ActionScript 2.0 :: Playing Short Animation With Time Delay
Feb 18, 2009
I have a short animation that I want to pause for 5 seconds and then play again. Now I am using acionScript 2 to get this done.
Here is the code.
stop();
function triggerNext () {
var z = setInterval (changeAd, 15000);
}function startAgain(){
gotoAndPlay(1);
}
triggerNext()
Now this works the first 2 times. But when the third time rolls around it seems to start and the start again. This progressively gets worse as time goes on.

I have created a simple tween letter animation in AS2. There are two letters (a and b) on the stage that I have to animate and display one by one. Now both are displayed at a time. x and y position of each letter also has been set. Can I set time delay between first and second letter? I have attached my fla. file.
ActionScript Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
a_mc._x = 137;
a_mc._y = 215;

Im working on a small drag and drop project and for the life of me I cant seem to work out how to get my movie to delay before it goes to the next frame.
Basically when a clip is dropped onto the target I need a short delay of about 5 seconds before going to frame 2.
I know that I need to set a variable but cant work out how to utilise it [code]...

I have an array of menu items that I'm trying to display in a sequence with a short delay between showing each item in 3 columns. Without manually creating individual text fields and putting them on many frames, how would I do this with actionscript?

I have a preloader that works fine when I test i with flash. I publish it and then go to View and Simulate Download. Everything works fine.
But when I upload it to my server it works fine util I hit the reload button, all it does is do the short intro animation to display the preloader and just sits there.
I have attatched the preloader class wich is pretty straight forward.

I've got a little animation that I'm going to embed in my website. I'd like it to start playing, say, 10 seconds after the page is loaded.
Is there an Actionscript command that effectively says "start play after 10 seconds"?
Or do I need to just add a bunch of blank frames within the animation to effectively start roughly 10 seconds in?

I have a "News Bar" on my flash site that plays a movieclip I created to display the news. I would like a one-time delay of around 2.5 seconds before the movieclip starts playing. I'm comfortable with flash and am learning AS3 more and more everyday.

I am embedding an mp3 into my Flex project for use as a sound effect, but I am finding that every time I play it, there is a delay of about half a second from when I call .play() to when you can hear the sound. This makes it weird because I want the sound effects to sync to game events. My mp3 itself is only about a fifth of a second long so it isn't because of the contents of the mp3.
I'm embedding with
[Embed(source="assets/Tock.mp3")]
[Bindable]
public static var TockSound:Class;
[Code]....
I know there's a delay because the sound plays about a half second after the Alert displays. I did consider that maybe it was the initial loading time of constructing the TockSound, but the delay is there on all the subsequent calls as well.
How can I avoid this delay on playing a sound?
Update: It turns out this delay is only present when playing the swf on Linux. I believe it is a Linux-specific flaw in Adobe's flash player.

Does anyone know how to:stop a movieclip on mouse click, make the movieclip wait for, say, 3 seconds and then assume playing again from the same frame that it stopped on
(The movieclip is an instance on the main stage, the actual footage is placed in a seperate mc)
Im using Flash 8 (gave up on 10 as I realised I would have to post questions here on how to make a simple button )

I have recently updated to Flash CS4 and AS3 from Flash 8 - apart from one issue I have with the Sound Object. There seems to be a delay in the loaded MP3 playing when told to. This means that I am unable to add SFX to the game I am developing for a client, because the sound plays about 1-2 seconds after it is told to play. How to tee the Sound up, so that it plays immediately?
The process I am using is this:
Class defined to load all game assets defined in XML
All Sounds are loaded into their own Sound Object and a reference to each is held in an array and passed to the relevant Class (i.e. Player). The relevant Class tells the reference to the Sound to play - it plays, but 2 seconds after the collision detection Event has told the sound to play.

I have l logo animation but i don't want it to play every time a user runs over it with mouse. I'd like it to start playing after the user has stayed on the banner for 1 second (30 frames in my case). So if the user leaves the logo before 1 second, the animation wouldn't start.
Can it be done with actionscript? If so then how I use flash for tweened animations and am not familiar with programming languages. So a code examlpe (or a link to one) would be very welcome
The code to activate the animation is as follows:

I have a rotating menu that when clicked rotates and loads in swf movies, OnClick.
The problem I seem to be having is that because the swf movies load in on click it seems to be causing the rotation of the menu not to run smooth.
Question: Is it possible to get the swf movies to load in once the action of the click has completed its action. some kind of 2 second delay before the movies load in??
what happens: you can click or mouse scroll through the menu, when you click, the action repositions the selected Item (ActiveItem) in the center and resizes larger. this works great, is it possible after this action is complete to then load in the swf movies?
to see how the movie runs at the moment this is the link: [URL]
you will see at the moment onClick the movies load straight away which makes the rotation not smooth when rotating around.
I can't seem to get the mouse scroll to work the same function as the click at the moment also.....thats for another day

The code show's the movieclip "nav" when "bg_inv" is clicked, and fades it out when 5 seconds have passed. What I want to achieve is this:When I click a button inside "nav" called "next_btn" the delay needs to be reset, so that "nav" doesn't fade out until five seconds have passed since I clicked the button.
Code:
nav._visible = false;
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;

I have a few animations that run on different scenes each time a scene is loaded the external audio should start with it. Well here is the thing the animation always starts before my audio files and each scene gets bugged. I need to create an action that only allows my scene to start with the audio and also starts loading the next audio so it wont be dellayed.
On the first scene I have the following code:
scene 1 frame 1
var autoPlay:Boolean;
if(!autoPlay){
stop();}
scene 1 frame 2 animation starts and audio 1 loads
import flash.media.Sound;
