Can anyone help me with a bounceTo function?

[dudeqwerty]

Hello,

I'm trying to write a function which makes a movieclip bounce to a certain position.

All I've come up with is a bit of trig which moves the clip up and down while gradually shifting the 'base' y position and a straight tween on the x axis.

But it just looks like a ball going up and down along a path, and not like it bouncing into position.

Anyone got any ideas?

cheers.

I'm not sure what exactly you're tryna do but I can suggest you using a Tween to do the bouncing.
You can find a lot about using tweens here:

I find tweens the most applicable and easiest way to do the jobs like this

Thanks caseyryan,

I'd completely forgotten about this thread and had figured it out already (using tweens).

I can post the code up as it's now too integrated with the rest of my code base, but it general idea is as follows.

The x axis of the movement was tweened using a straight, non-eased, tween. Then calculate how many bounces I want based on the distance of the tween, and create a separate tween for the up and down motion of each bounce. Eased in the eased out to put some pseudo gravity in there.
Then I just stitched the tweens together using a tween timeline manager.

I used the greensock Tweenlite and Timeline libraries.

Cheers,
