ActionScript 2.0 :: Ending The For Loops?
Jun 2, 2004
We have a For Loop that duplicates and movie Clip.
for (counter=2;counter<=15;counter++) {
duplicateMovieClip(enemy,"enemy"+counter,counter+1 00);
}
On a hit test we want to remove all the duplicated movieclips. I acomplished this using a new scene with a frame action contianing another For Loop and a remove movie clip action. Hit test true move to new scene play frame action.
for (counter=2;counter<=15;counter++) {
removeMovieClip("enemy"+counter);
}
This worked.Is there a way to put a stop of the For Loop or Put a stop on the Duplicate movie clip?

I've just created my first flash animation. It's about 10 seconds. The only problem is that it loops continuously. In the "using Flash for the first time" lesson by Jen deHaan (great lesson1), she mentions that you can drop this code in "stop();" and she also recommends to add all such code to a single frame to make it easy to find. However, she does not mention how to add code to a frame.
Likewise, the Help file only discusses stopping the loop for specific "graphics instances," not for an entire scene or movie. I'm sure it's simple. I just can't find it.

I am now working on an intro and found this very neat animation on a tutorial website : see below : The problem is I don't know how to stop it. See I want when it finishes the 20 circles its randomly generating to end so that I can start my site. I have not figured out how to do this.
this.createEmptyMovieClip("maskMC",5);
maskee.cacheAsBitmap = true;maskMC.cacheAsBitmap = true;
maskee.setMask(maskMC\\

I made a video in flash which somehow got corrupted, so the fla is no longer usable. Instead of remaking the video, I would like to just snip off the end of the .swf that I published and then probably just play a second .swf immediately after to end it (with replay buttons and a link to a particular website)
My question is: Is it possible for me to cut the .swf by about 3 seconds at the end?

I have a problem where I have a flash chat room and the first thing you do is log in with a name. This works. Next it goes to a loading screen that says thank you (name) and the proceeds to a title area where you choose to either chat, check for friends or change your name. Oh and of course exit. These are all working so far, but one prob. When you hit the send btn (button) it puts the text you typed in the text area with your name first. Example: (NAME): (TEXT) Problem is it needs a paragragh space first. And I dont know the script for that.

I want to end the sound of an externally loaded swf in a child movieclip, from within a movieclip (one level below root) when the user moves from that frame in that root level mc. Problem is that there are so many ways to exit that frame containing the (2 down from root) mc with its loader: nxt/prev frm, jump w/i that mc, or jump to another root level mc. Is there a frame script to get the effect of the old onExitFrame() that I can put in the top level mc or the mc with the loader that will know when the user has moved? (so I don't have to put stop code at every possible destination for every possible loaded swf?) I'm still new to AS3, so am limited to frame scripts. I don't even know where to put the public classes some possible answers talk about building.

I'm about getting crazy over the inconsistency of loading and unloading movies processes.First one or two movies, ok. But after that, I always has my fingers crossed.It's a mixture or simple game and quiz movies. So I have this Main movie as the controller that control about 3 game movies and 16 quiz movies. So, I have these piece of codes in my Main movie timeline:
onEnterFrame = function () {
if (NextMovieOK) {
switch (movieQNum) {

I've been doing Motion in Flash just per Hand doing MotionTween etc. But now I wanted finally to do a motion of a object with Actionscript. I wanted to move a object from one side to the other and let the movement end with a little bounce. Just like in the Example here: [URL]. I have already something which moves the object with slowing down at the end of the movement (onclip even on a MC):
Code:
onClipEvent(load){
zielx=0
_x=300
rate=10
}onClipEvent(enterFrame){
_x+=(zielx-_x)/rate
}
How I can let it end with a little bounce effect instead of the slowing down. Just like in the example.

I've created a player for a client in the past using their LimeLight server to stream videos and not had an issue before, however for a new client using different LimeLight server, the videos seem to be ending 3-4 secs too early.
My traces on 3 vastly different videos I tested:
metadata duration = 32 // 32 secs long, ends at 27
Stop [27.350 seconds] = 4.65
metadata duration = 17 // 17 secs long, ends at 12
Stop [12.852 seconds] = 4.148
metadata duration = 258 // 258 secs long, ends at 255
Stop [255.861 seconds]
In the video players I check for NetStream.Play.Stop then put a 'reset' type function in there. This function however triggers too early due to this strange bug. Has anyone have seen this before?
private function netStatusHandler(event:NetStatusEvent):void
{
trace("connected is: " + nc.connected );
[Code].....
The only work-around I see for this is saving the initial number I get from the metadata duration, and running a timer to constantly check for when the current ns.time matches metadata and then run my reset function.

I have drawn a series of lines using flash's graphics.lineTo command, and placed them in an array to be referenced later. Based on certain user interactions, the clips that hold these lines can be shifted to the right, causing the lines to move with them, no longer connecting to the point they originally connected to. So I need to extend the lines by the amount their parent clip was shifted (I've called this incVal). So what I need to do is find the point at which each of these lines ended at, and draw from that point to the left by incVal. How do I get that ending point of the line?
This is my code:
To draw line and add it both to the clip and to an array for future reference:
line.graphics.lineTo(localPoint.x,localPoint.y-10);
membersRef.addChild(line);
parallelArr.push(line);

I've compiled an MTS video into MP4 format using FFMPEG. The video is 2 minutes long.
I want to be able to play the video back but start at 0:15 seconds and end at 0:45 seconds. Effectively I want the playback software to only show 30 seconds of playback available. The software must be a Flash-based application for integration into HTML.

Shouldn't flash detect these before running the script and crashing and having to force quit and restart (and flash startup takes a while)? Like just give an error: infinite for loop or something? And this happened to me a bunch when working with for loops within for loops, when I accidentally used the same variable for both loops, so of course it never ended and crashed flash.

The scenario is to create a lotto game that matches 6 user inputted numbers with 7 randomly generated numbers. The 7th number is a special case (eg bonus ball) WOULD LIKE TO SHOW A KIND HEARTED FALSH GENIUS ALL OF THE SCRIPT IF POSS! (its not tooo long) This code works, but it just outputs the default message: There seems to be a problem with my arrays not comparing? Part of the code is: (prioir to this the user inputs numbers, they are copied to text areas beginning with O, on a button press) On a second button press randomly generated number appear to a timer. //compareResult checks how many numbers match between the two sets of numbers to determine winnings.

I'm pulling data from an xml doc and created 4 XMLLists to hold the children of the 4 different elements. Inside the onLoad function, I created a series of for loops to go through each list. But Flash stops after going through the first two. I'm very puzzled by this. I got around it by creating a 2nd onLoad function for the last 2 lists, but should I be using a different loop? Curious.. I inserted a break after the first 2 and then the 3rd loaded up...

My situation is that in the game I'm making, I have a movable turret firing duplicated bullets. I need to hittest them against a duplicated set of oncoming robots. I've tried using a for loop, but I just can't get it to work.I've attached the .FLA, and I would be grateful if anyone could point out what I'm doing wrong (ignore the values for removing the clips and the random duplication; I had to shrink the stage size to make the file size smaller!)
