ActionScript 2.0 :: Multiplying Objects Over Time
Jul 12, 2010
Was wondering if there is a script that can mutiply objects over the time line.So for example if one rock appears in frame 1, and then a 2nd rock in frame 2and a 3rd rock in frame 3, etc,But say starting on frame 4, six rocks would appear, and on frame 5, twelve rocks would appear...so that the rocks would appear exponentially for example.The numbers or accuracy does not matter, its more about displaying a number of rocks much faster along the time line, instead of 1 rock/frame.

I have this mc that responds to mouseX , only the mc is very short in frames, it's only 25 frames long. This way the mouseX is only the first 25 pixels of my stage, so it only responds to that. Is there any way I can multiply this value to, let's say, 20 times?

I have this code:
[code]....
It is called recursively. The problem is the alpha value augments, apparently multiplying itself. Why? I successfully remove the child.

I have the movie clip "movie" in my library and the button "btn" on the stage.Now everytime I release "btn", I want to add "movie" to the stage and have it play from predetermined coordinates (let's say _x = 20, _y = 20)...So far, I've tried
Actionscript Code:
on (release) {duplicateMovieClip("movie", "movie2", 1);}
but that doesn't do the trick because it doesn't multiply the displayed movies.Everytime you release "btn", "movie" breaks off and restarts,I want it to finish its animation and have ANOTHER one spawn at the origin...

When multiplying a floating point number that is very close to 1 with an int > 0, can it ever be interpreted as 1.
That is, if Math.random() returns its highest possible result (which is 1 step below 1.0), will
(int)(Math.random() * 8)
be 8 or 7?
For a practical example, can this often-used construct give an index out of bounds error:
someArray[(int)(Math.random() * someArray.length)];
I'm specifically interested in answers for Java and ActionScript 3, but I suppose they all use the same rules for floating point arithmetic, and answers for any platform would be useful.
Update: Though I already accepted an answer, I'd still appreciate confirmation that this can't go wrong in ActionScript 3 either, since a colleague reporting that he saw it go wrong once is what partly prompted me to ask this question.

Strange problem, least I think it is I just can't work out how to multiply two text boxes and then display it in another text box. I have tried the following but had no luck should these work thus some other code is messing it around or would non of these work;
box1.text = box2.text * box3.text;
box1.text = number(box2.text) * number(box3.text);

In my page i use animated swf for button. And at the moment page knows how many buttons there needs to be via category nodes in xml so i made a loop to load in the right number of same swf-s. Is there a bettery way to do that like load swf only once and than duplicate it via script? Or something else i did not think of?

I have a function that adds the values of an array together and displays the output in a textArea(myText).
The code below works fine, but the output number is "11.5" I need this to be "11.50" and again if we set the array index [1] to "0" instead of ".50" I would need to show "11.00" instead of "11" which is what I am getting now!
var myArray:Array = new Array(1.50,.50,0,9.50); function addValues(myArray:Array):Number{ var arraySum:Number = 0; for (var i:uint=0; i< myArray.length; i++){ arraySum += myArray[i]; } return arraySum } trace(addValues(myArray)); myText.text = String (addValues(myArray));

I am doing the following in actionscript in Coldfusion Flash Forms:
90 / 3.7
Gives me:
24.3243243243243
Whereas the calculator gives me:
24.32432432432432
Note the extra 2 at the end.
So my problem occurs when I am trying to get the original value of 90 by taking the 24.3243243243243 * 3.7 and then I get 89.9999999999 which is wrong.
Why is Actionscript truncating the value and how do I avoid this so I get the proper amount that the calculator gets?

i would like to basically represent a group of cells multiplying and dyeing. I have some data im pulling in, from an xml file and would like this to generate some cells. I have figures that change frequenly, so for example, if the figure increases i would like the cell to multiply and if the figure decreases i would like cells to die off.
If any one point me in the direction of some examples or give me some ideas about the best way to do this i would really appreciate it.
As you can see im not sure if i should be looking at flocking or recursion etc so

I am trying to calculate the values on user entered text fields (which only accept numbers) along with the values of user selected combo boxes. I have a function to a button:
reviewQ.calcBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, calcAns);
function calcAns(e:MouseEvent):void
{
reviewQ.calcAns_text.text = "Your calculated result is " +
[Code]....
Right now, all I am getting is the actual values entered in the text fields and selected in the combo boxes. How can I get the sum of this values to show on my "calcAns_text.text"?

Ok. So there are serveral methods to implement Collision detection like R-trees, Quadtrees, BSP trees Recursive Dimensional Clustering (RDC). Or maybe more.My problem is that I have about 6-8 enemies on stage, some of them moving some of them static and also I have the Hero who is shooting with three types of missiles at same time. So I get about 70-100 objects on stage at a time.My question is, which algorithm to use for this type of problem, and which is the common practice? Also which is the most efficient?I was thinking of implementing Quad trees but I read that thy can be slow, or I am wrong?

