ActionScript 3.0 :: Get The Distance Between 2 3D Objects By Using Distance Method
Apr 28, 2011In AS3 I am trying to get the distance between 2 3D objects by using distance method.

>>You can use it directly as a method of the Vector3D class to get the Euclidean distance between two three-dimensional points.
Which point does this method pick? Is it the closest point to the other object ?
I am just thinking of how much time this would take in testing objects with large poly count.
ActionScript 2.0 :: Determine The Distance Between MovieClip
Dec 27, 2011I am trying to create a scenario where I can have two or more movie clips interact with each other to determine the distance between themselves. I found a script online where it does two movieclips however I need it to do more than two, possibly up to about a dozen. That is the first part. The second part is that I need to be able to select one movieclip and for it to become the "master" and then the other clip determine there distance from the "master". I hope I am explaining this correctly. I have attached the fla file which has the script in it for two movieclips, and then I have modified to add the other clips but not sure of the coding to make it work.

Oct 28, 2009I'm trying to get the distance between two objects. Problem is that both objects are -45º rotated but one of them moves up and down with stage resize. So the distance gets a random degree. I've attached an image so that it could be simpler to understand my problem.

Jun 18, 2009i am trying to develop a simple car game, and to do that i have to maintain the distance between the two wheels. for the collision detection i have used coreyoneil class, which i think is excellent. i cant get the distances to go smoothly. and basically i am finding it hard to get the physics to work.
p.s. i tried to upload the files here and got an error each time, anyone know why that is?
Quickly Duplicate Objects At Fixed Distance Apart?
Oct 10, 2011Is there a way to duplicate objects, like lines across the screen quickly without using AS3 at a fixed distance apart? I tried using Ctrl+D but it has a distance for 7 pxl apart. I want to change that to 1 pixel. Is there a way to change this setting or a tool in flash IDE to perform duplicating quickly?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Spawning Objects To Stage And Move Certain Distance
May 18, 2011Here is my code:
function createEnemy(event:TimerEvent):void {
var enemyAppear = new MovieClip;
enemyAppear = new Enemy();
enemyAppear.x = Math.random()*stage.stageWidth;
enemyAppear.y = 285;

What I am trying to do is spawn a enemy to stage and when it appears on the stage I would like it to move across the stage a certain distance.
Visual Example:
O = enemy, X = original position, Y = new position
O (Spawns @ Location X) X ---------------------------------------------------------> Y
( Moved from location X to Location Y)

I then got the distance equals to 131. When I draw AC and B, it appears B is almost on the line (distance <= 1). Am i doing wrong? what does 131 mean?

IDE :: Dynamic 3D Distance Calculation?
Jan 14, 2009Is there a way to calculate the distance between the origin of a movieClip at, say, (x:500, y:0, z:0) and one at, (x:500, y:0, z:50)?? And lets say the vanishing point is (0,0) and the perspective angle is 50.
I know that the eq for finding the distance between two points in 3D space is:
d = ((x1-x2)^2 +(y1-y2)^2+(z1-z2)^2)^(1/2)
the problem is I dont know x2 (the x value of MC2 (the one set at z = 50)).

ActionScript 3.0 :: Getting The Distance Between Two Movieclips' X Value?
Aug 8, 2010At first it seemed simple to find out the distance between two movieclips' x values, I could have just done:
Code:
mc1.x - mc2.x
However, What I'm trying to achieve is a movieclip of a person climbing an un-even surfaced wall, and to do this I first want to make sure the x value of the person is always equal to the edge of the wall.
How would I calculate the exact position of wall's edge where the person is touching it? I've attached an image to show what I mean.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Percent Based On Distance?
Aug 7, 2010I have a vertical list of movieclips added to the stage all spaced out evenly from top to bottom based of the last movieclips position. I also have defined a center Y point which I would like to find out the percentage of each clip away from that center point. The reason for this number is to scale everything from the center point which is scale 1 then they next item from the center would scale to a percentage from the center point. each clips scaling percentage would be based off of how far they are from the center point in each direction. Keeping in mind the center point is always scale to 1. I also want to make sure my scale never goes below 0.3 so the range has to be between 0.3 and 1 my centerY is also not half the height of the content but a number I decide. AS it the content might be 1000 in height but the center point could be set to 300.

Tweening Over Distance Not To Specific Point
Oct 27, 2009I've scanned through the forums, but can't seem to find an answer to my question. I'm trying to move (tween) a movie clip 800 pixels along the x axis (horizontally) when a every time button is clicked. I don't want to move the movie clip to the 800 "x" pixel mark. Yet, I can't seem to move the clip an additional 800 pixels whenever the button is pressed again - it keeps starting from the original spot. I am new to ActionScript...
My code is below:
btnBottom1.addEventListener
(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, playHandler);
function playHandler(evt:MouseEvent):void {
import fl.transitions.Tween
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
var twTeen:Tween = new Tween(mcbottomFlap1, 'x', Elastic.easeOut, mcbottomFlap1.x, +800, 3, true);
}
ActionScript 3.0 :: Calculating The Distance Between Two Images?
Dec 9, 2011I'm trying to calculate the distance between two images (A and F - there are other images between A and F) but I can't seem to figure out how to do it the right way. The image A.x is "(stage/2) - (A.width/2)" and image F.x is "E.x - imgSpace" which is a negative value (all the images x is of negative value to image A.x). In my oppinion the calculation is F.x - A.x and although it might be right I still ned the value to be non-negative.

View 2 RepliesFlash :: Calculating Distance Just From Speed?
Jun 17, 2011I'm creating a drag based control in Flex / Flash, similar to a film strip, where an individual can swipe horizontally to scroll through the items. To make the control feel a bit more natural I've added some inertia to slow the scrolling once a swipe has taken place. When first loaded up there will be five items in view with 'x' numbers of items to scroll through with the 3rd item centred and selected.
My problem though is that I want, when animating, a swipe gesture to determine whether an item will end up the middle (3rd position) and adjust its movement calculation accordingly so it docks with the 3rd / centre position. Imagine you perform a long swipe, it flys pasts 'x' amount of items, but as it slows to a stop it elegantly stops with an item centred / in the 3rd position. To do this I believe I need to determine the distance to travel just from the speed value (as time is irrelevent to the user experience, i.e. a longer / stronger swipe would justify a longer animation skimming through the items).
At the moment I'm invoking the animation routine (with inertia) in the ENTER_FRAME event when the user generates a MOUSE_UP event. When they do this, I obtain the speed of drag (by monitoring this beforehand) and then decrement this speed value on each call of the ENTER_FRAME event until it reaches an appropriate value to stop the animation.
Unfortunately all the speed calculations I've seen deal with Speed and Time to determine distance, I just need Speed. Admittedly, my knowledge isn't strong in this area so I might be missing the obvious.
Flash :: AS3: Find Distance Of Rotation
Sep 20, 2011I am rotating an object with TweenLite, however instead of a set duration I want the duration to be based upon the distance of rotation where 180 degrees = 3 seconds 90 = 1.5 and so on. Here is my attempt to find the distance of rotation:
var time:Number = Math.abs(Math.atan2(Math.sin(angle-wheelObj.rotation),Math.cos(angle-wheelObj.rotation));
TweenLite.to(wheelObj, time, {shortRotation:{rotation:angle}, ease:Expo.easeOut, onComplete:rotateWheel, onCompleteParams:[target]});
TweenLite.to(carObj, time, {shortRotation:{rotation:angle}, ease:Expo.easeOut});
This just isn't working, time is sometimes huge when the rotation is small and sometimes tiny when it is big, so does anyone know a better way to do this?
