Yay! I need help again! This is exciting for me, because it happens so unoften.
Okay, I am using the wiimote object. I would like to get the velocity it is moving at when I spin it in circles, as if I were spinning a lasso type thing. I haven't the slightest clue how to do this. Which is why I posted here. For help, I mean.
This is quite awkward. Maybe if I posted here more often I would be more in practice to make this not sound so, erm, this.
Anyway, help plox.
I don't have much experiance with the WiiMote object, but what do you mean? Do you mean directional velocity? Lateral velocity? Circular velocity?
Hasn't "the slightest clue"
He wants a lasso :)
I want the user to spin the wiimote around like a lasso, and return to me the speed at which they are spinning.
Jacob, again that brings us back to my question:

OK, so all that is is the degrees between the old position degrees and the current position degrees. All you have to do if find the center of the circle and you're good to go. ;)
That sounds difficult.
Quite.
I just looked at the Wiimote Object (which I've never used before in my life) and it seems to have expressions for the X, Y, and Z acceleration. If acceleration, for some reason, means speed, you could use math to find one number from those three that would represent the velocity of the Wiimote. If I'm not mistaken, this expression would work:
Have a nice evening. :grin:Code:Sqr(Sqr((getWiimoteAccelerationX( "Wiimote Object v1.0", -1) pow 2)+(getWiimoteAccelerationY( "Wiimote Object v1.0", -1) pow 2))+(getWiimoteAccelerationZ( "Wiimote Object v1.0", -1) pow 2))
