I have a random motion script that I need to remove when the object in random motion hovers over a specific area in the background. I need the object to just keep moving in the direction it was going in and not randomly switch directions or bounce.
This is my script for the random motion which is on the object:
onClipEvent (load) {
//data you may want to change
width = 1100;
height = 800;
speed =1;
//initial positions
x = Math.random()*width;
y = Math.random()*height;
this._x = x;
this._y = y;
x_new = Math.random()*width;
y_new = Math.random()*height;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
//x movement
if (x_new>this._x) {
sign_x = 1;
} else {
sign_x = -1;
}
dx = Math.abs(x_new-this._x);
if ((dx>speed) || (dx<-speed)) {
this._x += sign_x*speed;
} else {
x_new = Math.random()*width;
}
//y movement
if (y_new>this._y) {
sign_y = 1;
} else {
sign_y = -1;
}
dy = Math.abs(y_new-this._y);
if ((dy>speed) || (dy<-speed)) {
this._y += sign_y*speed;
} else {
y_new = Math.random()*height;
}
}
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
