ActionScript 2.0 :: Variables Not Adding Together To Make New Number
Feb 24, 2011
Having some issues with some variables not adding together to make a new number. Instead they are appending to each other as if adding characters onto a string rather than a number. Here is my code.
ActionScript Code:
var dispenserPos:Object = {x1:"41", y1:"180", x2:"283", y2:"180", x3:"530", y3:"180", x4:"775", y4:"180"};
function randRange(min:Number, max:Number):Number {
var randomNum:Number = Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min + 1)) + min;
return randomNum;
[Code] .....
It should be tracing out 388 instead of the numbers appended onto one another.

If I want to add or substract number variables, how can I name them to indicate they are numbers and how can I do basic math with them? If I try adding common variables like
_root.answer = _root.var1+_root.var2;
and if var 1 is = 1
and var 2 is = 2
The answer is 12 not 3

So I'm loading a variable into my .swf from PHP (using loadVars) and adding two loaded variables together. However, when they are added they "add on" to eachother.
Example:
varOne = 1
varTwo = 3
varOne + VarTwo = 13 (????)
I was thinking the variable may think it's a string, but I don't know how to declare the variables sent in from PHP.

How can I make a bunch of variables from a for loop. for example for (var i=0; i<total; i++) {var bunch(i);}. that i make a bunch of variables named bunch1, bunch2, bunch3. I keep getting errors. I program and use so many different languages that I dont know if that can be done with AS3. my only other alternative i can think of is to create some sort of event dispatcher object array. but I dont know how to get them all to send events to one listener with there index number.

I have a variable called "myNumber"
myNumber = 1382;
As you can see it equals a number, (This number is subject to change throughout the project.How can I add all of the digits in this number up into a new variable.The number is "1382" so the new number would be all the digits added together... 1+3+8+2, "14"

I imagine this to be a simple question, but I don't seem to be able to figure it out being knee deep in code !!I have this variable :-var blackCredit = creditBlack.text;When I try to add or subtract 1 from the amount in the text box, like this :-blackCredit += 1;and then update the text box with the new value :-creditBlack.text = blackCredit;It's adding the 1 to the end. i.e. 16 becomes 161, instead of 17..

My name is Bryan i am 17 years old and i'm from the Netherlands. As i am trying to become a web design and developer i decided flash was a MUST to know, so i started trying flash and messing about. Now i'm trying to get into Action script 3.0 deeper. Currently i am trying to fix an externaly (XML) loaded image gallery for my self, except i'm a little stuck right now.Up to now all my code has worked. I've got 3 UILoaders set up for 2 jobs: Loading thumbnails (2 of them) and the other is for loading a 'full' version. I got that working. Except if i get huge images like a wallpaper etc. it screws up the size, so i set scaleContent to true.
- Set all the images dynamicly, with that i mean it loops trough all the thumbnails and gets the first 2, it dumps them into the UILoader wich is already the part i am failing at XD
- Check for the width and the height of the image (wich i either will include in the XML document or can i use something like: XMLData.image[ *number here* ].img_thumb.width (as a example)?
- Check if these are less than the UILoader's size and if they are less dissable scale content, if they are more enable it
So as i said im already failing at trying to dump the images in the thumbnails.I've got the following setup:
Root document has a MC: mc_content.
Inside mc_content we have: loader_image (full size of the image loader)
loader_thumb1 and loader_thumb2.
So what i want:
- Load the XML (works)
- Set some limits using variables (works)
- Start a for loop (works)
- get the thumbnail for the current image number (wich is a variable set and maintained in the for loop) (works)
- load the image into the loader_thumb *insert current image number here* (fails)
here is my current XML function:
ActionScript Code:
// Function that is called upon loaded complete
function xmlLoaded(event:Event):void{
// get the XML Data from the file

I have created a tween with actionscript that moves a movie clip of a cityscape along the x axis whenever the mouse is clicked.
This is my code
var skylineTween:Tween=new Tween(skyline_mc,"x", Regular.easeInOut, skyline_mc.x,Math.floor(Math.random() * (-1022 - -16) ) + -3,2,true);
Right now it generates a random number from between -1022 and -16 (positions along the x axis).
However, sometimes the skyline movie clip only moves a few pixels and looks boring.
I added 200 pixels to the movement (Math.random() * (-1022 - -16) +200 ) and it looks better. However, sometimes this slides the movie clip past -1022 or -16 and off the stage.
How can I set the value to +200 without passing -1022 or -16?

just learning as3 for flex. i am trying to do this:
var someNumber:String = "10150125903517628"; //this is the actual number i noticed the issue with
var result:String = String(Number(someNumber) + 1);
I've tried different ways of putting the expression together and no matter what i seem to do the result is always equal to 10150125903517628 rather than 10150125903517629.

