ActionScript 1/2 :: Execute Code In Previous If Statement If Second If Statement Is Executed?
Aug 31, 2011
if (variable == 1){
//code
//Execute this code.
} else if (variable == 2) {
//code
[Code]...
I dont want to copy the code from the first into the second and the first and second into the third.
My mind isn't working and there is probably an extremelly simple way to get this working.
I know I could used functions but for some reason it stops the instance referencing working: _root["bullet"+j] doesnt work in a function.

I have some code on the main time line which basicially just says when this button is pressed go to this frame indicated by the frame label. In this case "answer". This is done inside a movie clip, which isn't on the main time line.

I am developing a small game in flash and decided to use AS3 for it! Now the problem that has happened to me is that the condition within an if statement is executed!!!
Here is my code:
ActionScript Code:
if (y > 850 && splodeCount == 0)
{
play('Sploding');
splodeCount++;
}
Now instead of trying if the conditions (y > 850 && splodeCount == 0) are true it simply follows them as if they were orders. For example it places the object at y 850 and makes the splodeCount 0!

I'm new to AS3 and Flash as a whole, but a decent programmer in Java and C,C#. The problem I have is this: No matter what I do, that "IF" statement ALWAYS executes, even if it shouldn't, and musn't, as said by the trace(isfirst), which outputs a 0, which means the IF is not supposed to execute. AKA: It displays first! and 0 every time it gets to frame 61, thus bringing me to the home page no matter what.

I have some code for validating e-mail data before it is send. I have including code from Bassem Bouguerra www.sub-science.com which uses the WebServiceConnector and deals with imaginary user's emails. The code validates my 3 fields correctly. The problem is that the last if ...statement doesn't execute despite that the data is correct and my ok and result variables are true. It is driving my mental.
stop();
import mx.services.*;
_lv = new LoadVars();

Having a few problems with what I thought was a simple if statement. Here is the code:
[Code]...
I can't quite figure out the small problem with the code. It seems to just bypass the first requirement of the if statement when I do type in the proper input and go straight to the else statement.

The Flash movie contains 2 Text files, one Component button, and 1 component checkbox.The purpose of the application is to load an XML file(works)Populate 2 text fields with information from the XML file(works)Compare the two text fields, if they contain the same information then the checkbox, via AS is told to be selected. (Heres the problem);
Heres the code:
Code:
runCode_btn.onPress = function() {
data_xml = new XML();
data_xml.ignoreWhite = true;
data_xml.onLoad = function(success) {
[code]....
The idea behind this app is that its an electronic form. The user fills it out, the information is then sent to a newly created XML file, months later the open the XML file in flash, and Flash fills out text fields and check and or unchecks Checkboxes based on the XML data.CheckBoxes are mandatory.But I don't see how I'll be able to use them if i can't create and condition statements based on the loaded Data.

what I'm trying to do is create an else if argument for each object in an array based on a user set number
Code:
for(var i:int=0; i < numberOfElseIfs; i++){
GENERATE AS3 CODE
}
to which I want it to GENERATE THE FOLLOWING CODE:
Code:
}else if(baskets[i].used == false){
baskets[i].used = true;
drawButton(i);
}
the problem is obviously that the compiler reads this code rather than understanding I'm trying to regenerate the code within the for loop...does that make sense :S? So basically I need as3 to read the code between the for statement as if it is going to echo that out later. Is this even possible?

I am having a problem with my build. When I add a valid statement to the code it will no longer complie and it fails with errors from an unrelated file.I experience these issues building with ant or building with mxmlc on the command line.Adding a valid statement to an myLittleBox.mxml will cause this error.All the errors are in ViewerMain.mxml.This file is not the main mxml file but it is referenced from the main mxml file.Before changing myLittleBox.mxml ViewerMain.mxml had no compile errors.There are no errors related to myLittleBox.mxml myLittleBox. mxml has no references to ViewerMain and only uses spark components ViewerMain.mxml has no direct references to myLittleBox.mxml. Its children's children's children would have a reference to myLittleBox.mxml.The valid statement added to myLittleBox.mxml could be many things (they all break it) including a comment.[code]
I noticed that the Model was using a constant in Viewer 1.This was causing all of Viewer 1 to be built when Viewer 2 is built.I moved the constant from Viewer 1 to the the Model (where it really should have been anyways) and my project built successfully since Viewer 1 and Viewer 2 were not being built at the same time.It makes sense that this would resolve the issue however this is just resolving a symptom of the issue.I am still very curious what was causing the the compiler to fail on ViewerMain.mxml when I add a comment to myLittleBox.mxml.I guess that it will remain a mystery for now.

