Actionscript floating effect

[alan_bourne]

Hi i was wondering if anyone has a neat piece of actionscript that give the illusion that something is floating?


It needs to move left and right and up and down but always stay in the same spot..... if you get me.

I found a nice pice that uses the follwoing code but it eventually the objects fly away...

onClipEvent(load){
var my_x:Number = 0;
var my_y:Number = 0;
}

onClipEvent(enterframe){
my_x += 0.1;
my_y += 0.1;

this._x =this._x +Math.sin(my_x);
this._y =this._y +Math.cos(my_y);
}

This bobblehead code might help you out. Just set the decay to 1.

Hi,

Thankx for this code,

Ive used the code

onClipEvent(load){
var my_x:Number = 0;
var my_y:Number = 0;
}

onClipEvent(enterframe){
my_x += 0.0;
my_y += .15;

this._x =this._x +Math.sin(my_x);
this._y =this._y +Math.cos(my_y);
}

but i want to offset the two objects and control speed and distance moved.
could you please suggest some additions
