Just wondering,
can anyone point me in a direction as of how to use AS to create movement with easing in AND out?
I was trying to get an mc spin according to the speed of the mouse. So when I move my mouse quickly, the object starts spinning faster and faster, but after reaching it’s maximum speed, it slows down again.
Maybe LiB, if your bored again?? 🙂
Cheers.

That’s really great!
I have to dive into it for a while to try and understand what all the AS is doing.
If I have any further questions, can I come back to you about this?
Thanks a lot!

I actually seem to understand the code which makes me happy 🙂
However, one question: this only uses easing out, right?
I mean, the rotation and moving speed start high and gradually slow down.
But would it be possible to have the speed increase gradually at first as well? (do I make any sense?)
Thanks.

:cool: Thanks a lot Ahmed!
One more thing I’m trying to do now:
if the wheel is speeding up because it’s getting to it’s target and you move the mouse just a little, the movement is slowed down completely again because of the:
```auto
onMouseMove = function() {
num = 100;
}
```
Still breaking my head on it…
p.s. I hope I’m not being too much of a pain in the b\*tt

use this code instead
```auto
num = 100;
onMouseMove = function () {
if (myvariable) {
num = 100;
}
};
// easing factor
/* |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| */
onEnterFrame = function () {
if (num<5) {
num = 4;
myvariable = true;
} else {
num -= 4;
myvariable = false;
}
trace(num);
difference = _xmouse-circle._x;
circle._x += difference/num;
circle._rotation += difference/num;
myText = "Slipperiness: "+(num-4);
pointer._x = _xmouse;
mc = this.createEmptyMovieClip("lines", 1);
with (lines) {
lineStyle(0, 0xFF6600);
moveTo(_root.circle._x, _root.circle._y);
lineTo(_root.pointer._x, _root.pointer._y);
lineStyle(0, 0xFF6600);
moveTo(_root.circle._x, _root.circle._y+4);
lineTo(_root.pointer._x, _root.pointer._y+4);
}
};
```
It’s kind of buggy though ☹

Thanks again. I will try it out when I get back home.
