movie clip as a button in AS2

[kingsley]

Hello Embussy, to have different buttons spining the wheel, I have divided up the code, so you have two functions, over() and out(), check it out below. I have also included an fla attachment with a working example of two buttons calling the same wheel to spin. I put some variables for you to play around with, increase speed etc.

This is a very simple and quick code, will work for small projects, but cannot be used to launch a rocket or anything like that.lol enjoy, hope it helps :

var startspeed    = 30;
var maxSpeed     = 60;
var halt             = 0;
var accelerateBy = 1; //this will speed up speed up spinning as you increase
var applyBrakeBy = 1; //play around with this to increase breaking

btn1.onRollOver = over;
btn1.onRollOut  = out;

btn2.onRollOver = over;
btn2.onRollOut  = out;

function over()
{
	onEnterFrame = function()
	{
		startspeed += accelerateBy;
		wheel_mc._rotation += startspeed;

		if(startspeed >= maxSpeed)
		{
			startspeed = maxSpeed;
		}
	}
	
}

function out()
{
	onEnterFrame = function()
	{
		startspeed -= applyBrakeBy;
		wheel_mc._rotation += startspeed;
		
		if(startspeed <= halt)
		{
			startspeed = halt;
			delete this.onEnterFrame;
		}
	}
	
}
