ActionScript 1/2 :: Script To Move Playhead Randomly To Frames?
Apr 4, 2010
Is it possible to have a script that sends the playhead to specific frames randomly, wait for say 8 seconds then move on?For example, frames 1-20 will have an image on each frame. I want the playhead to land on those frames in a different order and keep looping.
I have a movie with various movie clips on certain frames. What I want is the playhead to randomly jump to different frames I specify within the movie after each Movie clip has played. So at the end of each movie clip there would be a random script forcing the playhead to play another movie clip randomly. My movie has 100 frames but I only want the random sequence to occur on the following frames 10, 13, 25, 86, 75, 56. Or If I labelled the frames how would I label them?? Would they all have to have the same label, or each label different?
There are 10 frames where playhead travels from frame 2 to frame 11. If I want the playhead to travel randomly in fixed manner such as : frame 2, 4, 6, 9, 10, 3, 5, 7, 8, 11 not using gotoAndPlay, just using script in first frame.
I have a Flash image gallery containing both images and captions fed by an XML sheet. I have an HTML hyperlink in the XML (wrapped in CDATA tags) that I want to control the Flash movie with, i.e. go to frame 70 when link is clicked.
I have simple flash CS4 file (AS3) with a video playback component in a movie clip called "video". The only other thing in this flash movie is a script to load another SWF file as soon as the video is done playing....If I use stop() on the frame with the video - it will play - but then the playhead will not move forward to the next frame which has the next script and if I leave the stop() off - it plays only a a few frames of the video and moves on to the next frame and executes the script that loads the swf file.
Everything I've read requires a button event - and I don't need a button. I just need the video to play - then the next script to execute.Here are the only scripts in the flash movie:
***************************** // in the frame containing video component stop() *********************************** // in the next frame after video component. stop();

I am converting complex animations from vector to bitmap. It is easy to convert them to bitmap when the animations are in the main timeline. However, when there are animations inside animations it all becomes very messy because I need to move all those playheads recursively.
I'm trying to make a simple animated movieclip act as a preloader for a larger website, and have its play reflect the percentage that has been loaded. I've seen a lot of code for various preloaders that involve text or a movieclip being scaled, but not anything regarding controlling the playhead of a movieclip.
This is what I thought would work. PreLoaderMC is the class name of a MovieClip symbol in the .fla's library. I've omitted the Loader stuff [code]...
basically im making a quiz on my main timeline ive got my questions and answers and on the last frame i want it to say how many answers the user got right. ive made a movie clip on this last frame. in the movie clip ive got 11 frames with the posible totals so frame one would be 0/10 frame 2 would be 1/10 etc what i want to do is when the user clicks the correct answer on the other frames i want flash to make the frames within the movie clip to go 1 step forward.
I have a movie clip divided into three scetions. The first section starts on frame 6, the next on frame 11 and the last on frame 16. Is there a way to get flash to choose randomly between only those frames (6,11,16)and not the frames in between(1-5,7-10,12-15)?
however, I've come accross a problem where in for some reason the application will sometimes move frames when I don't want it to. For example, given the code above it would sometimes go to frame 5, but then instantly move somewhere else from there despite the code saying only to do so when a button is pressed.
here is what I am trying to achieve in as3 in as2:
Code: var randomNumber = Math.floor(Math.random()*3) if (randomNumber == 0){ gotoAndPlay(1);
[Code]....
on frame 1, 30 and 60 there is a different animation, with this code at the end of each animation it randomly chooses one of the optional frames to play from.
I'm working with a randomly moving MC, and now it looks good except the collisions with the level. When it hits the level it gonna rotate and go another way. I don't want it go through the walls.
I have movie clips in the timeline and i would like them to move randomly every 10 seconds. by randomly i move, i want each movie clip to move every 10 seconds. So each movie clip will have a movement inside of it by tweening.
so will do something like
mc1.gotoAndPlay(1);
i will create a function to call mc1 and play but i will do this every 10 seconds.
This happends in a *quite heavy* flashproject at work. And what's even more interesting is that it doesn't happend every time. It seem's to be at random. What happends is that text in textfields would move ~1px in X or Y. Have anyone else encountered this?
I thought that it was the layout code that sometimes was updated but no luck with that. And it is not that the text is getting reset either. But it seem's to happend on mouse-input ( press / onRelease ).
This has been tested on different computers and it moved on all, nut in different ways.
i have a movieclip of a butterfly and needs it to move randomly on stage. Also, it should always be facing the side it�s flying at and never fly backwards (if it�s flying from left to right it should be facing right and the other way about)
I've just started playing with flash and I have some basic questions that u might have the answer mm,mm? Im attaching 2 files with this thread: ver1 and ver2.In the flash file (ver1) I'm wondering how u could make the leaves move randomlyIn the flash file (ver2) I tried to make them move randomly (see the actions) but my suggestions are not working...the rendering is complaining about something?
Hi, I am tring to make an object move across the screen randomly..I want it move up-down left or right acording to the values created..for example I want my object move between value (-5 and +5 ) whats wrong with this ? because it always moves downward ???
I've been working endlessly to figure out if there is a method to make an object move randomly. I know there is a way, because I have seen many sites using it. Yet, I am unable to create anything besides specified movement in the x and y values. I can't make anything move randomly.
Kinda of new to all this Flash stuff and need some help working on an animation. I want to have four circles move around the screen randomly. When the user moves his mouse over a circle, I would like it to stop and be bale to use it as a link.
I have used the Flash MX script off the site and can get the circles to move about fine. Just haveing some problems getting them to stop when the mouse is moved over them, and making them into links.
What I have is a ninja star that spins around and moves based on the accelerometer of your phone. I created a balloon popping animation and have it all working well. The problem is that as of right now I can either have it be static and animate once the ninja star hits it, or I can have it randomly move and then play the animation which is not what I want. I want it like this: When the ninja star hits the balloon, the animation of it popping plays. And then once the animation is complete, then I want it to randomly move to a new position on the stage. (so the user can hit it again, and so forth...)
Here is my code so you can all take a look. import flash.sensors.Accelerometer; import flash.events.AccelerometerEvent; import flash.events.Event; var my_acc:Accelerometer = new Accelerometer(); my_acc.setRequestedUpdateInterval(50); [Code] .....
I'm trying to simulate rubber ducks in a bath tub (Don't ask .)I've got 5 mc's on my stage (Each MC is a duck.) And I've been trying to figure out the AS (2.0) to make them all move in random directions around the stage, bouncing off each other and the stage sides.
