Non-Movement
OK, I've got my basic movement script set up for a character, with it detecting whether or not it's trying to go outside the boundaries and stops it doing that.
Code: onClipEvent (load) { moveSpeed = 16; } onClipEvent (enterFrame) { if (Key.isDown (Key.RIGHT)) { this._x += moveSpeed; } else if (Key.isDown (Key.UP)) { this._y -= moveSpeed; } else if (Key.isDown (Key.DOWN)) { this._y += moveSpeed; } else if (Key.isDown (Key.LEFT)) { this._x -= moveSpeed; } if (this._x < 0) { this._x = 0; } else if (this._y < 0) { this._y = 0; } else if (this._x > 352) { this._x = 352; } else if (this._y > 352) { this._y = 352; } }
Now, how do I code for an item which can't be passed, such as a rock? I know I could do this:
Code: if (this._x = 32 && this._y = 64) {//don't move left}
But that seems like a long way around. Any help?

Mouse-movement Triggers Background Movement - Help Me Find Tutorial
I want to learn how to make an image react on my mouse-movement, so you get the effect as if you're looking around. You move the mouse to the right, and the image on the screen moves to the right, etc. I've seen an example of that on http://www.center-of-the-world.com/ - but I don't know how to find a tutorial for that on the Flashkit-site. Can anyone help?
Capturing Mouse Movement/locking Out A Direction Of Movement
does anyone have a good solution in AS 2 for simulating horizontal and vertical finger gestures like on an iPhone?
I have a Mouse listener that calculates movement in both directions and whichever one is larger in value (primary movement of mouse) then it locks out the other using a boolean value. And then once the mouseUp event is triggered, it sets the values to true again to listen for another horizontal or vertical gesture movement.
the problem I'm running into is that every once in awhile while I'm "gesturing" or moving the mouse in a particular direction, I'll get some funky results which clues me into that the other direction might not being totally locked out.
Make any sense?
Flowing Mc Movement Opposite Of Mouse Movement
I have a mc (fStrip) which looks like a piece of filmstrip with thumbnail images in it. I want this mc to move when the users mouse is positioned over it, but I only want it to move only along it's x-axis and in a direction opposite that of the mouse. And I want it to move or flow smoothly.
I've been trying to figure this out (see my lame attempt below) but without much luck. Can anyone help me out? Thanks.
onClipEvent (mouseMove) {
buffer=20 //movement buffer
mousePos=_root.fStrip._xmouse //store mouse position
if (mymouse!=_root.fStrip._xmouse){ //if the mouse has moved
diff=mymouse-_root.fStrip._xmouse; //find amount of movement
_root.fStrip._x-=diff/buffer; //buffer & set strips movement
updateAfterEvent(); //adding this makes the movement cleaner
}
}
Image Movement Based On Mouse Movement
I have my Flash canvas. In the Canvas I have an image that's centered and larger than the canvas. Obviously the entire image isn't shown. How can I use actionscript to move the image according to where the mouse is? So if I move my mouse to the top right corner I want the image to move accordingly to display the top-right corner (obviously in a smooth fashion . I tried looking for examples but wanted to know if anybody out there new.
Any ideas?
Little help and thanks in advance!

Ants Movement (based On Snow Movement)
Hey! I have a question for those who think they can help and might have the time to do so. I wish to get the effect of ants scuttering across the screen or up a tree, I have not decided which direction yet. I started with the tutorial code for the snow effect from kirupa, and changed it around to fit the little vector ant I created. The way I have it now looks pretty good, but the movement is a little too fluid. They obviously move in sinusoidal paths bc the code tells them to. I have about 20 copies of the main obj, and they're all a little different in size and specs (speed, transparency, etc) but what I was wondering was if there is any way I can change the code to make it a little more hectic, or erratic, not so fluid. If there is no way of doing so, it looks pretty good right now. If there is, however, I think it could look awesome. here's the code I'm using for the object.
onClipEvent (load) {
//stage
movieWidth = 850;
movieHeight = 50;
//mods for ants
i = 1+Math.random()*5;
k = 1.2*(-Math.PI)+Math.random()*Math.PI;
//each ant diff
this._xscale = this._yscale=38+Math.random()*30;
this._alpha = 75+Math.random()*100;
this._y = -10+Math.random()*movieHeight;
this._x = -10+Math.random()*movieWidth;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
rad += (k/70)*Math.PI;
this._y -= Math.cos(rad);
this._x += i;
if (this._x>=movieWidth) {
this._x = -3;
}
if ((this._y>=movieHeight) || (this._y<=0)) {
this._y = -2+Math.random()*movieHeight;
this._x = -3;
}
}
(I apologize for posting the code without one of those code boxes ppl use, I do not know how to do that yet....)
Any help is greatly appreciated! I wanted to congratulate everyone here at kirupa for having a great community, and great help to those that need it. I am so glad to be a part of it.

