I'm building a continous move in flash, and I'm displaying some text and images and want to hold the timeline for about 20 seconds and then resume play again. I'm trying to write a simple timer in AS to keep from having to create 10000 frame long movie clips. Here's what I have so far:
stop();
this.onEnterFrame {
time = getTimer();
if (time == 20) {
play();
}}
Unfortunately, this isn't working for me, and 'm unsure why. I suspect two things,
A: my "time" var takes only a snapshot value of the timer and not a continuous value, so the timer never reaches the value of 20. Or,
B: I have somesort of syntax wrong and the if never gets a chance to load.
Any tutorials or source files for the timer. Just a simple timer that counts down by minutes and seconds for 10 minutes. The closest I got are a bunch of codes that I'm not really good at translating. Just a simple timer that will trigger the end quiz page when time is up.
I have a ActionScript 3.0 project and I have a timer that is running on 1000 millisecond intervals. I would like to delay this timer for 1500 milliseconds perform an action and start the timer again after the delay. I thought I could do this easily, but I'm having trouble, would it be better to stop the timer and perform the action and then listen for the action to be completed to start the timer again?
I am wondering if when the user clicks, is there any way to delay this action from occurring for a few seconds? For example, if the user clicks, this action won't happen for 2 seconds. Is there any code I can add before or around it to make this happen?
i have a very simple animation in flash CS4. My image travels from point X to point Y over 90 frames.I would like the image to stop at frame 45 for a few seconds, before continuing.
I'm using tweenMax and I want a tween to start after the mouse has been hovering over the button for about 2 seconds.
Now, I have figured out the 'delay' function but that is not that useful because it just registers the fact that the mouse is over the button and starts the tween 2 seconds later, regardless of where the mouse is on the screen.I basically want the button to become active after the mouse has been over it for 2 seconds.
I have 40 frames on a timeline, each frame has an tweening script below: import fl.transitions.*; import fl.transitions.easing.*; TransitionManager.start(week_2,{type:Fade, direction:Transition.IN, duration: 12, easing:Strong.easeOut}) And on the main timeline for the functions and buttons play/pause/next/previous is working good except, I want to delay every frame for like 10 seconds.
I've a site where consumer can take a live meeting with the beauty consultant. The problem I'm facing is during the video chat. Basically there is a delay of 5 seconds between Video and Audio when I access the site from out of my network but when I access it within my network (VPN) then it's work fine.
I've build a simple video chat application. The problem is that there is a delay of seconds between video display i.e. user1 video motion change displayed bit late at the user2 window. I'm using FMS 3.5 and FLEX.. IS THIS PROBLEM RELATED TO THE BANDWIDTH. My FMS bandwidth is 256kbps.
I just need a simple way for flash to delay the execution of a group of actions for a few seconds.
Here is the code I need delayed:
_root.randomnumber=(random(20)) if (_root.randomnumber<=8){_root.commentbox="Hit!"} if (_root.randomnumber<=8){_root.enemyhp-=15, nextFrame() } else {_root.commentbox="Miss!" }
How can I make an image appear (a button) after a delay of say 15 seconds?
I need the image to display after 15 seconds, and then stay. I have read to use gettimer or setInterval, but I'm not sure how to do it in my particular case. In very rough terms, I need something like this:
onEnterFrame: setInterval to 15000 and then _root.button.gotoAndPlay(2); (this will display my image) clearInterval
my normal work day involves screen sharing with a programmer while we engineer the software.We are currently working on a site that involves flash .as3(created with flash CS3) talking with an .asmx web service (created in Visual Web Developer 2005) that talks to a sql (2008)database.When can push or pull data from the database successfully, but we are experiencing a 15 second delay if more than one request from the database is made at the same time. i.e. two customers login at the same time, or one customer logs in and another submits changes to their account.
The second request will not be instant until 15 seconds have elapsed In other words, if someone sends logs in and another person logs in 10 seconds later, the wait will be 5 seconds.Of course, the delay is cumulative...so if 3 people log in simultaneously, there is a 30 second wait. Gross.This only occurs when we are trying to access the database...flash and the web service seem to talk great together otherwise.
