ActionScript 2.0 :: Have An Enemy Square That Chases The Player Square?
Jan 15, 2010I have this game, and some levels have a moving square as the player, you move the square with your arrow keys.... I want to have an enemy square that chases the player square.... They only chased mario when you didn't look at them? Kinda like that...... but in this regards:
I only want the enemy square to chase the player square when the player square moves.... soo say the player square moves 5 pixels per movement (know how to do all that), I want the enemy square to move when the player square moves..... towards the player square at like 7 pixels per movement..... so eventually you won't be able to avoid the enemy square....
ActionScript 3.0 :: Make A Variable Name With Square Brackets?
Jun 20, 2011I'm trying to do that trick where you make a variable name with square brackets. I think I don't fully understand what I'm doing though...
Code:
var cursorDirection1:Point = pt.subtract(rootpos1);
var cursorDirection2:Point = pt.subtract(rootpos2);
var farShoulder:int = 1;//1 = left 2 = right
[Code]....
I'm trying to avoid having to do a conditional to choose between cursorDirection1 or cursorDirection2. My last line there isn't working, I'm not entirely sure why. Assuming farShoulder is 1, the code should be interpreted as
Code:
cursorDirection1.normalize(findNormVar(cursorDirection1));
but I'm getting errors about the input being undefined.

Dec 26, 2010There's something I'm trying to make but I just can't seem to figure it out. I want to make something that allows a person to build a deck of cards from multiple sets of cards. I also want a button that can be clicked to randomly choose a card from the created deck. For example: lets say there are four sets of thirteen cards (hearts, diamonds, spades, and clubs). The user can select which of the four sets will be included in the deck. Once the sets are chosen the user can click a button and one card will be chosen from the selected sets. What is the best way to handle something like this? Is there a tutorial that explains how to do something like this?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Write A Program That Draws A Pythagoras?
Feb 26, 2009I want to write a program that draws a Pythagoras tree. The only programming language I know is C but I tried it in that language and it was horrible. Someone recommended Flash (AS3) to me so I am trying it in that now, but I only started learning it yesterday. Anyway, I got to the point where I can draw the leftturning branch of the Pythagoras tree, but I don't know how to draw the other branches. The number of "houseshapes" a square with a rectangular triangle on top increases with every step according to the formula 1 x 2^(n-1) (First step is n=1). I created a function that draw this houseshape, called drawHouse() and it takes as its arguments the co-ordinate of the lower left corner of the square part of the house, the length of the side of the square part of the house and the current rotation angle. Rotation angles are always multiples of 45 for now, but I might try to expand it to other values later, but for now I hardcoded a lot of stuff that assumes the 'roof' of the house is a rectangular triangle.

Flex :: Sprites Are All Draws From X - Y Coordinates That Receive From XML
Jun 2, 2010The orange square is the currently selected selected sprite. The sprites are all draws from coordinates that i receive from XML. var sprObject:Sprite = new Sprite();
[Code]...
What I want to do is the following. If I'm currently on the orange square and I use my keyboard direction buttons (up/down/left/right). I want to deselect the current sprite and select the next sprite in the appropriate direction. The problem I'm having is that I cannot get the x and y coordinates of the drawn sprites. If I look in the array, the x and y coordinates of the sprites are all 0. If I can retrieve that I can write an algorithm to determine the next sprite to select.
Actionscript 3 :: UI Component: Two Classes - One Draws The Other Doesn't
Nov 30, 2011I am working with a flex project with a main mxml file and two actionscript classes that draw graphics. From reading tons of articles and posts I discovered that they must extend UIComponent, which they do. The first actionscript class draws the image fine. The first class then makes the call to create a new object. The second object does not display. In the pure actionscript version I had to pass the stage as a reference for the second class to draw.
I also found a similar question here at stackoverflow:UIComponent extended class isn't showing UIComponent extended class. But I was not sure how to apply it to my example.Which, if any UIComponent methods should be overrided for the second object to display? How specifically should I implement them in this example?
// First class "Ball" draws a circle successfully then creates a second object "MyRect"
package dr {
import flash.display.*;

Actionscript 3 :: Draws Bigger Sprite Than I Have Set (padding/margin?
Mar 30, 2012i created my own Button which simply extends from Sprite.Its able to show 3 different text fading in and out using a timer.In my draw function i first draw a rectangle with the Sprites graphics object representing the background of the button.I added a function to set the button width. This property is used to draw the rectangle. I know that the sprites's size is updated after the rectangle drawing. But for some reason the sprite's width is always more than what i have set via my "setButtonWidth" function.Now i have a simple sprite acting as a button having a graphics.drawRectangle part drawing a simple rect. with lets say 500px width. But when i trace the width of that button it is always about 10% more. Where are these 10% coming from?I read about calling validateNow(). But this is only for Labels, or Checkboxes. For some reason i cannot access the library for Label. This must work somehow with TextFields. But how?
// this function is part of MyButtonClass.as file
function drawButton()

ActionScript 2.0 :: Create A Movie That Draws A Shape On Screen?
Jun 22, 2003how I can create a movie that draws a shape on screen.
I understand how to draw a line, etc but can not work out how to see the shape build. I do not want something likes Kirupas' drawing demo as I do not want the viewer to create the shape.
For example I want to see the lines being drawn and control the speed, rather than the shape simply appearing in the movie.
I realise I need to change the lineTo value
An example is the way the TV is drawn in [URL] although I am not sure if this uses actionscript or is something else.

View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: BitmapData's Draw() Method Also Draws Objects With 0 Alpha
Mar 17, 2011I am drawing a flash sprite on a BitmapData using its draw() method. This sprite has some nested objects with 0 alpha, yet the draw() method draws them on the bitmap data.
I think it has to do with the color transform I am using, but I have no idea how to change it to achieve the effect I want.
The color transform is the following:
Code:
new ColorTransform(1, 1, 1, 1, 255, 255, 255, 255);
I am using these values in order for the Bitmap to have white pixels wherever the object was, and black where there is nothing. The draw() also draws my alpha = 0 objects in white as well.
