ActionScript 2.0 :: Movie Loops Even With Stop Action?

Feb 2, 2010

Im using flash cs4 pro, designing a website. I put a stop action in the last frame of scene 1 (main page) in the main time line, and that works fine. We have a button in scene 1 that brings you to scene 2 (sub-page), this scene also has a stop function in the last frame because we want it to stop, until the user hits a button to bring them to the desired scene. Now, the stop action in scene 2 seems to work, for about 6 seconds, then it goes right back to scene 1, and LOOPS! through scene 1 and 2 repeatedly, as if the stop function on scene 1 was never there.The button that brings you to scene 2 has the following action

Code:
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay("2","1");
}

the last frame of scene 2 has only a stop action, as does the last frame of scene 1. Why does it loop even with a stop action there?

ActionScript 1/2 :: Stop Action In Movie Clip?

May 21, 2010

I have a simple movie clip that animates some text and a divider bar. The clip loops which is normal, I want to add a stop action to stop the loop.I have three layers; text, divider_bar, and actions. On the actions layer I placed stop();  on the last frame. This stops the movie clip just fine. But if I rewind and play it again the movie clips stays on the last frame and wont restart. I'm using Action script 2 and have even tried using as 3 with out any luck.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Add A Stop Action After The Preloader Hangs The Entire Movie

Jan 29, 2004

I have a slide show that's about 800k and I'm trying to add a preloader. I tried 6 different preloaders today including a smart clip I downloaded from Macromedia. It seems that when I add a stop action after the preloader this hangs the entire movie. I've uploaded a working example of the slideshow without a preloader and a link to the fla of my NON-working attempt to apply the smart clip preloader here I think I'm just putting the stop action in the wrong place but I can't figure it out..

ActionScript 2.0 :: Incorporate A Stop Action, After A GotoandPlay Action On My Button?

May 8, 2009

I have a slideshow that is looped ... it contains 5 slides.I am using a gotoandPlay action to control the slide show.

on (release) {
this._parent.gotoAndPlay("98");
}

There is a fade transition between slides.When a button is released ... I want to gotoandPlay (frame 98) ... and then have it stop 10 frames later on (frame 108). Frame 98 includes the transition ... if I just gotoandStop on frame 108 ... I loose the transition.Is there any way to incorporate a stop action, after a gotoandPlay action on my button ... without naming instances etc.I.E.

on (release) {
this._parent.gotoAndPlay("98");
STOP ON FRAME 108 INTEGRATED HERE
}

Everything I have attempted is not working.

IDE :: If Else "button" - Movie Clips Have A Stop Action On The First And Last Frame With A Frame Label

Oct 10, 2009

I have three buttons, btn_1,btn_2,btn_3, and two movie clips, image_1,image_2. The names listed btn_1,btn_2,btn_3, image_1,image_2. are all instance names. All buttons and movie clips are on their own layer in a single frame on the main time line. the movie clips have a stop action on the first and last frame, with a frame label, on the first frame in the sub time line. For image_1 the frame label is image_1_1 and for image_2 the frame label is image_2_1.

I would like btn_1 and btn_2 to control the movie clips, image_1,image_2. Either button should be able to close the other buttons movie clip and play it's own movie clip. Also i am trying to make the movie clips themselves have the ability to be closed by clicking on the movie clip image area that is playing. Both movie clips when not playing hide behind the appropriate button with an alfa of 0.

When playing they expand to the middle of the window and are at 100% alfa, using a tween. The third button, btn_3 should only be visible when one or the other movie clisp are playing. btn_3 dose nothing else but this for now. As of now, my movies continuously loop and btn_3 is always visible. I can't seem to figure this out. my code for this action is:

Put in another way: The banner you see is looping through only the first movie clip. But the swf file (and the html file) work fine from the local path of my computer.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Stop A Click Action If There Is A New Click Action?

May 26, 2010

I couldn't come up with a good title for this question but basically the problem is this - I've got a series of thumbnails and clicking on a thumbnail loads a larger picture into a holder movieclip on the main stage. However, if you click another thumbnail while the first picture is still loading, then both pictures load and it goes on from there. How can I make my code so that clicking a new thumbnail cancels any actions from previous clicks?

ActionScript 2.0 :: How To Get Action To Stop

Sep 3, 2006

I have a script that I found on here posted by Salvador Marley.It is supposed to load these sub-menus (which are movieclips in the library, MC01, MC02, etc...) into an empty movieclip when certain links are clicked from the main menu.The code works for loading the movieclip from the library, and even switches the movieclip when I choose the next link all like it's supposed to do.However my problem is that it will play the sub-menu movieclip, but it will not stop at the end. It constantly loops. I have tried to put the stop command in several places throughout my entire .fla but it doesn't stop. The sub-menu's transitions just keep repeating over and over again. How do I get it to only play the sub-menu movieclip once and then stop? [code]

ActionScript 3.0 :: Stop Action Not Workig For Image Hover?