1. spawn an object at a random xy coordinate
2. move this object along the x axis from stage edge to stage edge
3. repeat steps 1 & 2 every 5 seconds
So far i have managed to get my object to spawn in a random place and move from side to side, however every 5 seconds it moves the current object to a random coordinate and continues to scroll on x axis instead of creating another object at a random coordinate.
Here is my code:
ActionScript Code:
var distance:Number = 5;
var timer:Timer = new Timer(5000);
timer.start();

I am having a problem with a scripted animation. I am trying to use the tween class to send three objects across the screen at once. For some reason, this tests fine in "test movie" but the swf stops the second two tweens at their initial points and tweens only the first one. As you can see from the code, they all have different var names and object names.
var medTween:Tween = new Tween(logo3D4, "x", None.easeNone, 1200, -1000, 6, true);
var bigTween:Tween = new Tween(logo3D3, "x", None.easeNone, -500, 600, 8, true);
var smallTween:Tween = new Tween(logo3D2, "x", None.easeNone, 1000, -1300, 5, true);

Is there a way to scale up an object from its center even if its registeration point is at the top left? can that be done using TweenMax?2. can I apply the same tween on two objects at the same time? basically what I want to do is load up an image to the stage, and then tween its scale from 0 to the original size along with another movie clip behind it that would form some sort of a border for the image. and I want to scale them up from the center.

I have to incorperate flash animations aswel. Im just wondering about a drag and drop function. I have a fair idea how to do a basic drag and drop function.
Message_MC.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,dragPoly);Message_MC.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,dropPoly);
function dragPoly(e:MouseEvent):void{ Message_MC.startDrag(); }function dropPoly(e:MouseEvent):void{ Message_MC.stopDrag(); }
I want to be able to drag multiple objects at the same time and also play a sound.is this possible?
if(Message_mc is clicked and dragged){
then drag Encryption_mc and Decryption_mc
also play ("Song.mp3")
}

I want to communicate with an object within a loaded swf. I know I can use this event listener and function to do so right when the swf has completed loading:
imageLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadSections)
function loadSections(event:Event):void { event.target.content.mc.y+=2
}
But I want to be able to manipulate a given object from the loaded swf at any time not just when the loading is complete. So basically as long as the swf is loaded, is there a way to manipulate objects and call functions within that swf?
Both the external and host swf are AS3.

I have a fixed amount of words. Lets say 20 words. I want each of these words to be put into symbols - so i have 20 symbols (box1...box20). Now i want the boxes to fall from the top of the screen and until they reach below the screen. But (and this is where i'm lost) I want to have them fall at different speeds AND I want to control how many boxes falls at a time. Starting out with one box and when this box is out of the screen I want to control the amount of boxes/symbols entering the screen next.
A function telling that next there should be i.e. three boxes entering and falling/floating across the screen (from just above the top of the screen untill they all have reached the bottom). And i want to be able to call a function which starts X boxes - even before the existing boxes in the scenes has dropped). It would be nice to have a function, ie. fallBox(3) , which may be called at any time.

I have a CS4 document with many objects, motion paths over multiple layers. I want to scale everything, including the motion paths of each object. I've tried to do this by Clicking 'Edit Multiple Frames', then 'Selecting All Frames' and finally scaling everything via the Transform panel. Everything appears to have been scaled apart from the motion paths. Is there a way to do this?

How to make somethig that will check all var's on the objects in the _root time line? lets say "allObjects" means all the objects in the _root time line:
Code: Select allif(_root[allObjects]._loc1==1){
doSomething()
}
So lets say that I have 20 pieces of an "A" MC and one of a "B" MC, 10 of the "A" MC have the code "_loc1=1" and the rest have "_loc1=0" and if I roll over the 10 A MC that have _loc1=1 the B MC will gotoAndStop(2) but if I roll over the rest of the A MC's nothing happens.
(the A MC's have different names like: planetX; ship21; enemy61; ... )And a var in the _root time line will have the name of the MC that has the mouse over it (rolled over it)So something like: var MCname = "planetX"

I have the following prototype, which is used by typing objName.fadeIn(100, 3);this is all well and good, although when I start to use it on multiple mc's at once the playback becomes quite choppy and nasty..
Code:

how to prevent any two objects from overlapping each other each time they are randomly played?
i make them randomly appear using the code below but some of them appear on top of the other.
onClipEvent(load) {
_x=Math.floor(Math.random()*271)+120;
_y=Math.floor(Math.random()*265)+120;

I want the stage to react every time some changes are made to certain objects. Is there a way to write custom Event? I could of course modify this object, but I would like to know if there is any more OOP way to do it. And events ARE OOP, ain't they?
