Animate curve path as3

[tanvira5454192]

flash has every easy even code snippet for Animate horizontally .

but what about curve path ? i searched internet a lot for this but did not get any satisfactory easy to to animate along this curve . i need code . no motion tween

can you suggest me any blog or article for that?

note : i will draw curve using brush tool so pls refer no code to draw curve , rather give me code  for the movieclip (ex: man ) to run on the curve

One way to do this is to duplicate the blue line onto a new layer. Then you can make that layer a guide layer for the character. Here's a useful tutorial on the concept: Flash Guide Layer Tutorial

i don't really think you want to use actionscript for that motion, but if you do, you can use greensocks' bezier plugin for tweenmax.  otherwise, use a guide layer like rob suggested.

its a simple car game sir . i just need to run the man in the curve using up arrow key . thats all

read that guide layer tutorial.

sorry, i need to run it using keyboard event . guide layer is for only animation . i need event handling

[kglad · Accepted solution]

use:

stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN,keydownF);

function keydownF(e:KeyboardEvent):void{

if(e.keyCode==whatever){

skateboarder.play();

}

}

is acceleration possible for this guide method ? because we are not using value here . so how will we multiply value to accelerate ?

yes, you can use any of the easing properties available in animate.
