how do you use system|math|exponent?

x to the y power

exp() ?

where do I put the x and the y?

I don't know what purpose that serves. You can do exponents using the "^" symbol, like this: x^y

Yup, x^y. Exp is the inverse of ln (logarithm with base e). See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_function

thanks guys!

this was getting a little cumbersome:

sqrt((Sprite3[Physics].VelocityX*Sprite3[Physics].VelocityX)-

(Sprite3[Physics].VelocityY*Sprite3[Physics].VelocityY))

Or use distance(0, 0, Sprite3[Physics].VelocityX, Sprite3[Physics].VelocityY)

Or use distance(0, 0, Sprite3[Physics].VelocityX, Sprite3[Physics].VelocityY)

I was looking for a distance function. can't believe I didn't see that the first time. at least now I now how to do exponents, too

thanks again ash

Hehe, you ask one question, you learn many things!
