View 5 RepliesI am trying to have one single loader for different buttons to load their specific target. lets say I have btnOne and btnTwo, each of them have their page to link to, btnOne to pageOne, btnTwo to pageTwo, page one and two are external swfs. so can I load them into stage by sharing one single loader?
this is simply my script:
ActionScript Code:
var swfURL:String = ("external.swf");
btnOne.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, startLoad);
btnTwo.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, startLoad);

I have a movie clip with 15 frames. Each frame has buttons on it (mc's)... I was going to put the actions on the main timeline/stage and navigate within the MC from the main timeline. Is that possible? I can get the buttons on the first frame of the MC to work, but I can't seem to figure out how to target/make the buttons on the other frames work? I was thinking I could identify the path of the MC with the frame labels, but that doesn't seem to work. like: _root.RMChanger.(frame label).buttonOnFrame = function
I have to move a text box in and out over the MC backgrounds on the main stage... which is why I was thinking to do it this way? I've been switching back and forth bwtween AS2.0 and 3.0
im creating a small drag and drop game in AS3-
I have 4 objects and 4 targets,
I want to be able to drag any of the 4 objects onto any of the targets, right now all I can manage is to allow each object drop onto one specific target only.
I thought by calling all my target names by the same instance name eg target_mc that would work but only one target will ever work.
I've been working on a cute game and I've hit a bit of a wall
It's a shooting gallery game and I want to add multiple target types (so far this has been easy) but I want to game to randomly bring them up as you play. There are four possible target spots and seven possible targets:
baddie1
baddie2
baddie3
baddie4
baddie5
baddie6
goodie1
I am currently having a problem adding the Tell Target action to a button.
The following is the hierarchy of my timeline:
-Root
---Movie Clip (Instance Name="FadeIn")
------Button (Instance Name="Button")
----------Movie Clip (Instance Name="About")
The Movie Clip i'm trying to control is "About". This MC is also placed within the 'Over' state of "Button"
I keep receiving the Target Not Found error in Base="_level0.FadeIn"
i basically have some images of logs (for a bridge) setup inside a movieclip called log_mc, inside log_mc each log has its own movieclip log1_mc, log2_mc and so on

I have a problem when making flash applications with more than one frame that has symbols placed on it in that I can't declare all of the event listeners for the objects at the same time and I have found that even if I put them all on the first frame, add the event listeners, then click through to the next frame then the buttons won't work on that frame.
Does anyone have any idea how I could solve this? I did consider myself a fairly competent AS3 programmer until I realised I had no idea how to handle this sort of thing. Solved: I initialised the clips from my external class and then addChild'd and removeChild'd them as I needed to and placed their x and y on addChilding.
i have an if statement, an object will go to a new frame if multiple buttons are pressed
PHP Code:[code].....
now i want it so that if one condition is met the mc will goto frame 2, if 2 conditions are met, frame 3 and if 3 conditions are met, frame 4.i know i could do this with a lot of if statements but i have a lot of movie clips to use this code on, so is there any way to write an if statement that will trigger different options if multiple conditions are met?

I want to use the above code (obviously with more meat inside of it) on multiple instances of the same symbol, but when I name the instances "wall" only one of them actually performs the hitTest. Is there a way to pull this off without having to perform a hitTest on every instance?
I have several buttons on an externally loaded swf that work fine but I'd like to clean up the code if possible. Is there an better way to target the mc other than using multiple _parents?
Code:
on (rollOver) {
_parent._parent._parent._parent._parent._parent._parent.expression.gotoAndStop (2);
} on (rollOut) {
_parent._parent._parent._parent._parent._parent._parent.expression.gotoAndStop (1);
}
The thing is I am not exactly sure if this mc is going to remain an external swf or if it will eventually stand alone, which is why I haven't targeted the root at its level. I'd like it to work either way if possible.
how to target multiple movie clips at once so that if my tank bumps into a specific set of movie clips, it will change my move var to false without having to put a hittest on each individual movie clip and without having to list out all their names? I don't want to list fifty different instance names for all the hittests.
View 1 Replies1. I created the dropzone script, in which has to be dynamic in size so that people can the tiles to design their floor board. Problem is, if the dropzones are too close to each other, the app has problems deciding where to drop the tile. (the tile floor is diagonal, imagine a diamond looking tile) I dont know what to do in order to securely place tiles where it shuld be... the dropzones are too close to each other..!the tile can either be full tile, 1/2 and 1/4 tile. How do I do this? I managed to get the drag n drop for full tile to work, but I dont know how can I do it with 1/2 or 1/4 tile. Should I split the dropzones into 4 sections? If I did, then I'll have a problem with full tile? For dropping let say, a pyramid-shaped tile onto a Full Tile would be very2 confusing

View 1 RepliesI am porting an existing project from Flash Pro to Flash Builder.The code is almost completely portable between Web/Android/Projector/AIR, and I simply change a few constants for each target device before hitting publish...However- in Flash Builder, it asks me when creating a project whether it will be mobile or web.What's the best-practices way to target multiple devices from a single project in Flash Builder?OR, in Flash Builder, must they each be their own project? If they must each be their own project- is there a multi-project organization method which works well, keeping in mind that in this context each project is really just a different build of the almost-identical codebase (On one foot- I thought of having a "common" project

I have tried placing the target on a seperate layer but it does not work either.

With some excellent help from ilike2 I was able to import random objects from a library that can then be dragged to their respective targets (on repeat). However, I forgot to mention that I need to drag more than one of these objects onto the same target and I don't know how to change the actionscript to accommodate this. Would anyone be able to help me with this? In the example below I would also like Blue2 to target targetBlue_mc Here is the code:

View 3 RepliesThe garage door has a chevrolet logo on it that is pulsating. I know how to make buttons but I need the garage door to become a button that when clicked the animation plays rather than it playing automatically.The top of the tool chest will be a button that plays the animation in reverse and the drawers are buttons that open to an email form for each. But I don't know how to target these buttons because they are nested two levels below the main timeline.
