For those who like to play, paste the following starter script into a button:
constant cStar = "grc runningStar" local aPoints,runState,Cp
on mouseUp
if runstate = 0 then set the label of me to "Stop Running"
else set the label of me to ""
if runstate <> 0 then
stopLines
exit to top
end if
if there is no grp "runningStar" then goCreateSome
put the right of me + 20,item 2 of the loc of me into CP
put 9 into runState
delete var aPoints
prepArray 11,7
startLines
runLines
end mouseUpon stopLines
repeat with i = 7 down to 1
put cStar & i into tStar
hide tSTar
wait 50 millisecs
end repeat
put 0 into runState
end stopLineson startLines
repeat with i = 7 down to 1
put cStar & i into tStar
put runstate - i + 1 into x
if x <= 0 then add 12 to x
set the points of tSTar to aPoints[x]
show tSTar
wait 70 millisecs
end repeat
end startLineson runLines
if runState <> 0 then
repeat with i = 1 to 7
put cStar & i into tStar
put runstate - i + 1 into x
if x <= 0 then add 12 to x
set the points of tSTar to aPoints[x]
end repeat
if runstate = 12 then put 1 into runstate
else add 1 to runState
send "runLines" to me in 70 millisecs
end if
end runLineson prepArray tG,tK
put item 1 of Cp into tX
put item 2 of Cp into tY
put (2 * pi / 12) into sRad
repeat with i = 1 to 12
put trunc(tG * cos (sRad * i)) + tX into a
put trunc(tG * sin (sRad * i)) + tY into b
put trunc(tK * cos (sRad * i)) + tX into c
put trunc(tK * sin (sRad * i)) + tY into d
put a,b & cr & c,d into aPoints[i]
end repeat
end prepArray### for those who like 1 liners,
###beware of the linewrap
put trunc(tG * cos (sRad * i)) + tX,trunc(tG * sin (sRad * i)) + tY & cr & trunc(tK * cos (sRad * i)) + tX,trunc(tK * sin (sRad * i)) + tY into aPoints[i]
