ActionScript 3.0 :: Fluid Positioning - Align MovieClip To Middle Of Screen

IDE :: Rotating A MovieClip
May 12, 2010I have a circular diagram with approximately 8 icons around the outter part of the circle. These points are all buttons. When Clicked, I want the diagram and icons to animate round to the top point (360 or 0 degrees). Then, when another icon is clicked they will all move round so that one is at the top.It would be a great bonus to have a slick easing in motion too but not essential - just a 'nice to have'.I have looked over forums and responses and there is quite a bit of info on this but I'm finding it difficult to apply it to this particular project.

I want to use the circles as rotation handles.Now the code below works but it terribly, terribly slow.I've seen a couple of other examples of rotation using the mouse position, but I want the polygon to rotate via the handle; I think that means the angle of rotation needs to be updated each time the mouse moves.Is there a cleaner/more efficient way to do this?Also, this works only for one direction right now no matter the x/y direction you move the mouse.

Flex :: Rotating Movieclip Back To Square?
Jul 20, 2010I have a movieclip that I am using greensocks transformManager with so the user can rotate, skew, and scale the clip. This works fine, but I am trying to add a crop tool. If the image is rotated, when I send the image to the crop tool it measures the height of the image by the bounds of the rotated image, not the actual height of the image if it were square (re: not rotated).
So, what I tried to do what, after sending it to the crop tool, rotate it back to 0 before getting the bounds using this code:

I don't understand the math here. Shouldn't it just rotate 3rads in the positive direction to equal it out? How would I return it to 0;
Actionscript 3 :: Track A Point On Rotating MovieClip?
Feb 14, 2012I have a MovieClip, that is representing a character in my game. Id like to "create bullets" shooting out from the tip of my characters gun. Problem is that when my character turns around, also the point rotates around the MovieClips pivot.
Is it possible to anyhow easily track this point, so that I could dynamically create new objects at the same location.
I tried to add a new MC as a child to my character, with the initial position at the guntip. In some systems child-objects "follow" their parents around, but it didnt seem to work here.
Is there any other "native" way of doing this, or do I just have to have a Polar-coordinates representation of the point relative to character-MovieClips origin, and add the MC rotation to theta, so that I can calculate the X and Y coordinates?
ActionScript 2.0 :: Collision Detection Within Rotating MovieClip
Feb 15, 2007I am working on a snowboarding game, And have two points of collision detection on the board:
x-----xOne at the Front of the riders boardOne at the Back of the riders boardThese two points of collision are placed within the rider.movieClip, and not on the _root timeline, as the rider movieclip can rotate etc as it rides through different gradients of slopes. I have used a largely basic method to obtain the X,Y positions of each collision point, using the following method:
Code:
var backX:Number = _root.rider._x+_root.rider.backDetection._x;
var backY:Number = _root.rider._y+_root.rider.backDetection._y;
(The same for the frontX and frontY) As you can see, it simply adds the offset of the detection points positions from the riders x, y therefore when the rider movieclip is rotated during gameplay, the rotation is not accounted for and it still searches for collision in exactly the same positions.
I am using this for collision checking:
Code:
this.hitTest(backX, backY, true)
Which is placed on the ground movieclip (what the snowboarder is riding on). Any better way of doing such collision checking, or how to account for rotation? is localToGlobal() the answer?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Rotating MovieClip To Point At Mouse
Jul 4, 2007I am trying to make a line point to wherever the cursor is when I stumbled upon the Math.atan2(); function. It appeared that i would put
line.rotation = Math.atan2(1,1);
to get 45 degrees or pi/4, but I was wrong. It barely moved the movieclip at all. So what I'm trying to do is to get this movie clip to rotate along with the mouse so the line is always pointing at the cursor. Also, how would you get movieclip to move along the line created by the line of these two points?

Nov 30, 2011I have made a Car Game using Box2D [in Flash] and I have one remaining bug, which I cannot fix. I added graphics and put them on top of the Box2D body. Everything went as good as expected, but after X rotations the movie clips for the car-wheels, stop spinning. I do something like this wheelSprite.rotation = wheelBody.GetAngle() * 180 / Math.PI. I ran a separate program and I saw that, if you do X.rotation += variable and you increase the variable every frame, after ~30 000 (value of variable) the MovieClip stops rotating, so I reset it to 0 after ~28 000. What do I do? The wheelBody.GetAngle()

ActionScript 3.0 :: Custom Class Registration - Rotating At 0 - 0 Axis And Not At The Centre Of The MovieClip
Apr 3, 2009I posted a question regarding how to make a ladybug move around the screen and I managed to make a class that loaded a ladybug png then using a timer moves the bug around the screen...
but I have a huge problem...this has been bugging me all day and cannot find a solution...
The ladybug moves around the screen but rotates towards the moving direction before moving. The problem is that the ladybug is rotating at 0,0 axis and not at the centre of the movieClip. Is there a way to offset the registration point so that the ladybug rotates centred?
