Random problem

May 7, 2012 3:22 PM

Hi

 

My ball turns just once and stops where it began after one circle.Meaning 360 degrees; what if I want it to stop at 275, or 160. Help, suggestions,  will be appreciated. Thank you. I can make it turn as many times I want to, but the ball always end up at the origin of mouvement. Timer ???  And Randomize it ?

    Yes. I click on a button, and the ball turns a full 360 degrees in a circle. I want it to stop anywhere in the circle randomly. Sorry for the choice of words, I mean rotate along a circonférence.

    code. I am thinking of using frames to solve my problem, although it want be as elegant as something happening randomly. I am going to choose 7  situations ( frames )  each with a different currantAngle

     

    currentAngle<-.5;

    currentAngle<-.7;

    currentAngle<-.9;

    currentAngle<-1.5;

    -------

    --------

    and so on. Each click will take me to different frame.The user won't notice a thing hopefully.

    var newRotation:Number;

    var myTween:Tween

     

    myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
    function onClick(e:MouseEvent){

        newRotation = Math.random() * 360;
       myTween = new Tween(myBall, "rotation", Strong.easeOut, myBall.rotation, newRotation, .5, true);
    }

    Giving me error messages. What did I do wrong? I copied, pasted the script and drew a ball and a button.

     

    Scene 1, Layer 'as3', Frame 1, Line 7 1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Tween.

    Scene 1, Layer 'as3', Frame 1, Line 9 1180: Call to a possibly undefined method Tween.

    Scene 1, Layer 'as3', Frame 1, Line 9 1120: Access of undefined property Strong.

    i thought you would know to have this up at the top of your code if you didnt already:

     

    import fl.transitions.Tween;
    import fl.transitions.easing.*;

    Hi

     

    Thank you for your help, but that was not what I was looking for. I am trying to make a roulette, but the ball stops always at the same place, as you can see below. I will do some fine tuning for the sound later.
