ActionScript 2.0 :: Make Charater Face Mouse Platform?
Aug 16, 2011
I have my as2 code for my game im making so far the char can jump and move left and right. make him face the mouse like lets say my mouse is to the x- of my character than I would want his left facing movie clip (which I havent made yet) to be facing that way etc. where I could start heres what I have:
I'm making a platform game. The hero can move around, but the enemies are stationary. My problem is that I want the enemies to face the hero. The first enemy behaves correctly, but the subsequent enemies only behave correctly if I kill all the preceding enemies. I have added the hero and the enemies as Objects and put the enemies into an array called enemies. Both the hero and enemy objects have a direction property and an mc property that refers to their movie clips. This for loop gets called every frame.
How would I go about doing this but not directly like 360. like lets say my mouse is to the left of the character the character would than face its left frame I made for him like lets say his left frame is frame 2.
I'm making a top down shooter and I'm encountering some interesting code lag with the function I'm using to make the player face the mouse.
Code: //The function is called through a ENTER_FRAME listener. //mX & mY are the current position of the mouse. public function facePoint(mX, mY){ if(this.visible){ this.rotation = (-Math.atan2((this.x - mX),(this.y - mY))) * 180 / Math.PI; }}
If I hold down two movement keys and then spin the mouse around the character really fast, it builds up some kind of buffer that sends the character out of control for a few seconds, even after you've released the keys. Just discovered that reducing the quality to low removes the issue entirely... so its a graphics problem. How to avoid this?
I'm trying to get a MC to rotate to face the mouse using tween: Code: import flash.events.MouseEvent; import fl.transitions.Tween; stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clicks); var tween:Tween; function clicks(e:MouseEvent):void { var dx:Number = mouseX-mc.x; var dy:Number = mouseY-mc.y; var angle:Number = Math.atan2(dy,dx)*180/Math.PI+90; tween = new Tween(mc,"rotation",null,mc.rotation,angle,5); } While this works fine, there are certain clicks which make the MC pick the longer route to rotate.
Few days ago I uploaded my flash face morphing application and now I'm thinking of writing an article about creature process.URL... anyone curious about how I made it?
I am trying to make a character jump on to a platform this is my code. The block1, block2 etc are the blocks that I want my character to jump on
PHP Code: var onBlock:Boolean; var blockHolder:Array = new ArrayblockHolder.push(block1) blockHolder.push(block2) blockHolder.push(block3) stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, checkBlock) [Code] ....
The onBlock boolean is used later but my problem is that the code doesn't work.
trying to make a platform game using a tutorial on emanueleferonato.com, but I dont know how to create multiple levels. How could I create a door that when touched by the hero is sent to the next level? The tutorial is here:
im working on a shooting game in flash 8, and i am having some troubles. I want to make it so when the mouse is one side of the screen "player" flips and looks at it, and when its on the other, it flips and looks at it.It is what the player does in this game: http:[url]....I want to get the player to act like that when the mouse is on one side.
i am an newbie as3 developer, and i am working on a basic, horizontal shooter platform game.and my question is: how can i make enemies move smart, towards the player? ( but ofcours you are in able to dodge)so like, an enemy is moving to me so when i am not dodging, it will hit the player.
I have a flash that has a background symbol that responds to CLICK event. On top of that symbol I have a sprite that contains a Bitmap with transparent pixels. Both of them are added to the stage, so they are not related directly.
I want clicks on the transparent pixels on the sprite to go straight through to the background. I have read about mouseEnabled / mouseChildren but have not been able to make these work. The symbol ignores the mouse events when I use them, but does not pass it along as if its transparent.
Is this possible to do with flash? Or will I have to re-route mouse events?
The title pretty much sums up what I am trying to do: I haven't started digging into using script in Flash yet, still being very much a beginner.
I created a simple file using movie clips nested in buttons so that when I mouseover a letter, it bobs up and down, but I can't work out how to make it return to its original "up" state *smoothly* when the mouse is moved away. If it must involve script please be aware I am a total noob!
I'm recently playing with Away3D Library and have a problem in finding Face center in Away3D. Why Away3DLite has a face.center feature while Away3D doesn't have it ? and what is the alternative solution for this ?
I have the project where I need to use papervision3d engine. It's 3d model of building. Each floor is separate .dae model embedded within swf file. Everything is okay regarding performance, but z-sorting of BasicRenderEngine is making me sad. If you take a look over attached image you will see that sometimes wall faces appear above cover and backwise, cover faces appear above wall. Each floor model was made with Swift3d by path extrussion. It has two types of material: one for wall and another for cover. Is there any way I can go through all faces and regading material applied to it assign them ViewportLayer and sort index ?
I tried to use QuadrantRenderEngine, it does correct z-sorting, but is CPU killer.
I have a flash movie i would like to create that will be around 400px x 500px.
I would then like to have a rhino charging towards you (the user) so it would have the effect that the rhino is trying to break the screen to charge at you (face on) but it stumbles because of the glass on the screen.
I am making a simple Flash animation that I would like to put online and let people visiting my site upload a picture of their face so they can be the character, like on Elf Yourself. How do I do that? I'm assuming I make the animation with a square image of a face that I mask out, and the image gets replaced when a new one is uploaded, but I don't know how to set that up dynamically, or if there's a better way.
what is involved to create a Flash file where the user can upload a .jpg of their face, crop it, and then add that picture to an animation? I'm sure you've all seen this...sort of a jib-jab type animation.
I'm trying to accomplish something with flash but I'm having some problems, if not a solution I'm hoping someone can tell me a method and what I should read up on to do this: I want to have an image on the stage that has a gap the shape of a face in the middle of it, I'd then like to put a webcam feed behind it so people can line their face up in the gap and press a button to take a picture. (I've managed to put the webcam on the stage and take the picture but can't work out how to put it behind an image). Then I cant quite work out how I'd put the face onto a character I've drawn.
I got a working code to detect face in flash. It just detects and draws a square mark over the face displayed in flash player. Now I do need when ever a face is detected automatically a photo to be taken. How to implement this? Is there any open source project available for this?
I am trying to map an image(webcam image or dynamic image) on an collada object(head). In fact I have a head, and I would like to put my face on it . Something like that[url]..
How to stretch the dynamic picture so it can fit the mapping ? Match the eyes with the eyes, the nose with the (UV map) nose,... and draw the new bitmap
I'm trying to get my font to change when clicking a button.
The text field itself is inside a movie clip called draggabletext. The inside text field is called tfield, and is dynamic with a var: output2. It renders as HTML (but doesn't have to if you have a better solution). It gets its text from a different input field.
I have a "dropdown" menu with 2 buttons (instance names arial and georgia).
I have a flash movie i would like to create that will be around 400px x 500px. I would then like to have a rhino charging towards you (the user) so it would have the effect that the rhino is trying to break the screen to charge at you (face on) but it stumbles because of the glass on the screen.
Can anyone point me in the right direction of executing this or advise on how they would go about this animation please?
I have a symbol which stays stationary, and another symbol that moves around when I use the arrow keys.I want to make symbol1 (stationary one) to face symbol2 (the one I move).I'm guessing using _rotation to make it face it depending on symbol2's _x and _y position?
