Awesome Tutorial - Flash 8 - Objects move in one direction with mouse

[legendari8031]

this is great, but how would you restrict the movement to between 2 points on an axis, so the object wont move right to the edges of the page on the x or y axis?

cheers

I cannot make this work on Flash CS5 AS2 or AS3.

The ball simply does not move!!

Any thoughts?

Thanks for the video though!

[manesshardey]

can this tutorial applicable for flash cs3? 

[ddoodm]

@manesshardey Yes. But you'll need to select ActionScript 2 instead of ActionScript 3 when creating a new flash document. :)

can anyone explain what is the need for writing : "OnEnterframe" , since we are not inserting any frames in the timeline..

[ddoodm]

@Ahmadkhanize Although the stage only contains one frame, the clip still must know when to execute it's code. onEnterFrame is a function that is called whenever it's host frame is shown. So, for example, if the clip is on frame three, the code would be executed on frame three.

If we were to use another function, such as, onLoad, the code would execute when the clip is loaded.

Hope that helps!

[legobatman1]

how can you make it go in any directions?

[Visionaf]

@legobatman1 I've tried this onEnterFrame = function(){

ball1._x = _xmouse;

ball1._y = _ymouse;

}

actually the human eye can see up to 75 frames a second but it depends on lighting and the amount of activity you are seeing ect

[ddoodm]

Oh ok cool! Thought it would be something around there. :) Don't know why those retards are saying you can only see 25. :)

Thanks for sharing!

Can you make a video of how to make an object follow when the mouse is CLICKED? Ive been searching... And i thought this is what I needed but, good video!!! ;)

[SubbingForFree]

there already is one =D look through Luther92's videos.

[CalvertPratt561]

@xrayblaze67 Im thinking you need to you a boolian statement (if or else). as in

" if (spacebar is down)

{  person lives;

}

else

{ person explodes;

}"

lol
