hi Wyert, If this is the kind of thing you might do more than once then I strongly recommend checking out the 'hype' AS3 framework from Joshua Davis and Branden Hall.

Really nice, only the problem I am currently happening is the issue when I am creating sprites dynamically during runtime the origin is not in the bottom center but in the top left which goofs up everything. And when I try to do: x = -( b.width / 2 ); y = -( b.height ); Before I am updating the positions as calculated the trigonometry formulas. I am quite sure I am overseeing something, though. Not sure what is wrong even when I do this after the setting x,y to the values of nx, ny it still fails for me. The current code I am using is as follows: http://www.innerfuse.biz/dropbox/code.txt Anyone know what I could be doing wrong? Thanks again, you guys are lifesavers :) (really need to get a book about mathematics again to fresh up) Yours, Weyert de Boer _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders This e-mail, including any attached files, may contain confidential and privileged information for the sole use of the intended recipient.
