I'm trying to add a system of health to one of my games.The actionscript I'm using doesn't seem to be working, and I've tried many different variations.This is what I'm trying to use:
In Frame 1 Actions:
_root.health=25;
if(_root.character.hitTest(_root.enemy))
if(health>0){[code]...
EDIT: I already solved the healthbar problem. Now what I want to know is if there's a way to set a max number for my health. For example, when I click "heal", it goes way over the max HP which is 100. Is there a way to set the max number to 100?

View 1 RepliesI setup a login system using Flash / PHP /mySQL. The other day, the server I was working on went down, so I had to setup everything on another server. I am able to send the query to PHP and it prints the result in Flash. (Either "Success" or "Failure"). And I do get the correct response depending on what I write as username / password. But either way, the if statement says its not "Success". This worked perfectly on the other server. Here's the AS (as I get the correct result from PHP it can't be a problem on that end):

I'm wondering if anyone would be able to point me in the direction of a tutorial using action script 2 on making an expanding menu system. [URL] This one is a tutorial but I could do with one from the start step by step!

As you can probably guess i am making a rotated menu system. It all works fine except the code above.Basically what happens is that when I click the "MUSIC" button, then the "HISTORY" button, then to the "MUSIC" button and finally the "HISTORY" button, it seems to do the opposite clockwise direction to what it did the first time i click on it.....
Ive been making a flash 8 gallery for a website and they want me to add a rating system to it so people can rate the images out of 5, 10 or whatever.
View 2 RepliesI've been trying to find a solution to this for a while, but I haven't had any luck.I'm making a menu system that uses sliding movie clips instead of separate pagesbut when you click on the 'study at UWS' button, the nested slider kind of goes nuts, until you press on of the side buttons.
View 3 RepliesI have a movie clip which has a dynamic mask applied to it to provide a scroll effect.
The mask is generated with the 'create blank movieclip' method.
So the mask is a movie clip over a movie clip.
I hunted for invisible text last night and found this link [URL]
which implies it's to do with the mask being on a layer, but from what I can gather from reading the AS, it's not it's on a new blank movie clip.
Also many other links I found all imply it's an issue with dynamic text and the font needs to be embeded, but the underlying text is not dynamic, it's static normal text which has been used in a movieclip to create animated rollover/out effects.
So why is the text missing when the content is scrolled into view?
If you hover over where the text is supose to be, the animation plays and the text becomes visible?
Also the arrow graphic next to the text which forms part of the animation does display; it's just the text portion which is invisible?
How do i use the on(dragover), becuase i am making a simple randomness game,(to start off) because i have something that you can drag, and i want to make it if you drag the thing over it it takes you to a new keyframe.Here is the movie clip i want to be drug on: (nothing happens)
Code:
on(dragOver) {
gotoAndStop(3)
}
Heres the code that you can drag the item(works)
Code:
on(press) {
startDrag(this)[code].....
I got a textfile who i am reading on a serverside script and passing it as a script to my client side as3 code. The problem is that i am using characters like ä,ö,ü,ß and this isn't well displayed. I tried System.useCodePage but the compiler complains about : 1120: Access of undefined property 'System'. It doesnt matter if I tried this on the first line of the 'Action' in the first scene or in the first line of the first .as file i am loading. (btw i am only working with .as file and not in the timeline). When i am importing flash.System.* the compiler complains he dont know useCodePage.
View 3 RepliesAlright, so after some work and a lot of mistakes, I made a health bar for my game. (This is in Actionscript 2) Basically, the code is on my main character's .as file, there is var maxHealth : Number = 100; var health : Number = 100; and further down the line... _root.healthBar._width = (health/maxHealth) * 200;.As a result, when I change the var health number lower, the health bar goes lower. Sweet! It works! Now I was wondering if any of you guys could help me code it so an enemy can inflict damage upon the main character. I have tried many codes but they have all failed. if(this.hitTest(_root.Monster)) { } What would I put in the brackets?
View 3 RepliesHow do you create a simple Health Bar for Actionscript 3.0? I have been searching for this for a while, and all I ever find are AS2 tutorials. AS2 dates back to about 900 B.C. ; it is an archaic language and it needs to be left alone, FOR GOOD.

I need help with a health bar that I am trying to create for my game, Nerd Wars. I have 2 health bar, the players health bar that changes from weapon choice and an enemy bar which shows the enemy health when the players weapon choice is on.
Between the change animation I have put a few second for the enemy/player health bar to go down in. The health bars should be going down by a certain random amount between 40 and 60 and this is where I think the problem is. post code that would generate a random number between 40 and 60 and assign it to a variable. I think that would be a good place to start.
I already solved the healthbar problem. Now what I want to know is if there's a way to set a max number for my health. For example, when I click "heal", it goes way over the max HP which is 100. Is there a way to set the max number to 100?
View 1 RepliesHere is my code on a button, when you click the button it takes you to a certain frame and plays, it is meant to add 10 health. When I have it it 52 health, it doesnt go to 62 it goes to 92. When It is at 30 it doesnt go to 40 it goes to 100. why? please help.
on (release) { onEnterFrame = function () { if (_root.health <=90) { gotoAndPlay("use"); _root.health += 10; // I have tried it so this bit of code is in the frame ("use") so it adds 10 health when it lands on that frame, didnt work. } ////////////// only pay attention to the above.////////////// if (_root.health<=100)

View 10 RepliesI'm working on a game where I need to have a variable for money and a variable for Health, or in my case, I call it Energy. Most tutorials I'm finding are in AS2 and the AS3 ones are not this basic thing that I need. Basically, I have an item shop with a pizza button, and in their respective dynamic text fields, you can see the status of your Energy and your Money. So, let's say the person clicks the pizza to buy it, Flash will subtract 10 (for 10 bucks) from the person's total money value and add 15 for total Energy points.This is what I've written so far and I'm writing all the script in Flash, not outside using classes or packages. I can tell already that I'm missing something. How do I write it so that Flash knows to add 15 Energy from that Pizza button and can I update the values of the variables and kick off that mouse event in the same function?[code]

View 1 RepliesI'm having problems with actions script in Flash 8.I'm trying to make a little side scrolling fighting game, i've got a character and an enemy which follows him and has an attack animation when close, but I can't get the health bar to decrease when the hitting animation occurs while in contact with the hero.[code]I put this script on an invisible square which appears during the attack animation, HERO is my hero's instance name and HP the health bar's. Whats suppose to happen is that the enemy goes for the attack animation which is of hitting the hero whith an axe, and when the invisible box hits the hero at that moment, the hp should go down..

I am create a little game just to get more experience in Action Script 3.0. What I want is: If you shoot. And the bullet hits. Than the text above should -20.. Say It has 100(health). And we hit. It will display 80. Second hit 60 etc. This is what I am having but it does not seem to work out.

[URL].. If you navigate to the health+science section on each site, you'll notice in the dev, the XML displays properly. If you check it out in the first one (not dev) you'll notice a break or two between each line.

I am making a flash game for a school project, and I decided to make a stick fighting game.once the enemy attacks the player their health just drains. The only way I can fix it is if I have a decimal instead of a whole number, but I have the variable of the health in a text box to display the players current health and it doesn't look to good with a decimal number.So, I am wondering if there is a way to make the health decrease by a decimal, but show a whole number in the textbox.[code]