I have imported some info from an xml file into my movie. The info from this file is then displayed in dynamic text boxes. Three of these text boxes show a price which displays fine. However i need the contents of these text boxes to be added together in another dynamic text box called total. I need this total to update as the price fields change. I just cant figure it out.
Here is my code which is placed at frame 1 of my movie:
The last line of code is along the lines of how i think it should work
stop();
bar._visible = false;
bar2._visible = false;
bar3._visible = false;

The buttons are used to jump to a specific (root-)frame (based on a variable); they're all nested inside a moviclip, each on its own layer, and for every frame there's one button more showing (imagine a staircase). Now, is there a way for a script that works for all buttons without adding the specific frame number every time? I started working with
ActionScript Code: on (release) {_root.gotoAndStop(_root.VAR+3);} where VAR also defines, how many buttons are shown (eg. frame number of the button-MC). +3 is just for the frame number on root. That way, of course, all buttons eventually lead to the same frame, or more precise: only the last button shown will lead to the correct frame.

I'm a student web designer from Toronto, ON working on a flash interface for an art show.In our flash file (AS 2.0), I need a piece of code to constantly check a set of variables. If the variable reaches 2, I want it to unload the current movie, therefore I also have a set of buttons which each increase the current variable by +1 every time they are clicked. Therefore once 2 buttons were clicked, the movie would be unloaded.[code]

(Using AS3) I'm doing a simple grid layout of boxes (movieClips), i'm then trying to save their current position to each of the movieClips. So in AS2 i'd do something like ...
obj.origX = obj._x;
obj.origY = obj._y;
but it's saying; 1119: Access of possibly undefined property targetX through a reference with static type flash.displayisplayObject. How can i add custom variables to movieClips?

Is there an easy way to add a variable into A HREF tag within as3?Example:var myVariable = "hello";<a href = 'event:myVariable' </a>Of course, that doesn't work, but how would I go about making it work? This is for a dynamic project, so I need to call upon variables within the A HREF in order for this to work.

I'm trying to import some variables set up in a .txt file. However the variables that I would like to behave like numbers are not doing so.
I have a variable in the text file called "&middleimg=1" when I pull this in and say do the following:
Code:
var numvar:Number=0;
numvar = _root.myvars.middleimg+1;
I get "11" rather then "2" as the result. I tried setting up my text file as such: "&middleimg:Number=1" but get an "undefined" result. Is there anyway to get imported variables to behave like a number instead of a string?

I'm trying to load a known number of variables. So I set up this code in flash[code]...
It recive "antal"which is how many variables there are. The variables name are named produkt_0 produkt_1 produkt_2 produkt_3 and so on..
So it collect the varibales correct i've checked this by set loader.data.produkt_load to loader.data.produkt_0. But since I don't know how many I just can't set loader.data.produkt_load to loader.data.produkt_0. Insted I want produkt_load be a variable like it is in my code, but it seems that loader.data.produkt_load became undefined, why this? Can't you set a variable that change in loader.data.hereismychangingvariable?

it's just some little white 'snowflakes' that fall from the upper end of the screen)
ActionScript Code:
var timer:Timer = new Timer(30);
timer.start();
timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, onTimer);
[Code]....
Now, this of course gives a run time error (access of undefined property snowSpeedX) due to the fact that snowSpeedX is declared in the function onTimer. The reason it is declared their is because i want it to change everytime and so each snowflake that falls, moves in the x axis with a different speed. If i declared the snowSpeedX variable outside of the onTimer function, i wouldnt get a different value for every snowflake, i would just get one.
So, how do i get the snow flakes to have a varying range of speeds?
