Flash - Slowly Rotate An Object Towards Another Object?
Jan 27, 2010
I have an object that points in the direction of another object (i.e. it rotates to the direction that the second objects x and y coordinates are at) below is the code I use.
var distx = target.x - x;
var disty = target.y - y;
var angle:Number = Math.atan2(disty, distx);
[code]....
as you can see. Not only does it rotate towards the target object, but it also moves towards it too. When I play the movie, the object instantly points to the targeted object and moves towards it. I would like for it to slowly turn towards the object instead of instantly turning towards it.

I am making a small tool for making simple T-Shirts designs. Everything is perfect except that I don't manage to rotate an item the way I want. I am makeing everything from ActionScript. When I load an image on the design it is added to the stage. I have an object called "ImageView" that extends MovieClip. It has some properties and some methods (ex kill() that removes the object and all associated listeners). In this object I also add the image that is loaded from a location. When I click on the item another object "Transformer" is added on the stage. It surrounds the ImageView and adds some controls for rotating and scaling the image.
My problem is when I rotate the ImageView. It rotate according to (0,0) (obviously). What I want is to be able to rotate it according to the center of the ImageView. A solution is to set the picture inside the ImageView in such a way that (0,0) is the center of the picture. But I try to avoid this since it will cause some problems (that will requiere more coding) at "TextView" (a class that has text instead of an image).

I have a preloader using a mask, set to slowly reveal the target object from the bottom up as the movie loads. But there is something off with the code and I'm not a programmer.

I want to modify an object's x position slowly (e.g. 4 pixels per frame) from actionscript. How do I go about doing this? It would be simple if AS3 had Sleep() and DoEvents() functions - are there equivalents?

i know how to use the _rotation on a mc, but how can i let it rotate slowly
[AS]
onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
rnd = parseInt(Math.random() * 2);
if(rnd == 0) {[code].....
this way it only flips to another degree, but you can't see it go round...

I am working on a car game in flash where you see the car from a top view and you go straight ahead all the time on an endless road.
The game so far is built in the way that I have a image of a car that's the main car and the road is a image itself that keep switching with another image of the road and when you play it it looks like the car is moving very fast. But actually the car is not moving at all except for when you move it yourself by going right or left.
When turning right I do not want the car to simply move to the right, but I also want it to rotate a bit so it looks more realistic when turning.[code]...

I have a project I'm working on that requires a box to be rotated aropund an offset axis by dragging a button in one corner of the box. Most of the scripting for this works great, but there are a few things I can't work out. The box is limited to an up and down position (0 degrees and 90 degrees respectively). This is what I want to happen � when the user drags the box from the up position and releases somewhere between 10 and 80 degrees, the box continues down to the end down position on its own. If it begins on the down position and is released midway, it continues up. For some mathematical reason, my version likes to orient around 50 degrees.

I'm using CS3 with ActionScript 3.0. What I want is simple, and I've done some searching but nothing that can get me the right results.I'm going to post a link that does exactly what I want: http:[url]......This rotates the circular object around a center point in a way that you can distort the object yet is still remains turning in a circular motion. A simple motion tween rotating the image will only work if the object is perfectly round, so distorting the object to make it more straight or curved won't work with a simple tween. I want to do exactly what is happening here (with my own object), is there some AS3 behind the scenes here making this turn on a center point?

I have an object that I want to rotate in 3D (letter "Y"). I have some code that I gathered and edited a bit, but right now it rotates at the top left as it's anchor. I'm trying to get it to rotate at the "crux" of the Y (absolute center), so it basically rotates in place.
My second problem is the speed. Ideally it needs to rotate very fast then slow down and stop. Any thoughts on how to either clean up this code to make it work? I could try it with just transforming the shape, but I'm trying to see if it can be cleaner with Actionscript.

I have a color wheel with a triangle inside. I want the user to click and drag the triangle on its center axis. This way, the triangle shows the user the correct color triad.

I know it's possible to scale and rotate an object by using some actionscript. Is it also possible to distort an image?
For example; keep the topleft corner and the bottomleft corner of an object at the same position and put the topright and bottomright corner of the same object 25 pixels down.

Would like to develop simple (in browser) puzzle games where shapes (such as a puzzle piece shape) can be simultaneously dragged and rotated, then dropped on the screen or canvas. The game mode would be to click and drag the shape or object, while simultaneously rotating the piece using arrow keys Is this possible in Flash? This simple general activity of simultaneous drag and rotate, then drop, is my intended overallweb site game basis. I'm new to Flash but have developed Windows executables for many years. I'm trying to decide whether to purchase and learn Flash as platform for interactive educational puzzle games running in browser windows.

I want to rotate an object using the arrows on the keyboard when the mouse is over the object and it should not be possible to rotate the object when the mouse is not on the object. I know how to rotate the object, when the mouse is over the object, but when I put the mouse outside the object I can still rotate the object. How do I make the rotation stop?
