ActionScript 2.0 :: Stop MovieClip That Moves From It?
Nov 17, 2003
I built a game similar to the old Atari 2600 game Freeway. The object is to get the chicken to cross the highway while avoid becoming roadkill. It works fine. I kept tweaking it. I set it up so that when you reach a certain score the cars move faster. Now, I want to set it up that when you reach a certain score the player earns a stop sign. The ultimate goal is by pressing "s" the cars (which are all movie clips) will stop until the chicken makes it across to the other side.[code]...

I have created an animation by making a series of frames. So now I have a FLA file with the frames in.So far, so good.I can export this as a movie and create a SWF file.I can use this SWF file in a HTML document and get it to display in the browser.This is where I hit a brick wall. I have done a lot of searches but I am getting something wrong. I need to adjust this FLA/SWF so that in the HTML file, when the SWF is first loaded it does not play. If the mouse moves over the object it starts/continues playing. If the mouse moves away it stops playing.

To start things off, I use Flash CS3.moving menu that moves on its own when the mouse moves around it. Like the menu moves up when the mouse moves down.[URL]i have found similar tutorials for what i wanted.. but they are AS2 or older versions of flash..and what i needed is more along the lines of AS3 as that's what my class is learning and using.Does anyone know of an AS3 or anything that works with Flash CS3 tutorial thats what I'm asking?

I have a stage with a movie clip with the instance name of "mc". Currently I have a code that is suppose to move the player left and right, and when the left or right key is released, the "mc" slides a little bit. The problem I'm having is that making the "mc" move to the left works, but the exact some code used for the right doesn't.
[Code]...
I just don't get why when you press the left arrow its works completely fine, but when you press the right arrow it doesn't respond. It is literally the same code.

I have created a button with this function to minimize my application window, in AS3 for an AIR app:
function mbtn(e:MouseEvent):void
{
stage.nativeWindow.minimize();
}
On the stage, I have an empty movieclip which loads an AS class file. It works fine and shows up where I have put the empty movieclip which acts as a holder. But, if I hit the button that minimizes the window, and then open my application again the content of my AS class move some pixels below and go off stage.

I am trying to modify this code that is attached to and alpha engine. It is the same code from the tutorial: Calculating Distance
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
xdist = Math.round(_root._xmouse - _parent._x);
ydist = Math.round(_root._ymouse - _parent._y);[code]....
What i need to know is whether or not i can modify this to calculate the distance of the mouse from the clip, even if it is contained in another clip that moves around the stage.

I have a few MovieClips that are motion-tweened via the timeline. I have a function that places a glow filter on the tweened movieclip. The glow works, but... the movieclip no longer moves. I found that if I tween via actionscript (AS3) that it does tween. However, I have about 1000 movieclips, all w/ different tween properties.Is there a (much easier) walk around or am I going to have to code for a few days/weeks?

Is there a code that will flip a MovieClip horizontally (e.g mirror image) when the mouse moves over a certain x-coordinate.For example, we'll say the movieclip is called "man" .When the mouse is on the left side of the man, the man faces right. However when the mouse is on the right side of the man, he now faces left. Of more simply, he 'flips over' when the mouse changes sides.Is there an actionscript code to tell the movieclip to do this or do i have to manyally free transform the movieclip?

I have a basic script that moves a movieclip to the opposite Y position of the mouse pointer:
Code:
var cP = this.createEmptyMovieClip("centerPoint", 1);
cP._x = Stage.width / 2;
cP._y = Stage.height / 2;
var myBox = cP.attachMovie("boxMC", "myBox", 2, {_y:cP._y});
cP.onMouseMove = function() {
myBox._y = (cP._ymouse * -0.9);
};
Everything works great, but I'd really love to be able to ease the box to it's Y position, rather than moving it to it's final position immediately. I'm having a difficult time with it because the box is moved based on the mouse position, which obviously doesn't ease.

I've tried a couple dozen things to try and stop this movie clip, even down to the bare bones basics and its not working.I have an imported TIFF sequence that i imported onto the stage of a movie clip. Its 73 frames long, i want it to stop on frame 73.So i add the usual stop(); command but it doesn't stop, it keeps looping.On the main layer i put this movieclip in i have an AS layer that also has stop(); and moviclip.stop();But it doesn't stop at all. it just keeps repeating.I put it down to this bare basic setup just to see if i could even stop it. But its not stopping.Layers -> and stuffScene 1Content - movieclipMCActionScript - stop(); movieclipMC.stop();Movieclip - keyframes consisting of image sequence 1-73. frame 73 has stop();

I have some bombs like this :
var sjunkBomb:Array = new Array;
for (var i:int = 0; i < sjunkBombMaxAntal; i++) {
var bomb = new sjunkbomb;[code]....
Each movieclip sjunkBomb contains an animated movieclip. When the bombs reach the bottom I want to stop the inside animation.I guess it's better to stop them so they affect the rest of the game if there are a lot of bombs. I know how to hide them with sjunkBomb[x] .visible = false; but if I want to stop them? sjunkBomb[x].stop(); doesn't work!?

