How can I check how many movieClips exist in a container and how much space are they taken?
In other words, how can I make this calculation if I have a rectangular movieClip (containerMc) that is 5x1px and five square movieClips (sq1Mc,sq2Mc, sq3Mc, sq4Mc and sq5Mc) that are 1x1px and which can dynamically be placed inside containerMc and I want to know how many and which of these five movieClips already exist in containerMc so I can determine where the next square movieClip needs to be placed?
Can someone be so kind and show me how to do this or direct me where I can find the answer?

View 3 RepliesI have a script that creates arrays based on certain events. These are all stored in one main array like so: mainArray = [[3,6,5,1],[4,5,6],[5,3,5],[4,5,6]]; As you can see, sometimes I end up with duplicate arrays within the mainArray. How can I check if any duplicate arrays exist and remove them from mainArray?

View 2 RepliesI searched this a number of times, but I haven't found the answer was.I am new to scripting, so I am still finding what works and doesn't. So far I have added a number of variables in the engine I am creating. I want the player to click the button. Once press it will affect many of variables. The thing is I want to make the button unpressable if one variable is <= a number, lets say 100, and another term is true: number(_root.var2)/number(_root.var1) > 2).Here is what I have so far:
on (release) {
_root.var2 = number(_root.var2) + 1;
_root.var3 = number(_root.var3) - 1;

View 5 RepliesIm creating an online survery and recording all the answers as a variable in _root.vars.variablename where each question creates a new variable in the vars clip.
When the user answers a question the variable is created and given a value e.g.
_root.vars.variablename1 = 1
_root.vars.variablename2 = 1
_root.vars.variablename2 = 0
But I need a piece of code to check if the variable has actually been created. The reason for this is I have a next button the user has to click once they have answered, and I dont want them to advance if they havent answered. So I need to add something like if (_root.vars.variablename1 exists ) {gotoAndPlay("answered");} else{ gotoAndPlay("noAnswer");}

Is there a way to write an "ANY" conditional statement? For example, I want to write an IF statement that if the user presses ANY of 10 specified keys, I want to execute the same bit of code.However, the only ways I know to accomplish this is by
1) writing a switch statement, which seems unwieldy because I'll have 10 separate cases which all duplicate the same [code]...
Is there a better/faster/more efficient way to check if a variable is equal to ANY of a set of values?