Object Movement Based On Mouse Movement
Not sure how to word this but. I have a object on the stage lets say that is 300 pixels wide. The actual stage is only 100px wide. I want to be able to "pan" the object left and right based on mouse position/movement. I saw a tutorial for it a while back but cant seem to find it. Anyone have a link to a tut or can throw out a little source code? It would be greatly appreciated.

Sluggish Movement With ActionScripted Movement...
I really enjoy using the following bit of code for quick little flash animations:
=======================================
onClipEvent (load) {
_root.targXscale = 50;
_root.targYscale = 200;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
cXscale = this._xscale;
cYscale = this._yscale;
difXscale = cXscale-_root.targXscale;
difYscale = cYscale-_root.targYscale;
setProperty(this, _xscale, cXscale-(difXscale/5));
setProperty(this, _yscale, cYscale-(difYscale/5));
}
=======================================
It comes straight from the tutorials ("Basic Animation via ActionScript"). Anyways, whenever I view the .swf (via IE) on my computer (2.4 Ghz / 512 MB RAM), it looks great... better than great... it looks AWESOME! But, if I check it out at work (550 Mhz, 256 MB RAM) it looks terrible. It's choppy, mouse movement is sluggish, and the entire animation looks like it's running at 1 or 2 FPS.
I know it can't be completely dependent on the computer speed, b/c I've seen other flash sites that look great on the slower PC. Even some of the non-scripted movements are sluggish on my work PC... what the?! Is there a snippet of code that would / could help?
"Electron Movement" Tricky Actionscript Movement Animation
Can anybody help me with the actionscript for this one?
Objects floating from right to left on a page, when they float into static objects instead of passing behind them or in front of them or bouncing off them and going the other way, they simply move round the static objects and carry on.
Like drunks walking through a jungle of lamposts.
Movement Of One Object Dependant On The Movement Of Another Object
I am trying to get the browser to move the levers which in turn moves a constant laser beam.
The two levers control the beams position if you move the top beam it moves left to right, and the side beam controls the horizontal movement. I only want the beam and the levers to be moved to the following.
Horizontal lever between positions 10 and 2 o'clock (the levers rotate at a central point)
Vertical lever - between 2 and 4 o'clock
The laser beam to be moved anywhere in the red circle but once the lever is not being moved then the beam also stops moving.
I appreciate this is a big ask and would be grateful for any help

i was lookin at the tutorial on how to build a starship game or somethin lie that and it shows you how to move the ship with the arrow keys. well i got that down but i want to know how to get it to stop at certain points, kinda like the constrain to rectange option on the startDrag
also im workin on another one (im just getting into games so i really dont know what im doing)with a plane as the "custom cursor" and when you click it fires and when you let go of the mouse button its supposed to stop, well it works except i have it "constrained to rectangle" and if i try to click while at the edges of the rectangle it wont fire. i've uploaded the .fla to http://www.geocities.com/unicoscc/plane2.fla

Hello,
I made a Flash file for graphics:
I made a grid and put a round Movie Clip.
Then I made 2 dynamic text boxes: When someone types numbers in the boxes and clicks on "Go,", the round movie clip will go to the position given...
For ex. If I type 2 in the first text box, and -3 in the second, the round Movieclip will go to the point <2;-3>.
My question: How can I, using actionScript, make "Round" MOVE to the location, instead of simply going there in a Flash?
Thanks a lot

I have this script attached to a movie clip:
onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
_x = _root._xmouse;
_y = _root._ymouse;
}
so that the clip is basically attached to the mouse. this is okay, but i'd prefer if the clip gradually drifted towards the mouse, wherever it is on the stage. is there a loop i can put into this script that will continually move the movie clip towards the _xmouse and y_mouse coordinates? i can't figure out how to do it. anybody know how?
thanks!

I have a menu system like a grid 5 blocks high and 4 blocks wide. The blocks of the grid are used as a mask, to display jpg's loaded bleow which move according to which button is pressed. At the moment the jpg's move x,y & diagonally. What Im trying to do is make the jpg's move ONLY on an x,y axis can anyone suggest a good method? Below is the method I am using atm...
function buttonPress() {
_root.backImage.dx = _root.Items[this.index].dx;
_root.backImage.dy = _root.Items[this.index].dy;
}
function buttonOver() {

function backMotion() {

this._y = this._y+(((-this.dy)-this._y)/2);
Thanks.

