[...] requires much less AS? This is associated with the famous gold miner step 2 tutorial located here: http://www.emanueleferonato.com/2008…-miner-step-2/ Code: // boulders are stored in an array // [0] is x pos // [1] is y pos // [2] is the width // [...]

Hey,

I’m wondering how to set the acceleration and friction to the movieClip. I was trying to add to the above code something like this:

power = 0.1;
yspeed = 0;
xspeed = 0;
friction = 0.95;
zwolnienie = 4;

if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
xspeed -= power*zwolnienie;
}
if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
xspeed += power*zwolnienie;
}
if (Key.isDown(Key.PGUP)) {
yspeed -= power;
}
if (Key.isDown(Key.PGDN)) {
yspeed += power;

}
xspeed *= friction;
yspeed *= friction;
pod._y += yspeed;
pod._x += xspeed;

But it doesn’t work:(

I think something is wrong with your RSS Feed. The latest article I have from you is “tips for learning a new language”. It seems to only update the feed sporadically.

Kevin, yes but if you play the real Gold Miner game you will see that when you hit a Bag, the pod penetrates it also differs depending what object you’re picking up.

Maybe that could be on hit, remove object movie and set pod frame on the frame where u pick up the kind of boulder?

Erv, one way you could do this would be to simply create another frame for the pod. Then where the pod “picks” the boulder just add a frame change for the pod.

I have my pod changing frames when the user clicks the mouse so it opens, then closes when it touches a boulder. Or it closes when it reaches the outside of the level.

BTW How can we make it so the spike change on picking up and penetrates the boulder, also changing the boulder, with sprites maybe?

I’m trying but no luck.
