[Golist] hydrotween + go vs tweener

I will look into this on my end.

Hi Rumuald,
Is it possible there is a difference in the amount of
change as effected by the ease equation being used? I'm not sure which
equations either package uses.
In your hydroTween you are changing
brightness from 0 to 2 to 0. In the tweener its 0 to 1 to 0. That could
make something appear to jump. I'd be interested to see if there is a
more technical reason or something as simple as pulse rate.

Hi Guys, 

  

I made a small test (file included). I've
already posted it but nobody answered, I renew my test with the last version of
Tweener, Go and Hydrotween. 

  

I'm working on a project and it will use a tweener
for the animations, I won't get stuck with a package, the users will be
able to register the tweener they want to use, probably TweenLite, Tweener and
Go+Hydrotween. 

  

To be honest, after seeing the benchmarks and the
features, I would like to mainly use Go, but here's my problem. 

  

I made a test to compare the reactivity of the
different package. Using Hydrotween and Tweener I animate a simple plane and a
picture with rollover and rollout, I change the properties brightness, scale
and rotate. 

  

Test it by opening the index.html, if you rollover
the sprites, both will work as expected, but if you rollover and rollout very
quickly several times to test the "reactivity of the engine", I can
see that the Tweener one is a lot smoother. 

  

Here are the questions: 

  

1 - Am I doing something wrong in my test? 

2 - Can you see what I mean when I say Tweener is
smoother? 

3 - Is the problem coming from my test? 

4 - Is the problem coming from Go? 

5 - Is the problem coming from Hydrotween? 

6 - Is the problem coming from the easing equation? 

7 - is Hydrotween or Go parsing a big array or
something that might make it less smooth when the engine start again the tween? 

8 - Can I (or we) solve it? 

  

I don't want to shadow Go+Hydrotween at all, I'd
like even to use it full time but I've got to get a good result. Can
you please tell me what you think of that and if there's a solution or if
you're going to have a look? 

  

Thanks for your time.
