I am trying to code some circles to move around inside one another. I have managed to do the hit test bit, but its getting them to stop at the edge inside one another is what I am having problem with. The aim is so the user can drag the red circle and the yellow stays where it is within the red, but when you drag the yellow circle the red moves with it.
View 2 Replieshow to randomly animate circles moving around inside a bigger circles? the small circles will have a collision effect on each other and on rollover of each individual circle, the name of it will come out in the bottom.. so the big circle will act as a wall preventing them from coming out..

I tried to modify the code of this tutorial a bit to have words appear inside the circles (like "Home", "About", etc....) like what I've typed in the line in the screenschot -

It seems that I can do that since it's an array... But inspite of what I believe are the appropriate changes I've done, an error showed up still.Before I forget, in what section of the code must I insert a line that will make a clicked button display the info corresponding to it? (that is, if I click on the "Contact" or any of the buttons a window will appear beneath the menu on the stage...)
anyone know of any tutorials or any codes on how to randomly animate circles moving around inside a bigger circles? the small circles will have a collision effect on each other and on rollover of each individual circle, the name of it will come out in the bottom.. so the big circle will act as a wall preventing them from coming out.. yeah, by the way i have attched the file so more or less u will understand wat im saying.
View 1 RepliesI'm working on a thing where I use drag n drop. So far so good, but when the mc's is dropped on the drop target (which is also a mc) I want them to get inside that mc in some way. This is because I need to be able to move the droptarget_mc and the dropped mc's together with it!
View 3 RepliesExcuse the title, had no idea what to call this. I'm creating a simple game with the following components (added picture for clarity):
[URL]
1. Character - The symbol in the center of the stage.
2. Level - The bounds surrounding the stage. Everything in this picture is contained within the level except for the character.
3. Water - The blue square. The water symbol is located within the level symbol.
4. Water droplet - The blue dot floating above the water. This is also located within the level symbol.
Using the arrow keys the player controls the movement of the level. While the character symbol is always located at x=275, y=200 (center stage), the level symbol's coordinates change whenever the arrows are pressed. This gives the player the illusion that they are controlling the character.
When the player makes the character symbol touch the water symbol, I want to move the water droplet to the location of the character. The problem is, I can't for the life of me figure out the coordinates I need as they will always be different depending on where the character touched the water. It's important that the water droplet be inside of the level symbol because after the player drops the water I need it to act as if it's moving with the surroundings.
tl;dr: I essentially need to find the x and y distance from the character symbol to the origin of the level symbol, keeping in mind that the level symbol's location is always changing and that both symbols are located on the stage.
I have a circle drawn on the screen, wherein I add a moving object. I want it to keep inside. My strategy is to calculate the circle's radius and compare it with the distance the moving object is off its center. I beleive it's the proper solution. However, I'm having a problem with letting Flash know when the running guy should stop, so he doesn't leave the circle and ruin all the fun. Here's the code I'm using (it's not working of course):
function moveTheCreaturesRightwards(event:Event)
{
if(maleMovingRight == true)
{
[Code]....
The line: rayMale.width = maleRadius.width; was added when nothing else had seemed to be working
In my attached fla, you'll see a movieclip with a panel that rolls out upon rollover (or on click, whatever I can get to work) to reveal a panel containing buttons. However- I cannot get the buttons in this movieclip to work. I'd also like to put a text scrollbar on a copy of this movieclip (no luck so far for the same issue), but perhaps resolving the button issue will also clear the way for a working scroller

Lets say I make an physical border for the element. A "box" 200x100 and this box is centered. How do I keep my random moved element inside this "box" or frame you may call it.
I am having difficulty with getting the playhead to move inside a movieclip based on the horizontal or vertical position of the mouse on the screen. I can get the horizontal motion to move the playhead, but I can't get the vertical movement to do the same. I have attached the document class .as file for it.
View 2 Repliesi have a BasicMap.as that takes an Array and populates itself with the MC objects passed to it by a String reference.it inherits from Sprite, and so it just places the objects on its self.then i have a class that inherits from that class, and gives a little more functionality to it, but in order for it to do that, it needs to place the objects not on itself, but instead inside a holder Sprite, so here is my problem:

