ActionScript 3.0 :: Make A Moving Object Grip Onto And Spin Around Another Object?
Apr 13, 2011
Im working on a small project and it involves a guy which you move with the arrow keys. The arrow keys add to his x, y velocities and his position is updated accordingly. How can i get this man to grab onto an object and spin around it (like when you grab pole and letting your momentum swing you around) . I can make him grab the object but I dont know how to modify his x,y speeds to simulate the arc.

i use this to make an object spin in a circle
onClipEvent (load) {
this._rotation = 10;
_x = 260;
[Code].....
Now what i need to know is how can i make a sentence for example "welcome to blah blah blah blah" go around in a circle i already try using Dynamic text and wrap the word but only thing i get is the whole sentence just going around with out going around following each other.

Currently I'm trying to make a basic game (using AS 2) but I'm having trouble getting the basic physics to behave. I have a ball which is supposed to fall until it touches the ground. It can also be dragged around the screen by the cursor.I want the ball to fall only if it isn't being held, but for some reason the condition isn't working properly. No matter how I structure the condition, the ball still falls even when it's being held (in fact I can move it from side to side, it is still being held even though it's falling downward).I've tried putting this on the ball to make it fall conditionally:
Code:
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
if(hitTest(_root.ground1) == false){

I'm having a bit of a problem with this rotating object. It loops and never stops. I searched and found similar problems, but if I'm not mistaken most loops where done with tweens, unlike this one.
Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
i = getProperty(this,_rotation);
setProperty(this,_rotation,i + 7);
}
I basically want the planet to spin once, and then stop.

onClipEvent (load) {

I've just finished using this bit of simple code to get an object to move around randomly. What I want to do is try and get it to disapear or move off the stage after say a minute (with a countdown clock in the corner starting from a minute and counting down).

I am trying to do a apply a tween for the width property on a MovieClip Object but every time it changes the width and the position too, and I don't want that. I want to change the width going to one side without changing the x and y of the object.
I tried both of thes and they gave the same result.
var c:Tween = new Tween(left, "scaleX", Strong.easeOut, 1, 1.5,20,true);
var c:Tween = new Tween(left, "width", Strong.easeOut, 20, 200,20,true);
I think it is applying the transformation according to a center of the movie clip. but I don't know how it can be changed.

I am currently trying to create an app using flash AIR.I would like to find some more information on how to make an object snap to another ojbect then follow its path, eg. a person object is already on the stage, then drag an arrow to the object which snaps to it, then on play button it follows the arrow path. all in pure actionscript, no guide layers.

I'm still new to AS3, and I was wondering how to make an object point in the direction of another object and move towards it if they are a certain distance from one another. I haven't been able to find out how to do this from the Adobe devnet, so I thought I'd ask here.

The following is that long only because I gave examples of what I want to know, not because it is complex .I have three basic questions regarding AS 3.0 classes.
1. How can I make a class object interact with an object on stage?
For example, when I have a square (mc_Square) with class "square" attached to it and I want it to trace "Colliding!" and print the X and Y of the mc_Box on contact with an on-stage *hollow* box (mc_Box) that has no class attached to it.how to do it vice-versa would also be awesome .
2. How can I make a class object interact with the same class object? For example, when I have two squares (mc_Square) that both have the class "square" attached to it and when they collide, it prints the X and Y of both of them.
3. How can I make a class object interact with a different class object?
For example, when I have two squares mc_Square1 with class "square1 (that also has a variable Primary=true written in it)" and a mc_Square2 with class "square2"; When they collide, the one with Primary=true would be removed and it's X,Y position traced.

I recently posted a .swf inside a new window with javascript. everything works fine on a PC, the movie will load on a mac. You should be able to click and drag to "spin" the object within the movie (it cycles a series of photos to give a 360 view), but when on a mac the cursor changes but images are not cycling. i'm sure it could be a number of different things but I'm unsure where to start.

So I have this Photo class than handles loading a pic, and dispatches an event when the loading is done with:[code]which is simple and works, but now I'd like to make something more advanced. I'd like to dispatch the load ratio.So far I have extended the Event class, with my own EventRatio class, and I can put properties on that class. Which is cool, but I need something more dynamic than just sending a fixed value.So, what is the best way to connect the Loader object of the Photo object, with the EventRatio object?

I need some AS2 actionscript that I can place on a button to move it to the front on rollover. and move it to the back on rollout.I have two identical buttons on a layer in my timeline. When you roll over a button a larger text box appears ontop of it. The text box is the rollover state on the button, which is a button symbol. This works great in itself, but the problem is that the buttons are place close together and when one button gets rolled over and the text box encroaches on the other button's space. I always want the text box and button you are rolling over to appear in front of the other buttons that are on that layer. But that's not possible, since one button will be in front and one will be behind. Is there some AS2 actionscript that I can place on each of the buttons to move the button you roll over to the front?

I'm new to Flash and just started working on an animated short. In one of the sequences, I realized too late that an object was too far left in the frame and needed to be moved back. Is there a way to do that in all of the keyframes at once rather than doing it one at a time? The thing that needs to be moved is a .png file, not a symbol.

i'm trying to use actionscript so i can make an object move up and down the Y axis by inputing numbers into a textbox. However at the moment my object starts in the centre and then when i enter a number it only goes down, and im not too sure how i can use negative numbers to make it travel up the y axis. I was thinking of using the numbers -10 - 10 so -10 would go down and 10 go up. Here is my code
Actionscript Code:
// EXAMPLE WHERE TEXTBOX USED TO POSITION A BALL ON THE STAGEpackage { import flash.display.Sprite; import flash.display.Stage; import flash.text.*;

i'm trying to use code so if i type in -10 to 10 the object will move up or down the y axis. The code i'm using at the moment calculates how far to move it from the number inputed, then it removes te object and places it in the required position. However doing the removeChild technique messes up when having many on the stage. I was wondering if anyone knew a way of calculating the rating and then using it to move the object on the stage without removing it and adding it. Here is the code i'm using to move it. OR a way in which i can remove certain objects on the stage using remove child

I have a straight line that converges to a point which makes the line curve. I want an arrow to follow the converging line. Motion guides seem to only work with a defined non moving path. How can I get my arrow to follow the moving curving path?

im having trouble getting this rotation function down pat. i have a turret that should be rotating towards another moving object. it should find the shortest direction to rotate. basically what ive done is converted action script rotation from using -1 -> -179 to 180 -> 359. but now im having issues when the object it is tracking passes over the zero degree point. the turrent then rotates around the other way. here is the code. my mind is getting a little boggled. it is being passed the x difference between the objects, and the y difference

I have very little knowledge of ActionScript. I have a movie clip. I want it to move along the x-axis when i press down on a button(button or movie clip) I do not know what code to use as it needs to be Action Script 2. Is there a Tutorial or something that can accomplish this? I have found a tutorial that moves the object around when you press a button. I am trying to get the same effect when you click down on a button: [URL] UPDATE The button is called btn and the object that moves is mctransparent I have managed the folowing:
