I have name my dynamic texts as inp1.text, inp2.text, inp3.text etc...Now my question is.. when applying actionscripts (2.0 is the one I use), how to increment their values?How I can make inp1.text as inp2.text?
on(release){
if (Number(inp1.text)>0){n1=Number(inp1.tex� else{n1=0;}
if (Number(inp2.text)>0){n2=Number(inp2.tex� else{n2=0;}

As the title says, need best way to move objects in game. Always used x and y increments. Read about tweenlite and use it, very easy. So which do I use taking into account that these games can be ported to mobiles ie: which is more optimized. It's a platform type game. I will have a. A little girl that walks and climbs
b. Little platforms that slide from side to side - you have to jump on them
c. The little girl will jump
d. Little baddies will fly around the screen.
ALSO, as the girl jumps I would like it to look natural Gravity as she falls down The correct increment on x and y as she jumps. Shouldn't their be an actionscript 3 games forum
I am using dynamic text to increment my value "dtext".There are 3 buttons on the stage. When you click on one, it disappear and the counter becomes 1, ect.
The counter works, but there is something wrong with my if statement, because it never goes to frame 131.

I did not have any problems on CS4 but I encountered this error below when I used CS5. Fonts should be embedded for any text that may be edited at runtime, other than text with the "Use Device Fonts" setting. Use the Text > Font Embedding command to embed fonts. Now that the line of error is cleared. However, I am still having problems with my dynamic text fields which worked with correct values in CS4 but gave the incorrect values in CS5.

I wanted to assign a value to a text box- dynamic :so I create a dynamic text box with instance name : value_text

I have a movie that contains a series of radio button groups, which each have their own accompanying dyn text box. When a certain radio button is selected, a pre-determined value is loaded into each respective groups' text box, via "onRelease".
Now, I can get these values to appear fine in each text box, but I then have a fourth text box (amount_total), into which I want to have the sum of all the previous text box's values.
I have a submit button with the following actions on the first frame of the timeline:
onSubmit = function (){
_root.amount_total = Number(_root.total_surf) + Number(_root.total_music) + Number(_root.total_video);
}
Now, when I hit the submit button NaN is returned.
I'm not a programmer but have been using Flash for awhile. This is my first heavy dive into variables.I'm putting together a Quiz game where I pull the information from a txt file. I can get everything to display and work fine except for the adding of a total score.I have a series of values in a text file and load it into my movie. Depending upon what button I push, I want to take the value and add it to the total score. The next button I push I want it to add that value to the new total score.

View 1 RepliesI have 3 dynamic text boxes on the main movies stage that are getting their values from an externally loaded swf. If statements within the external movie loads the values from an xml file depending on which action is selected by the user. Now I have a fourth text box that needs to gather all the values that are loaded in the other 3 and add them together...placing zero if nothing is loaded. I have done various code tests...I get either NAN or _level0.total ...total is the instance name of one of the boxes, I am trying to access.
View 2 RepliesI can't get code in my button to change the values displayed in my dynamic text boxes. I have a column of twelve dynamic text boxes which display numbers stored in an array. The array contains more than twelve numbers. I want to use buttons to refresh the information in the boxes (effectively creating a scrolling effect) so that the remaining contents of the array can be revealed as required. In the code below Stats1 etc. refer to the dynamic text. The array is called Stats4display. This shows the information fine.[code]I had hoped that by incrementing the value of x I could update all the dynamic text boxes with the next value along in the array.
View 9 RepliesIt's been a about seven years since I have done any work with Flash but now my employer is asking me to create a custom online magazine tool (we're publishers). I've been immersed in PHP and AJAX and building Mac apps with XCode so I've got a bit of a relearning curve to go through.
Anyway, I'm pulling in some XML into a Flash file and want to display some of the various node values in a dynamic text box. That was easy enough, AS3 makes it a charm compared to the dark old days. The problem I am running into is displaying the values - its kind of a runsheet for a magazine - num of pages, ads, features, etc. etc. and I want to display that in one text box in a list type format. So I have something like this:

Can someone explain why the text of a dynamic text object disappears at runtime when rotated?It happened when I rotated a MovieClip object via actionscript that contained a dynamic text object. So, to test whether this happens all the time, I created a movie clip again with a dynamic text object in it, populated the dynamic text object with a single letter, and rotated it by hand and ran the movie - the letter disappeared.
LOL in a happy, rare accident, I discovered the answer myself. Page 432 of the Flash 8 Actionscript Bible says, "Aside from just allowing text to look the way you want it to look, embedded fonts actually enable your Textfield objects to do some things they wouldn't otherwise do. For example ... a TextField object that uses device fonts (nonembedded fonts) cannot be rotated nor can you change the alpha. But once you embed the font, you can do both of these things."
How: (for dynamic or input text objects) clicking the Embed button in the Property inspector.Note, this will increase the size of your swf. Just embedding the lowercase and uppercase letters from a-z of one font increased the swf filesize from 3-9KB.
How can I create a for loop so I can use different values of the same node? So I want to count the "<Text>" nodes of the XML and use their different values on different dynamic textfields. Note that I have mutliple Movieclips on the stage with the same amount of textfields and I would like to include them in the loop, so I named them mc1 mc2 etc.

View 2 RepliesI can't make Flash do a gosh darn thing 'flashy', no matter how many tutorials I read, and how many demo's I see, it never seems to do what would make sense. This worked fine until I tried to plop the dynamic text box into its own movie object in the library... I've opened flash, drawn a simple dynamic text box. Set the dynamic text box's data variable to szTextBoxData (why don't text boxes just have a value property? anyways..).
Then selecting it, I convert it to a symbol (as a movie) call it DynamicTextMovie, and stuff it away into the library. Now I delete it from the layer, as I want to add it dynamically at run time. Next, on frame one of the main movie, I insert this code. (sorry for the bad formatting, limit of the forum here..)

well in my game,while you are playing level you have 3 objects(movieclips) on which you can click to pass on the next frame(when comes 3 new objects etc. untill level is complete); 2 of that 3 objects are wrong, and only 1 is good for passing on next frame. (all of all, correct click, wrong clicks)when i come on that level it keeps me showing error in output:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

Code: Select allfunction goodplus (event:Event):void {
goodcount ++;
goodText.text = (goodcount.toString());//<----debugger is showing error here

i gave instance name on my dynamic text as goodText, and it is on every frame.

View 0 Repliesive got some dynamic _x _y values coming from an xml file, and i can trace these out fine. xml_x = 300 xml_y = 240 or whatever. However when I try to send a mc to those values, using either load either or enterFrame the clip doesnt do anything at all. Is this because flash is treating the 300 from <xpos>300</xpos> in my xml file as a string rather than an integer?

I am making a videoplayer (and yes I have a reason to do it myself), though I'm stuck with getting the values out of the embed object.
This is my html code:
Code:
<div class="videoplayer">
<embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="vidPlayer.swf" id="vidplayer" name="vidplayer" bgcolor="#000" width="100%" height="100%" quality="high" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptacces="always" flashvars="video=hancock.flv" />
</div>
And some css:
Code:
.videoplayer{width:400px;height:328px;}
What I want is to read the width and height of this embed object in AS3, so the width should be 400 and height 300 as a var in as3.
I know how to do it with the flashvars. however I can't seem to get the width of the loader as following:
Code:
LoaderInfo(this.root.loaderInfo).width;