I have a script which is giving me a lot of trouble since I have no idea how to write another "if statement" inside another if-else statement. I keep getting errors, I guess I don't know where to put the braces exactly...
example:

Was testing out my movie and using the simulate download option. Bored while waiting I started to resize the movie. Then I got an error about over 256 levels of recursion. Intrigued I tried to simulate the error again. I realized that it would only happen when I resized the movie a bunch while it was doing simulate download. Sometimes I would also get an error "A with action canceled because object didn't exist".
Digging through the code I couldn't figure it out. On the first frame of my movie all I had was a setInterval that changes the loadbar display to show how much is loading. It also tells it to stop(). Once loaded it tells it to gotoAndPlay(5). Frame 5 is where all of my other code is at. This error was happening at Frame 1? Then I remembered I had used "with" in some code to realign stuff on resize. Like:
[Code]....
As soon as I commented out the stagelistener stuff the error stopped. The stage code is on frame 5. It should not start running until the movie has loaded as frame 1 stops the movie until it is loaded. It is running BEFORE the movie is loaded though because I get the "with action" error and the 256 levels of recursion error. If I put a trace in the listener function it doesn't trace back until it is at frame 5, but for some reason part of it still runs. Anyway, sorry for the long explain...just a strange, strange error. Now I don't know what to do about it. I want the stage listener, but I definitely don't want an endless loop or other errors occurring.

Let's say I have some code like this in AS3.[code]The constructor for Thing is going to cause a swf to be rendered onto some movieclip.If the loop is run 10 times or so, most of the time I will only end up with a subset of Things showing up on the clip. I'm guessing this is a problem that flash is having loading a bunch of Things at the same time.I've been able to solve this problem by passing callbacks to the Thing constructor, and only continuing the loop once the previous Thing is completely loaded and calls back.First of all, is this a known problem? Or am I going about this in the wrong way? Secondly, is there any way I can tell flash/as to run this code in a linear fashion without the callbacks? It gets kind of annoying doing this everywhere.So I think richardolsson is right, we must be doing something wrong. To restate the problem, if I try to load multiple swfs onto the stage, even as few as two or three, without waiting for the previous one to finish loading, I will get an unpredictalbe number loaded. For example, running the loop above 10 times, I may end up getting the 2nd, 5th and 10th Things loaded. The others seemingly getting lost in asynchronousity. Flash shows no runtime errors in these situations. So here's the basic idea of how we are doing things.[code]This is the basic scheme. If I try to create a bunch of instances of 'child' WITHOUT waiting for the onLoaded function to finish on the previous 'child', random instances simply won't show up. I wrote the above code very quickly, it is not compy/paste, so ignore simple errors. Are there any glaring reasons why the above method does not work?

The following code works as expected: when a user clicks the button, the installer automatically launches.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"[code]....
I verified that the installApp function is executed.Why doesn't the second piece of code work? Is user interaction required? If so what's a way around this?

I have an issue in which outdated code removed long ago code in an actionscript 2 class sometimes gets executed. I can tell this in that the application fails and trace statements removed long ago gets logged to a console.The closest match I've come across is this post:Flash CS4 refuses to let goHere are the things I've triedI hI have searched an uncompressed debug-enabled version for the trace entry. It is not there.I have decompiled the compiled version and searched that. It is not there.I ave deleted all ASO files and tried to recompile.I have not been able to reliably reproduce the conditions in which the situation arises.I've testet 700 times in a row (yes - sevenhundred times - this is a high profile project) and it would not occur. Then tested another time and it occured. No difference in my approach to testing.I have compiled on another, freshly installed machine. No difference.I have ruled out that it may relate to timestamps since I've tried to compile locally and w/o version control.

I'm trying this:
- create some asset in library, export for as in frame 1
- export an assets.swc, and set the relative library path publish option in othes flas that use assets.swc
- Then, there's a Main.as document class that uses other classes tha use the assets in assets.swc
Problems start when some asset has some code inside. Say, a button with stopped event states. Well, the stop() commands don't get executed, so the buttons are effectively instantiated, but their timeline plays until the end. Probably because they're not initialized in the timeline (being exported in frame 1, so, in fact, before).Usually, without swc, to solve this problem one would put all assets in frame 2 and then check for cuttentFrame == 3 (http:url...). This is what I'd really like to avoid. And from here the question: is that possible? Is there a way (in flash, not flax) to use swc to properly get assets containing some simple code (usually stop commands) in their timeline?

So I've been reading a lot today about the with statement performance, readability and stuff like that but i'm still not sure whether i should or should not use the with statement in AS3.
Using the with statement seems the same as creating local var which would carry the reference.

I am sending my header location to some variables in flash from my php page.For example when i am in the homepage then the header is:
&from=sitemap&product_id=1
What i want to do is tell the flash to go to one frame if it is the homepage and to another for any other value of products_id.What i have in my actionscript is this:
Code:
var prod_num = product_id;
if(prod_num == 1){
gotoAndStop("s1");
} else{
gotoAndStop("s2");
}
It is getting the product_id....but for some reason it always goes to frame name "s2".

ive got an array of cards 2-10 plus jack, queen, king, ace and i'm pulling members from the array at random--in order to score it, i decided to check the first character of the string and see if it returns a number or not.if it's a number, add the number to the score, but if it returns 'NaN' (not a number) then it will just add 10 to the score--so even tho NaN is defined as a variable in flash, somehow my if statement 'char==NaN' isn't working...

I'm using a for-statement to add a series of movieclips.
for (var i:Number = 0; i<10; i++) {
attachMovie("myMC", "myMC"+i, this.getNextHighestDepth());
}
Inside the movieclips I have some code. In this code I need the index-number of the movieclip. I'm staring the code off with: var indexr:Number = _root.i; The for-statement is so fast that all the movieclips get number 9 in the index-variable! Is there any trick to manage this, like can I get the index from the name in some way? Or do I have to work around it in some more or less complicated way?
