Kirupa's Full Flash Site Tutorial

I’m confused on how those circles are moving in the back. Could someone explain this to me? Thanks.

there’s also a tutorial about that… :stuck_out_tongue:

Ahh…ok… Thanks!

no problem. :beam:

and welcome to kirupa forum, by the way. =)

I couldn’t quite fully understand that tutorial since I am real new to this. What is the circle following exactly? Is it following a motion guide or what?

No motion guide, the circles are advanced horizontally by this piece of AS.

this._x = location+i++;

That takes the location and moves it to the right by adding one to the variable ‘location’. At least I think. Point is, there’s no motion guide associated with programmed motion. The only place I use a motion guide is with tweens.
