ActionScript 2.0 :: Make Movieclips "stick" And Move Together
Jul 18, 2009
I have two movieclips. "A" is generated with this code in the first frame:
____________________________________________
for (i = 0; i < 1; i++){
_root.attachMovie("A","A_" + i, i + 10);
}
[Code]...
This code works as a hitTest, but it seems like "A" doesn't know to stay with the "strandT" that it collided with. How can I tell "A" to stay with the "strandT" movieclip that it hits, and not the others on the screen (there will be many "strandT" movieclips on the screen at once). Does each "strandT" have a unique name or level that I can use to identify it specifically?
I need to build a flash learn game to my students. It is to explain the angles and phisics over the billiard/snooker Table. Something similar to this: [URL] The only thing I can do until now is drag the ball! My doubts are:
- How to make the stick move with the center in the point near the ball; - How to draw the yellow line; - How to calculate the corners; - And in the last, how to move the ball with accelerated motion when press a button.
I am trying to make a little demonstration of how animals hunt . I searched everywhere but I couldn't find how to make what happens in the next application :(press on the scorpion lesson and watch it)Does anybody know how can I get my movie clip to go to a place inputed by the user (just like the scorpion goes to it's pray in the application ) ? Please don't just show me how to make it instantly appear in that place , I want to make it "walk" till there .
I want to make an explosion and move other movieclips on stage depending on how far they are from the explosion point. If one mc is only 10px away from explosion it should go another 90px and if it is 75px away it should go another 25px. I can't get it to work (I don't remeber anything about vectors in math class..)
I have a bat and ball game and was wondering what eventlistener I would use to include a hand that would hold the bat instead of the mouse using the bat.I have made a new class called hand and addChild (aHand) and I want the x and y to stick to the bat I already have that is pinned at the bottom of the stage.
I have made this little flash game that is almost done, There is just one thing that I need to know.Is it possible to make a movieClip stick to another Movieclip in some easy way?You see there is this tower in the game, that shoots arrows at an enemie.Now I want that arrow to stay on the enemie that is moving along the axis until it dies, where the arrow should just drop and dissapear after a while.I have tried alot of different things to get this to work, But with no success.the enemies and arrows are saved in two separate arrays, and the arrow have a random rotation.
I'm making a jigsaw puzzle in flash and there's something I just can't figure out. I want it so that if you pick up a piece, drop it next to another piece, and the two pieces are supposed to go together, the two pieces will snap together so that if you move one piece the other will move with it. I've seen some games where they somehow get movie clips to stick together when they come into contact with each other, but I haven't been able to figure out how they did it.
I've got a dynamic text box on a movie clip that I'm using as a button (for a slider). To be specific, it's a movie clip on the stage that has a MOUSE_DOWN event listener applied to it. There's a circle in the movie clip and a dynamic text box in the movie clip right in the middle of the circle
The text field is set to NOT be selectable, the font is embedded, buttonMode and useHandCursor are set to true. I get a hand cursor when my cursor hits the outside of the circle, but once it hits the text field in the middle, the hand cursor goes away. how I can make the hand cursor stick? I've considered replacing the dynamic text field with a movie clip that has a timeline full of numbers, but that would be giving up.
I have been starting to code in ActionScript, and tried to do this program. It draws a shape into the stage, and you can move it using the arrow keys. I added a "edge sticking" feature that sticks half of the shape to the edge.[code]...
i have 2 movieclips: i want to move both of them but the second movie clip will only move if the first clip reach his final destination how do i do that?
well i want to make buttons that on rollover move to left, on rollout move back to their initial position, and if clicked, they but stay this time at the final rollover place, and be there until something else is clicked. When something else is clicked, the previous button , returns to its initial place. So i ve got it all figured out except for the freeze and move part when the buttons are clicked. All it does now , is when they are clicked they freeze at the position i want, but i havent got a clue how to update them, after so they start moving back, and reacting on rollover and rollout, when the next button is clicked.
Using Tween class maybe? I tried the easeOut. But if will write 2 Tween, the 2nd one will overwrite the 1st one, so I only see the obj moving in the 2nd Tween direction, not the 1st Tween direction. I know the coordinates for the 2nd Tween below is not correct (cos all coordinates shld follow the defined reference point), so I need to find out the logo's width and height. But is alright now cos it is for testing purpose.
