ActionScript 2.0 :: Collision And Animation - Character Is Stopped Immediately When Touching (hitTest) The Platform?
Jun 14, 2010
Important: ActionScript 2.0Flash CS3I have some knowledge in Java and C++ which makes this easier... Im trying to make a game and the collision *** does not stop the character in its spot... if i set _y to 0 then it would go to the top of the screen... if i set _y to -1 each frame that the hitTest is active then the character goes through the platform and the rises by -1 (1 up) _y .... how can i make it so the character is stopped immediatly when touching (hitTest) the platform?
whenever I start my game my character just falls through the platform. No Compiler errors are appearing, and there's nothing in the outbox. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with my character not knowing that it must land on the platforms, but how would I write that?
I m under the process to create a platform based game,but stuck in a problem ,its probably concern with x-axis, actually my player stops certain distance before right wall and with left wall too,i tried to reduce the distance but end up in failure,i have attached the concern fla.
I am trying to write a class that will hittest for my mouse touching a menu. The class is attached to the linkage of the actual menu MC. I can't seem to get a hit, I think, what am I doing wrong?
I am trying to make a character jump on to a platform this is my code. The block1, block2 etc are the blocks that I want my character to jump on
PHP Code: var onBlock:Boolean; var blockHolder:Array = new ArrayblockHolder.push(block1) blockHolder.push(block2) blockHolder.push(block3) stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, checkBlock) [Code] ....
The onBlock boolean is used later but my problem is that the code doesn't work.
I want to create movement in a movieclip when an arrow key is pressed. I want the movieclip to start moving and not stop until a hitTest recognizes a collision with another object and then tells it to stop. I want the key to only have to be pressed once to start movement and not have to stayed pressed down. How would I do this?
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've found the BitmapData.hitTest() function very handy, but limited for my purposes. I need to figure out at exactly which point the two images collide (in any coords system,really), since their behaviour will change depending on the angle of the surface hit
I'm trying to create an animated 'LED style' display. I want to draw/tween/type shapes or text and have the 'LED dots' detect the animation and turn on the relevant dots.'ve been testing the hittests but it slows down pretty quickly and the problem with the hitTestObject is that it obviously just detects the bounding box, NOT the vectors.
I'm try to make the Collision Detected with hitTest for long time but it doesn't work. I have two objecct one is the Spaceship and rock. When those two hit each other. I want it to show text "Collision DetectedFrame1 script
var rockCount = 0; var rockTimeGap = 1; var nextRockTime = 0;
I have two png files, a circle and a maze. Basically the maze is a square with some paths carved through it. I want to draw these images, move the circle to the mouse coordinates, and have a text say 'hit' when the circle intersects a wall of the maze and 'miss' when it doesn't. Now I want to do these using the bitmapdata.hittest method. The circle is a 32x32 image and the maze is a 256*256 image. I've gotten everything set up and everything draws on the screen correctly but I can't get the actual collision detection part of it to work, that is it always displays 'miss' rather than 'hit' even when the circle clearly intersects the maze.[code]
I'm try to make the Collision Detected with hitTest for long time but it doesn't work. I have two objecct one is the Spaceship and rock. When those two hit each other. I want it to show text "Collision Detected" This is my script
Frame1 script var rockCount = 0; var rockTimeGap = 1; var nextRockTime = 0; var startTime = getTimer();
I want to the badguy plane to hit the player's plane and take a subtraction from the player's heath. I've fiddled around with using "this" instead of the full path of the playerMC - no success. My hitTest is working fine for the bullets!
For some reason my hitTest in the following function is not working. With each onEnterFrame of the mc being "fired", I am checking to see if it is touching one of the "clouds" I have floating by. My traces tell me that I am targeting everything correctly, but for some reason, hitTest never returns true. Even when I see the mcs colliding. The "clouds" are dynamically attached and pushed into an array (cloudsArr) The clouds and the "fire" mcs are on differnent timelines, but should that matter if I am targeting them correctly?
Does anyone know how to use hitTest with two movieclips so that it would detectthe collision of the visible part of the MC, not the **** bounding box???
Right now I'm working on an advanced hitTesting engine, and What I'm trying to do here is create an engine that will detect collision with one object instead of two. That basically means that if any other objects touch this movie clip, the hitTest will return True. Right now the .fla containing the engine has nothing but a circle that can be moved using arrow keys and 8 squares that disappear when touched by the circle. Obviously, I could do something like:
if (circle.hitTest(square1)) { do so and so } else if (circle.hitTest(square2)) { do this and that } etc...
