Sorry guys, but here's another stupid question. I want to make a player controlled character walk, but I can't get it to stop walking when it stops moving and resume walking when it's moving again.

Just some basics:

You need some kind of multiple stage handling:
if Walking key pressed
 if walking=0
  walking=1
  animate walkloop with smooth transition
 endif
else
 if walking=1
  walking=0
  animate idleloop with smooth transition
 endif
endif

additionally you may use a variable walking speed

if walking=1
 if walkspeed#<1.0 then walkspeed#=walkspeed# + 0.1
endif

if walking=0
 if walkspeed#>0.0 then walkspeed#=walkspeed# - 0.1
endif

moveentity character,0,0,walkspeed#

From the Castel demo...

	
If KeyDown(203)	;left/right
		TurnEntity p\entity,0,6,0	;turn player left/right
	Else If KeyDown(205)
		TurnEntity p\entity,0,-6,0
	EndIf
	
	If KeyDown(30)		;forward
		If p\anim_speed<=0
			p\anim_speed=1.75
			Animate p\model,1,p\anim_speed
		EndIf
		MoveEntity p\entity,0,0,1
	Else If KeyDown(44)	;back
		If p\anim_speed>=0
			p\anim_speed=-1.75
			Animate p\model,1,p\anim_speed
		EndIf
		MoveEntity p\entity,0,0,-1
	Else If p\anim_speed	;stop animating
		p\anim_speed=0
		Animate p\model,0
	EndIf
