I am trying to develop a program which attaches movieclips randomly around a point. The attached movieclips should not overlap each other.
View 2 Repliesi'm using Mx Flash and i am making a game. it is called "falldown". the 'ledges' that you run into as you are falling down need to go up. i have the mc that moves up and all, but there needs to be three of them that move up to keep you from hitting the bottom. i need it to randomly pick from the three mcs as the first one reaches a certain point. in case you don't understand ask questions and i am going to post the .fla when i get on my own comp.

View 2 RepliesI have a column of objects down the center of the stage and I need them to randomly point either to the left or the right. They have been placed using a for loop so I can't point each one individually. I was told I could use Math.random to flip their scaleX position but I can't get it to work.
View 4 RepliesI'm trying to fade in and out some movie clips using the Tween class, but am having problems. I have the following code which fades in my movie clips:
Code:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
// Fade in and out
var myTween1:Tween = new Tween(wds_mt, "alpha", Regular.easeIn, 0, 0.5, 100, false);
var myTween2:Tween = new Tween(wds_sf, "alpha", Regular.easeIn, 0, 0.5, 150, false);
var myTween3:Tween = new Tween(wds_hush, "alpha", Regular.easeIn, 0, 0.5, 120, false);
var myTween4:Tween = new Tween(wds_10, "alpha", Regular.easeIn, 0, 0.5, 300, false);
var myTween5:Tween = new Tween(wds_uf, "alpha", Regular.easeIn, 0, 0.5, 210, false);
However, I need to fade them out and then loop the fade in-out animation forever.
I had an idea I would like to incorporate into my site, and sure that Flash can accomodate, but what better place to check!? Say I have a mc_1, mc_2, mc_3, mc_4, and mc_5 all are basically the same information, just varied lead in animations. Is there a code that I can call to randomly choose among those when the site is loaded? Pretty vague I know, but right now I am adding them via "addChild," so would there be something I could use to accomplish this?
View 3 RepliesI have a slider on my stage that returns a number between 0 - 300 depending on where the user moves the slide.What I would like to do is add and remove movieclips as the user slides the slider so that the number of movieclips on the stage is proportional to the slider's value.An example: If the slider value is 300, I want 300 circles on the stage. As the slider moves down to zero, the number of circles on the stage decrease.I've been trying to think of the best way to do this. Should I use addChild and removeChild? Or just change the visibility?And what would be the best way to refer to each movieclip? Should I use an array? Or maybe an if/else statement?
View 4 RepliesI'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.
PHP Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
xx = -(Math.cos(this.ro._rotation*(Math.PI/180)))*speed;
yy = -(Math.sin(this.ro._rotation*(Math.PI/180)))*speed;
this.ro._rotation = random(360); radie = 9;

I posted this in the Flash 8 forum, but wonder if I'll have better luck in here. I need to get movie clips to play randomly. Currently, I have actionscript on Frame 1, and a movie clips on the stage in Frame 2. Also in each movie clip as the last frame I have "PlayMC();".[code]
View 1 RepliesI am generating movieClips outside of the stage I want to send them randomly into the stage in enter frame. Currently it looks like this, so they go like in all directions... How could I direct each of them randomly into the stage?
Code:

var newObj:MyObj=new MyObj();
//this places them randomly outside of the stage

I can place the movieclips randomly on the stage but I am trying to randomly populate shapes with movieclips.
Code:
ball_mc.x = Math.random() * stage.stageWidth;
I tried just replacing stage.stageWidth with box_mc.width but that didnt work. Also, I wanted to create more complicated shapes for their bounding area then just a movieclip's rectangle.
I have an mp3 playing. What I would like is to have a movieclip that is located in the library appear, complete it's animation then get removed. The movie clip must complete this proccess 4 times, randomly during the length of the song but never at the same time and not in the last 5 seconds of the song. BTW I can't do this manually by just firing it off a random amount of times because this code will be used with lots of different mp3's, so I need to use the dynamic data I get by retrieving the song length. I have the code working to retrieve the length of the song, and I have a variable that stores the length minus 5 seconds from the end, so I basically have the length of time I wish to work with.
My problem is making the movie clips appear 4 times randomly throughout that length of time. The code is below (what I have so far), the movieclip is stored in the library as circle_mc. The timer I'm using at the beginning of the code (to retrieve the length of the song) is set to run after 2 seconds this is because there is a delay in the music starting and if it did it instantly the number retrieved obviously would be 0, so I delay it by 2 secs till I know the song is playing. At the moment I'm just trying to get it to fire twice, at the moment it fires once or not at all.

I am trying to call objects from the library for a collection game.
Having major issues with the best way to assign the good objects and the bad objects to later update a score.
how i can first assign the movieClips from the library into a good and bad array and then after randomally fill the stage with them.
I want to randomly load 3 animations in a topbanner on my website. The 3 animations are placed inside their own movieclip and loaded to the stage by using "attachMovie". This works fine. But when a movieclip is loaded to the stage and the animation inside of it is finished playing how do i attach or load another movieclip randomly to the stage?

I want the final result to be a stage with a certain number of circle MC's moving around. I have made the circle MC, and added the AS so that it will start at a random point with a random color, then start moving around randomly. I want to make it so that In the beginning the document will duplicate the movie clip x amount of times, using a for loop. I want to then have all the new circles move around, and when two circles hit each other, they will dissappear, using the removeclip function. You can only use this on duplicated movieclips though, so how would i make all the circles duplicated? Is there a way to duplicate the original movieclip x amount of times then delete it? Or is there a way to remove the original after it is in a collision? Also I don't know how to do the collision detection. I am thinking of using a hittest, but would I just do it with a for loop? Is there a way so that if an MC hits any other MC?
View 3 RepliesI am new to flash programming. I have to create a flash card game for a client.There are 52 cards with back showing in 52 rectangles. Each time the swf loads the position of the cards has to be different (randomly placed) in those 52 rectangles. Click on the card and the face of the card shows. Also an option for shuffle. When the user clicks on shuffle, the cards are randomly placed.
View 1 RepliesSo i'm ready to switch to AS3 but there is something i can't figure out is, how do you write a class that attaches a clip from a library, WITHOUT specifying the class in the export to stage thing of the clip in my library ?

And have a clip attached to the stage and the class assigned to the clip...

I have a Flash movie that attaches a .as defined MovieClip in the first frame of the timeline.In my MovieClip class, I attach a background image movie and a couple of buttons and whatnot - basically building a screen.If the user clicks a certain button on the screen (the button is defined entirely in actionscript and isn't on the flash stage at all), then I want to pop up a Window component.In my class file, I define _win:Window; but do not instanciate it initially.I defined the button's onPress event inside a load listener - this is that definition.

It's been a long time since I've done any work with actionscript, and alas I've forgotten nearly everything. I've tried to look for a tutorial that would explain basic animation with actionscript, but the one that I found on Kirupa was no longer there.
Basically I'd like to do this:On the stage I have a movieclip and I'd like the movieclip to move along the x-axis to a certain point and then back to the starting point again. The moving speed of the movieclip should also be adjustable.
