Suppose you have a round based RPG type game. The player issues directives to his units, your enemy AI issues directives to its units. The problem is that the functions for those directives then have to be executed in a specific order with no relation to the order they were input in and all at the same time with the push of one button.
I just need a little direction here, I just spent the last fifteen minutes searching "AS3 Array of Functions" before figuring out that maybe that's not the way you do it in AS3.
Essentially, I'm looking for the way to store functions, put them in a list to be sorted in a specific order and then execute them in said order.

View 7 RepliesIs it possible to pull a function (and run it) from an xml attribute?I have a dynamic xml menu with lots of buttons and sub buttons
Code:
function subButtnClick(........
if(String(_xml.item[_off.parent.id].subitem[_subOff.parent.id].@fn) != ""){
trace(String(_xml.item[_off.parent.id].subitem[_subOff.parent.id].@fn)); //returns the fn attribute - in this case, "aboutUs()" - when the "about Us" sub button is clicked.
}
How can I take that string value of "aboutUs()" and make it run as an actual function within that same if statement?What I'd love to do is place a boat load of functions that each allow me to manipulate the stage in different ways - creating different page looks - on a separate imported "menuFunctions.as". Each menu button click returns the "fn" xml attribute which is then magically run as a particular function from menuFunctions.as, finally then, manipulating the main stage.
There are several built-in callback functions in Flash, all of them very useful because they are monitoring events and immediately execute actions. They made us economy in code writings. Unfortunately, there's not enough callback functions that fulfill our particular requirements. For example, there's not such a MovieClip.onFrameReached(n) function, that makes something when the movie clip reaches the frame number n. I must appeal to setInterval function to monitor when the movie clip reach the frame n. I try to avoid using that because I believe it is resource consuming. In ActionScript 2.0, can you create your own callback functions or methods? think about what useful a function I described would be when you work with external swf's in order to synchronize it with other objects.

I was wondering where the best place to put helper methods is. I need these to be methods I can use outside of the singleton enforced class. Would it make sense to put it in Global Constants? The only thing against that, is I always use EditorGlobalConstants the same way: EditorGlobalConstants.SUPPORT_PHONE An example of a 'helper function' is the following:

View 1 RepliesHow do I move / create a button that functions inside a movie clip?I have been creating a quasi-simple website following the tutorial provided by Lynda.com. Using I have created a functional site in which the buttons work so long as they are part of the main timeline. However if I take this functional button and drop it into a movie clip I've created, it ceases to function. Drag it back out of the movie clip and it starts working again. I am sure it's an action script coding problem on my end.[code]

I have 8 thumbnails (thumb_01, thumb_02 etc)I want, when the photo album opens up, the thumbnails to appear with a Interval of .7 seconds and to rescale them from width and height 0, to width and height 80, with an elastic movement at the end ( maybe that they get a little bigger before they reach their final width and height. I have the following functions:

Code:
function showClips() {

My problem is this: I miss the elastic movement in the scale function and I really don't know how to combine these two functions.

I've been looking for a tutorial to create a timeline scrubber (not animating specific movie clips, but actually a scrubber that can move along different keyframes of a timeline that has a series of images on it).I found a bunch of these (scrubber controlling specific movie clips): http:[url]....but nothing that allows you to just scrub back and forth on the whole timeline in the exported swf.
View 3 RepliesI've created next/back buttons to navigate to various frame labels on the timeline. There is a "main menu" frame that contains menu buttons to take the user to other frame labels on the timeline. However this "main menu" frame has an FLV playing and needs to be "stopped" when navigating to another frame label. I have the code for this.
What I am inquiring about is this:Do I need to create an "if statement" in the next/back button code telling Flash that if the user clicks on the next/back button while on the "main menu" frame, to stop the FLV also?
I have a Flash website with 3 interfaces( 3 frames with movie clips inside). they have a button that goes to different loaded .html page(text). But once the back button is pushed on the web browser, it always goes back to the first frame instead of the actual last page, which might have been frame 2 or 3.
