I want to make a box come from off screen then bounce back and forth and then come settled down in the middle of the screen. It can be random bouning intervels or a set amount, it really does not matter. Does anyone think they can point me in the right direction?
Thank ya
Sure… make the box a movie clip, place it where you want it to start from, then add the following code to the outside of it.
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
xVelocity=this._x-200; //assuming that your movie is 400 across
xVelocity*=.94;
this._x+=xVelocity;
}
At least I think that will work. If not, just tell me and I’ll fix it. It may be that the numbers are reversed… I’m doing it from memory.
it didnt bounce back and forth, it just went straight off the stage to the left really fast. I dunno
lol. I’ll work it out. I’m home now. Give me a minute or two.
you can try this. I find it to be a little choppy, but it works
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
diff=200-this._x;
velocity+=diff;
velocity*=.94;
_x+=velocity;
}
sweet man, thanks a bunch bro
You can just adjust it like as you wish:
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
diff=200-this._x;
velocity+=diff*.2;
velocity*=.94;
_x+=velocity;
}
And there’s a Springs tutorial too.