I have looked around for this but haven't found any that seemed close to what I am planning on doing. My question is: Is it possible to have movieclips move from one swf to another?
My problem: I have two swf's next to each other that are in an html page that simulate the look of one swf. I need to animate text here and it won't be user generated. I have looked at the local connection on Adobe but it seems as though it's user initiated. i would like to animate using tweener.
I've stored a number of x and y coordinates within a 2D array. I would like to use these coordinates to move MovieClip across the stage. I haven't been able to find anything on this all day...
I'm working with a randomly moving MC, and now it looks good except the collisions with the level. When it hits the level it gonna rotate and go another way. I don't want it go through the walls.
I've made a draggable menu for a flash site (menu_mc), but the buttons don't work inside the movie clip when I apply startDrag. To remedy the problem, I simply made another movie clip (menubuttons). I now want to more or less attach the two movieclips:
Code: if (menu_mc.moveTo(x,y)) { menubuttons.moveTo(menu_mc.x,menu_mc.y) };
I also tried some pretty iffy statements:
Code: menubuttons._x = menu_mc._x
That last one works initially, but when I move menu_mc, menubuttons stays put.
I have about 70 MovieClips and when you rollover one I want it to enlarge and the other MovieClips' x & y to shift so that nothing is overlapping. Does anyone know how to do this or has anyone seen an example? I have attached some screen shots of how I would like this to work.
I have a button that uses attachMovie to add a movieclip to the stage. You can add multiple instances of this clip to the stage, which works fine. I also have a feature whereby you can select and move these objects around the stage one by one. I am trying to add a feature whereby you can select more than one object at a time (indicated with a drop shadow - which I have working) and then move them together. This feature would also allow you to rotate the selected objects by 90, leaving the unselected objects where they are. I'm fairly certain that I'll need an array to hold the selected objects, and then use this info to move/transform only the chosen objects, but I can't figure out how to implement this.
I have 3 main movieclips with roughly 100 other related movieclips that I need to move together frame per frame. For example main movieclip1 has about 100 frames. If main movieclip 1 is on frame 3, I want movieclips 4, 5, and 10 to also be on frame 100 I think the code may involve an array with forEach function.
I have an asset file (FLA) that will be updated a lot by other team members during the project. I would like to have an JSFL script that moves all selected movieclips in the timeline to a new layer (named using the movieclips library name).[code]...
I am trying to create a movie where several movieclips move towards the center of the screen and organise themselves. I havve the following code attached to the timeline, the clips move ok but dont interact.
Code: target_mc = ["mc0", "mc1", "mc2", "mc3"]; movement = function () { numMcs = target_mc.length;
I am trying to create a movie where several movieclips move towards the centre of the screen and organise themselves. I have the following code attached to the timeline, the clips move ok but dont interact. What am I doing wrong!?
Could anybody point me to the right direction on how to do the background for [URL]? Is each of the tiny things seperate movieclips that move with relation to the mouse? I want to understand how it works since it seems to work efficiently and doesn't have any slowdown.
It looks to me like the easiest route in AS3 is to use a Shape/Sprite's Graphics property to draw these lines, clearing and re-drawing each time the stickman changes. But some of the newer Flash 10 stuff seems to suggest a closer functionality to 3D graphics where you can define points and lines/triangles and then move the points rather than recreating all from scratch each render. Is this the case?
I have a clip that I want to rotate 90deg every 12 seconds. The duration of the tween is 4 secs. I've noticed that after a while the clip doesn't rotate a full 90 degrees, and the whole thing gradually drifts out of the correct angle. If I trace the clip's rotation it shows 0, 90, 180, -90, etc. for a while then may start throwing out e.g. -106.22701125.my initial code just added 90deg to the clip's current rotation value:
Code: var timer:Timer=new Timer(12000); timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, onTimer); timer.start();
[code]....
...however the sticking still occurs, and may be related to other events happening on the stage, albeit these are pretty simple mouseOver events and shouldn't hammer resources.
