ActionScript 2.0 :: Force Remove Objects From Stage?

Dec 5, 2010

I am using a carousel (from Lee Brimelowe's tutorial) as the main method of navigation from my site's homepage. There are six icons in the carousel, clicking any one brings the icon to the front and some dynamic text and a button to navigate to a different page appear on stage. Clicking the icon again brings the icon back to the carousel and the text and button disappear.The site is multi-lingual (English, German, Dutch, Polish) and all text changes to the relevant language by clicking a flag button, including the text that appears beside the 'expanded' carousel icon - all of the data is loaded from XML files.

The problem with changing the language is that the entire carousel needs to be destroyed and rebuilt each time, as all of the data needed for it is only loaded on runtime. I have this 'kinda' working, the problem I am having is:If you change the language via a flag button when an icon is 'expanded' the dynamic text and button (theText and urlBtn) get 'stuck' on the stage and you have to do some clicking on the new carousel icons remove them - not ideal!Can anybody out there please advise me on how I would include some AS to remove these items too when the language button is changed?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Can Flash Player Remove Objects From Stage Automatically?

Jul 4, 2009

Why and when? Because I addChild to the stage 1000 times but only removeChild 800 times, and even so, stage.numChildren returns to 0 after all my objects have exceeded the stage boundary. I have to mention that I am moving objects from left to right (it's a game) and the object's X and Y properties eventually exceed the stage boundaries. Does something happen automatically then??? Like... events removed or something like that? This is a continuation of this thread of mine, where I initially thought addChildren has issues: [URL].

Jul 24, 2010

I have drawn colored rods which I have placed in the library and have put one of each on the stage with instance names likeblueRod_mc, etc.I place them around with time-line code like
blueRod_mc.x = 300.0;I have now created an Actionscript class called Problem.I build a new object from Problem which I have called Riddle.But when I put blueRod_mc.x = 300.0 in a method (of Problem),I get the message that blueRod is not accessible.So I triedstage.blueRod_mc.x = 300.0;That did not work either.

ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Remove All Objects From Array

Nov 23, 2009

I'm trying to remove all objects from an array, and then emptying the array using splice. I'm restarting the game, removing all objects etc so that I can add them again. But what happens is that no object (enemies, blocks, bullets etc) is really removed. It's not visible anymore, but it's still on the stage wreaking havoc (hit detection still working, so enemies are avoiding enemies that were supposed to be removed, bullets hitting them and so on). And then when I restart the game a couple of times I have way too many objects and the game starts to lag. Code below: This is the code for the enemy, I have different loops for the other objects, but they all look the same:
Code:
for(var a=0; a<enemy1.length; a++) //loop through enemy1 {
if(enemy1[a].dead == true) //check if dead {
removeChild(enemy1[a]); //remove from stage
enemy1.splice(a,1); //remove element from array
}}
So to reiterate, I need to remove the objects from the stage, and clear/empty the array.

ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Remove Dynamic Objects

Nov 25, 2009

So far I have this squid-shaped MC floating and making bubble-shaped MCs which rise to the top of the stage. The bubbles get generated by following the squid's (x,y) cordinates. The whole thing looks convincing enough. The only problem is that as the memory gets full, the bubble animation degenerates, so I want to remove them once they reach the top. I figured I could use a removeChild() function tied to the same EventListner that makes them rise, but once removed it will look for the object again and throw an error. I know I'm missing something simple here, but I can't pin it down.!

Code:
var bubbleTimer:Timer=new Timer(1200);
var i:uint = 0;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Remove Objects From Array?

I have an array containing objects, where each object contains a boolean. I was wondering how I can remove only the objects where the boolean is set to true.I've tried doing it like this:

if(ballContainer[k].isCheck == true){
removeChild(ballContainer[k]);[code]....

But it doesn't seem to work that well. (Reason for it not working may very well be another reason, but I thought I'd check here anyway since I'm an AS3 novice)

ActionScript 2.0 :: Using OnMouseDown To Remove Objects In An Array?

Nov 27, 2002

How on earth do I use the onMouseDown event to remove objects generated by an array?

I'm still programming (if my bumbling can be called that ) the game I discussed in the 'Random Object Generation' thread and I'm using the basic framework of the array function that h88 gave me. Everything is working fabulously, but getting the things to disappear onMouseDown is a problem - it doesn't work.

Oh, and if I reference Target.prototype.onMouseDown and tell it it to this.unloadMovie, it unloads every single target on the screen instead of the one your mouse is actually over, making for a fairly... lame... game. I'm pretty sure it's because every single clip generated by the array is a Target prototype instance and so when the MouseDown occurrs, it unloads every Target movieClip. And I am using a hitTest in the Target.prototype.onMouseDown command, so that doesn't solve anything...

ActionScript 3.0 :: Creating Simulation - Remove Objects From Vector?

Aug 4, 2009

I'm creating a simulation in which a large number of objects are added to vectors and then taken away in random order (as more are being added). To remove the objects, I splice the object from the vector it's in, and notify all the other objects that an object ahead of them was removed so they can change their indices accordingly. As far as I know, the objects have no other references (I think), and within the object, I set everything to null. I read somewhere that you can't put "delete this" in the class, so I didn't bother with that. Will this be sufficient to get the object garbage collected, or should I do something else? What are the best ways to get something like this garbage collected?
