Easing/Tweening

Hi,

I'm having an issue with tweening / easing.

I'm using a "grow" block (Actor->Tweening) to dynamically change the size of an actor when the actor is first created.

Grow "self" to ( w 50 h 50 ) over 0 second using none

However, it's making the actor go bezerk. Shaking, jumping up and down, flashing animations on/off etc. Am I doing something wrong or is there another way to achieve the same result?

TY.
BK.

(you can try 0.1 second instead of 0)
Could you post a screenshot ? Normally it should work

Hi,

I tried several time delay variations before posting, no effect.



You can see a video of what happens here - http://plays.tv/video/56326a36acfb02cca4  - (no i am not pressing any keys to make him move).

The weird thing is I am using the EXACT same effect on other actors (enemies) to make them grow to 500% over 2seconds and it works fine. Perhaps something is wrong with the animations/frames?

Indeed it must be the fact that it has plenty of animations . Hmm,  Maybe try this extension http://community.stencyl.com/index.php/topic,34277.0.html to set size.

Scaling Utilities is an essential extension that should be used.

This said, I never had a problem with the grow command which regularly scaled my actors properly. The jerking is probably because of other blocks/scripting. Try to deactivate all behaviors for the actor and just use the grow, it should work. It must be something else.

After far too many hours trying various things, including working on the animations, problem in the end was due to the "Origin Point" :/

Still working out last few kinks in it.

Thanks for the input and the extension link, quite useful.
