Actionscript 3 :: Constrain MovieClip Drag To A Circle?

Jun 28, 2011

I have a draggable slider that looks like this:

The blue bar has the instance name track and the pink dot has the instance name puck.

I need the puck to be constrained within the blue area at all times, and this is where my maths failings work against me! So far I have the puck moving along the x axis only like this:

private function init():void
{
zeroPoint = track.x + (track.width/2);
puck.x = zeroPoint-(puck.width/2);

[Code]....

ActionScript 2.0 :: Constrain Drag To Within Movieclip Boundaries?

Jun 29, 2010

I have a movieclip that is locking to mouse center when dragging it. I know how to set up the boundary code, though the movieclip images are different sizes, so didn't want to have to create a custom code such as:t.startDrag(true, 290, 85, 910, 390);for each movieclip.does anyone know how to constrain the draggable item to within the left, top, right, bottom boundaries inside of a movieclip?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Flash8 Use MC To Constrain Drag?

Feb 25, 2010

I have a MC called planPOPUP which is draggable and at the moment I am constraining where the MC can be dragged to by using the 4 co-ordinates method such as:

Code:
startDrag (_root.loadHERE.allImagesMC.planPOPUP, false, 116, 231, 913, 396);

Now would it be possible to, instead of using that method, place another MC around the edge of the stage, making a border, and then have some code so that whenever planPOPUP touches the border MC it cannot be dragged over it? Thus constraining it to within the borders of the stage?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Drag To Rotate Circle And Ring Independently?

Jun 5, 2005

I have this problem...no worries it is only about ActionScript! I have created two movieclips: one is called "sun_mc" (with a nice smile) and a ring of sunrays (short and long ones) called "ring_mc".the ring is situated around the sun.

The user clicks the sun and drags to rotate it.The user can click the ring to rotate that too.When the sun is rotating...the ring should not be...and vice versa.

I have three problems...

1) I can't get the two mc's to move independently 2) When rotating the mouse position always jumps to a certain point on the movieclip...not the point where you clicked it first 3) The ring is also rotating when the mouse is outside the ring...

What should I do?I tried to obscure a part of the ring_mc with some masking...That didn't work.Should I try hitTest? And how should I do that? That only works with squares doesn't it?

[Code]...

ActionScript 2.0 :: Calculate The Direction And Speed A Circle Has After Colliding With A Static (non-moving) Circle?

Mar 8, 2005

I'm developing a game atm, and I need some help on the mathematics/coding of colliding circles (and their change in x/y speed). What i need to know is how to calculate the direction and speed a circle has after colliding with a static (non-moving) circle. I know how to detect a collision between the two, but I'm not sure about the maths I need to give the circle the right speed and direction after the collision

If i do know how far away the two circle-points (in the middle of each) are to each other (in both x and y coords) would it be easy for me to find the new speed and direction of the large circle in the example above? I know that I somehow should use the angles to pretend the circle hits a flat "wall" (as it only hits one point), and then calculate the new speed/direction. My only problem is that I'm not sure how to decide the angle of this flat "wall" and how x and y speeds should change when colliding with a wall that is angled. Does anyone here have any insight, links or tips on how I can du this?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Circle Circle Frame Independant Collision Reaction?

Apr 10, 2010

Trying to do circle circle collisions via math which I'm really having trouble with. One circle (player) just moves from keyboard. The ball reacts to the player. All the code shown is in my players class and I passed in a reference to the ball.

On my enterframe I have:

Code:
var xmov1 = xSpeed;
var ymov1 = ySpeed;
var xmov2 = ballRef.xSpeed;
var ymov2 = ballRef.ySpeed;

[code]....

Perhaps I'll go with a box2d equivalent instead of trying out my own physics shenanigans.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Move Movieclip Around A Circle Using Point And Click?

May 5, 2011

It's the beginning of a Monkey Island / Grisworld The Goblin kind of ultra short and simple game. Actually this is the only think I have to figure out.

Actually it already works if you click the x where it's positioned on the screenshot, but it doesn't work other places. And yes I've tried everything, and I'm just nok smart enough to figure this out.

More precisely it's the alternative path, after the arrow collides with the circle, that's causing me problems - since it's going to find it's way to the point clicked on stage.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Duplicate MovieClip Method - Making New Circle

Code:
circle.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, makeNewCircle);
circle.buttonMode = true;
function makeNewCircle(event:MouseEvent):void {
var newCircle:myEmptyClip = new myEmptyClip();

ActionScript 3.0 :: Function To Make A MovieClip Circle Around Fixed Point

Feb 17, 2011

I posted a while back looking for a function to make one movieClip circle around a fixed point. The solution I was given (which has worked perfectly up until now) is:[code]This function is called repeatedly by a Timer (loopTimer) with delay 10.The problem I have hit now though, is that if I want to modify or reverse the speed of rotation at any point it causes a jump in position (because I am setting the x and y values directly, rather than incrementing them e.g. "x = ..." rather than "x += ..."). Can anyone see a way to modify this function so that I can just increment the x/y positions?

ActionScript 1/2 :: Drag A Text Movieclip Onto A Picture Of An Object Movieclip

Mar 26, 2010

I Have the drag and drop working where you drag a text movieclip onto a picture of an object movieclip but having some problems. I know its something to do with the hitTest function but when i drop the word "cow" onto the picture of a dog it actually says this is correct by displaying the word cow above the picture of the dog when instead it shouldnt allow me to drop the text onto the picture which doesnt match.

Basically i need to know how to seperate the drag hitTest function for the DogPic/DogText so that it has its own function to detect a hit. At the moment you can see in the below code I have 1 hittest fucntion detecting both collisions when they need seperate functions I tried making a seperate function for each but it didnt work

They are almost perfect but right at the top and bottom there is just a small portion which has sort of "flattened out"...