Hi, ok ive got these randomly drawn shapes at the top and bottom of the screen. This is the code to move draw them and move the top ones..
code: //Vars

function myDraw(n, x, y)
{
var temp_mc = this.createEmptyMovieClip("shape" + n*2, n*2);

temp_mc._x = x;
temp_mc._y = y;
temp_mc.lineStyle(1, 0x000000, 100);//Line colour and Alpha
temp_mc.beginFill(0x000000, 100);//Fill colour and Alpha
temp_mc.moveTo(400, 0);//Start shape at X Y
temp_mc.lineTo(random(250)+5, random(60)+60);//Draw a line at random
temp_mc.lineTo(0, 0);//Draw a line
temp_mc.endFill();//End the shape
}
myDraw(n*2, 100, 0);
//Repeat myDraw function
for(var i=2*n; i < 100; i++)//1000 Times
{
myDraw(i, i*250, 0);//adding 250 to X
}
//Move them
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
for (i=n*2; i<=100; i++) {
this["shape"+i]._x += xspeed;
xspeed-=acceleration;
}
};
function myDraw2(n, x, y) {
var temp_mc2 = this.createEmptyMovieClip("shape2"+n*2+1, n*2+1);
trace(temp_mc2);
temp_mc2._x = x;
temp_mc2._y = y;
temp_mc2.lineStyle(1, 0x000000, 100);//Line colour and Alpha
temp_mc2.beginFill(0x000000, 100);//Fill colour and Alpha
temp_mc2.moveTo(400, stage.height);//Start shape at X Y
temp_mc2.lineTo(random(250)+5, stage.height-random(60)-70);//Draw a line at random
temp_mc2.lineTo(0, stage.height);//Draw a line at random
temp_mc2.endFill();//End the shape
}
myDraw2(2*n+1, 101, 0);
//Repeat myDraw2 function
for(var i=0; i < 100; i++)//100 Times
{
myDraw2(i, i*250, 0);//adding 250 to X
}
And its all working good up to now, then i add this to move the bottom ones...
code: //Move them
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
for (i=n*2+1; i<=100; i++) {
this["shape2"+i]._x += xspeed;
xspeed-=acceleration;
}
};
and when i add it, it moves the bottom ones (apart from the first one) and stops the top ones from moving, any one have any ideas what im doing wrong?? thanks

Car Movement
I am making a game, where the car moves (from overhead view) and I got it driving and turning... but i am not satisfied with just the rotation of the car... because a car doesn't spin in a circle, it follows behind tires...
I need a way (not nessarly script) to have the car drag behind the tires (of which will be visable when wheels are turned). Any good ideas or movies I could look at?
Movement
How can I make a movieclip move to the right as well as to go to a certain frame? I wrote this:
if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT){
_root.head_mc._x+=3;
_root.head_mc.gotoAndPlay(36)
}
however, it goes back to frame 36 each time it moves 3 frames to the right. I want it to continue to frame 37, 38, etc. How can I do this?
Please Help On 3D Movement.
I need help with a project I have. I need to make the bubbles rotate around (without the text). Can someone help me with a link to a tutorial or even a script that might help with this. The bubbles, of course, will need to move further to the background and get larger as they get closer.
My big problem is that when the mouse moves over on then it needs to slow down and attach to the mouse...so obviously it needs to be actionscipt and not done with frames. Thanks.
MC Movement
hey,
i am fairly new at actionscripting ( i mostly animate FBF). and i was wondering for a menu of an animation of mine i was looking for a way to reproduce the effect seen here Gore 3D well once you are in you can see the series of little white MC's that react to the mouse movement. how can you recreate that. i was trying to achive something like that and i think that the script should calculate the distance between the MC and the current mouse possition, then if the distance is less than oh, say, 50 it begins to move it a circular motion around a fixed anchor, using i think 'math.round'? i am not very good at writing AS2 but i think that i might be on the right track, any help is appreciated!

anyway whenever i make my character move, or swing his bat he freezes untill the button is released, then it plays the animation, how can i make it so that it goes to a certain "labeled frame" and plays it, not goes to the "labeles" frame and then holds there untill the button is released
as usual theres a .fla to help you understand my gibberish...
[F8] Movement #2
I'm a begginer in programming and I would like to get some tips.
I have a object for which I want to start moving on release of spacebar. I'm not talking about change-position kind of movement (2 frames). I'm talking about motion-tween kind of movement (you know, something like x = x+5 on every new frame loaded)??
Can someone write the script down?
[f8] Movement?
I'm a good animator...but a newbie at actionscripting...I mean, I can do all the simple stuff, like buttons, and goto, play, stop, all that stuff.
Right now, I just want to know how to move something with the arrow keys, and please use a...simple way of telling it, since as I said, I'm a newbie with actionscritping. PLEASE HELP ME. Thank-you to those who do.
[F8] HELP About Movement
I have downloaded "011-keyD-mattyb01-905" file from Tutorial section to learn key direction. I opened fla file and tested movie. Then i opened new blank file and created my own object (MC) and used the same actionscripts from tutorial. Then i tested my movie. But it did not work. I tried it many times but it did not work. Then i copy the frame from tutorial and paste it into a new fla and tested it. And again it did not work. Only the tutorial file is working when i test. Others do NOT. Can it be because of version differences. I need your help. I attached the fla i made.
