ActionScript 2.0 :: Naming Frame Variables?
Jul 29, 2007
I created a slot machine and it works properly but i need it to do more. Currently when you spin the Reel, if you get any 4 of a kind its a jackpot. I need it so if you hit 4 "7's" lets say its different than hitting 4 "Bar's".On the main reel I have 4 frames with movie clips, each having a different (chip) and the end. I have set the random() function on them so it is completely random on how they hit. So my question is...how do I set a variable name for the frames so I know that frame 1 is a "bar", frame 2 is a "7", frame 3 is a "cherry" and so on. That way when I write the "if" statements, I can compare them so a "7" is better than a "bar".

I have two varables 'number1' and 'number2', which is set by two movie clip symbols depending on the frame they are on (eg. Frame 1 for 'object1' sets 'number1' to 1, etc.). The frame is manually selected by the user. I have a third movie symbol 'object3'. When I click a button 'enter' I want to go to the frame number of 'object3' equal to 'number1' + 'number2'.

I use flashIDE(CS5) to create and organize my assets for flash game. Some movieclips need to have specific params.I am typing them at a MC's first frame:
var shape :String= "circle";
var material :String = "wood";
And then make them Export as MovieClip.For AS3 coding I use Flash Builder 4. When I create new Instance of this MC and trace values I get "null". But if before trace gotoAndStop(1); typed then my values are ok ("wood", "circle").

I have a Flash project with several labeled frames. The user will be doing a lot of moving about those frames, so I wanted to simplify my navigational interface code-wise. There are six buttons, I have attached functions to them like so:
Actionscript Code:
topnavbt.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,lookUp);function lookUp(event:MouseEvent):void {
[code]...
...instead, I get "TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert "skylights" to flash.display.FrameLabel."
I can't seem to wrap my head around what these errors are saying, but I'm sure there's a simple solution I'm missing. I think I just don't know how to define the frame label correctly.

are all variables written as global variables in Flash CS3? Is there a way for some variables just to work for some frames?

How would I go about transfering variables from one from to another?
What I want to do is send data from the first frame to a database then retrieve info back and populate form field on the second frame.
At the moment I have the code within the second frame doing everything! What want is to send the username and password enter in the first frame textboxes to a database then displaying the returned info on the second frame.

Well, I made a login page with flash and php. So I was wondering how can I make it so that I can send variables to another frame.
Like I have a button, when you press it, it connects to the database, and it checks your login. Then it gets all the variables. So how can I get the variables for every page on my flash project?
The only way I can think of now, is setting a dynamic text to the variable..

how do I access the variable from another MovieClip and frame? That's about the structure of the clip:
Layer1:ActionscriptA(Frame)
Layer2: MovieClip1+
-----------------|_layer2: BoneColor(MC) +
[Code]...
I tried to do this differently, for example
var clr:BoneColor = MovieClip1.BoneColor.ActionscriptB.clr

OK this might take a wile to explain but ill give it a go. I'm trying to make a sort f upgrade menu for my Flash game (AS2) but I'm a bit stuck. Ok my char has got this action script on it.
onClipEvent(load){
_global.speed = 1
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
[Code]....
That all works fine but what i want to do is make it that when you click a button the var speed will change. I can do that quite easily with this code
on(press){
_global.speed += 1
}
and that works fine two but what i want to do is have the button for upgrading the speed on a different frame (ie. the upgrade menu)
So on frame 1 is the moving char and there is a button linking frame 1 to frame 2 (upgrade menu) and on that frame it has the button for upgrading the var speed and then a button linking frame 2 back to one but it doesn't work. I think i no why because on the char is says onClipEvent(load){ _global.speed = 1 }
so that means that the var speed will revert back to 1 when you go back to the first frame.

If we have declared some variables on a particular frame, say frame 20 in the actionscript coding window, can we use these variables defined on a frame in a class? Is there something like a global variable which must be declared to do this?The class extends to movieClip and it has been encapsulated by a movieClip which is then put on the stage to run it when the corresponding frame plays.

I'm working on a dating sim (don't ask) and I already figured out most of the variables, but I have one problem. When the experience with one of the characters is a certain ammount, I want to play a different frame of dialouge.
Is there a way to play a new frame, only if the variable equals 10?

Got some external classes, say MyClass.as MyClass.as has a static variable called foo
So, ordinarily in other AS files I can call this with MyClass.foo = bar;
However, this seems to be different in timeline scripts. Every time I try this I get the reference with a static type error 1119: Access of possibly undefined property foo through a reference with static type flash.display:DisplayObjectContainer.
I've tried doing an import MyClass, etc... nothing seems to be firing.

I am very new to Flash AS3 and Flash Professional CS5. What I am try to do is show frames 4 to 10 (it just say CORRECT in bold) when a user selects the correct answer.On Frame 10 I have the code say "gotoAndPlay(2);", the problem is on Frame 2 I have action-script on that page and all my variables are re-declared and they all get reset as Frame 2 is loaded.How should I prevent the variables from being reset each time frame 2 is reloaded?

I have 2 buttons in a flash movie with the following codes. They open a new URL that also contains a flash movie and it sends the variable "nFrame" and a value.
Button1:
Code:
on (release) {
getURL("goats.html?nFrame=1");
}
Button2:
Code:
on (release) {
getURL("goats.html?nFrame=2");
}
When the new URL opens I want the flash movie to begin at a particular frame depending on what variable "nFrame" is equal to. I tried placing this code in the first frame to do it but it didn't work, the movie just loops and loops and doesn't stop at any frame.
Code:
if(nFrame=1) {
gotoAndStop("cheese");
} else {
gotoAndStop("wine");}
}

In my flash program I have everything on one frame. In the actionscript on that frame, I made a variable called currentButton and set it to the first button, to keep track of which button is currently pressed. In the click function this variable is changed to whatever button was clicked.Now, I didn't think this would work, because seeing that the one frame is being played over and over, (there's no stop() command in there) I thought currentButton would keep being reset every frame. To my surprise, it worked just fine. Not that I'm complaining, but I'd like to know why it's doing that. Shouldn't all the code on the frame be done every time the frame is played, including the part that sets currentButton to button1?

I am trying to create an AS3 Fla to score a quiz's results. The quiz is a separate swf that stores its results to a shared object ("G1"), and both the quiz swf and this new scoring swf would reside on the same website.
I've tried scripting the AS3 in the new scoring Fla but I keep getting error messages.
So far, here's what I have that doesn't work.
[Code]....
The goal is to open the scoring swf, populate some variables with the values from the SO, then (not yet tried in the script) apply some if/else conditions to show specific results based on scores.

I have written some code to read and compare variables and then to jump to a particular frame based on the results (pretty simple stuff). It works fine when I use a button to trigger the code but I want it to happen automatically.
I have tried using the OnEnterFrame thingy but it doesn't work and I tried just placing the code on frame 1 and letting it do its thang but that didn't work either....
I'm using the .swf in a third party program and using the API for that program to supply the values.
here is the code:
_parent.InitializeExternalVars();
var m_varStrEndSlide;
function display(){

I thought that there was a way to be able to name array indexes. Like instead of myArray[0], it could be myArray["tileFour"]. I thought that instead of using index numbers one could use index words.
