Actionscript 3.0 :: Change My Background To Simulate A Different Stage?
May 16, 2009
I'm new to flash in general, and wanted to try making a game using it. It's surprisingly addicting (I've gotten to the point of having an endlessly scrolling background with a moveable ship) but am having some trouble.I am currently making my first flash-based game using actionscript 3.0. However,I've come across a hurdle that I have not overcome: changing stages.I am making a SHMUP (it doesn't look very good, but I'm making it for experience) which has everything going from left-to-right ala R-Type.I have an endlessly looping background, but at the end of the stage I want to change the background, as well as all the enemies (they get upgraded per level) and enemy spawning positions.
how to change my background to simulate a different stage?how to make the new stage's spawn points different from the old one? Do I need to use another .as file for it, or do I just need to modify the code I have

We I have a preloader that plays behind my transparent movie clip and I want to change the stage to black
when I go to Full Screen. From what I have found most people use a black box but that won't scale in FS.
So does anybody have another solution for changing the background color with AS.

I want to program something that does this but I have no idea how to get started or whether it is possible.
1. Using the loader class I will load several images to the stage and set their x / y coordinates accordingly so that they don't overlap.
2. A random x, y coordinate is generated within the document class.
3. If there are any loaders that exist at that location it will be deleted.
If the x, y coordinate was to be generated by a click to the stage, I could do it like this.
Code:
// detect for clicks at the stage level
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, dosomething);
public function dosomething(e:Event) : void
[Code]....
But I want to be able to send a simulated click instead at a certain x y coordinate, and then use the .target to operate on the object that it refers to. Is this possible?

trying to print a movieclip with a white backgroundwhile keeping the stage background black.The movieclip,printResults_mc has a white rectangle in the bottom layer, 850pixels x 1100 pixels. The following function scales printResults_mcto the printers printable area but because isimpossible to predict the aspect ratio of the printable area someblack background always leaks out. I tried making the whitebackground 20 pixels larger than I need (870 x 1120) and thensetting a crop rectangle in addPage of (10,10,850,1100), no luck,the black stage background just fills in the area outside the crop.A simple solution would be to temporarily set the stage backgroundcolor property to white, print, then set it back to black, but I

I've been working on a project that requires lots of scaling around a center point.
I always thought that stage.stageWidth and stage.stageHeight give you the dimensions of the stage you set in the properties panel no matter what. But when I went into fullscreen mode (with scaling), both the width and the height changed to the dimensions of the screen rather than staying the dimensions I specified.

I have a moving vehicle on the stage, which should change directions according to where I click on the stage.I already made it work using this formula:var angle:Number = Math.atan2(dy,dx)*180/Math.PI+90;However, I need the car to tween to the correct angle, instead of just "jumping" to it. While this is easy enough to do, the car sometimes takes the longer turn (especially when I click in the bottom-left quarter of the stage), and it seems unnatural.

I am wondering if there is an easy way to allow the user to change the background image on the stage by clicking a button. I have several different background images (they are just different colors, each on its own layer) and I want to have small buttons of each color that can be clicked to change the background to that color.

I am attempting to change the background of a pre-developed slide show a client sent over. In the attachment the original background is gray (called "back"). I want to change it to the background called "bluebg". It works (somewhat) when I import it to the same layer that the gray background is on and convert it to a movie clip, but it covers up the navigational buttons on the top right side of the movie. It appears that these pieces are a part of the background and not on their own layer, but they are clearly flash elements required to make the show work properly, so I am unable to replace the background with the blue and keep those navigational items. Can someone take a look and tell me what I could be doing wrong? Or better yet what I can do to achieve the feat of apply the new blue background?

Here is my ongoing portfolio. Only the CONTACT and CHINATOWN is functional at the moment. You see when you click between the two how the background on the .SWF changes and not the HTML? How do I make that change as well? I don't want to make a huge movie.

I created a flash application which loads in many other little flash applications (.swf files) based on menu selections. When I change one of the little applications the changes are viewable except when I change the background color.
After the first time I view the application, the background color changes do not carry over to the main app. I run the little ones stand alone and they show the new color, then I run the main app and any other changes I have made are there but not the color change. When I remove the file and the load fails, the old backround color still displays in the container movie clip the .swf was previously loaded into.
I have tried several different options and the only thing that worked was renaming and copying and deleting and making a big mess. There has to be a way to force a refresh of this mysteriously saved color. doesn't there?

this is a movieClip with a textField placed over it. I would like to change the movie clips color when clicked, but not the text color.
var myColorTransform = new ColorTransform();
myColorTransform.color = 0xFFFFFF;
mc.transform.colorTransform = myColorTransform;
When I try the code above it changes the whole movie clip color, text included. Is there a way to just change the background movieclip color and keep the text un changed?

I finaly got the code I needed to change the colour of my background but it clearly needs altering. At the moment it works but I have to click the button twice for the colour to change. Now for once I see that this makes sense because I have onRelease twice!
This code is on the button:
on (release) {
home_btn.onRelease = function() {
var myColor:Color = new Color (this._root.background1);
myColor.setRGB(0xFF8844);}
However i'm unsure how to alter the code correctly....I assume the second onRelease needs to change to something else? I tried just: home_btn = function() { but am really just guessing.

I'm trying to find out if there is a way to get an animation to stream in the background and not reset or change when there is a frame jump or scene change. I just want it to become the permanent background.Kind of the way a sound can be set to loop and stream non-stop so long as you don't go back to the frame in which the sound started.

I have the following package[code]...
1. The class instantiates and adds a number as text on top of the image that I created the MovieClip class from
2. As the main class of the fla rotates images it calls the loadItem() function of each corresponding button.
3. That function starts the timer and, on each tick of the timer, the background image changes.
What is happening right now with this code is that the new image (that I want to be the background image behind the text) is coming in on top of the text.
Is there a way to simply replace the image currently loaded into the MovieClip.
