I tried the digital clock tutorial on Kirupa, but it doesn't display the correct time, even the example on the tutorial page is wrong. For example if my cpu clock says 3:00 PM, Saturday, November 13, 2004 the tutorial clock says 15:00 AM, Saturday, December 13, 2004. Could someone show me how to fix this,

View 1 RepliesI have to make this analog clock for a university assignment and despite some really good efforts last night and tonight I just can't work out how to get it fully working. There is both a digital and analog clock; the digital clock works fine, but the analog clock just starts from a random time whenever I play the test movie. I am supposed to use the date object, not the timer object. And I am also supposed to add a sound every minute - I have added the sound to the minutes layer and selected but I don't know where to go from there. I seem to be able to find lots of example code for the timer object but not the date.
this.addEventListener("enterFrame",clockHandler); false, 0, true;

for a game I'm working on, I want to make a 'digital display', like a digital clock for example. Every character exists of 7 lines which are either on or off. This picture will demonstrate what I mean.
Currently, I've got a DigitalDisplay class that extends Sprite, which holds a couple of instances of the Digit class that extends Sprite, which in turn holds 7 instances of the DigitLine class, which extends Shape, in which I draw one such line with the drawing API. This would mean that one DigitalDisplay holds 8 Sprite, which all hold 7 Shapes, so that's 8 Sprites and 56 Shapes. This is a bit overkill I think.
Thing is, I want control over every 'DigitLine'. During transition, when the text on the display changes, I want every lines to go on and off in a random pattern, slowly forming the new text. Would this be possible with another less extensive solution? The only thing I could think of was this:
Instead of every Digit object I'd have an Array, which instead of filled with DigitLine objects is filled with Arrays. However, then I'd only have 1 graphics object, which mean I'd need to clear() it every time something changes.
I'm having a lot of trouble getting my AS3 code to work. I have made a digital clock that grabs the system's time and I want to be able to control the speed of the time by using a slider and a button to reset the time back to the system's clock. Any idea how I go about doing this? I figure I need to grab the system's time and then stop it and create my own clock by increasing the seconds by 1.

View 2 RepliesI have a digital clock out on my personal server, and when I navigate to it, it works perfectly. However, if left open for a little while, it starts to slow down the browser and other various applications that may be open.
Here's ActionScript Code:
var mydate = new Date();
var seconds = mydate.getSeconds();
var minutes = mydate.getMinutes();
var hours = mydate.getHours();
var day = mydate.getDay();

I would like to create a digital time which only show min and sec. This time is use in a game in order to test the users speed and accuracy. When the user finished the game, the time will stop and then have to check the time user has spent to finish the game. So, if the user manage to finish the game before 10 min, will get 100 points. If is between 10 and 15 min, will get 90 points and so on.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to make a clock that goes to a frame with a set amount of bars across the screen at 8 am. Then every 15 minutes it goes to another frame where one bar is gone and a certain action happens. It's just a joke clock to countdown the workday. But after it switches over the clock stops telling time. I have a dynamic text named Clock_text I tried putting this actionscript in the first frame:
ActionScript Code:
time=new Date(); // time object
var seconds = time.getSeconds()[code]....
and so on for the corresponding frames going to the 5 o clock celebration page. After it switches over to frame 3 the clock stops working.
I know how to read the time from a user's pc's clock, however, I'm wondering if you can break the individual digits down so they get inputted into individual text boxes, (i.e., 2 text boxes for the hours, 2 text boxes for the minutes, and 2 for the seconds... I need to convert the time somehow to strings?
View 1 Repliesi have been creating many flash clocks, but with the normal code, i mean, the code to show the time on every computer of each visitor.
What i must know is how to make a normal flash clock show the time of a specific world time zone, i know that they work from -5 , -4 ... 0 ... +1 , +2 ... .
So i have this flash clock, and it has this action script code:
Code:
myTime = new Date(year, month, date, hour, min, sec, ms);
minutes = myTime.getMinutes();
hours = myTime.getHours();
[Code]....
what code must i enter or substitute in the code above to show the time of a specific world time zone?

View 1 RepliesI'm seeing lots of cool clocks made in flash, but they load the time based on your machine's date and time. I want to construct a clock which takes the time from an official time server so it will always be up to date.
View 2 RepliesI want to calculate the number of ms elapsed between 2 time points for measuring reaction time. The system clock change (e.g. from auto sync) messed up the calculation.The function flash.utils.getTimer is supposed to return the number of milliseconds that have elapsed since the Flash runtime virtual machine for ActionScript 3.0 (AVM2) started. This number of milliseconds is not affected by system clock change on Windows, but this is not true on Mac. The Date class is affected by system clock change on Windows or Mac.Is there any other timing function that returns time which is not affected by system clock change on Mac?

I'm trying to get a flash clock (with the clock hands ticking over) to work with server side time, not client side time
I understand I need "loadvars" within the actionscript for it to get time from the server but I really don't know where to start with the scripting.
I also understand I need a php script to interact with the flash file. Would the gettime.php script suffice?
I'm trying to create a clock which shows the time returned by the server. get this code working with the server time on..(E.g.: time.php returns 1295532770)

I was thinking the other week - wouldn't it be great to have a flash clock that not only tells a classy analogue time but also, like a church clock, gives out bell noises when the hour is reached, an also chimes the number of hours the time corresponds too. So at 1pm/am it will chime once, and at midnight you get 12 chimes and so on, I'm sure you get my meaning. I'm not great when it comes to working with sound, infact I've never added much more than a custom click noise on a button. How to go about this? I've attached a nice church bell noise for y'all just incase.

View 0 RepliesI would like to make a binary countdown clock now. I followed senocular's tutorial on making a countdown timer, but it didn't work. How to make a countdown timer, and if possible make it use individual units of time, not just milliseconds, for the calculations. The problem with his tutorial that keeps me from changing the code to fit my needs is that it converts the numbers into a string and changes the numbers accordingly. I need to change the alpha of an mc depending on if the number goes into the binary form of the time left until the event.
When I made my clock, I knew that the time could never go under 1:00:00, and never over 23:59:59. All I did was made each "light" check what the value was, and if it needed to be "on" or "off", and then changed it accordingly. The code in each "light" is about 115 lines. Imagine making a check for each value if the event date is a year away! I can't attach a *.fla for my clock, because it is too big, but it's located here.
