[Behavior] moveto

wow dude I forgot I had this behaviour installed... it saved me all the code(events) I was making to do what I can do in two lines. Awesome mon.

Can we make this move to behavior to & fro like an sprite with this behavior goes to a certain point & returns constantly !!!

rexrainbow I noticed that the MoveTo's retrievable "Moving Angle" is not independent to the behavior. For example, if I use the MoveTo and Sine behaviors together, the movement from the Sine behavior changes the MoveTo's Moving Angle. I assume you're just getting the angle between the object's current position and previous position for this. Can it be fixed/changed? Or do you have a workaround?

Yes, the moving angle is calculated by "object's current position and previous position".

You might store initial "moving angle" in private variable manually before moving.

rexrainbow It is possible to integrate some ease-in/out functions like this http://easings.net/ ?

At the moment I use LiteTween behavior which is nice since is a combination of the sine + move_to begavior (it uses movement, size, values etc), but I like MoveTo behavior better.

Ease InOut is great for moving menu items, dropping bouncing objects, it creates a more organic/elastic feeling

The biggest problem with the LiteTween is that it rely on the time needed to move from A to B, instead of the speed and it does not have a control to "scale" the function, or define a start or end point (like acceleration and deceleration). The function is scaled depending on the time that takes

Cipriux

Total time in easing function is fixed, and the speed will be changed by easing function.

I do not think I could make a easing behavior which has a fixed maximum speed, it would not be an easing at all.

rexrainbow Tried that and a handful of other things. The sine keeps screwing it up. Can't you just change the moving angle to the angle between previous target and next target instead? Or a new type of moving angle that does something like that to be completely independent of other behaviors?

edit: Trying to do this myself with events but it's easier said than done...

I would like to create a new expression instead of changing "MovingAngle" for backward compatible.

Which name would you like?

• MovingAnlge0
• MovingAngleStart
• ?

MovingAngleStart is fine. Thanks for taking the time to add this! I kind of found a different solution but it involves a dummy var and some other stuff and still isn't perfect.

Uptate

MoveTo behavior: add expression:MovingAngleStart to get angle between start point to target position.

Done.

hi rex,

i would like to use your moveto plugin

when i install it on c2

and when i lunch c2 it gives me the following error

It should be put at behaviors folder, not plugins folder.

I have it on the behaviours folder and still when I load a capx says that I am missing the behaviour as if it wasnt there.

I have no idea, sorry.

Hey! I really love the MoveTo behaviour. But I'm having a problem with it. Say I have an object with bullet behavior moving towards the right. And on click I use the MoveTo x=self.x y=self.y+100.

It does everything right until it reaches the correct position. But once there the object jumps back to the x where it was before the I clicked.

Is there a solution to this? I can not provide a capx because I'm at work. I might be able to do it tomorrow but I whould like to figure this out as soon as possible. Thanks
