i have this code to move a clip from point a to point b. it works fine, no problems at all with the movement. the problem i am having is to stipulate what point a is. the code lets me predefine what point b will be. i can state what the x and y coords will be for that but i cannot say what the point a x and y coords wil be
a step by step to movement is below:
add code to the movieclip
onClipEvent(load)
frict = .2
ratio = .1
turnSp = xSp = ySp = xScSp = yScSp = 0
turnEnd = _parent.turnEnd
xEnd = _parent.xEnd
yEnd = _parent.yEnd
xscaleEnd = _parent.xscaleEnd
yscaleEnd = _parent.yscaleEnd
onClipEvent(enterFrame)
turnSp = turnSp*frict+(turnEnd-_rotation)ratio
xSp = xSpfrict+(xEnd-_x)ratio
ySp = ySpfrict+(yEnd-_y)ratio
xScSp = xScSpfrict+(xscaleEnd-_xscale)ratio
yScSp = yScSpfrict+(yscaleEnd-_yscale)*ratio
this._x += xSp
this._y += ySp
this._rotation += turnSp
this._xscale += xScSp
this._yscale += yScSp
now set the parameters for the tween on the main timeline
( on a frame or button action )
xEnd=475
yEnd=300
turnEnd=180
xscaleEnd = 120
yscaleEnd = 200
see the problem?
i dont. would love a little help on this please!
