I wasn't thinking in terms of ActionScript when I wrote that entry, but your looping suggestion is great. <pre><code>follower.onEnterFrame = function():Void { this._x = leader._x; this._y = leader._y; }</code></pre> Lupos,

That’s a cool idea! I wasn’t thinking in terms of ActionScript when I wrote that entry, but your looping suggestion is great.

follower.onEnterFrame = function():Void {
  this._x = leader._x;
  this._y = leader._y;
}

Make a seperate object with the desired motion guide and set it's alpha to 0. Make a function that on enter frame set the position of the mask = to the pos of the guide object. Can also set the rotation each time as well if you need. Same effect but easier to edit, i think. I would have done a tiny bit of code personaly.
