Not sure if this is the right forum.  If not, please move.

Alright.  I've been working on this project for a while for my flash class.  I've already turned it in but I'm fixing it the way I wanted.

Anyway, my problem is I want a Movie Clip (instance name = menu_txt) to rotate and come to a smooth stop when I click a button (instance name = up_arrow).  It works but only once.



So, basically, I have that image.  I want it to rotate counter-clockwise.  It starts out where it says "Str."  The rotation when I click the up arrow works from 1 to 2 but doesn't from 2-3 3-4.

The code I have set is on the frame on an other layer.

Code: [Select]
up_arrow.onRelease = function() {
if (menu_txt.rotation = 0){
trace(menu_txt.rotation);
menu_txt.rotateTo (-90, 2, "easeOut", 0);
swishSound.start(0, 1);
}else if (menu_txt.rotation = -90){
trace(menu_txt.rotation);
menu_txt.rotateTo (-180, 2, "easeOut", 0);
swishSound.start(0, 1);
}else if (menu_txt.rotation = -190){
trace(menu_txt.rotation);
menu_txt.rotateTo (-270, 2, "easeOut", 0);
swishSound.start(0, 1);
}else if (menu_txt.rotation = -270){
knockSound.start(0, 1);
}
}
Like I said, the first one works but the other 3 don't.  Any ideas.  I can provide more info if need be.

It could automatically be converting that -90 rotation to 270.

I'd probably use a variable to keep track of how many times it's been rotated for when you want it to stop, then just rotate it by it's current rotation - 90.  You should be able to do something like "if (menu_txt.rotation%90==0)" to make sure it isn't between slots before you start rotating it.

I figured it out.

I need to change all the "if (menu_txt.rotation = 0)" to "if (menu_txt.rotation == 0)"

Funny how code works that way.

Ah, yeah, I make that mistake sometimes too.  I usually get a warning from the compiler for it though.
