I need to get an object to move really slow so I used MoveObject with speed set as 1. This isn't slow enough though, so I wondered if there's a way of making an object move even slower.
I could make the object into a character and move it by changing the character[].x and -.y variables but that's not really elegant, i think.
Does anyone have an idea how to do it?
I've found this (keyword: "slower"):

I second Gilbert's feature request mentioned above (e.g. MoveObject with a speed of -3 would cause the object to move at speed 1/3, etc). I can think of a lot of useful applications for that, actually.
Why not move it at the lowest speed, with triplet frames (Thus you show Frame1-Frame1-Frame1-Frame2-Frame2-Frame2 etc.)?
no, cause at least in my case, its one frame of the object, and we want it to slowly move across the screen. but it zooms across the screen.
Yes, this has been requested before and is on my to-do list.
As long as you move in a straight line, my sscript (that strazer already rerferenced) in http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=14871 shoudl do the trick for you. This has been used successfulyl in the FoY demo.
