ActionScript 3.0 :: Make An Object To Follow A Specific Path?
May 2, 2010
make my hero go back to his shelter when he finds some food or when he approaches an enemy. It looks like this:
1. The hero is in the shelter.
2. The hero is hungry.
3. The hero leaves the base to hunt some animals down.
4. The hero is full and is headed back to the shelter.
5. He moves in the direction of where the base is.
So, once again, how do I make my hero go back to where he came from? How do I make my hero's x and y position to fit the way back home?

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.

how to make a simple ball follow an oval motion path? Think of a molecule spinning (and looping) around a nucleus. This was five seconds work in previous versions where you could draw the motion guide then simply attach an object to it and say "orient to path" but I can't seem to find how to do it in CS4.

As the topic indicates, i'm trying to create a curved path and make a movieclip follow that path up and down with a bit of rotation.
This could easily be done animating the timeline, however I need this to be done through pure AS - as when I mouseOver the MC, the MC need to stop and go to the top. [url]...

So I've created a script where a mc is clicked on and the player can draw a path using the mouse. I'm trying to figure out how I can get the mc to follow the path drawn out by the player's mouse and when the player clicks again, it erases all of the path.my code is below
Code:
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;[code].....

How can I make an object following my cursor ( but not directly) through a specific path (something like a city plan) and every time my cursor change location the object would change path so it will stop where my cursor is?

I am making my second flash game, I am still very much a beginner. This time i am trying to make a platformer in the style of fancy pants adventure. To do this i obviously need to make the camera follow my character. The problem is; i simply don't know how. I have yet to find a CS5 compatible solution with my less than good google skills, and so here I am.

I am working on a circular gallery 6 images/movie clips and two buttons. I would like to have these images move around a circular path, clockwise when the right button is hit and counter clockwise when the left one is hit. I am just learning action script so my understanding of it is extremely basic. I don't necessarily need all the code just conceptualize how this would be done. I don't want to use the time line (if that's not possible just let me know).The only things I can think of would be to have the images move on a path or painfully swap out the buttons for new ones that look exactly the same but move different clips for each scenario.

I can't seem to figure out how to accomplish a fairly simple task: I have a simple graphic and I'd like to apply an "orbiting" effect to it - so that the graphic moves in a circle around an arbitrary point (without rotating around its own center).[code]...

Right, so here's the scenario: I have 4 objects, A, B, C and D. What I want is that C obscures A, but not B. Similarly, I want D to obscure B, but not A. A and B can overlap each other in any order, it doesn't matter.In other words, what I want is an object (C) to be able to cover one object (A) but not another (B), even if it comes into contact with it.Same with D, which can cover B but not A, even if it comes into contact with it. The problem is that I can't think of a layer configuration that allows this: D will always be higher than both A and B, and thus will obscure both.I'm not expecting anyone to come up with some unfathomably clever configuration, but I'm wondering if there's some kind of ActionScript that can do this. In particular, I would like A and B to be dynamic TextFields, and C and D to be MovieClips of any shape (i.e. not a rectangle).

I was wondering if it possible to write up some AS that will take line paths that you have drawn and convert them into a Path object? For example say you drew a jagged line from left to write, would there be a way to have AS convert that into a Path object.

What I want is a hint how to make a specific thing happen while clicking a specific button. Like "if I click button 1, do this". Would like to use this script though I'm gonna add buttons over time and this is an easy way to have the functionality working.
Here's the code:
Attach Code
function hitButton(btn) {
btn.onRollOver = function() {
this.colorTo (0xC4006A);
[Code]....

I need to implement a drag and drop functionality, where I can define and constraint the route of the draggable object.[URL].. only that i have the paths designed and not calculated by a math function. So, in fact, as mouse moves I need to tell the object to follow the custom path/movieclip.

I've been searching for a while but was unable to find an answer for my problem. In my document I have two objects -- one that is moving when using the keyboard arrows while the other one has to follow the first one and try to hit it. How do I make the second object approach the first one?

I am using CS3 and trying to get an object to follow the mouse and having a hard time finding a tutorial on this, because all of the ones i have found want me to add the actionscript to the MC, and my version of flash won't let me do that. Flash expects me to attach it to the frame and so the code doesn't work.

...without using the startDrag method. I know I can use code like this inside of a mouse event listener/function:
Code:
objectMC.x=mouseX;
objectMC.y=mouseY;
This code makes the object move with the mouse, but only if I move the mouse very slowly. When I move the mouse quickly, the mouse leaves the area of the object and thus the MOUSE_OVER listener stops listening, causing the object to stop.

When I click on the button, it should bring me to a specific location which is inside the MovieClip, and that works. However, from inside that MC, I want to click on the same button, it should bring me on the main time line. How to do that? I am making of a variable (boolean) here. Is there something wrong in my code? (see path.fla)
(b) How do I remove a movie clip? (see path2.fla) When I clik on the square_btn, it brings me to a location inside that movie clip where there is an oval button. When I reach that oval button, I want the square_btn to me temporarily removed on that page.

I'm trying to trace the path of an object by using setPixel on the object's position every frame in a BitmapData/Bitmap pairing. These pixels aren't showing up normally and I suspect I have a fundamental misunderstanding of the BitmapData class. Here's what I'm doing:
public var contrailBase:BitmapData;
public var contrail:Bitmap;
private var contrailColor:uint;[code].....
Using this code, the red pixels don't show up. If I initialize contrailBase to 0xFF000000 instead then I get a black screen on which the red pixels DO draw, but I need the bitmap to be transparent except for the contrail. What am I doing wrong?

I have this kind of menu structure design (see image attached), and the way It needs to work is when the mouse goes close to a topic it follows it and when the mouse is a certain distance away it springs back to its orginal place?

basically im trying to set a bitmap to follow an object i have.heres some code...
Code:
override public function paint():void{
super.paint();
if(imageLoaded=false){
trace("loading image...");
[code].....
all the stuff in the loadImage() used to be where loadImage is called and it would run but would draw the image over and over leaving a trail so i moved it so it would only draw once but now it wont even work, tells me "Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference." which reffers to "mBit.x = super.px;".
