MC to follow the mouse

[buzza_gts]

How do you make a MC follow the mouse, but only when the mouse is over the MC.
THX:D :D :D

buzza_gts,

Put this on an MC with instance name 'ball' - shoudl work, put the fps to 30.





onClipEvent (enterFrame) {



if(_root.ball.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, True)) {


_root.ball._x = _root.ball._x + (_root._xmouse-_root.ball._x)/10;
_root.ball._y = _root.ball._y + (_root._ymouse-_root.ball._y)/10;


}

}

//the lower the number, in this case /10, the faster the ball reacts to your cursor

Thanks for that, got it working.
Just one more question about this line.

if (_root.ball.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, True))

Is it saying if the x & y of mouse are on ball that equals true, so you could make the hitTest area anouther object and the MC wont move unless the mouse is over that "other" area.

Cheers
