I have a ball moving around the screen, position updated on ENTER_FRAME. My problem is that there is a considerable amount of flicker going on. I have thought about using something like TweenLite to move the ball but as the position is being updated frame-to-frame I don't think that will work.[code]...
View 2 RepliesI am trying the get the center movie to stop remaining centered with the scaling movie when It gets less than 200 pixels of the left hand margin. x.200 and stop being centered on the y axis also at 100 pixels y.100 Here is the current code I was trying to write that is positioned on the object: Just avoid the comments, just left them there for reference to what's in my movie. Also need an if statement made for the y axis. (explained earlier)
onClipEvent(load){

Currently I'm trying to make a basic game (using AS 2) but I'm having trouble getting the basic physics to behave. I have a ball which is supposed to fall until it touches the ground. It can also be dragged around the screen by the cursor.I want the ball to fall only if it isn't being held, but for some reason the condition isn't working properly. No matter how I structure the condition, the ball still falls even when it's being held (in fact I can move it from side to side, it is still being held even though it's falling downward).I've tried putting this on the ball to make it fall conditionally:
Code:
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
if(hitTest(_root.ground1) == false){

i need a movement script that makes an object move to where i want it to then stop. i cant seem to find a script for this anywhere.
View 4 Replieshow do i stop the movement of an object moving from left to right. I want to be able to place it anywhere id like.
View 2 RepliesAs the title says: Stop object from moving further when collision occurs.
Right now I'm trying to make a sliding puzzle. So far I have a block which I can click and drag around, and a few walls which are the boundaries. What I'm trying to do is make an area where the block can slide within the boundaries. So when you try to drag the block into an direction it will stop, whether you got mouse_down or mouse_up. My script so far
Code:
stop();
//Sliding Blocks
MCBlock1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, pickUp);
[Code]....
Also I need to use a lot of boundaries, so if there's a way to apply this script easily to several objects
im currently making an "AS3 beat em up" ala streets of rage or double dragon.Currently i have my character moving and a few animations done and i am trying to figure out how to make attacks work.I have some "basic" animation for his attack, but im not sure how to get it to work correctley.What happens is, if you press control (the attack button) whilst the character is walking he just keeps moving and is stopped on the attack frame.I want the character to stop moving if the attack is pressed and once it is released start moving again.
hero.gotoAndStop('still');
var left:Boolean = false;
var right:Boolean = false;[code].......
I have a MC that follows the mouse. I want to do so the MC will smoothly/softly stop when i stop moving the mouse. Is it hard to code, And it would be very nice if someone could do some code for it

View 1 RepliesI am trying to do a apply a tween for the width property on a MovieClip Object but every time it changes the width and the position too, and I don't want that. I want to change the width going to one side without changing the x and y of the object.
I tried both of thes and they gave the same result.
var c:Tween = new Tween(left, "scaleX", Strong.easeOut, 1, 1.5,20,true);
var c:Tween = new Tween(left, "width", Strong.easeOut, 20, 200,20,true);
I think it is applying the transformation according to a center of the movie clip. but I don't know how it can be changed.
Im working on a small project and it involves a guy which you move with the arrow keys. The arrow keys add to his x, y velocities and his position is updated accordingly. How can i get this man to grab onto an object and spin around it (like when you grab pole and letting your momentum swing you around) . I can make him grab the object but I dont know how to modify his x,y speeds to simulate the arc.

Im going to attatch the fla on here...I am also going to give you the script viewable here...im completely a beginner so i made my self notes
also this is not all my coding im just learning off of it to create my own project... What coding would i use to tell the mc to stop scrolling once it reaches a certain x coordinate? for example x=0 (left side of stage) or x= -484 which is when right side of picture is at right side of stage... and can i setup math for it to automatically determine the correct x coordinate (based off mc width) to stop at?? if there is easier scripting to do the same....fill me in
oh and x is off of the stage typically...this is panoramic pics im scrolling

View 3 RepliesI am definitely not competent with code in any significant way, and although I am confident that this code is even Action Script 2, I am not certain.A client has requested that I make a simple rolling filmstrip that loops with pictures. For this I searched the Internet for hours looking for a tutorial or a downloadable Flash file that has something close to what I want. Surprisingly, amid the dozens of purchasable applications and such I stumbled across, it seemed that none had exactly what I was wanting, which seems simple.
Anyway, I was able finally to find something useful.It allowed me to do what I wanted fairly simply.However, there are two things that I cannot figure out.The original "template" file was designed so that the filmstrip moves automatically, but when the cursor is hovered over the strip, the speed of the movement increases either way relative to how close to either horizontal edge the cursor is.
I went in and edited the code to turn that off. Now, the strip stops moving whenever the cursor is on the left side of the strip, and starts when it is on the right side. Also, the strip does not start automatically on most browsers I have viewed it on.The Action Script is posted below:
stop();
//Setup////////////////////////////////////////
//totalclips on stage - make sure in the properties panel they are named imgbox1,imgbox2,imgbox3,etc...
var totalClips = 6;
//to stop the clips from moving change to true;
var holdPosition = false;
//applies a max speed for the movie clips (false if no max speed)
var maxSpeed = .1;[code]............
I new to Flash and Action Script 3.0. I've just designed my first Flash website (for a band), and one of the pages has an MP3 player on the audio page. It plays fine, as long as you're on that page. But the problem is, when you go to a different page in the website, it keeps playing, and then when you return to the audio page, a new instance of the song that's playing starts playing on top of the song that's already playing. It's a jumble of sound that can't be stopped unless you close out of the website.[code]...
View 35 RepliesI have made a frame which contains four videos that play when the user clicks on the button relating to that video. However, when I click on another frame, the video's sound continues to play. But when I click back to the video page the FLV Componant Player has reset itself and is not playing anything, but I still hear the sound of the video that I played earlier. Any ideas as to either stop or pause the video that is playing when clicking away from that frame?

View 7 RepliesI can hash a flash template to make it work, changing URL's, pictures etc, so have not had a grounding in the coding side of things.
My problem is that I have a new website that I have published in CS5 from a template by flashmo. I have substituted one of the pages to play videos ( I originally wanted to have 1 video with 4 thumbnails that would play when clicked but that is above me). On that page I have imported 4 flash video files, one set to autoplay, the others using the skin to start when necessary.
The issue is that when I navigate away from the page "Examples", the sound keeps on playing and if I navigate back to "Examples" another instance of the video starts with both soundtracks playing.
I have researched and found other people with the same issue, but the solutions always seem to involve entering a stop(); function on the buttons that navigate away from the Examples page. This is where it all falls apart for me.
below is the code from the first frame of the timeline. Am I looking in the wrong place to stop the video playing. There are other lines of script later in the movie, but I am ssuming this is where it all runs from ?!
fm_button.visible = false;
var menu_label:Array = new Array("Home", "Examples", "Packages",
"Links", "About", "Contact");
var total:Number = menu_label.length;
