Objects falling into the screen

Hello again! I see this topic is going pretty far so i thought i’d throw in something cool i put together!!

Try it out!

local circle = {} local aCounter = 1 local timerOne local circleMiddle = display.newCircle( display.contentCenterX, display.contentCenterY, 20 ) circleMiddle.alpha = 0.2 function zoomOut() circleTransOne = transition.to( circle[aCounter], { time = 1000, x = circleMiddle.x, y= circleMiddle.y, xScale = 0.001, yScale = 0.001, alpha = 0, onComplete = removeCircle }) end function removeCircle(event) local removeOne = event.target display.remove(removeOne) end local function spawnCirlces() local xSpawn = math.random(display.contentWidth \* 0, display.contentWidth \* 1 ) local ySpawn = math.random(display.contentHeight \* 0, display.contentHeight \* 1) circle[aCounter] = display.newCircle( xSpawn, ySpawn, 2 ) circle[aCounter].value = aCounter zoomOut() aCounter = aCounter + 1 end timerOne = timer.performWithDelay( 10, spawnCirlces, -1 )

Good Luck and Thanks!

EDIT - Fixed a small bug, should be perfect now!

Yes, the box will go towards the anchor points. To have it go to the centre, you just have to account for the difference.

local circ = display.newCircle( display.contentCenterX, display.contentCenterY, 50 ) circ.anchorX = 0, 0 circ.anchorY = 0, 0 local boxShadow = display.newRect( circ.x, circ.y, 150, 150 ) boxShadow:setFillColor(0, 0, 0, 0.5) local box = display.newRect(display.contentCenterX, display.contentCenterY, 150, 150) box:setFillColor(1, 0, 0) transition.to(box, {time = 2400, x = circ.x + circ.width\*0.5, y = circ.y + circ.height\*0.5, width = 10, height = 10, transition = easing.outBounce }) transition.to(boxShadow, {time = 2400, width = 10, height = 10, transition = easing.outBounce})

Thanks SonicX278 and hasty for your efforts here - I am going to look at both of these and then work on what I need to do , the object that is “static” where the other lands/falls onto, will eventually be one of many of the same probably in a row going across the screen (probably near the bottom of the screen) and then random objects (mainly an array of images) will fall towards these. So I guess I will need a table to hold the falling objects and a table to hold the “static” objects and then work on some kinda of loop that randomly drops the objects randomly towards those “static” objects and would “stick” to them , then more objects that fall could also land on these as well.

Thanks again
