Having a movieclip go to a point AS

[PhillipHan]

How would I make it where you click a button and move a movieclip to a certain coordinate? and smoothly too?

In pseudo-code:

btn.onbuttonPress {
    move = true;
}
mc.onEnterFrame{
    if(move){
        x += (xpos - x)/10;
        y += (ypos - y)/10;
    }
}

So is this where the movie clip will go from Point A to Point B by clicking button #1 and then clicking button #2 will go from Point B to Point A?

The above pseudo-code is for mc to move from it's current position to (xpos, ypos) when btn is clicked.

Hmm all this time I was trying to use this code but it sort of failed.

var startX = 1200
var endX = 400
var speed = 10
camera._x = startX
function moveMe(targ){
targ._x+=(_root.endX-targ._x)/_root.spee d
}
journey.onRelease = function(){
setInterval(moveMe,30,_root.camera)
}

Actually I'm trying to create a Vcam that will be able to move to four seperate areas with a click of four different buttons.

thats impossible, sorry.

Well I saw this tutorial and on some one website and I forgot the link but it had the same thing where it had a minimap and 4 boxes on it clicking one of them moving the vcam around

Actually what I was trying to achieve was something like this when you click one of the menu buttons it leads to another part http://chroniclesofnever.com/
