ActionScript 2.0 :: Making Eyes Follow The Cursor [FMX]?

Nov 14, 2002

I know how to make something follow the cursor (e.g. a ball that moves where your cursor does). However, I'm having a lot of trouble figuring out how to do what I need to for an animation, namely make eyes follow a cursor.Here's the situation: I need to make a graphic (the eye in the middle of the eyeball) follow the cursor (i.e. look up, look left, look in any number of diagonal directions) depending on where the user moves the cursor. But the eyes, obviously, need to stay put in one static spot and move in a very limited region (the entire white part of the eye, but not beyond it).

Furthermore, the eyes start out staring at the user. How do I additionally make them dart to the edges where they'll be looking around once the cursor is moved?

ActionScript 3.0 :: MC To Follow Cursor But Not Off Stage?

Aug 27, 2010

I have some info boxes that show up upon MOUSE_OVER of an MC.  I set their position to mouseX and mouseY once I want them to appear.  The problem is that when I mouse over something near the edge of my stage, the info box appears beyond the stage's bounds.  Is there a way I can contrain the infobox X,Y so that it does not go off the state?
 
Right now, this is how I define the X,Y of the text box (pretty simple).
 
trlinfotxt.x = mouseX;trlinfotxt.y = mouseY;

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.

May 4, 2010

I want to make a mc stick to a cursor from the start and then drop the mc.So far I know how to make a mc follow the cursor and drag and drop a mc.I need an AS3 code for "dropping" a mc at a position (cursor must transform into regular arrow again)The position the cursor needs to snap to is another mc - it should be the nearest, so the distance needs to be measured. So the position is not a grid, but the mc's is can be dropped onto are always on the same positions.

Apr 21, 2005

I have a menu for a website in flash where, an mc moves up and down and shoots...so that when the projectile MC hits a button, it clicks it.

1.) How do I make it so that the MC follows the mouse (like a custom cursor)..but is restricted to only going vertically

2.) how would you make it so that the mc can shoot anywhere....but when the fired MC hits a button, it acts as if it was clicked? My AS knowledge...is..very basic...so if you have any free time could you explain the codes?...so that I can learn from this...rather then just stealing your codes... but..if you want to just let me copy and paste...thats cool too

ActionScript 3.0 :: Making An Enemy Follow The Player?

May 27, 2010

I've been working on a game for my AS3 class that involves enemies randomly spawning from all direction and following the player in an attempt to collide with him. I can get the enemies to spawn from one direction as well as move in a single direction but I can't get the spawning from all sides or the following the player around to work.

I've been at this for a couple of weeks now and followed several suggestions and tutorials (including one from here) with no success and this thing is due by tonight . Here's the code from my enemy class. All of the code of the game is done through AS files with no coding done within movie clips or on the timeline.

import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Stage;
import flash.events.Event;

ActionScript 2.0 :: Good Method For Making Movie Clip Follow A Curve?

May 1, 2006

I'm working on a game where you have a car that will drive along a side-scrolling terrain, and it needs to folllow the hills up and down and rotate accordingly. Because the front wheel and back wheel will need to be at different heights as the car moves, I'm wondering what the best way to make it rotate correctly is?

The height detection works, and the car will follow the hills but that's just using one point on the car movie clip to test with - it needs to use the front and back of the car.
