Forums » Help » Roate an entity

Hi everyone!

I have a strange problem with one entity. The intention of the script is to rotate the entity and face it to one point defined by the mouse when the user clicks on the screen.

The entity rotates, but it doesn't stop when it reaches the angle.

This is the code:

EntityPlayer = ig.Entity.extend({
	
	size: {x: 66, y: 31},
	animSheet: new ig.AnimationSheet( 'media/T72.png', 66, 31 ),

	init: function( x, y, settings ) {
		this.parent( x, y, settings );
		x = 0;
		y = 0;
		angle = 0;
		clicked = false;
		
		this.addAnim( 'idle', 1, [0] );
	},
	
	update: function(  ) {
		if( ig.input.pressed( 'click' ) && clicked == false ){
			clicked = true;
			x = this.pos.x;
			y = this.pos.y;
			mx = ig.input.mouse.x;
			my = ig.input.mouse.y;
			angle = Math.acos((x-mx)/(Math.sqrt((x-mx)*(x-mx) + (y-my)*(y-my))));
		}
		if( (Math.abs(this.currentAnim.angle) < (Math.abs(angle + 0.1))) && (Math.abs(this.currentAnim.angle > (Math.abs(angle - 0.1)))) && (clicked == true)){
			this.anims.idle.angle = angle;
			clicked = false;
		}
		else if ( clicked == true ){
			this.anims.idle.angle  = this.currentAnim.angle - 0.01;
			document.writeln(' # object: ', Math.abs(this.currentAnim.angle), ', angle: ', Math.abs(angle), ', clicked: ', clicked);
		}
		else {
			clicked = false;
		}
	}
});

Can anyone help me?

Thanks in advance!

This line may be the issue (not tested just a quick look at the above code)

 if( (Math.abs(this.currentAnim.angle) < (Math.abs(angle + 0.1))) && (Math.abs(this.currentAnim.angle) > (Math.abs(angle - 0.1))) && (clicked == true)){ 

check the bracket change on 2nd angle test .

Yes!!!!!! That's it! At last I found the error. Thank you very much!
