movie clip face mouse

[ConnorProgrammer]

can someone help me find the code so that when i move my mouse my movieclip faces it ?

Use the atan2 function, which finds the angle based on the x and y difference between two points.

// mc is the name of the movie clip
function onEnterFrame(){
xdiff = _xmouse - mx._x; // Horisontal distance
ydiff = _ymouse - mc._y; // Vertical distance
angle = Math.atan2(ydiff, xdiff)/Math.PI*180; // Finds the angle in radians, which is converted to degrees.=
mc._rotation = angle;
}

Put it in the main frame's actions.

[zuperxtreme]

myMC._rotation = Math.atan2((_ymouse-myMC._Y),(_xmouse-my Mc._X))

Do that onEnterFrame or onMouseMove.

I recommend onEnterFrame, though.
