Flash MX Script Help

• autonoma

  I'm trying to move an MC to a certain point with a button using the following code:

  speed = 5;
  function boxOneMoveTo() {
  boxOne._y -= (boxOne._y-boxOneY)/speed;
  if (boxOne._y == boxOneY) {
  delete this.onEnterFrame;
  }
  }
  buttonOne.onRelease = function () {
  boxOneY = 90;
  boxOne.onEnterFrame = boxOneMoveTo;
  }

  The problem I'm having is, apparently, boxOne never lands EXACTLY on 90, so that if statement is never fulfilled. I want to determine when boxOne lands where it's supposed to so I can kill that onEnterFrame loop. I don't want scripts looping all over the place.

  How can I tell Flash to delete that onEnterFrame when boxOne gets, say, within .5 pixels of it's destination? Or, better yet, how can I force it to land EXACTLY on 90?

  Instead of:

  boxOne._y -= (boxOne._y-boxOneY)/speed

  make yourself a var:

  var diff = boxOne._y-boxOneY;

  then go:

  boxOne._y -= diff/speed;
  if(diff <= 0.5){etc...}

  make sense?
