FULL VIEW OR I WILL ROUND PI up to FIVE!

in #flashers myself and

decided to have a little challenge.

the rules were that we had 30mins to make some flash cursor trail gizmo type thing (basically anything that happend with mouse movement) and I did this... well actually I did this where the trail only ever was one segment long as I hadnt debugged the script when the time hit 0.

though its safe to say even if I had finished and got it to this point I still would have lost, as if you take a look at ~lexus727's piece [link] you will see his rocks the socks...

anyhoo, as there is no symbols I can just put the soucre here for you to play with:



_root.createEmptyMovieClip("theMC",1)

arrayThing = [[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0],[0,0,0]]



for (a=0;a<arrayThing.length;a++){

arrayThing[a][0]=_root._xmouse

arrayThing[a][1]=_root._ymouse

}



onEnterFrame=function(){

_root.theMC.clear()

thewidth=1

for (a=0;a<arrayThing.length;a++){

//move along the array

arrayThing[a][0]=arrayThing[a+1][0]

arrayThing[a][1]=arrayThing[a+1][1]

arrayThing[a][2]=arrayThing[a+1][2]

arrayThing[arrayThing.length-1][0]=_root._xmouse

arrayThing[arrayThing.length-1][1]=_root._ymouse

thecolour="0x"+(random(98)+1)

thecolour=thecolour+(random(98)+1)

thecolour=thecolour+(random(98)+1)

arrayThing[arrayThing.length-1][2]=thecolour

thewidth+=0.75

//draw

if (a>0){

_root.theMC.lineStyle(thewidth,arrayThing[a][2])

_root.theMC.moveTo(arrayThing[a][0],arrayThing[a][1])

_root.theMC.lineTo(arrayThing[a-1][0],arrayThing[a-1][1])

}

}

}
