ActionScript 3.0 :: MovieClips Won't Hold Instancename

Jun 22, 2010

This seems so simple and yet I can't figure out why my MovieClips won't hold their instance names.[code]And I do this for each button (I know I can do this with XML but nothing seems to work right now so I've broken it all down to see what's going wrong).[code]And the trace statement gives me "instance29" or some such. Can't seem to get the name to stick. I've tried creating getter and setter methods in my button class to access a label property and use that instead of the name but it comes out undefined when I trace. I'm having trouble finding anything on the forums though I'm sure it must be there. Could someone point me in the right direction. I don't need a full answer, just an explanation of why this is happening.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Lock Instancename For Working In Current Swf

Mar 3, 2005

Is there a way to lock instancename in a swf to prevent it conflict with other swf, when they are loaded in mainmovie.

Say I have this string: in both b.swf and c.swf. And they are loaded up at the same time in a.swf.

loadMovie(this.pathToPicsJan+this.pArrayJan[0], _root.photoJan);

Somehow the mainmovie get confused with the instancenames. Is there a way to get around with this so I don't have to rename each name?? It would b such a hassle to rename all instancenames if I got many duplicated/similar swfs.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Function Works Only Once?

Sep 19, 2009

I have a listener and a function for it on the main timeline, listening for TextEvents from links in a dynamic textbox nested somewhere in the movie. The problem is that everything works only once. I click on a link, it works, click again and it does nothing. I have to reload the objects for it to work again. What am I doing wrong? Do functions work only once when the main timeline is stopped?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Function Works Only On The Second Click

ActionScript 3.0 :: Function Works On Some Objects But Not Others?

Jun 10, 2011

And I don't know how to use the debugger in Actionscript. This is my code. It's in a class called GeoPiece and is being activated when a movieclip of instance GeoPiece is dragged over a movieclip of instance GeoPuzzle. lastObjOver is a place holder and is an instance of GeoPuzzle.

I want the mc from GeoPuzzle to highlight (goto frame "Over") when it is touched over and unhighlight (goto frame lock or out) when untouched. The script works perfectly - unless the GeoPuzzle piece was already locked. For some reason, it then sets itself to null and I can't figure out why.

ETA: The touchevent its responding to is a TOUCH_MOVE attached to the GeoPiece.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Function Works, But Not When Called By Interval?

ActionScript 2.0 :: For Loop Works In Trace But Not In Function

Mar 9, 2010

I have 20 players in a game and cutting and pasting lots of code except for a few numbers. I have future features that would require over 400 lines of mostly repeated code. So I learned how to use "for", and practiced with a trace command. Traced the results exactly as I thought. However when I apply it to the guts of my function, the movie breaks down. I suspect it's because the function is being called on an EnterFrame command and the for loop I wrote is being executed over and over.

This works when I hand code:
Actionscript Code:
function drill(){GUESS0 = ((guess0min * 60)*1000) + ((guess0seconds * 1000))
GUESS1 = ((guess1min * 60)*1000) + ((guess1seconds * 1000))
GUESS2 = ((guess2min * 60)*1000) + ((guess2seconds * 1000))
GUESS3 = ((guess3min * 60)*1000) + ((guess3seconds * 1000))
GUESS20 = ((guess20min * 60)*1000) + ((guess20seconds * 1000))
//and then 300 more lines of other code}

And then a button later calls this when pressing:
Actionscript Code:
my_MC.onEnterFrame = function(){_root.drill ();
//so _root.drill is continually being called, which is good, because it has all sorts of data that needs to be refreshed, but I think it's screwing with my "for" loop.}

And the following is NOT working.
Actionscript Code:
function drill(){for (i=0;i<20;i++){
"GUESS"+i+" = ((guess"+i+"min * 60)*1000) + ((guess"+i+"seconds * 1000));";}

But when I trace it in a separate test movie, it outputs exactly what I would hope it placed in the code:
Actionscript Code:
for (i=0;i<5;i++){trace("GUESS"+i+" = ((guess"+i+"min * 60)*1000) + ((guess"+i+"seconds * 1000));");}

So at the end of the day, I guess I can trace these results in a test movie and use it to generate what I need, and cut and paste it into the project... but I thought 'for' loops were for saving time AND space. Am I using this code right? Maybe my use of "", or +, or i is misguided?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Re-setInterval Each Time Function Works?

Mar 19, 2012

I have a function that draws a rectangle on the screen (see createInfoPanel())While drawing rectangle, I am adding 2 text fields on it.But as you may guess, it is adding those immediately. I want to delay adding these text fields, then I want to remove these panels after a while. The problem is, when I set an interval or timer, they won't work after I using once (I had to stop them by clearing/removing, it didn't set them again).Since my panel is being created each time image changes, I need them to work every time image changes.
 
So, I have 2 questions:1- How can I re-set interval each time my createInfoPanel() function works? It won't work anymore after setting and claring once. 2- You can see infoPanel.addChild(titleField); line in addInfoPanel() function. How can I work a smooth animation here? I mean, text appears slowly?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Load Function Works Locally But Not On Webserver?

Mar 17, 2009

I finally finished my game and now whenever my game communicates with my php file/mysql database it fails when the file is being run off the server, but somehow it works fine when played locally.

Here is some sample code:

(This works locally, hence the full url for the load function. But it does not work on the server which I thought was strange.)

Code:
startupvars = new LoadVars();
startupvars.load("http://alexville.com/alexvillenetwork/startup.php");
startupvars.onLoad = function(success){

ActionScript 2.0 :: Load() Function Works Locally But Not On Webserver?

Mar 31, 2009

I really want to finish this project that I'm working on, but this stupid problem keeps holding me back.

When I try to Load variables from my PHP file on my webserver from my local computer everything goes fine. But when the swf file is actually on the webserver the Load function fails to return any result with no error.

Here is my code:

Code:
Stage.scaleMode = "exactFit";
startupvars = new LoadVars();
startupvars.load("startup.php");

[Code]....

What happens after this code runs is that the text boxes dont get filled with ANY text, not even the Logged In As before the variable. So I guess the "startupvars.onLoad = function(success){" code is not being run.
