Is there any way to make a function run only one time? to be specific:
ActionScript Code:
_root.onEnterFrame = function(){
playerHp();
}
[Code]...
but i have a lot of these kind of functions and that would be a lot of vars... is there another way?
I have code set up that calls a function whenever my player is over its last destination in the a* pathfinding array...
public function rakeSoil(e:Event):void {
var:Cell = Grid.getCellAt(player.x/50, player.y/50);
if (cell.isWalkable == false) {
[Code]....
I have a problem when few movieclips calls the same function, every movie clip when it is onMouseOver give to the function their properties witch function process.
If i OnMouseOver a few movieclips at the time the function cant calculate every movieclip alone... Maybe i have to put some array.. ??? i dont know..
On OnMouseOver the movieclips move i random direction and when i passes 15 seconds they return to their original place..
can someone give me an idea how I would use a function to enlarge and change the alpha of a button but make it span over a period of time like it was an animation.a long time ago on gear78.com I think he used functions to make his buttons do what they did and it was badass. if I find another site I will post a link. if you don't know what the heck I am talking about tell me and I will try and explain it more.
View 2 RepliesI was just wondering whether it was possible to perform a function after a period of time.like +2 to hp every 6 seconds.
View 2 RepliesMy goal is to change the time for setInterval each time the function is called. Planning to replace myInterval = 5000; with a randomized number. My problem is getting setInterval to recognize the myInterval variable from the function.

View 7 Repliesmake a clock base on given time(server time) as title,
View 2 RepliesI have an AS3 program that calls a function multiple times. The function must return multiple variables, so I created a class for the function to declare an object containing all of these variables. For example, here's my class:
package
{
public class PER
{
[Code].....
Let's say the calling program calls the function, which returns the variables into data_set1 (where data_set1 depends on input variables arg1, arg2, arg3) using:
var data_set1:PER = function_name(arg1, arg2, arg3);
The calling program does some stuff, then calls the function again, but returns the variables into a new variable name, data_set2:
var data_set2:PER = function_name(arg4, arg5, arg6);
My intention is that data_set1 and data_set2 are different (e.g. not linked together).
My question is, given that arrays are passed by reference, will data_set1 be modified to agree with data_set2 upon the 2nd function call? Why or why not?

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.
time-out feature on my timeline? I have certain spots in my timeline where i want a time-out to occur after 5 seconds of the user not clicking anywhere or doing anything.

I am new to AS and need to know the relation between position and time in AS.
If we have this code:
onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
speed = 1;
this._x += speed;
}
nd a framrate 16 fps, how can we calculate the time it takes to move the MC from position A to position B? I mean how can vi control the speed here as a function of time (say as a function av fps)?
this is my first attempt at defining a function all by myself and surprise it don't work! I'm sure you can see from below what I'm trying to create.

I have a function that calls another function once every 30 seconds. Each time it calls the function it updates the variables each time. My problem is that it only wants to call the function one time. All the variables are correct but it wont call it again.

newLevel = function(e_freq, s_freq, current_level){
clearInterval(_root.spawnInt);

I have a bunch of mc's, called like mc1, mc2, mc3 and so on.
What I'd like to do is to tween those in order, with the tween class. So when mc1 is finished, I want mc2 to start and so on.
This is of course possible when writing something like
Code:
var testTween:Tween = new Tween(...);
testTween.onMotionFinished = function():void{
var testTween:Tween = new Tween(..);
}
But when you got like 36 pieces or something, this tween gets really big. Is it possible to use some kind of loop to get the same result? Or maybe a function that gets one movieclip at a time?

I'm designing a flash game where you collect an item to gain score, which then moves to another random spot where you can collect it again, etc. I've got most of it working, but I also want to add a "bonus" item, which appears after a specified time in a random place (like the original item), but I can't seem to get it working.
I tried using setInterval, but it just kept jumping all around the screen, which isn't what I wanted. I just wanted it to appear on the stage and stay there until you collect it. So I tried using a clearInterval after, and it just didn't work.
I have a piece of code, and in that function i call to another function that has 3 parameters.now i've decided that i want that last function to be called after a couple of secs, instead of immedietly. I can't simply use a timer, and addEventlistener, because then i cant give parameters.
View 14 RepliesI'm having this trouble with Tweenlite. I downloaded it and started to use it since it was quite easier to do the tint morph, and that part works great! However, one thing I've noticed is that for some reason, If i activate more then one thing that has a function at a time, it will freeze up most of the time.
For example. When you click on one of the links in the Nav Bar, it uses Tween Lite to scroll to the page you selected, with out trouble. So after I had done that, i wanted to make it so that Upon rollover, the Links in the Navbar would change color. Now they both still do what they are told yet 90% of the time one of them freezes, whether its the page that scrolls halfway and stops, or the color on the link halfway to its final destination color. Is there a known fix for this or is this the tradeoff?
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?
