At the first scene of the game My hero character stands still when he's idle but at the second scene he keeps walking in one spot when he's idle. What's going on? Why are the scenes messing with the hero character?
View 2 Repliesim currently making an "AS3 beat em up" ala streets of rage or double dragon.Currently i have my character moving and a few animations done and i am trying to figure out how to make attacks work.I have some "basic" animation for his attack, but im not sure how to get it to work correctley.What happens is, if you press control (the attack button) whilst the character is walking he just keeps moving and is stopped on the attack frame.I want the character to stop moving if the attack is pressed and once it is released start moving again.
hero.gotoAndStop('still');
var left:Boolean = false;
var right:Boolean = false;[code].......
I would like my character to move as if he was drunk I am unsure how to do that I am using the keyboard for his movement. I also have a character that moves at random I would like the drunk moving character to be able to catch this character and play a scene from within the drunk characters movie clip but I want this character to try and escape the idea is the drunk character gets points for how long he is able to hang on to this character

My question is, how can i block the up and down movement? I tried simply deleting some part of the script to block does movement from the user. But then the script would not work properly : s Here is the uploaded page i'm working on: link.

View 2 RepliesI want to stop the movieclips movement when it hits a wall (another movieclip). The example below works, but after the collision the movieclip 'blocks' all movement to the left...
For now the example with the leftArrow key;

I have a character with multiple animations by way of movieclips, and I'm trying to have it move using the Key.isDown function. Now, my character is moving correctly, but when the key is released, the animation keeps playing. I tried adding a stop command at the end of the walkcycle animation, but that just causes the character to stay frozen on the last frame of the cycle.
Here is the ActionScript Code:
onClipEvent(load) {
var direction = "left";
var speed = 2;
} onClipEvent(enterFrame) {

I need to get my character to follow an moving object. I've got an object that's moving around in different directions and I'm wondering how do I get my character to follow the movements when standing on the object ?
View 0 RepliesI am trying to limit the area in which the character (mcMain) can move I want to be able to keep it in an area (mcBuilding) I also have another area (inwhich the character is not supposed to get to) (mcBackground). (Also I want to be able to to make a dynamic text box that starts at 100 then decreases by 5 when the enemy (mcEnemy) hits mcBuilding and also that it gets removed)

I am trying to learn 3 things.
1. How do I make him be facing left when I push left and facing right when I push to right?
2. How to I restrict him to a certain area of the stage? I am going to have some buildings on the top and I don't want him to be able to walk past the street level. So basically I don't want him to be able to go off the stage or up some to be determined height.
3. When he walks up and touches a door on my stage, I want to jump to another place in the timeline.
I've been struggling with making boundaries with my game. I've managed to make boundaries, but in stead of my game character not moving across that border it just bounces back. Which is not the effect I want.
Here's my code
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
xspeed -= power;
} if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
xspeed += power;

I am currently working on a platformer using accelerometer to move the character and xml to load levels as so..
[as]
level.x += (e.accelerationX*40);
if (e.accelerationX > 5) {
e.accelerationX = 5;
} if (e.accelerationX * 40 < 3 && e.accelerationX * 40 > -3) {
player.gotoAndStop(1);
[Code] .....
And it is all added into one movieclip called level. My problem is when the character hits under a platform it will go up it which I don't want it too, I don't know how to fix it heres the gravity code.
I'm trying to create simple 2D action game, something similar to well known Fancy Pants Adventures :) I've been looking for answer for more than week and all I've found is [URL] which not answers the question. (I've found also moving on platforms that are rotated but that's not I'm looking for). I have also found great (and free!) flash game engine - CitrusEngine which I'm currently using, but, it doesn't provide moving hero along curved terrain. How to make hero moving along curved terrain like this one: [URL]. There are plenty of games like this (for ex. Fancy Pants or Robot Unicorn Attack) where main character moves along the curved terrain but I can't find answer how can I do that.

Since these are ActionScript 2.0 source codes, I think ActionScript 3.0 won't let me use "Key" to identify a pressed key.
I have a 9 frames image of a character.In other language generally i used to make character animation by looping the array consisting of different frames and drawing each frame when pressing key.What i want to do is when i press left or right key, i want to draw each frame that makes character movement and update x coordinates of frames, and it will appear as character is moving.

i was wondering if any of you out there could tell me how it is possible to make a movieclip of a character and when the character is dragged about the screen by the curser, how do you make the characters arms and legs swing about in a realistic fashion.

Each line in the dynamic textbox has 15 characters, and yet you can notice the difference in the length(between each line).

Is it possible to make something like the "Bone tool" does in older Flash CS3?I mean make all limbs for a character and connect them together in the joints, so if I drag the hand, the rest of the arm follows in a natural way. So I can easly make motion tween animations.

View 3 RepliesI have some German content which contains an umlaut (ü). This content is being built into an XML file. I then have a flash file which uses the xml to build a coverflow. My problem is that the 'ü' character is not being displayed in the coverflow. I've made sure the xml is encoded correctly, as you can see from the snippet below:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<artworkinfo>
<albuminfo>
[code]....
As you can see, the umlaut is in the albumName element, but when that text displays it simply misses out the 'ü'. I've added a bunch of encoding groups to the text element in the coverflow file, as well as specifically adding the 'ü' in the 'Include these characters' element. I'm stuck for how to get this to display.
know this._name would grab the instance name, but what about when you have something called mc_1 or mc_2 and so on, if I wanted to grab this last character (1,2,etc) as an integer to put in another variable?
