Because the examples have a lot in common, we will first create a template class (based on the BookTemplateExample), which we can reuse as a starting point for each example.
The template class for this chapter looks like this:
package {
import flash.events.Event;
import org.papervision3d.view.BasicView;
import org.papervision3d.core.geom.Particles;
import org.papervision3d.core.geom.renderables.Particle;
public class ParticleTemplate extends BasicView
{
private var numberOfParticles:uint;
private var easeOut:Number = 0.3
private var reachX:Number = 0.1
private var reachY:Number = 0.1
private var reachZ:Number = 0.5;
public function ParticleTemplate()
{
super(stage.stageWidth,stage.stageHeight);
stage.frameRate = 40;
init();
startRendering();
}
private function init():void
{
//code to be added
numberOfParticles = 1000;
for(var i:uint = 0; i < numberOfParticles; i++)
{
//code to be added
}
}
private function randPos():Number
{
template classcreatingreturnMath...
