random Tweening with the Tween Class

[asjbak]

Hi all,

I'm getting %@!#!#!@
I have a mc and I want to use the Tweenclass in it.
I want the mc to do random things. I tried everything i guess, just not the right thing

my last code:

import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;

var yScaleT:Tween = new Tween(this, "_rotation", Strong.easeInOut, -40, 40, 1, true);
yScaleT.onMotionFinished = function() {
    _root.test = random(2);
    //
if (_root.test == 0){
    var yScaleT:Tween = new Tween(this, "_rotation", Strong.easeInOut, -40, 40, 1, true);
} else if (_root.test == 1){
    var yScaleT:Tween = new Tween(this, "_rotation", Strong.easeInOut, -20, 20, 1, true);
} 

What I want is different tweens on the same mc playing radom, after eachother?

Anyone?

Thanx!

no one

I'm a little confused.....you want tweens to be executed in random order?

You are close......I'm assuming you're using AS 2.0. Try this:

import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;

var yScaleT:Tween = new Tween(myBox, "_rotation", Strong.easeInOut, -40, 40, 1, true);
yScaleT.onMotionFinished = function() {callNextTween();}
   
function callNextTween()
{
	 var rndNum = random(2);
	 
	 switch(rndNum)
	 {
		case 1:
			var yScaleT:Tween = new Tween(myBox, "_rotation", Strong.easeInOut, -40, 40, 1, true);
			break;
		case 2:
			var yScaleT:Tween = new Tween(myBox, "_rotation", Strong.easeInOut, -20, 20, 1, true);
			break;
	 }
}

I separated my code and placed it on the main timeline and just inserted my object (myBox) for this.

Hi Samac,

Thanks for your reply.!
It plays another tween now after the first one (changed case 1&2 to 0&1)

After this the animation stops. Do you know how I can get this thing to loop?
code for now:

import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
var yScaleT:Tween = new Tween(myBox, "_rotation", Strong.easeInOut, -40, 40, 1, true);
yScaleT.onMotionFinished = function() {
    callNextTween();
    trace("finished start");
};
function callNextTween() {
    var rndNum = random(2);
    switch (rndNum) {
    case 0 :
        var yScaleT:Tween = new Tween(myBox, "_rotation", Strong.easeInOut, -40, 40, 1, true);
        trace("zero");
        break;
    case 1 :
        var yScaleT:Tween = new Tween(myBox, "_rotation", Strong.easeInOut, -20, 20, 1, true);
        trace("one");
        break;
    }
}

Never mind! got it!

import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
var yScaleT:Tween = new Tween(myBox, "_x", Strong.easeInOut, -40, 40, 2, true);
yScaleT.onMotionFinished = function() {
    trace("finished start");
    callNextTween();
};
function callNextTween() {
    var rndNum = random(2);
    switch (rndNum) {
    case 0 :
        var yScaleP:Tween = new Tween(myBox, "_rotation", Strong.easeInOut, -40, 40, 1, true);
        trace("zero");
        //einde();
        break;
    case 1 :
        var yScaleP:Tween = new Tween(myBox, "_rotation", Strong.easeInOut, -20, 20, 1, true);
        trace("one");
        //einde();
        
        break;
        
    }
    yScaleP.onMotionFinished = function() {
    trace("finished start2");
    callNextTween();
};
}
