I'm making a game, where i gun down a movieclip, i am counting the shots fired and the hits, now i want to show the accuracy in per cent. how do i do that this is what i have right now:
i have three variablesshots, hitCount and accu
function accuracy():Void
{
accu = Math.floor(Math.random() (shots % 100) * (hitCount));
[code]....
I have a simple shooting game set up. 25 monsters appear on the screen, one after another, until no monsters are left. If you hit one before it disappears, the score increases. If you don't, the score stays the same.
In the actions frame, I placed an empty dynamic text box named score, and set it equal to 0 (declared in the main actions frame). But, seeing as though the monster actions are coded into the library item itself, do I have to declare score, and the score increase there instead?
I made a game and I like to add scores. For now I have:
Code:
if (eval('ball'+curball).sunk) {
counter = counter + 10; how could I show points (counter) in a game?
How to make a gameplay time counter? I did make one but it only showed seconds and miliseconds (with gettimer())). As soon as the player hit the button "submit" the time has to start to count. As the player reached his maximum turns the game goed to the next frame and the timer should top. The game starts over (from frame2) so the timer has to begin over again.
View 4 Repliesi am currently working on a facebook game and i have a problem concerning the integration of a life counter which regenerates over time for a facebook game. The game is a simple Flash/AS3 shooter in which users are competing for the highest score. For monetary reasons every game costs one life and users should only be able to start a new game, if said life counter is >=1. To clear things up, i submitted a link to Popcap's facebook game "Zuma Blitz": ZUMA Blitz I can think of a few ways to do this, but i don't know which is the best/easiest approach.

I can think of a few ways to do this, but i don't know which is the best/easiest approach.Would it be best to:Make it in AS3 with server communication via php?Or do it in JavaScript and communicate the count back to AS3?Another maybe related question is, how do i tell my database that the data from the life counter should be stored when the game is closed (for example by closing the browser).Can i do this from Flash or do i have to apply a html/JavaScript method?
I have been trying to make a score counter for a small game where the user clicks on a button on the stage, each time the user presses the button the score increments by 10, however I cannot get the score to display on the dynamic text field.
var score:uint;
//scoreCounter is the instance name of the dynamic text box
function updateScore():void{
score += 10;
scoreCounter.text = score.toString();
}
Does anyone know how accurate flash timing is and its ability to identify the client monitor's refresh rate? I need to be able to calculate time durations with up to 10 milliseconds accuracy of response time. Also if it is off, is there a way to possibly calibrate the response based on monitor refresh rate and action to make sure the value is as close to precise as possible? Any info would be great! Even better would be some examples of existing benchmark test.
Update:I've found this post which is helpful but wanted to see if anyone else has anything else to add on the subject.[URL]..
I'm trying to recreate old NES style games in flash. One major problem i'm running into is little "jumps" in the pixels.For example, when putting the sprites together in a movie clip, the 3rd running sprite, when running in the flash player, has a slightly thicker black border line on it than the other sprites. (The "black border" is just the black pixels outlining the actual sprite)
View 2 RepliesI came accross another issue regarding the accuracy between the getTimer and date.getTime functions.I use this simple script (AS2)
[Code]...
What happens if you let this simple app running is that the trace will show that the difference between the getTimer and date.getTime results slowly increases.I would assume some inaccuracy, but not one that would slowly increase during the lifetime of the application. The reason I want to compare the two values is that I want to see if someone is tampering with the application speed with a program such as Cheat Engine. And I noticed the date.getTime function isn't affected by that program, but the getTimer function is.
I am going to develop a very simple game for android and for iphone/ipad I have the option to develop it in cocos2d or in adobe flash air (i am not a developer, but i have 2 developers who are offering me the service)I have a developer that states that cocos2d is better and other one that states that adobe flash air.I want it in cross platform.the cost offered by both developers is the same..i have heard that adobe air has the flaw that it is very slow, is this real? if you had the 2 options which will you use to develop your game and why?

I mean the layouts of the game should be predefined or they should be dynamically created? Also I wanted to know how the surface of enable and disable symbols are created?

View 1 Repliesim trying to create a tamagotchi game type game. For some reason i can not add any items to the stage.Currently i have imported 2 png images to the stage and coverted them to movie clips. One is called TamagotchiCharacter and the other is called Beer. I have also created a new 2 AS3.0 script class called TamagotchiGame and DraggableItem. The following is TamagotchiGame:
Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
public class TamagotchiGame extends MovieClip {

I have assigned the above code as the BaseClass of the Beer symbol, this has allowed the beer to become draggable and droppable etc.when i run the program nothing happens, i just get a blank white screen.
It's about the "Game Character Dialogues", It is used to instruct the user what to do, like what you see in BookWorm or Diner DAsh.I used dynamic text fields to generate these dialogues,but as I continued doing it. I found myself stuck.I have no idea on how to change the words when the "next" button is clicked. there will be no previous button. but the dialogue will replay when the character is clicked.

View 3 RepliesI would like to make an .exe file that shows a starting number (that I would designate in the code), and then every 30 seconds, it adds 1 to that number. So for example, the exe begins by showing "11,057" on the screen, and then 30 seconds later, that number changes to "11,058", and so on. Is this possible? How do I do this? I wish I could find an .fla that does this so that I could understand everything from setting up the text box to show the number to assigning the actionscript code to make that number change.
PS - I need this counter to run as an .exe file on a Windows 7 computer that will not be connected to the internet, so code that requires PHP or running on a web server won't work. But an XML file called from the .fla would work, because I could keep the XML file in the same folder as the .exe on the computer.
Is there a way to put a hit counter into a flash video? Or is that something that would need to go into the HTML file? Also I need it to be invisible, but be able to check it somehow.
