Trying to figure out motion paths
Hi All
I'm trying to get a gameboard to work correctly for me (see attached). I have the board built and I want a game piece to move to the different sections included on the game board when they are clicked. I can get the piece to move no problem. What I'm having trouble with is having the piece move to the next section, and picking up its location from where it left off. So, I figured out how to have this work in a very linear fashion, but I'd prefer if it wasn't linear (meaning that users could click one towards the end first, then click one in the middle after that, and so on). Any thoughts on how I could accomplish this?
Hi JakeNield-05895 I think your attachment has failed.
It sounds like you might be stretching the capabilities of the Storyline motion path animations though, as they are not dynamic. For every motion you require, you would have to define a new path for each possible movement. For example, if the motion path you define is move left by 200px. If you play that path again, it will move left by 200px from it's original location and not from the location it ended on.
I think you might need a JavaScript solution, but I'll take a look at your file once you attach it and see if we can avoid JS.
