Basically I am making a game where the enemy comes after the hero when He is in sight. What I do to achieve this is var distx = hero.px - px; var disty = hero.py - py; moveX += distx * .00005; moveY += disty * .00005; Now I had to multiply it by .00005 because anything higher, makes him come up on the hero pretty quick.

In order to communicate with ActionScript from JavaScript, we have to get a reference to the Flash object within the document the Flash movie is embeded in. It would be like so: function getFlashObject(flashMovieId) { var isIE = navigator.appName.indexOf("Microsoft") != -1; return (isIE) ? window[flashMovieId] : document[flashMovieI...