I want to use semi transparent circles to show the intensity of the effect by altering the radius of the circle and animate it while placing them. for example it appears as a dot and then grows to the intended size in fraction of a sec.
I could see some functions in javascript API but not in Flex. Saw some examples that uses polygon. But i dont want to plot all 360 points for just one circle.
import flash.display.Sprite;
var bin:Sprite = new Sprite();
var cir:Sprite = new Sprite();
cir.graphics.beginFill(0x00ff00,1);
cir.graphics.drawCircle(0,0,30);
cir.graphics.endFill();
bin.graphics.beginFill(0xff0000,1);
bin.graphics.drawRoundRect(40,40,100,100,5,5);
bin.graphics.endFill();
addChild(bin);
bin.addChild(cir);
Here why do the circle added outside the square box?
I can make images transparrent and tween etc. I want to create an animation (like this one), if someone can please help put me in the correct direction? I am not sure how to get the circles animated to get the next image to display.
View 2 RepliesThe issue I am having is how to tackle forming a logo using circles. I have done one letter manually, however it would take forever to do this with every single letter, and so I am asking here if anyone knew of a faster method. Requirements:
- Has to fill non-circular letters(i.e. does not have to be precise, but look like it has edges)
- Circles have to animate in, therefore they need to have drop shadow and seem like they are landing in place
I've got the code for circle on an image (mask). I've got it in my first frame and I need do something else in 2nd frame but after the movie in 1st frame is finished.
Code:
//This container contains all the circles that act as a mask for the picture
var container:Sprite = new Sprite();
//Assign the container to be the image's mask
picture.mask = container;
//Add the container to the stage
addChild (container);

This timer is responsible for creating a circle every 0.05 seconds. A total of 20 circles will be created.

var timer = new Timer(50,20);
timer.addEventListener (TimerEvent.TIMER, createMaskBall);
timer.start ();
//The timer calls this function every 0.05 seconds

I have been working on a drawing "game" in my spare time (which is limited). This is probably a common question, if so I appologize. By the way, I do not have the code here, it is on my other computer. Anyway, I was using the lineTo method and a timer listener to fire the addition of each new line segment, if that makes sense. The problem is that when you try to draw an arc quickly, it looks terrible. It draws straight lines. I tried adjusting the timer, which helps a bit but still not great. I looked at the curveTo but could not figure out a logical way to get the achor coordinates. I did some research online and found some that use addChild with bitmaps. I would rather use lines. Has anyone tackled this before?
View 3 RepliesI am looking for a way to draw circles using the mouse using the lineTo method, but need a way to find when collision occurs between the line that you're drawing and the line that's already on the screen.
View 0 RepliesMy problem is I need to generate numbered circles ( from 1 to 100) and I need to make them click able. When I click the circles in order (i.e. 1, 2 , 3...etc) the clicked circle should change color or get disabled (to indicate it is clicked). I should not be able to click the next numbered circle until I press the previous numbered circle and there should be a counter to show how many correct circles are clicked.

"How do I get 2 circles to bounce off eachother correctly??". I am currently making an air hockey game. I have seen great physics explanations, and great swf's, but I can't seem to do it myself. I know how to get the puck to bounce off the walls, and that code is very stable/simple, but the hitter-against-puck collision is very elusive. Bit-101 has some great swf's on flashkit forums about the exact same thing I am looking for. I have heard of somebody on super samurai giving a great explanation. I have seen a physics student's explanation. It seems to be a lot of code involving the radii of the circles, and the only thing I really understand is this:
r1 = radius of puck | r2 = radius of hitter | d = distance between them
if r1+r2 > d, then they have collided.
Here is my puck-against-wall code:
onClipEvent (load) {
speed = 0;
dist = 0;
dx = 1;
dy = 1;
[Code] .....
So anyway, obviously that code is inside of the puck.

I'm currently working on a custom component which extends Canvas (let's call it SuperCanvas) ; it's basically a container that let you zoom & pan its contents. It would be too long to explain why, but I can't use scrollRect, so I was forced to declare a Canvas object (called innerCanvas)... inside my SuperCanvas (I know, not very nice =/) I would like to know if there's a proper way to "redirect" the creation of my component's children in this canvas.
