Movement

[123kirby]

Hey guys, i'm new to flash 8, and i'm working on remaking a flash game called "Penguin Chat" for my website. I've got most of it done, but i need to make the character walk to the mouse click. I have an animation for walking in every angle, but i don't know how to play it and make the character move toward the mouse click. Also, i need to make the character rotate "tracking" the mouse position. And, i have a room with music that plays but i want it to stop when you leave the room. How do i do these things?
Thanks!

To face mouse:-

xdiff = mouseX-penguin.x;
ydiff = mouseY-penguin.y;
penguin.rotation = Math.atan2(ydiff, xdiff)/(Math.PI/180) + 90;

To move towards mouse:

//On click event
function mclick(e:MouseEvent)
{
destX = mouseX;
destY = mouseY;
}

//Enterframe or any update event
function eframe(e:Event)
{
 var dx:Number = this.x - destX;
 var dy:Number = this.y - destY;
 var dist:Number = dx*dx+dy*dy; //distance to destination
 if(Math.abs(dist)>speed)
 {
 this.x += moveSpeed * Math.cos(this.rotation * (Math.PI/180));
 this.y += moveSpeed * Math.sin(this.rotation * (Math.PI/180));
 }
}

good, but how do i make the character change sprites? When i click i want him to do a walking animation to the click point.
Thanks

I've got most of it done

really? how much have you "actually" done till now?

if the walking animation is on frame 2, on the timeline place, gotoAndStop(2)

about 70%. Also, i get this error when i put in the walking code:

**Error** Scene=Scene 1, layer=Layer 1, frame=109:Line 2: Statement must appear within on/onClipEvent handler
     function mclick(e:MouseEvent)

**Error** Scene=Scene 1, layer=Layer 1, frame=109:Line 9: Statement must appear within on/onClipEvent handler
     function eframe(e:Event)

Total ActionScript Errors: 2 	 Reported Errors: 2

two more question (sorry) how do i start music in one room, and turn it off when you leave?
And: when the penguin contacts a wall how can i get him to either stop or go to another room?

about 70%

So if making the character turn, making the character walk to the mouse, checking if character hit a wall, and playing/stopping music is 30%, I wonder, what's the other 70%?
