
var speed : float = 10;

function Update () 
{
  if (Input.GetKey(moveup))
  {
    rigidbody2D.velocity.y = speed;
  }
  else if (Input.GetKey(movedown))
  {
    rigidbody2D.velocity.y = speed *-1;
  }
  else 
  {
    rigidbody2D.velocity.y =0;
  }

  if (Input.GetKey(moveleft))
  {
    rigidbody2D.velocity.x = speed *-1;
  }
  else if (Input.GetKey(moveright)).x = speed;
  {
  else
  {
    rigidbody2D.velocity.x =0;
  }
};

Without the ACTUAL error, this becomes difficult. but off the bat, your if statements are malformed, you have a variable being set in an else if condition…, adjust to:

  #pragma strict
  var moveup :KeyCode;
  var movedown :KeyCode;
  var moveleft :KeyCode;
  var moveright :KeyCode;
  var speed : float = 10;
  function Update ()
  {
    if (Input.GetKey(moveup))
    {
      rigidbody2D.velocity.y = speed;
    }
    else if (Input.GetKey(movedown))
    {
      rigidbody2D.velocity.y = speed *-1;
    }
    else
    {
      rigidbody2D.velocity.y =0;
    }

    if (Input.GetKey(moveleft))
    {
      rigidbody2D.velocity.x = speed *-1;
    }
    else if (Input.GetKey(moveright))
    {
      rigidbody2D.velocity.x = speed;
    }
    else
    {
      rigidbody2D.velocity.x =0;
    }
  };

Thank you so much!
