Hi!

I'm new to this forum and to Director but I have an urgent question.

I want to be able to click on a sprite, and after that I want to click on another sprite and the first sprite must "jump" to the location of the second sprite.

The code I have so far is capable of clicking on a sprite but the sprite jumps to the second sprite without clicking on the second on. I know this is because I iserted the sprite number (1) in it.

Maybe it gets a bit more clear when I just give you the code I have so far :)


property pThisSprite

on beginSprite me
set pThisSprite = sprite(me.spriteNum)
end beginSprite

on mouseUp me
sprite(pThisSprite).loc = sprite(1).loc
end


So I dont have the chance to click on the sprite it supposed to jump to.

Any help will be very great!

Thanks in advance!

I think I might have been able to figure this one out for you, you just need to add this script to each of the sprites that are going to be moving. I didn't quite understand what you wanted to do, but I think this is pretty close.

You also need to add a startMovie movie script that sets the gFirstClick and gSecondClick to ""

Hope this helps!!

Happy Programming,
Greg Hudy


global gFirstClick
global gSecondClick



on mouseUp me
if gFirstClick = "" then
gFirstClick = sprite(me.spriteNum)
else
if gFirstClick = sprite(me.spriteNum) then
gFirstClick = sprite(me.spriteNum)
else
if gFirstClick <> sprite(me.spriteNum) then
gSecondClick = sprite(me.spriteNum)
gFirstClick.loc = gSecondClick.loc
gFirstClick = EMPTY
gSecondClick = EMPTY

end if
end if
end if
end