I have a movie clip that scrolls side to side when you rollover it but when the mouse is off it continues to scroll - I need the movieclip to slow to a stop when the mouse rolls of the movieclip. I've have been playing arounds with the hitest code (red) but this does not fix it... Its prolly a simple problem - I am not much of a coder....

i'm trying to get a movieclip within a movieclip to stop playing when it reaches its last frame. let me describe my problem: it should start playing when the user rolls over the movieclip that is containing it(i'll call this mc1, and the movieclip within it mc2). i've put a stop action in mc2's last frame but it won't stop and plays again and again. one thing i should point out is that there is a variable in mc1 that tells the movie whether it's ok to play the movie in reverse when the user rolls over mc1, if this is false, that means that it plays normally(not in reverse). i'm using "play()" to play mc1 when the user rolls over it and this is where i think the problem is; even though the last frame of mc2 has a stop action, it is somehow told to play again? anyways, this is just a guess, i haven't figured out why or how to fix it. i'm not sure if my explanation was too hard to understand so i'll try to clarify it if anyone wants me to.

I thought I had a handle on the timer class (even just a beginners understanding), but I'm having trouble with it.I have an event listener for the timer and it starts fine i get a delay, then a tween,but when I place a myTimer.stop();in the fuction the listener called (to stop it) it dosent stop.it will repeat placing the first image, and then call the first function again
......Wait its placing the first image in (a couple of lines before the start), so Its restarting the whole movie, not just the function?
myTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, tweenone)
myTimer.start();
function tweenone (event:Event):void[code]...........

I'm working on a Flash project where all of my code is in an external Document.as file.
How would I go about setting up an intro MovieClip that runs and finishes before other MovieClips are loaded? What happens right now is that the clip loads along with everything else in the Document class (content, UI... etc). I want the intro clip to run, stop and then continue will the rest of the code in Document.
I've tried using the stop method on the clip but it seems to do nothing, just puts the MovieClip into a playback loop.

I'm nesting a SWF inside my movie by so
Code:
var loading:Loader = new Loader();
loading.load(new URLRequest("loading.swf"));
placeholder.addChild(loading);
All is fine and dandy. But I would like playback of the nested swf to be stopped initially. This can be done by putting a 'stop()' call on the swf itself but I would really like to know if it's possible to do this from the parent movie?

I'm making a map in flash and when you rollover a name of a company(button) the building of that company light up.That works fine. The map is a MovieClip. In that movieclip I made keyframes(pages).In the first keyframe I entered stop();
That worked fine but not for long. I wanted to put some buttons with URL links in the diffirent Keyframes(pages).When I typed the code for that it worked fine on the first keyframe. When I came to the second keyframe and made another button with link.When I tested it the MovieClip keeps playing over and over again and does not listen to stop(); anymore.

This is probably an easy fix, but I obviously can't get it. Below is the actionscript to loop my movie clip, but once it's activated, I can't get it to stop. I thought it would stop at 3. Flash 8 (CS2).
on (rollOver){
for (i=0; i<=3; ++i){
audio_mov.duplicateMovieClip("audio_mov" +ii);
}}

I am building an application for a real life game. When the players of the game have finished they get to see a movie. That movie is embedded in a movieclip and the last frame has to be shown when the movie has played.
This is the code I have for now.
Code:
check_mc.visible = false;
check_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, CheckCode);
function CheckCode(event:MouseEvent){
[Code]...
I would like to know: What do I have to do to stop the movieclip at the last frame, so the last frame is on the screen?

I have this EMERGENCY right now! I need to get this specific movie clip (controlled by a button) to stop at certain frames based on the day.
So what I'd like is for when someone presses the button, it instructs a movie clip to play - all this is based on what day of the month it is..in this example, it's today. The date part of this script works fine.[code]...
the script works fine...but I'd like the in between stuff. I have the movie clip stopped on frame 1 and I want it to play from frame 2 and stop at frame 23 if it's the 17th...in fact I'll have more if statements to go along with all this, but that's just cut and paste.[code]...
