Trouble with line repositioning

Getting Started Newbie Questions
#1

I have a ball similar to the one in SimplePool that has that same function that applies force and draws a line and everything. I made a group that scrolls with the ball, inserted the ball and its surroundings into the group, and tried it out. It all went well except the ball, when it hit a certain thing, was supposed to stop where it was, transition to the thing’s position, and be still. That’s what it did. But now we get to my problem: when I tried to use my line and hit function, the line appeared away from the ball. I tried adding the line into my scrolling group, but it made the line do a weird thing where it was making the line’s ending x and y be away from your touch point. I also tried making a function that updated ‘myX’ and ‘myY’, and then make the line’s beginning point be that instead, but it did the same thing. Help!

I’ve figured out what’s happening: My line is not registering the change of position with the moveCamera function. It’s picking up that my ball is far out of where it really is. How would I get it not to do that? [import]uid: 147322 topic_id: 27866 reply_id: 112796[/import]

Hi Binc,

We’ve noticed you’ve been bumping a lot of your threads repeatedly, often in fairly close intervals.

Although we do our best to help users as much as we can, we cannot provide staff answers to every question (especially outside of the “subscribers only” forums) and there will be situations where you need to seek out an answer yourself using sample code, preexisting threads and the docs.

As I have mentioned in previous threads you will be much more likely to get others willing to spend their time assisting you if you provide a sample that they can run to actually see and work on your problem without the need to only theorize, which many are reluctant to do.

In this case if you do not wish to provide sample code you should refer to here and leave a comment; http://developer.anscamobile.com/code/move-camera (As this seems to be a part of your current problem.)

Again, we’re happy to help as much as we possibly can but endless bumps can come across as demanding and it may dissuade others from jumping in - if you can limit your bumps to a reasonable level and provide sample code it will be much easier for us (fellow developers and staff) to assist you.