But that would be too long, since the engine has to be able to contain 100 squares without too much change in the code.
I'm actually working on a multiple collision detection in actionscript 3.0, using pixel collision for a game for my assignment, where an enemy patrols around and searching for the hero. So, i draw a line between the enemy and the hero, to check whether there's some collision happened between those two. if the line colllides with an obstacle such as wall, door, etc. enemy will not be able to see the hero. When i tried a single line collision with a wall (one object only) it works perfectly.
But here's the problem. For the multiple objects collision (several walls and doors included), i added those objects in an arraylist, When i used for loop to check the collision between the line and those objects in the arraylist, none seems to react , except the first object in the arraylist or index 0.
Is there any simpler way to do the multiple collision detection?
how i can get these lasers to work in the correct manner. For some reason, 2-3 seconds in the game, the game goes to the next frame. I can't get the second player's fire to stick with him as he travels across the screen. Here's the fla.
I have a character, he stays in the center whilst the surroundings move instead (scrolling). There is a block and when you walk into it, I need it so you cannot walk through it or get stuck in it. Here is my code below but, its very buggy, this is obviously been done before and may be simple, once I learn it I wont need to ask again. Iv tried other things but they dont work.[code]
I'm new to flash, knowing only a couple of commands such as stop(); and gotoAndPlay.
I'm creating a UI menu for the beginning of a flash project. On a few layers, I have objects and buttons while the "stop();" command is applied to the frame to keep them on the screen as a Title screen or menu-like idea.
My problem is that I would like a animation, or a movie clip, or something that is looping in the background for a more detailed menu screen.. However, I can't figure out how to run the animation while the current frame is stopped.
am pretty new to Kirupa and Flash. I have a little problem, concerning a character hitting a wall. What i have: a char that can jump and move around by the arrow keys. What i need: character shall stop movement if he hits a geometry. But being able to start movement again, besides through the geometry. I'd like to reach this with gskinners CheckForCollision class. Have a look here: [URl] But i didnt manage my code to get it work. So maybe you could leak me some information on how to get this done. Heres my code so far:
[Code]...
edit admits: so far i have a character mc called "player" and one called "level". i would apply the code to the player, and it would be cool to have the possibility to check collision of the player with multiple MCs, not only the level.
I am currently making a platformer game and I want to make a hitTest script that makes a character that touches a few spikes teleports to a position on the map.
how to use the bitmapData collision method. Now I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to see at what angle or coordinate of the bitmapData the collision happens? I need it in order to figure the accurate bounce angle after the collision occurs.
I am making a platformer and i got two problems with the hero.The hero is controlled with the following script.
code: onClipEvent (load) { var ground:MovieClip = _root.ground; var grav:Number = 0; var gravity:Number = 2;[code].....
1. I can't seem to figure out how to set the "hero" movieclip to the frame named "nothing" when none of the keys that control the hero are pressed. (so the hero is doing nothing). When the hero stands still, it will still appear like he is walking or jumping (whatever has been done last)How do i tell Flash that something must happen when none of a certain group of keys are pressed?
2.When you jump, the "jump" frame of the hero is shown. But as soon as you move right or left while jumping, the "right" or "left" walk frames are shown. How do i tell flash to not show the "right" or "left" frames after pressing the jump key until the hero lands back on the ground? The instance of the ground is "ground".
I need a little help to complete the hitTest for my animation sequence. Please see the orange section of my code:
Code: stop(); var myLoader03:Loader=new Loader (); temperature_small.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,dragTemperature); function dragTemperature(myevent:MouseEvent):void {
[code]....
As you can see (hopefully), I need the movieclip to be released by stopDrag and it must also overlap with the CH1_btn button before the URLRequest can proceed. But what I'm getting now is the mouse loses control of the temperature_small movieclip when it contacts the CH1_btn (I keep moving the mouse around, but the movieclip remains stuck with the CH1_btn button). The trace didn't work and the URLRequest didn't proceed as well.
I have a character that is moving left and right across the screen. When it does there is a running animation that takes place from the idle animation to running, that part work but it does not go back to the idle animation when you release the left or right button.
im having a little issue with my character animation when i use the arrow keys to move him. everything works but the fact that the "Running" animation wont stop. i tryed i few things and i only end up breaking the code.
if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) { this.gotoAndStop(2); _x += speed;
