All variables start offset by 1 (a=1, b+2, c+3, etc..)I want the values to all start over when they reach 7.You can see the lower half of code displays these images, basically rotating around a circle.What is most efficient way to script? I assume an array.
a += 1; if (a==7) {a=1};
b += 1; if (b==7) {b=1};
c += 1; if (c==7) {c=1};

Basically I have an array map and I want to be able to create a little bit of code that counts how many there are of each number in the map:
[Code]....
Currently there are 3 number 5s but this will change and I want to create a bit of code that can change with them amount of 5s in each map. Unfortunately I have no idea where to start, can anyone give me a hand?
I know that
Code:
for (var i = 0; i<5; i++)
will loop through some script adding 1 to i until i equals 5

I need some help understanding for loop and timers and what I want to do is set the timer so it counts. Every 3 seconds add 1 to the count and then call a function. If the count reaches 3 then reset every thing and start over. But it isn't working the way I want it too.
Code:
//create timer for slide show
var delay:uint = 3000;
var myTimer:Timer = new Timer(delay);

I understand the basics of reference counting but I am having trouble getting my head around one possibility. What happens while a class function/method is running - suppose the class instance removes the last reference to itself while executing - how does that get dealt with internally and is it dangerous? Perhaps while a class' function is running a temporary extra reference is held or else the garbage collector is otherwise not allowed to delete it.
e.g.
class Something
{
function DoSomething

View 2 RepliesI have this code for my timer, it counts down alright. BUT it is very buggy it most commonly counts down by 2 when it is meant to count down by one I have even watched my brother play our game and it went fron 20 to 7

if (cur_timer > 0)[code]....
Is there a script that counts how many time a projector has been open?I'm looking to make a demo projector that can only open a project 1, 2 or 3 times.
View 1 Repliesin AS2 I used to use this kind of code to get certain items in a movie clip :
PHP Code:
for (var sItem in this) { // do something with this[sItem]}
How do I do similar things in AS3? I mean, how can I access this[sItem] in AS3?
Does anyone know how to create a numeric display that counts down the time of a flv. For example if the time of the clip is 60, as soon as the clip starts to play it counts down 59 and so on.
View 1 Repliestimer = int(80-(getTimer()-/:starttime)/1000);
if (Number(timer) == 0) {
with (_root) {
gotoAndPlay(70);
}
timer = 0;
}
Above is my code on a frame in a movie clip. The movie clip contains a dynamic text box that counts down. The variable name and the name of the clip is timer. when the timer reaches 0 it is supposed to go frame 70 which says sorry you did not make it, instead it goes to the frame that says congratulations... What am I doing wrong?
-Firstly can some one please explain what is meant by Object and Function in a profiling environment.
-Secondly, why does the Object and Function count increase when I repeatedly set the text property of a textfield:[code]
I need to make a ticker counter that starts from 0 - 0 rand and counts up for this portion of dialogue.

When using to load XML file, I have used Event.COMPLETE, Event.Progress, IOEventListener. Since listeners take up memory ressources.
I was wondering if it's a good way and habit to optimize after it has been completed locaded by removing them.

So I have 10 buttons, and I would like them to all do similar actions, but I was wondering if it's possible to optimize the code somehow.
When you rollover the button I would like it to alpha IN, and then when you rollout I'd like it to alpha OUT. Lastly, onPress I'd like to go to a different keyframe in the scene.[code]...

View 4 RepliesI'm building an application in Actionscript using Flash assets, and my frame rate becomes very low (~7 fps) when I attempt to render 20+ assets on the screen, even though most of those assets are stopped movie clips. I've tried setting .cacheAsBitmap to true, which helps a bit, but not enough. What else can I do to get the frame rate up? I've noticed that some movie clips seem to impact it more than others, but I'm not sure how to alter them to make them easier to render.

However, I am not sure how efficient I programmed the main loop.

I build games, which tend to run slowly when there are more than a dozen or so graphics being moved about the stage. I feel that my code is clean (I have researched code optimization) but not sure how I can make improvements with graphics. Currently, all graphics are created in Photoshop and imported to Flash as .png (I need semi-transparency, hence the .png format). I then set the image quality to low inside the library.
Every image usually resides within its' own sprite or movieClip. My games seem to slow down a fair deal when an image is introduced (such as a semi-transparent cloud drifting across the screen). Is there a special way to handle images when performance is an issue? I've only heard of stuff like cacheAsBitmap and other such fancy terms.
i'm making a website and it has some parts with flash such as the background. You can see the site here: [URL] You will see that the preloading of the background is too long beacuse i have 4 images as background in the library. the images are 950 x 650 pixel jpegs that in the library use the Photo(compression). So when the swf is on loading it take a lot of time.

I'm just installing Apparat, and I'm interested in using it to optimize my SWFs.
On its google code page some optimizations are listed out .. sliding window, flowgraph ... so is it possible to make use of these optimizations? how?
I have heard of the -reducer command, does it perform the optimizations? are there other commands you can use? or do you have to build apparat yourself and access it via scala?
I have this code:
ActionScript Code:
variables.ex1 = this["ex" + exerciseID].text;
variables.ex2 = this["ex" + exerciseID].text;
variables.ex3 = this["ex" + exerciseID].text;
variables.ex4 = this["ex" + exerciseID].text;
variables.ex5 = this["ex" + exerciseID].text;
variables.ex6 = this["ex" + exerciseID].text;
variables.ex7 = this["ex" + exerciseID].text;
But I want to optimize this. I want those variables "variables.ex1, variables.ex2, etc" are dynamic.
