ActionScript 2.0 :: Any Way To Find Vector With One Point / Angle
Apr 13, 2006I am looking for a way to find a vector if I know one point and 1 angle. Like I have A(x, y) and a vector starting from A(x, y) with an angle. I would like to know the position on a point X (x, y) that can be anywhere on that vector. I only know the coordinates of A and the angle. Possible?? I guess it has to be a function...

Jan 16, 2012I wish to have a function that will take as input a radius value and a magnitude value.
It will return firstly a point (x,y) and also secondly a direction, (vx,vy) which will have a certain magnitude(speed).
The point returned will be a random point within the radius value and the direction will be a a (vx,xy) that moves the point perpendicular to the line segment (x,y) ->(centrepoint).

Apr 29, 2011What I've done so far is using your mouse you (click & release) you shoot a ball off in that direction using radians. Now what I'd like to happen is when the ball hits the wall it bounces off in it's reflection angle. Eg. if the ball hits the right-hand-side wall travelling at in a radians of -0.65 it should bounce back in the radians of about -2.5

Jan 21, 2011How can we find out a moving movie clip's angle. I'm trying to make a shooting game in as3, I need to know the angle of the movieclip(bullet) when it gets hits on the wall. i.e., I have a movieclip named "ball", and which is moving with some speed and the coordinates are initially created by the gun's positions.
Code:
var angle:Number = gun.rotation - 1;
var bubbleX:Number = gun.x-130* Math.cos(angle * Math.PI / 180);
var bubbleY:Number = gun.y-130 * Math.sin(angle * Math.PI / 180);
var ball:MovingBall = new MovingBall();
ball.x = bubbleX;
I need to know, what is the angle of "ball" after it hitting the boundary areas..
Actionscript 3 :: Trigonometry - Radius Out To The Outer Concentric Circle And Calculate The Position Of That Outer Point?
May 29, 2011I've got two concentric circles with their centers at (centerX,centerY). The inner circle has a radius of 100 and the outer circle has a radius of 400. If take a point on the circumference of the inner circle, I can draw a line from the center to that point. Let's call that point x1,y1). I now want to continue that radius out to the outer concentric circle and calculate the position of that outer point (x2,y2).
I'm adding a 3px 'dot' just to show where x1, y1 is on the screen. (Subquestion: I can't see it...not sure why.)This is what I'm trying:
var x1:Number = 100;
var y1:Number = 50;
var x2:Number;[code].............
ActionScript 3.0 :: Rotating A Circular Set Of Links To A Specified Point/Angle?
Jan 27, 2010I have a set of links (movie clips) arranged in a circle. When one of the links is clicked, I would like the circle of links to rotate until the selected link is in a certain position - straight down (90 degrees) in this case - and the others to maintain their positions relative to the clicked link (ie: they all move, but the distance between them is maintained). The behavior is intended to be like a bullet rotating into a chamber on a revolver, or - more accurately - like that of a Ferris Wheel. [URL] Here is my mangled version of the AS from the site linked above:
ActionScript Code:
// setting variables
var centerX = Stage.width/2; // Stage Center X
var centerY = Stage.height/2; // Stage Center Y

ActionScript 3.0 :: Rotating Around Matrix Point To Specific Angle
Mar 5, 2010I have a slider which I want to use to rotate an image around it's center. This normally is easy but my problem is the clip is made dynamically and the size changes so I can't use the default registration point and I need to assign the center point before I rotate it. I found the rotateAroundExternalPoint function which rotates around a center point fine. How to get it to rotate to a certain angle and then have it stop at that angle. The rotateAroundExternalPoint increments the rotation rather then allowing me to set the angle to rotate to. Is there anyway that I can set what angle to rotate my clip to? It right now increments the rotation by the x coordinate of my slider bar (slider_position.x).
Code:
import flash.geom.Matrix;
import fl.motion.*;
var mat:Matrix = clip.transform.matrix;
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,EnterFrame3);
function EnterFrame3(event:Event) {
var center_point_x = clip.height / 2
var center_point_y = clip.width / 2 //
MatrixTransformer.rotateAroundExternalPoint(mat,center_point_x,center_point_y,slider_position.x);
clip.transform.matrix = mat;
}
ActionScript 3.0 :: Find Slope / Angle Of A Drawn Line?

