can someone help with this code? what is doing exactly?
Thank you
onClipEvent(load){
speedX = -10;
speedY = -10;
stageWidth = Stage.width;
stageHeight = Stage.height;
}
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
_x+=speedX;
_y+=speedY;
if(_root.paddle.hitTest(this)){
speedX = Math.abs(speedX);
}
if(_y<_width/2){
speedY = Math.abs(speedY);
}
if(_y>(stageHeight-(_width/2))){
speedY = -10;

Well to start with,
| Code: |
onClipEvent(load){
speedX = -10;
speedY = -10;
stageWidth = Stage.width;
stageHeight = Stage.height;
}
|
This sets the different variables, the top two are how fast the thing will move. Then the next bit.
| Code: |
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
_x+=speedX;
_y+=speedY;
if(_root.paddle.hitTest(this)){
speedX = Math.abs(speedX);
}
if(_y<_width/2){
speedY = Math.abs(speedY);
}
if(_y>(stageHeight-(_width/2))){
speedY = -10;
} |
Moves the object until it hits a MC called paddle. It then does a calculation and changes the value either speedX or speedY depending on what it hits, this will then make the object fly of in a different direction. The last to IF statements say that if the object goes outside the area the direction will be changed so it goes back in again.
Is that what you wanted to know?