Basically I want to recreate a sound installation that I made a couple of months ago which used Logic Express and a Tape Delay effect to take ambient sound captured by a mic, delay its output by 3 seconds, and then play it into the headphones. All without recording anything and in realtime.I've basically got this far, which lets me hear the mic input through my headphones loud and clear. Now all I want to do is apply a 3 second delay to the input before it outputs. Do I have to send the audio to a buffer where it can be constantly stored and rewritten?
Code: //Create a new Microphone var mic:Microphone = Microphone.getMicrophone();
var timer:Timer = new Timer(x); basically x is an array... when timer.start() is invoked
it runs, the first count is 1000 ms, then the second 800 ms, and the third 6200 ms and so on. In other words, it's a dynamic change in the delay and not a continuous delay of x ms.
I'm experiencing an annoying issue with a movie clip button. The movie clip is linked to a class which adds a rollover and rollout effect. The issue I'm having is that, even though the button is in frame 1, the button doesn't react to the mouse for some seconds into the movie. The only thing I can think is that it's the class itself, but I'm not certain. Here's the class:-
I've got a problem that must be simple to solve but it seems beyond me, I'm new to AS3 so please be as explicit as you can in your explanation. I have a timer counting down from 60 seconds, what I want though is when the user clicks, ten seconds gets added to the time. I've tried many different ways but none work, I understand why they don't work but I can't think of a way that does.[code].....
have a countdown timer counting down from 60 seconds. What I would like to happen is when the user clicks on the stage I would like the timer to increase by 10 seconds and then carry on counting down. e.g The user clicks when the timer is at 45 seconds so then the time jumps to 55 seconds and resumes counting down, whilst the time is displayed in a text box.
I asked in another forum and they pointed me to a link on adobe for the delay property. I gave this a go and I got it to add 10 seconds but then it kept on firing every 10 seconds (as you might expect) but not really what I was after.
here is the code for the timer.
Code: var count:Number = 60; var myTimer:Timer = new Timer(1000,count); myTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, countdown); myTimer.start();
Here is an extract of code from something im making:
if (MC_battleTrigR1a.hitTest(this._x, this._y, true)) { if (random(220) == 0) { //random(220) the code is onEnterFrame and so this random function is called
[Code]....
The player walks into an area, within a random amount of time or after 5 seconds it should send the player to the frame labelled: battle It works with the random(220) but I dont know how to make it definetly go to frame: battle after 5 seconds. I dont know how to use setInterval correctly, I have tried and failed.The code is nested in onEnterFrame fps: 24 frame label: treePath frame number: 17
I am trying to delay the execution of the code within a function. But it is not working. I would like content of the doTour() function execute 25 seconds of interval.
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.
possible to have a timer that works inside a 'for' loop? I have created a timer but it only activates each time the frame is run through. I have a for loop with i++ so that I can put objects on the page with a small pause between them. The i++ loop puts all the movieclips on the page simultaneously. I need a delay and a loop because the shuffled arrays will be reset each time the frame refreshes.
I'm new to concepts of AS 3 but i'm stumbling through it.So i'm looking to the Fourm for some Mentor ship
I have a simple Regular Flash slide show with 4 slides and an intro label. I need my Intro label to have a Timer or Delay event that holds on the "Intro" Label for a certain amount of time before the Timer expires and calls a function that tells FLASH to go on to slide "Slide 1" label.
The trick is i need this delay to run everytime the Timeline is at the "Intro" label as i have an animation playing while the timer or delay event counts down and finally at end goes to label "Slide 1" Can anyone share some simple code snipets that would point me in the right direction to accomplish this using AS3 ?
There seems to be a time delay problem when the slideshow is playing. It will start playing, but as soon as I click on the next or previous button to view another clip it will mess up the delay time and screw up when the pictures will play. Is there a way on how I can fix this ... I attached a link to see what is happening. The following script is what I have playing for the images.
i have a slideshow with a delay of for example 3 seconds, and a preloader which is a line with a 100px final length.i start preloading next image.now if the time until next image loads is longer than slideshow delay, i will show next image as soon as it loads.if the time until next image loads is shorter that than slideshow delay, i want to wait additional time until delay and then show the image.the problem is how do i represent smooth line width grow (being enter frame or tween) by calculating/comparing 2 values together (delay and loader percent, which goes from 0 - 100) ?if my line growth represent just a slideshow delay, then when it gets to an end, if next image still hasnt loaded, then it wont look good if line has come to an end, but i still have to wait.