View 9 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Atan2 Outputs The Following Angle Scheme - Assuming The Point Relative To Which The Math Is Done Is In The Center Of The Circle
Sep 16, 2011So let's begin. I want to build a wheel which you can spin, similar to a roulette wheel. You can do this both ways (CW and CCW, this issue causing the bug, actually). The wheel has some acceleration to it too, and I achieve this by measuring the start and final angle of the drag movement, using Math.atan2(dy, dx). The problem is the following: atan2 outputs the following angle scheme, assuming the point relative to which the math is done is in the center of the circle.
atan2 returns a value measured in radians, so I'm using the classic angle*180/Math.PI formula. I've changed this original scheme into the following, using some simple math to shift the angles a bit, to resemble more accurate circle angles (going up to 360 degrees) The problem that I'm facing at the moment is should the user decide he wants to swipe clockwise, and moves through the right point, where 0 turns into 360 or 180 turns into -180, the whole angle difference thing is capsized. It registers a CCW movement (as if the user swiped his mouse all around the circle). So, I'm looking for some ideas as to how I can work around this small issue.
Android :: Calculating An Angle Using The Law Of Cosines, Given 2 Points And Calculating 1 Point?
Dec 27, 2011I am developing a game for mobile in AIR (as3). I have created some bots for this game that initially just wander around. But when a bonus enters the stage, they have to move to the bonus.The detection of a new bonus and moving of the bots works fine, but there is something wrong with the manipulation when a new bonus enters the stage.Basically, this is how it works (or I try to make it work):My bot moves along with his rotation as a parameter. (works fine)
private function moveToNextLocation():void
{
var angle:Number = _rotation * 0.0174532925; // 1 degree = 0.0174532925 radians
var speedX:Number = Math.sin(angle) * _speed;

Actionscript 3 :: Find A Path From Point A To B In X Steps?
Nov 18, 2011I am currently looking at a way of visualising data and a part of the algorithm needs something 99% the same as A* Path Finding but I cannot wrap my head round it fully. I know it will be a fairly simple modification. (specific cost instead of least cost)
Basically I need to plot a path (2D Grid, no Diagonals) from point A to point B in X number of steps.
E.g. If the start and end points were right next to each other and I needed the path to be 3 steps it would have a tiny loop. (moves: up, right, down). Is there a known name for this algorithm or is the use of this so rare it's uncommon? I am currently looking at this AS3 Librbay for modification as it is apparently very fast and seems clean and simple to me:[URL]..
ActionScript 3.0 :: Find Most Left And Top Right Point In A Sprite?
Aug 8, 2009I once needed to pan a sprite full of movieClips (picture 1) which were draggable with no bounds so you could drag them up and left (higher than sprites registration point).
You could also drag them down and right and expand a sprite that way (as well) but that didnt matter.What did matter was how much is 'up' and 'left' from the sprite registration point so i can include that in my formula for panning.
This was easy to find, i just sorted my array of movieClips, sorted on x and sorted on y after each drag, and thats how i got my up and left points.
Now I am trying to do that same thing, exept my movieclips inside a sprite have a custom rotation (picture 2), so i also have an up and left point, except this time up and left are caused by rotations of movieClips inside a sprite... (and these are dragable as well with no bounds)
ActionScript 3.0 :: Find X Position Of A Point On A Line?
Aug 22, 2009To make this easy, lets say I have a movie clip with a diagonal line in it (top left to bottom right).
I want to start my y position at 0, and place it in a loop and increase y by 5 every time. So we start at the top left of the clip, and move to the bottom of the clip.
Now since we have our y value (0, 5, 10, etc.) would you get the x position of the line? such as (x, y):
5, 10
or
42, 15

ActionScript 3.0 :: Find Highest Point Of A Group Of Boxes?
Mar 31, 2009I have a number of boxes on screen - each box is a rectangular movieclip, and they fall to the bottom of the screen where they pile up to make a stack of boxes. I'm using box2d for the physics. Oh, and each box may be rotated. I need to find the highest point - ie the smallest y value, of the stack of boxes.
Obviously I can find the position of the highest box's registration point easily (which is the centre of each box) - but that may not be the highest point of the pile of boxes. The highest point may not even be the highest box - it could be a lower box that is rotated on end, for example.

do i need to handle this on my own ? for eg: in the TOUCH_BEGIN event handler i could see how many different unique touchPointID i have received and update the count myself.
