I would like to create a shooting star trail. This would be some form of particle effect and I was wondering if anyone would have a code or source file I could use as a reference. Ideally I want something I can place in a movie clip and then place that on a guide so the shooting star's trail can be directed and controlled, say flying up to the sky and going round in a circle before vanishing. Any help appreciated.
Try the TweenToZone to animate particles how you'd like with Flint:

Although I realize this is a coding question and you might raise a brow at it, the Starling (Stage3D GPU accelerated) particles are much better but require a learning curve. You can find a ton of tutorials on Google about Starling to get that started. Otherwise here's the particle system for it:

You can always run down the Starling video series and learn a ton and note that the last video tutorial is Particles.
That's a great resource, and is more or less what I was looking for. Thanks.
