ActionScript 2.0 :: Load() Function To Stop Reading?
Nov 23, 2009
I'm using load() to load a local txt file. The content in my txt file is as follows:
a1=message
a2=text
The problem is that, instead of identifying that as 2 different variables, flash returns a1 as:
message
a2=text
and, of course, a2 isn't even read b/c it's a 'part' of a1. How do I tell the load function to stop reading a1 at the end of the line, and to read a2 as well? I tried a semicolon ; and it still didn't work. Instead it returned:
I am new to flash. I am working with RFID readers and tags within flash and I cant figure out how to stop a tag from reading more than once. I want it so when the tag is swiped, it wont read it a second time, but after 3 seconds, it can read it again.
I've got a function which is constantly running to see if a set of movie clips (ball0_mc, ball1_mc etc.) have been placed in a target zone. Once the ballPlaced[#] value is true for a partiuclar moive clip, the movie clip starts acting in different ways depending on which other balls have been placed in a target zone (i.e. their ballPlaced[#] value is also true).
The 'if' and 'else if' conditional statements are contained within the playVideo() function which is constantly running through the ENTER_FRAME event. [code]...
The trace doesn't showup at all....by the way, this is in the first frame of the timeline, and i am trying to load a wordlist and then use the words in my program separately. Is it because flash loads the text file slowly? I am using flash 8, AS2.
meaning that when it calls itself again, that it will stop searching the next items on the same level from where it was called...how do i not let it stop searching and complete the tree..
I am changing the flashvars variables v1=value&v2=value ect then after the flash movie runs I am changing the variables externally by javascript, so far so good.when flash first loads it reads the vars correctly.when I try to read them ( after the change ) it keeps reading the old values.[code]everything works except I cannot seem to read the changed FlashVars.
I need to save and load data to and from variables. I know how to read from text-files, but not how to write to them. The text-files should work as a "database" for the high-score in a game, I cant use php cause the computer running the game wont be online all the time.
ActionScript Code: myFunct(); function myFunct() {
[Code].....
Any way to get this to work without using much more code? This is for a function that checks to see if a user is still logged into a website. I need the check to happen every time the user causes certain functions to run, like create topic, submit new post, etc. I could put the code, which is only a two-liner if/else statement in every function, but it would be nice to just call a single function. But that function would have to be able to cause the function that's calling it to return to get it to cease.
I am trying to load a variable from data in a text file.I can read the text file fine but the variable data seemsonly to be available with in the function that reads it. I need to use the variable data outside of the function.This is the actionscript code i'm using.
var pathVars= new LoadVars(); pathVars.onLoad=function(ok) { if(ok)

var pathVars= new LoadVars(); pathVars.onLoad=function(ok) { if(ok) {
[code]....
This is where the path_var becomes undefined
trace("This is outside the function... "+path_var); pathVar1="This is outside the function... "+path_var;
I am doing an Actionscript 3.0 project which involves introspection. I am wondering if there is a way to get all the classes within a given package structure.
how do I stop the preloader to LOAD an item when I click in another item to load.. Is that possible? Here in my example the preloader runs perfect, but when I start another mouseevent CLICK the old loading still active (on BANDWIDTH PROFILER, but the Preloader Movie Clip is removed).. How Do I stop the event when another different loading starts?Not visual aspect but functional.
It should play 10 seconds and then go to the next scene.
PHP Code:
function timer(){ seconds=seconds-1; if (seconds < 0) {
[Code].....
Well that works, but when I click on the play-again-button in the next scene, it won't play for 10 seconds (but less). I think the timer goes on without stopping. How can I stop the timer function when I move to the next scene?

In my game I've got a scene where you get 3 seconds to click a button otherwise its Game Over, only problem is my code only works if I press the button straight away.
During some testing I was waiting 2 seconds then pressing the button, but when I go to the next part of the game, it will carry on to GameOver as if the Timer has not stopped.[code]...
