What a great application (someone should send it to all our local

officials to play with!)  You could do it in Flash with duplicated

movieclips where you set the x and y properties in loops to get the

right speeds for the cars, but I'd guess that Java (as was used in the

example) would provide more mathematically correct (or precise) results

than Flash, which isn't really math-oriented.  (If someone disagrees,

feel free to speak up--I just find that math things are currently rather

hard to do, especially precisely, in the current version of Flash).


my two cents,

Helen
