  You could use the cubic() or qarp() expressions with a t value.

  You can use this plugin:

  Or you can use javascript from the browser object. A google search on the subject may help.

  Use the paster object for that.

  For the correct formulas you can use this for calculating the forces:

  And this for the initial velocity:

  I made a capx without physics here:

  And here is info how to do it with physics:

  If they're only used for overlap checks and aren't drawn you could use this condition:

  System->pick overlapping point

  To check every pixel you'd use two for loops, but checking every pixel of the layout or even the screen is going to be slow no matter what you do. The best optimization is to check less pixels if you can.

  What will these said 1x1 pixel objects be doing or what effect are you after?

  If they don't move your best bet for performance would be with the canvas/paster objects or the tilemap object.

  If they move then other than sprites to best you can do is with the particle object. For other motions you're forced to use sprites or you can make your own plugin to draw the pixels in the same manner as particles.

  It should work with any browser that supports the web audio api.

  Found another js lib that performs a bit better but only plays mod files.

  https://github.com/jhalme/webaudio-mod-player

  It provides these js commands

  player.load(url)
  player.play()
  player.pause()
  player.stop()
  player.jump(step)
  player.setrepeat(true or false)
  [/code:3ni1sd18]
  
  Edit: for further reference here is a list of js mod player libs:

  I can't find a working demo of flodjs in action.

  I did find chiptune.js which seems to only use about 10% cpu in their demo on my system.

  I'm not crazy about writing plugins as the workflow to me is very tedious, but here's a test capx using the library. At the very least it allows me to see how capable the library is before wrapping it into a plugin.

  So far it loads the library and you can load and play music files once ReadyToPlay is 1. But anyway it gives something to play around with.

  I'd say the ati graphics card drivers are to blame. On my ati card I don't get that, but if I resize a sprite to 34% or smaller from the original image size the sprite becomes transparent.

  Maybe you'll be more lucky than me and be able to find a updated driver. Although my hunch is it has to do with some setting like mip mapping or something.

  If you're happy with having squares instantly swapping positions all you have to do is check if a square is a square length away. If it is just swap positions of the objects. All in all 1 event for the moving and another for randomly scrambling it yet still being solvable,

  For a more caviar version here's one I did a while back.

  I like using families so you can pick two instances of the same type. Then it's just a matter of comparing the distances. If too close, push apart.

  It can be a little simpler.
