Thinking of the position of imaginary vertical and horizontal lines between the elements may be a better approach.

Do you know kinda where to start... I'm trying to figure out how I would program the awareness of the elements. There must be some kind of idle position, and every element needs to know where the mouse cursor is and to know in wich direction to move, and know how big it needs to be according to the mouseposition, and how much space there is inside his 'zone', etc. etc. pfoe -----Original Message----- From: flashcoders-boun...@chattyfig.figleaf.com [mailto:flashcoders-boun...@chattyfig.figleaf.com] On Behalf Of Steve Mathews Sent: Thursday, 12 February 2009 16:50 To: Flash Coders List Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] Advanced Rollover Physics/Math... You could probably pull this off with a physics engine. You could probably do it without also as a entire engine could be overkill.
