Nov 17, 2003
Three simple things that i wanna know...
if (Key.isDown(Key.UP)) {
What would i put instead of UP if i wanted say the letter 'a' to be the button?
and
What would i put if i wanted a button when pressed to refresh the game or page...
one more thing...im making a simple race car game and i wanna make it so when it passes the start line it adds 1 to the score...how can i do this...
ive got _root.score += 1; to show the score but how would i make it so when the car moves over a certain co-ordinate or something...the score would rise one...would i be able to put some MC as the start line and have it so when it passes over that MC it would add 1 to the score

create buttons for play and reset to frame1 that will allow all movie clips within movie clips to play.tests now show my current code causes problems. I can simplify the issue. I currently am finding that the following code works first time but then stops MC2, MC3, MC4 (in that order on separate layers) sitting within MC1 from playing when reset and play are selected. It just plays the last frame of MC1 which sees just MC4 play. The MC1 travels across the scene ok, guide path etc working.

I've got an inputfield.OnChange Event Handler.When someone types a letter, i want the letter to become 0, then 1, then 2, and so on until 9 and then i want the letter to be there.And when they click on another letter, same effect happens.so at the end if i typed, "testing", each letter scrolls 0-9 like a roll dial and settles on the letter typed.What i've managed to do is make it work, but if i type at normal speed and not slow, i end up getting something like: t32t43g

I have a combo box that I'm trying to enter a letter for to search values for that particular letter and I keep getting this error. Every other combo box works fine when a key is pressed so I'm not sure why this particular combo box registers an error. The complete error looks like this:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

I have been building a simple word game. It is smple but works fine. I am now trying to enhance some of the features.I would like to see if I can display one letter of each word so the Player has a hint. Think of this as a beginners level.The words are random from a text list. Either I can make the letters invisible and the game starts without a hint or I am able to select a letter using charAt() or creating a new variable substring()from the word which is the displayed repeatedly on the stage(not what I want) I have not been able to find a way to display one letter and display it in the correct order within the word and keep the remaining letters invisible.

In many RPG games, messages appear in textboxes letter by letter (usually accompanied by a repetitive beeping). I've been trying to simulate this in Flash for a game I've been working on in AS2. When it comes to programming, I'm fairly new and so far, the best I've got is this:
var num:Number = 0;
var s:String = "This message will appear.";
function onEnterFrame():Void {

I'm doing an assignment for university where I have to draw a chart having nodes (circles), each node having a number on it (text field)... ie the first node drawn would have "1" in it, the second "2" and so on... then these nodes will be connected to each other using drawn lines .... I'm using object oriented programming (my first try at OOP with Flash) and have an array which stores the details of nodes....
my problem is that when i put the first node the number in it is "1" ok, but as soon as i put the second node the numbers in both nodes turn to "2" and then "3" when the third node is drawn... which results in a whole mess!!! i don't know what can i do with the variables so as not to have the text fields updated everytime but only create the new node.
I think that the problem might be with the attachMovie part, but i have no idea.
I hope that this is clear enough! if it's not just ask me and i'll explain better. anyway the source file is attached (just click to add a node). I really hope that you can help me, or at least help me find a way how to figure it out.

I have tried this about 24 different ways now.Within main movie there lies a movie clip called soundcontrols_mc. Within this i am creating a emptyMovieClip via actionscript seen below:[code]Now all this code lies within soundcontrols_mc and I have tried rewritting it many ways for navigational control and also placing it within the pt_mc but when I do that all songs restart everytime animation happens.Things I have tried (just started learning action script from AS, The definitive Guide).So I have altered _parent, _root swapping all types and degrees of them and cant get a response from my handlers.

On rollout I need the already ongoing movieclip to keep playing until hitting the wanted frame. Upon which the timeline will continue from another specific frame. And this, to prevent my animation from glitching between start, hold and finish while quickly hoovering the mouse over the whole thing.

I have a textfield problem. I created a textfield (for input) and wanted to make some calculations using entered numbers. But it recognizes the inputs as a string. For example;
listen=new Object();
listen.onKeyDown=function(){
if(Key.isDown(Key.ENTER)){[code]....
if I enter 12 in the textfield and press Enter, result is 123, not 15. How can i make it to recognize input as a number?

From time to time the letter keys in my flash player stop working. They work ONLY if I hold down CTRL at the same time. It's really annoying, because some flash content I like to use requires typing, and this weirdness doesn't change if I restart the browser or the computer altogether. It is some general setting too, because when this happens NONE of the flash windows will take any letters.

Letter spacing doesn't seen to work for dynamic text fields in Flash. I use CS4 on Mac, player version 10.0.2. Does it also depend on the font that's used?

I would like to know if there is a way to get flash only to look at the first letter not just the whole text that has been tipped in. The script i currently use:
on (release) {
if (text_box.text.indexOf("a")!= -1) {
_root.gotoAndStop(2);[code]....
My question: How to get the script only to look at the first letter (in this case, if its "a" or not) and then react, because as of now(obious when looking at the script hehe)it will go to frame 2 whenever theres an "a" in the whole word?

I have a textbox on the stage where its letter spacing is set to 4. When I change the textbox content with code the letter spacing goes back to 0.
So is there a way to lock the text spacing or do I have to create a textformat and keep resetting the text spacing?