Jan 13, 2009

I am working on an interactive map. I want a thumbnail image to appear when someone hovers over the button. The thumbnail is a movie clip on the main timeline which moves into view with a stop action half way through. My intention was to write a MOUSE_OUT and direct the image off screen. When I mouse over the image comes into view as directed but instead of stoping at the stop action,it just dissappears. How can I tell the image to remain onscreen until the mouse is moved away.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Stop Action Interfering With Keyboard Commands

Nov 10, 2011

I have a simple Flash movie, and have used AS3 to allow users to hit the up arrow and go to a certain frame, then hit the right arrow to go to another specific frame. My problem is the minute I put in "stop();" in the script so my movie stops on frame 1, the keyboard controls do not work unless I double-click the playing video. The minute I remove the stop command from my actionscript, the keyboard controls work perfectly...but my movie obviously starts playing which I do not want.

I need both the stop command AND the keyboard controls, and am at a loss.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Stop Keyboard Action Repeating When Key Is Held Down?

Apr 10, 2009

I'm developing a game for my final year project at university that has a character who can move up and down on screen. The upper half of the screen is reflected in the lower half so that there are actually two characters on screen at once, each reacting exactly the same way to keyboard input.One of the mechanics involves the two avatars changing positions relative to their halves of the screen which requires a spacebar press to execute. The problem I'm having is that I don't want the characters to change positions once every frame if the spacebar is held down. I need to implement some sort of delay once the spacebar is pressed so that the characters won't swap positions for another second or so.

Code:
var plachaFlipPointY:Number = char.mc.y;
var shadowPlachaFlipPointY:Number = schar.mc.y;

Using Movie Clip Instances In FOR Loops?

Dec 4, 2009

if there is a way to use movie clip instances with FOR loops (yeh I'm not skilled with OOP so I premade mc's instead using loadMovie :for example I made manual SwapDepth function between movieclips, I have hero1_mc, hero2_mc,...,hero6_mc and enemy1_mc,..., enemy12_mc. The code looks something like this:

Code:

if (_root.hero1_mc._y > _root.hero2_mc._y) {
tempDepth1 = _root.hero1_mc.getDepth();
tempDepth2 = _root.hero2_mc.getDepth();[code].....

...and so on, code works fine but if I were to write all compares manually it will be thousand lines of code to check each movie clip with each other.So I was wondering is there any way to put those movie clip instances hero1_mc, hero2_mc... into FOR loop like (code doesn't work, if there could be a way to replace numbers with variables):

Code:

for (i=1; i<18; i++) {
for (j=1; j<18; j++) {
if ("_root.hero"+i+"_mc" > "_root.hero"+j+"_mc") {
.......

so I don't have to type all combinations D: so far I haven't found any way to do so, is there any way to make something similar with FOR loop and movie clips? I'm working on my project with AS2.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Game - Inserting A Stop Action On Frame Eleven?

Nov 22, 2010

In one part of the game Ive got some "enemies" constantly dropping from the sky, and a big cloud.mc next to the enemies that move when you press a button to block off the "enemies" from hitting the character.

I was thinking it could be possible for the enemies to have a loop from frame 1 to 10 (as long as it takes to drop from the sky) that repeats itself allthrough the game until... somebody hits the button with coding telling the enemy mc to go to frame 11 where a stop(); demand has been put in.I'm having inserting a stop action on frame eleven is that the enemies are only dropping once..

ActionScript 3.0 :: Stop The Action And Make Things Happen On Clicks?

Oct 16, 2009

I have a set of images of dogs and a doghouse.

1. Each dog has an email assigned to it for the person.

2. Clicking on a dog (or alternatively "dragging it"), puts it in the doghouse and moves the existing dog out to the now empty location.

3. Once moved in, ther should be a button presented to create an email to the person saying they have been placed in the doghouse (so..like..mailto??).

4. Maybe an image of the doghouse with them in it could attached to the email.

5. LATER: The state of the page could be kept so future visitors know that the person is in the Doghouse.

I have an old JavaScript page that kind of shows the functions:

FAMILY DOGHOUSE

Also, what I have done in FLASH (so far) is also shown at the bottom of the page.

1. Not sure how to make the action wait for the mouse click or drag!

2. Also, maybe a button, once the people decide who goes in the doghouse, to submit and fire the email??

When I chose this little project I thought it was easy, but I realize I have not a clue how to begin beyond making buttons and tweens.

Flash Text Disappears As Movie Loops?

Jan 11, 2010

I am making a flash movie, using text moving across the screen in semi transparency, sort of as a background. In the center is a white box, and content within that box. The semi transparent text scrolls back and forth throughout the movie. But when the movie loops back to the beginning , the white box and content within it vanish for a second...then reappear as the movie begins again. I don't want that microsecond vanish to happen but I don't know how to prevent it.
