I have a problem with rotating and moving my map. I need to spawn buildins along the road and move them. Check the picture. What I want to do is have my player in the middle and rotate the map randomly while the buildings are sliding along the road.

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 am in the midst of finishing up a design application where you can upload images and colors. I use the greensock transform manager. I am taking anything a user does and recording it so I can recreate what they made on larger scale behind the scenes (to be exported for printing purposes)
The problem I am running into is with rotation and moving x and y values. The transform manager does everything relative to a center point, but when i recreate the image object the registration point is at the top left. I have found how to rotate around the center of the object using the transform matrix, but I can't seem to move the x and y correctly because these values change when you rotate. I want to just move the image to the left or right relative to the center. How could I go about doing this.
Here is how I rotate.
private function rotateAroundCenter (ob:*, angleDegrees:Number, ptRotationPoint:Point) {
var m:Matrix=ob.transform.matrix;
m.tx -= ptRotationPoint.x;

There are a couple of problems i'm having with this - the first is how to work out how to find where the tip of each sine curve is (ie the frequency) and the second is to work out how to rotate each object so that it slides sideways along the sine wave(note file is 800 x 600)here's my code: CarouselTest.as:
package
{
import com.greensock.easing.Sine;

I have a rotating menu that sets the selected button to the 3:00 position once clicked. I need the labels for the buttons to stay in the upright position as they rotate with the button. I have attached an image. Anyone know of an action script that would keep the labels upright?
View 8 Repliesim currently making an "AS3 beat em up" ala streets of rage or double dragon.Currently i have my character moving and a few animations done and i am trying to figure out how to make attacks work.I have some "basic" animation for his attack, but im not sure how to get it to work correctley.What happens is, if you press control (the attack button) whilst the character is walking he just keeps moving and is stopped on the attack frame.I want the character to stop moving if the attack is pressed and once it is released start moving again.

what i have is a tween on a movie clip of a popcorn kernel on one layer and a tween on a button on another layer to follow the movie clip. i want to be able to roll over the kernel and make it "pop". i changed my over on the button to popped corn (this works) but i want it to stay popped for the rest of the tween.

would anyone beable to direct me to a tutorial on how to create a rotating circle menu that is driven by xml.
View 6 RepliesI 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 have a rotating dial coded in AS3 but I cannot get it to follow with the mouse - It works the way I want it to if I grab opposite to the pointer (so 90 to 180 degrees from the pointer) to rotate the dial. The problem is that I am using the rotation degrees to set a value only in positive numbers ranging from 0 to 240 instead of 0 to 360. If I change the standard rotation code so it tracks with the mouse, it reveals angles -180 to +180 which would screw up the number conversion to positive 0 to 240. I am thinking if I have to change "var r", then "var tr" needs changing to get it back.
View 4 Replieshow i could make the transition from my last photo to the first photo a more correct transition. maybe my explanation was difficult to understand?? take a look at these two sites(owendawsonphotography.com / owendawsonpga.com) and look at the rotating slide show. when the last image fades out it goes to complete white and the first image comes in at full opacity. I want it to look like the other transitions in the slideshow.

I am a complete and utter newbie when it comes to flash. I've bought Flash Professional CS5, and I am looking for a tutorial/help to create a rotating banner ad similar to the one on [url]...
Example: I've got four different pictures I want to rotate within let's say 3-4 seconds per picture. Each of the picture needs its own link, so people can click to get to the correct place. I want the pictures to "fade out to the left" when changing)
I have a MC that i am moving on to the stage that i want to look as if it rolls in to position. I cant find any referance on how to do this. my code so far is:
//Pic1
PicHolder1.x = 1800;
PicHolder1.y = 322.4;
Tweener.addTween(PicHolder1, {x:161.2,y:322.4, time:1, transition:"linear"});
this gets the motion across but how do i roll it then stop at the end position?
Background info: I am using ActionScript 2.0 and Flash CS5I was working on a game and I used photoshop to save a little gif image. I imported it into flash, "broke it apart", turned it into a movie clip, and put this bit of code on it. It rotates the image when the mouse is moved around it.
Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
// find x and y differences

I am trying to rotate a button in my program that has a large hit box. Obviously, when I do this, the hit box is also rotated and is now in the wrong place. Is it possible to get this hit box to remain static, or to just keep it there?
var turnButton:Tween=new Tween
(sections.lower, 'rotation', Strong.easeOut, 0, 180, 3, true)
is it possible to rotate an object so that it always faces another object that is able to move around the screen? as in track it on the y and x axis?

View 3 Repliesconcept I can't wrap my mind around.If you've been the the sitehe has a "picture map"I've seen this used at other sites too.But what the rotation. The pictures always rotate around the point you click on.I just don't get it. I understand the momentum and all for the swing though
View 1 RepliesI'm about to do a menu-system for a pretty wicked site. Not that this menu-system is wicked it's just that I don't get smarter in how to do this. I have searched the net without finding anything similar (but I guess this is pretty simple).I've got an image (from a synthesizer), seen above. My vision is that the center-controlling-device is rotating to a specific spot when clicked (ex: Clicking the "4" will make the center-device rotate so that it points at it).
