Push the object away

Tutorial shows you how to push the object away using the Action Script in flash 8. You will also learn how to convert that object into a Movie Clip Symbol, how to use Action Script Panel and more.



Step 1

Create a new flash document, and choose Modify > Document (Ctrl+J) and set Width to 300 and Height to 250px. Frame rate set to 70fps (Frames per Second).





Step 2

Create, or Import any object, and convert it into a Moive Clip.





Step 3

Double click on a new made Movie Clip (object) to go in its inside.

Step 4

After that insert a new layer and name it action.

x0=_x
y0=_y
x=_root._xmouse
y=_root._ymouse
a=x-x0
b=y-y0
r=Math.sqrt(a*a+b*b)

quer_fugir_x=this._x-(a/r)*MAAI/r
quer_fugir_y=this._y-(b/r)*MAAI/r

quer_voltar_x=(x00-x0)/2
quer_voltar_y=(y00-y0)/2

this._x=quer_fugir_x+quer_voltar_x
this._y=quer_fugir_y+quer_voltar_y

Step 7
