ActionScript 2.0 :: MX > How To Make Functions Stop Running
Jul 14, 2003
how to move from one frame to another (once clips complete their actions). I had previously posted some questions regarding this matter, but I think the post got too long and confusing (at least to myself).SO I'm starting over from scratch and want to go step by step so I can understand. I have a line clip on stage that I move down the screen and center and expand it at the same time to fit the width of the stage. Now I have this code for that:
[AS]
goDownAndCenter=function()
{
[code].....

Let's say I would want to use the frameScript method to add some stop and play methods to some frames.
Normally I would declare the stop function:
private function $FUN_FrameStop():void {
stop();

In AS3, how do you delete or stop a function from running? For example in Frame 3, I have a function called createAnimation(); running, and when the user goes back to Frame 1, I want createAnimation(); to stop running, what is the best way of stopping or deleting the function?

I've tried a couple dozen things to try and stop this movie clip, even down to the bare bones basics and its not working.I have an imported TIFF sequence that i imported onto the stage of a movie clip. Its 73 frames long, i want it to stop on frame 73.So i add the usual stop(); command but it doesn't stop, it keeps looping.On the main layer i put this movieclip in i have an AS layer that also has stop(); and moviclip.stop();But it doesn't stop at all. it just keeps repeating.I put it down to this bare basic setup just to see if i could even stop it. But its not stopping.Layers -> and stuffScene 1Content - movieclipMCActionScript - stop(); movieclipMC.stop();Movieclip - keyframes consisting of image sequence 1-73. frame 73 has stop();

I have a problem with two functions. This is the story: the user has to press the space button on keyboard when he sees something on screen, then the "rightClick" function is called. If he presses the button when there is something else on screen that is a wrong answer (function "wrongClick" is called). The problem is that when the user presses the space button both function run at the same time.
This is the call of the wrongtClick function on frame 5
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, wrongPress);
This is the call of the rightClick function on frame 10
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, rightPress);
Both function are very simple:
function rightPress(event:KeyboardEvent):void {
scorenum += 1;
trace ("Right:",scorenum);
} function wrongPress(event:KeyboardEvent):void {
wrongnum += 1;
trace ("Wrong:", wrongnum);
//and plays a sound too
}

I've got a project thats getting a bit big, so Im taking the actionscript out into separate as files. I want all the basic functions to be in BasicFunctions.as and the make a library for more specific functions. I find that a lot of people use the import statement but I cant get that to work with a simple Hello World trace, yet the include statement works fine (see attached). I understand that import/include work differently, but which is the better method? If import, then is that heavier to work with. Any rate, what's the best way to organise code when it gets to the 1000+ lines?

I have a flex app that has several timers running for various amounts of time and for various reasons. I'd like to be able to stop all timers running if the user goes over a specified amount of time, but don't want to individually stop the timers using timer.stop(); Is there a way to stop all timers globally or find and iterate over all timers running and stop them?

I prepared a educational game at flash with actionscript. I newable at flash. But i have a problem. I create a main.swf and other swf's. I call others to main.swf with addchild() code. The swf which I called has sounds inside (i called sounds from file not embedded in timeline or linkaged from library). I create also some timers on other swf files to ease my job. Timers control timeline. But not controls the sounds. The problem is that when i unload or remove the child at the stage i can clear all of the items. But timers still continuning . I search the problem at web a bit and i meet by chance the following code,
ar t:Timer = new Timer()
TimersManager.getInstance().register(t);
...
TimersManager.getInstance().stopAll();
it is for Flex i understood. But it can be possible with flash? anyone knows that how i can create a timersmanager class and register my timers on it.

I have a simple flash game with two frames at the moment.Most of the stuff that happens is in as files linked to different movie clips.I orignially only had one frame my background frame and when testing I just press ctl+enter and bamm away it goes the actionscript runs as soon as the movie/game starts and ergo the game plays.My problem is this, I now want to have a start/home frame at the beginning (of course) which has the start game button on which when clicked THEN starts the game.Currently the game starts in the first frame along with the start button.How do I stop the game running straight away and my first frame only contains the start button, which when clicked then goes to the 2nd frame and starts the game?

I am using Flash CS3. I'm new at actionscripting and I do not understand it completely. I have a movie that has a few (2-4) scenes in it. Each scene is like its own "commercial" I created a holiday movie that has snowflakes falling using an online tutorial. The movie works fine by itself, but when I load it as a scene in the movie that has my"commercials", the snowflakes continue to fall throughout the rest of the scenes. The holiday movie has a movie clip that has a snowflake falling straight down. The actionscripting duplicates the movie clip randomly as well as its opacity, postition, etc. I understand what I did during the tutorial, but I'm not sure how to get the snowflakes to stop falling throughout the rest of the scenes. I've tried entering a stop after the script but it just seems to stop the scene there without continuing to rotate through the rest of them. I don't quite understand where to tell it to stop. Somewhere else on the actions timeline? In the movie clip itself? Here is the actionscript code I'm using:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("canvas_mc",10);
var i = 0;
myInterval = setInterval(addFlake,500);

I'm trying to stop an animation running that I've imported from an .SWF file.I've loaded it using the new URLRequest method, but now I can't seem to talk to it.Is it possible to Talk to it, or should I just leave it in the Library and pull it from there.

I would like to know how to stop a running tween when rollingOver a sprite. I used to stop the tween on as2, but I don't know how to acces the running tween on as3 because of the var statement before the tween name.I guess the score is modifying the 2 lines:
over_handler1.stop();
over_handler2.stop();
My code is this one:
Code:
function fc_hitOver(e:MouseEvent):void {
var lastActive:String=e.target.name;[code]......

I am making a platform game in flash. I have a goal class(the class which contains code for the goal sprite, where when you hit it, it continues to next part of game).
[Code]...
The beginClass function is fine, and only runs once, but eFrame is what checks if the player has hit the goal, so it is constantly running. The problem is, once the player hits the goal, eFrame continues to run, while in a menu describing the next scene to the player. My eFrame function is below.

How do you stop the flash debugger if the code is running an infinite loop, or very very slowly?
I put too many trace() statements in, and it is taking forever. I know I can ctrl+alt+delete and stop flash CS5, but is there an easier way?

I'm still stuck on this! I've tried so many things and still can't get it to work. I've watched Tim Perkins' Lynda.com stuff and I still can't get this to work!
This is where I'm at now with the code. It works to an extent, but doesn't lock out the other bArrays when the first one is clicked. I would like the code to stop bArray2 & bArray3 from functioning when a button in bArray1 is clicked. Is this at all possible?[code]...

My question is, how can I create the same $FUN_FrameStop as a static function?
Static functions do not allow the use of this since static members are bound to a class and are not inherited by that class' instances.
So, is there a way to create a function similar to $FUN_FrameStop, but static?

I am trying to write a custom logger target by extending TraceTarget and overriding the mx_internal function internalLog. I would like to send the occasional error log to our server for recording. I am doing this using an HTTPService, and sending it each time internalLog() is called.
However, if one does the following,
