Have been trying to script curved movement whereby a random point is chosen on the stage and a mc (movie clip) moves towards it following a curved path
played around a bit and found that i couldnt quite grasp the math since it has been an age since i looked worked with my geometry
is there a tutorial i havent looked at or a site where i can find some reference material on the math behind this kind of move ment
would aprreciate the help a great deal
Thanks
You want the script or the how to do it
Curved motion = (XX)+(YY) = Constant
Or set the y position as a function of the X postion through Sin / Cos of the angle between them and the horizontal / vertical.
Rmember this will return radians where pi/2 = 180 degrees (i think)
You want a perfectly circle movement ? Or some other type of movement ?
sorry was away for a while while all these replies came in. Basically what i was trying was that the mc moves snakelike towrads the chosen point.
Since the object is varying on both its _x and _y as it does this what is the trig function i can use
Sin and cos 
there’s a trig tute…
Be nice else i’ll Tan yo ***.
Hehehehehe Trig humor < bet you never thought you see that in your lifetime or want to see it either!
