MoveThrough

Introduction

This method creates instructions for moving the argument PositionedObject through a list of points which is created from the list of IPositionables passed as the second argument. This method can be used in combination with the NodeNetwork class to automatically move objects along a path.

Code Example

The following creates five Sprites. The four in the corners represent points that the fifth will move through. Add the following using statements:

using FlatRedBall.Instructions;
using FlatRedBall.Math;

Add the following to Initialize after initializing FlatRedBall:

PositionedObjectList<Sprite> list = new PositionedObjectList<Sprite>();

Sprite sprite = SpriteManager.AddSprite("redball.bmp");
sprite.X = 5;
sprite.Y = 5;
list.Add(sprite);

sprite = SpriteManager.AddSprite("redball.bmp");
sprite.X = -5;
sprite.Y = -5;
list.Add(sprite);

sprite = SpriteManager.AddSprite("redball.bmp");
sprite.X = -5;
sprite.Y = 5;
list.Add(sprite);

sprite = SpriteManager.AddSprite("redball.bmp");
sprite.X = 5;
sprite.Y = -5;
list.Add(sprite);

sprite = SpriteManager.AddSprite("redball.bmp");
float velocity = 3;
InstructionManager.MoveThrough<Sprite>(sprite, list, velocity );
