Get An Object To Follow The Mouse?

Dec 26, 2009

I am using CS3 and trying to get an object to follow the mouse and having a hard time finding a tutorial on this, because all of the ones i have found want me to add the actionscript to the MC, and my version of flash won't let me do that. Flash expects me to attach it to the frame and so the code doesn't work.

IDE :: Get An Object To Follow The Mouse?

Feb 24, 2010

...without using the startDrag method. I know I can use code like this inside of a mouse event listener/function:

Code:
objectMC.x=mouseX;
objectMC.y=mouseY;

This code makes the object move with the mouse, but only if I move the mouse very slowly. When I move the mouse quickly, the mouse leaves the area of the object and thus the MOUSE_OVER listener stops listening, causing the object to stop.

Code:

Mar 30, 2009

How would i go about to achive this effect? If possible without having the line itself being within the dragable movieclip (because the dragable box is in more than one frame and i only want the line in one frame)

ActionScript 2.0 :: Get Object To Follow Cursor And Stop?

Jan 7, 2010

I am trying to get an object to follow the mouse cursor only when the cursor is within a certain range of the object.

I would also like the object to stop when the cursor is directly over it, so that it becomes a selectable button.

Lastly, I would like to apply this to many objects, that don't overlap, but rather, "bounce off" of one another. An example of this is at

[URL]

The code I have so far is:

ball_mc.onEnterFrame = function() {
var xMouse = _root._xmouse;
var yMouse = _root._ymouse;

[Code]....

"ball_mc" of course, is the instance name of the object that I have created.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Get A Mask To Follow An Object Or The Mouse?

Nov 14, 2010

I continue in my adventure with customizing a horizontal slider's functions. This is the very last thing I need to figure out and it is done.I have posted an SWF at the following link so you can see it working: neterhetdotcom/test/slidermask/ (change "dot" to a period "." as i am not yet able to post links)If you click on the scrollbar. You will see that a mask follows the click and displays an "orange" color... this orange color is supposed to indicate the progress of the slider across the scroll bar. the mask is positioned just to the left of the slider on the click so it allows the "orange" color for "progress" of the slider to "show up".

If you click and hold on the slider the mask does not track this motion. I need to know how to make the mask track the mouse along with the slider. The mask would have to align it's right edge to the point of the mouse click for it to work as the mask is the same width and just slightly taller than the visual scrollbar. (a narrow rectangle as well)How the scrollbars is set up in Flash is I have 2 layers with the scrollbar art on each. the bottom one is the default greay "off" state.. the top one is the orange "progress" state that has a mask attached to it so when the mask slides the orange shows up or goes away. (Thus indicating the progress of the slider across and back)So either the mask has to follow the slider button (on the left edge of the slider button) or the mask has to follow along with the slider on the mousedown state...(as long as the mask had it's right edge aligned to the mouse click)

ActionScript 3.0 :: Make An Object To Follow A Specific Path?

May 2, 2010

make my hero go back to his shelter when he finds some food or when he approaches an enemy. It looks like this:

1. The hero is in the shelter.
2. The hero is hungry.
3. The hero leaves the base to hunt some animals down.
4. The hero is full and is headed back to the shelter.
5. He moves in the direction of where the base is.

So, once again, how do I make my hero go back to where he came from? How do I make my hero's x and y position to fit the way back home?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Button Talk To Follow Mouse Object?

Nov 6, 2010

I'm making a flash page with a basket movie clip that follows my mouse. The basket has a stop action on frame one so it stays there unless directed otherwise. Then I have a movie clip of a green berry that I made into a button (titled gb1). I need to make it so that when that is clicked it makes the basket go to the next frame (numbers change to show how many berries were collected). Here is my (unsuccessful) code as of now.

//1.
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,followBas ket);
//2.
function followBasket(event:Event):void {
var dx:int = basket.x - mouseX;

ActionScript 2.0 :: Object Follow Mouse At Constant Speed?

Sep 13, 2009

I am using Flash 8 and AS2. I have been looking and looking, but I cannot find how to have an object follow the mouse at a Constant speed. The code I keep on finding is something like this:
Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
_x = 0;
_y = 0;
speed = 5;
} onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
endX = _root._xmouse;
endY = _root._ymouse;
_x += (endX-_x)/speed;
_y += (endY-_y)/speed;
}
The "/speed" part makes the object move slower the closer it gets.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Scroll Side To Side By Having An Object Follow The Mouse?

Sep 22, 2011

How would I be able to create a scene where you scroll left to right using the mouse, but instead of having it at a constant rate and having the picture (background) move when your mouse is at a certain x coordinate to have it be that when you move the mouse away from an object the background will move, and will move faster the farther away the mouse is? I have tried scrolling back and forth with x coordinates, but I haven't been able to get this to work.

(I found an example of what I'm trying to describe here; [URL], just click play, skip, leave, and then leave again and you'll be able to see it).
