ActionScript 2.0 :: Detection Of Mouse Movement Distance

Aug 12, 2009

I am wondering if anyone can share with a good example on how to detect the distance of the mouse movement in a certain time. I'd like to be able to calculate the distance the mouse was moved from one point to another in certain time (one second) and compare these values.

ActionScript 2.0 :: [FlashCS3] Distance Detection To Set Depth Of Movieclips

Jul 5, 2010

I am working on a game engine that works like an overhead RPG, but the terrain is drawn at an angle with the characters at the same angle to give the illusion of a 3D world. the problem I am running into is that, while I can get the character to move perfectly fine on the ground, I need to be able to set the character to go behind or above certain objects depending where he is.

The best example of what I am trying to accomplish is from Gaia's MMO.

[URL]

As you can see in the first frame of the image, the character is in front of the bush, but behind the lamppost. In the second frame he is both behind the lamppost and bush. In the last frame, he is in front of both the lamppost and bush. during all of this though the bush and Lamppost never change position with the terrain or each other.

Basically, I have come to the conclusion that I believe the way this RPG is able to do this is through distance detection and depth swaps.

ex. if distance is above 0 character is above object. if distance is below 0, character is below object.

The main I would like to accomplish with this is the character, enemies, and NPC's are the only thing that changes depth. why? If an enemy is following and is on a different depth then the character, possibly higher or lower then the object, it could appear above or below the object while the character is the opposite.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Limiting Movement Distance Of A MC?

Jan 1, 2010

Currently the images scroll infinitely in either direction. Is there anyway to restrict their movements?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Flowing Mc Movement Opposite Of Mouse Movement

Feb 12, 2003

I have a mc (fStrip) which looks like a piece of filmstrip with thumbnail images in it. I want this mc to move when the users mouse is positioned over it, but I only want it to move only along it's x-axis and in a direction opposite that of the mouse. And I want it to move or flow smoothly.

I've been trying to figure this out (see my lame attempt below) but without much luck.

onClipEvent (mouseMove) {
buffer=20 //movement buffer
mousePos=_root.fStrip._xmouse //store mouse position
if (mymouse!=_root.fStrip._xmouse){ //if the mouse has moved

Professional :: Auto-Hide On Mouse Movement Rather Than Mouse Over?

Apr 12, 2010

Im looking for a quick solution (if its out there) using the autohide feature using the FLV Playback Component. 

Current situation: Using ActionScript 2. The FLV component fills the stage. Autohide is set to true.

It looks to me that since the video fills the stage, the skin will not hide. What I would like to do is have the skin fade out if the mouse doesnt move for a certain period of time.

Professional :: Mouse Zone Detection?

Mar 25, 2010

1- i have a circular menu, with a zoom effect when you hover on it, with the home button in the center, when you click the home button you load the page then reload the scene 1 ( menu idle ).If i put nothing on the button itself on the scene 1, before the zoom effect, i need to move out of the button to trigger the other scritp there that detect the rollover and start the zoom in.i want to have a special behavior for the home button on the idle state of the menu ( scene 1 ) , When you click the home button from anywhere else, you load back the page, then because the mouse is already on the home button, i want flash to do nothing, but at the second you start to move the mouse again ( remember you are still on the home button) i want it to start teh zoom effect again, not before.

Right now, it is either no zoom effect as soon the mouse is on top of it, or imediatly zoom in with the rollover....And i know it is possible with a very simple command, but i forgot it... i did it before.2- for the same menu, i will have a sub-menu unfolding when you click a certain button, that sub-menu is outside the main menu detection zone. Is it possible to make a shape, turn the alpha at 0, put it under the sub-menu, and use it as detection zone

ActionScript 3.0 :: Remove Mouse-detection From A MC?

I have movieclip working as button. On mouserollover it scales up a square MC. The problem is that this square will cover other buttons when completely scaled up, and the buttons below that won't "work"When going with mouse from button 1 to 3 it works ok, but from 3 to 1 one then the "top-stacked" button will prevent lower buttons from working properly.As you can see I tried

sq.mouseEnabled = false;
sq.mouseChildren = false;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Mouse Movieclip Detection?

Apr 8, 2011

when you have two movieclips and the bounding box of one movieclip is over top of the movieclip below, how do you detect that the mouse is over the bottom movieclip, and ignore the alpha of the upper movieclip.I tried mouseEnabled = true, I tried mouseChildren = true...I can't seem to make the movieclip that is underneath of the bounding box of the upper clip respond to the mouse.

here's a method I put together to tell me what is underneath of the mouse.When I run this, the movieclip on top has its bounding box overlaying another movieclip...the bounding box meaning, and the transparent area of the top movieclips bounding box.This method returns both images when I'm over the bounding box of the top movieclip, yet I'm only over the lower movieclips actual image shape.

I just want to be able to drag that lower movieclip, and write a function that only returns that lower movieclip under it if I'm only on top of the lower movieclip.

var previousOUM:String = "";
function listObjectsUnderMouse(event:Event):void
{
var pointoint = new Point(mouseX, mouseY);

ActionScript 3.0 :: Get The Distance Between 2 3D Objects By Using Distance Method

In AS3 I am trying to get the distance between 2 3D objects by using distance method.
  
if(Vector3D.distance(model.position,model2.position) < 100)
{
// do something

[Code]....
 
>>You can use it directly as a method of the Vector3D class to get the Euclidean distance between two three-dimensional points.
 
Which point does this method pick? Is it the closest point to the other object ?
 
I am just thinking of how much time this would take in testing objects with large poly count.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Mouse Follow With Collision Detection

Feb 27, 2006

I have a boat which will follow my mouse, which I have got working via the tutorial situated at: [URL]

That's easy enough.

My problem is not making the boat stop if it collides with another movie. You can view what I currently have here:

[URL]

If you look at this movie you will see the boat following your mouse, and I've inserted a basic island on to the stage. What I want to happen is that if the boat touches the island, it stops. so for example if you were moving your mouse right to left across the island, the boat would stop on the right hand side of the island, but if you moved your mouse back to the right, it would move away from the island and follow your mouse.

I'm not too bothered about it detecting certain areas of the boat, the center point is fine.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Mouse Cords Detection Without OnClipEvent?

Jun 21, 2006

I have an application where I need to detect if the mouse is less than 200 px from the left sie of the screen, then play an animation... Once the mouse is moved back out of the 200 px area I want the animation to reverse.I'm using the Tween Class for animation and have been messing around with onclipevents with no luck like:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if(_xmouse <= 200)
{
_root.theSwitch = "on";

[code]....

This will obviously produce a million "on" traces when the mouse is over there - what is the best method for detecting the change once, setting a variable, then playing the animation?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Image Gallery Mouse Detection

Sep 9, 2011

I have an image gallery thats a group of links that plays on a timeline. It scrolls and repeats, giving a smooth continuity. I've set up and ENTER_FRAME event to a listener of the stage, a Boolean variable based on mouseY conditionals for true and false, and passed a true value to mouseX conditionals that controls the timeline with prevFrame() and nextFrame() methods.

All is fine in the original swf, but once I load it into my flash page those mouseX and mouseY values no longer represent the stage upon which the swf was originally created, that stage doesn't exist. Instead its new parents stage has spanned those parameters far across the page, even making it possible to control playback outside of the page itself. How can I either separate the swf's stage from its parent or re-establish the parameters I had originally set for it?

This is the code for both, First is the Flash Page, the SWF in question is highlighted,

Code:

var swfRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("NewsandLinks.swf");
var swfLoader:Loader = new Loader();
swfLoader.load(swfRequest);
