I'm trying to make a game that looks low-resolution, and thus I'm upscaling everything by 2x. However, the game is to have a custom cursor, and it ruins the illusion if the cursor follows your mouse every pixel. I want the cursor to follow your mouse, but to snap to every two pixels so as to not ruin the illusion of low resolution.

View 0 RepliesI want to make a script that initially has a cursor I have chosen (an image) that is going to be "left" at a specific spot. The spots should be divided into a grid, meaning that if I am closest to point B, rather than point A, the object on the cursor should move/tween to that area. So far I have managed to find out how to move objects around freely and snap within one axis, but I need to specify some certain points that the object will adhere to. If it is to hard to make the cursor transform into the newly moved object then the cursor layer could simply disappear and another appear I would think.
View 7 RepliesI'm trying to code the snap to grid functionality. The dragged object should snap to the grid if the distance between the object bounds and a grid line is less than 5px. I found a way to do it if the object's rotation is 0 but it doesn't work if I rotate the object. I need a different approach. Can you point me into the right direction with the algorythm or any source code?

Is there another way to get the position of an object in a grid.
I have a MovieClip that when the update(); function is called, it checks the cells (on a grid) around it to see if there is an object there. If so it updates it's image to reflect that.
How i'm doing it now is something like 40 if/else/else if statements..
whenever i insert an object to this datagrid it show this error
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at Forms::LessonPlan/addLesson_clickHandler()
this is my code
for inserting an object
var obj:Object = new Object();
var temp:Object = new Object();
obj.activityid = arrayNames.selectedItem.activityid;

I am currently creating a game similar to cafe world, farmville etc (social game). Would like to know how could I make an object move in an isometric direction when my mouse move. For example, when I want to build a house, I click on the house build button, and when my mouse move, I want my house object (stored in the library) to be move together with my mouse in an isometric direction. To give you all a better impression of the solution i am looking for, click on this link for a sketch: [URL]. So I want something like only when my mouse move 20 units more than the original mouse position, then my house item should move to the next grid.
View 1 RepliesI've been working a game where you drag an object onto a grid. This then 'grows' over time. Once it has taken about 5 seconds to grow, the player can click on it (only 5 seconds for debugging reasons) and 'collect' money as a result. The problem I'm having however. Is that I cannot remove it once the timer even has occurred. I get the 2007 parameter error, child must be non null. Problem is, I don't see how it is null as I've already defined it? I'm rather lost - and somewhat new to AS3.
Code:
private function placeSeeds(e:MouseEvent):void {
var seedsRow:int=Math.floor((mouseY-300)/75);
var seedsCol:int=Math.floor((mouseX-150)/65);
// check tiles
if (seedsRow>=0&&seedsCol>=0&&seedsRow<3&&seedsCol<3&&itemsArray[seedsRow][seedsCol]==0) {
var placedSeeds:lolMC=new lolMC();// constructs the object

I am working on a project where I need an interactive matrix of 500x500 clickable elements. I thought this would be an easy task in actionscript3 but boy was I wrong. I was able to create a matrix where each element was a Sprite object with attached Mouse click event. But here the performance problems begin. FlashPlayer10 can handle up to 100x100 matrix, but when I increase my matrix I start getting script timeout in browser player... Here is how my "unfinished" matrix looks like.So how should I approach this problem? I was hoping flash will be able to handle so many elements, but I guess I was wrong. I want to have a pan control to pan around for objects off screen and of course zoom in/out control.It's true I'm not very professional in Flahs and actionscript but a friend who is told me this would be no problem implementing in AS3? I need this in flash as the thing needs to be hosted on website.
View 6 RepliesI have a clip that rotates to orient itself towards the mouse when the mouse is over a given area. When the mouse leaves the area, the clip snaps back to its original position.
1) the clip snaps directly towards the mouse at the moment the mouse enters the clip; I would like it to actually rotate;
2) the clip snaps directly back to its original position when the mouse leaves the clip; I would like it to ease back into position.

I want to check if my mouse is hovering over a specific object.

How can i make an object following my cursor ( but not directly) through a specific path ( something like a city plan) and every time my cursor change location the object would change path so it will stop where my cursor is?
View 7 RepliesI am trying to get an object to follow the mouse cursor only when the cursor is within a certain range of the object.
I would also like the object to stop when the cursor is directly over it, so that it becomes a selectable button.
Lastly, I would like to apply this to many objects, that don't overlap, but rather, "bounce off" of one another. An example of this is at

"ball_mc" of course, is the instance name of the object that I have created.

Basically, i have an empty stage, but for 2 objects a custom cursor (using the onclipevent mouse move, cursor hide, startdrag etc) and a movie clip of a little man (stick figure for now) all i want to do is, when i bring the cursor to the man and hold down on him, the cursor will goto frame 2, which will make it appear that the man i sitting on the cursor. at the same time the man symbol will be invisible and draggable. so that when i release the drag, the man will be put down somewhere else.

I want the cursor to disappear when it rolls over an object, then reappear when it rolls off. It works when I run it in Flash, it works when I view the html in Internet Explorer, it DOESN'T work in Netscape. The cursor disappears and doesn't come back till you move it out of the navigator window. Here's the code:
on (rollOver) {
loadMovie("movie.swf", place);
mouse.hide();
} on (rollOut) {
loadMovie("blank_movie.swf", place);
mouse.show();
}

View 7 RepliesI'm currently working with the OLAPDataGrid component and got stuck at a relatively simple task: I want to style the last row of the grid differently from the rest, so my cell item renderer needs to know whether he's rendering the last row with content in the overall grid, including those rows currently not rendered because they are outside the visible grid space. AdvancedGridListData's rowIndex property only gets me the row index of the renderer relative to the range of visible grid rows, i.e. when I scroll down the grid, a data item with an index greater than 0 gets the rpw index = 0.

View 6 Repliesobj1 is on top of obj2, covering it. obj2 has buttonMode set to true (so that it gives the mouse a hand cursor on mouseover). And obj2 has MouseEvent listeners, etc. But since obj1 is covering obj2, you can't actually click/mouseover obj2. How do I make it so that the mouse ignores obj1 and is able to interact with obj2 even though it is being covered?
View 3 RepliesI was wondering if there was a way of making your mouse cursor stick to an object for a period of time when clicked?
eg. If i clicked "about" then the mouse would stick to that button while it slid to a new location on the stage. Once the tweening stops, you can move the mouse again.
