I'm making a shooting game, would like the gun to flip _xscale when you move the gun past half the width of the stage. Here's the script I made which doesn't work and is probably not written correctly:
if(_xmouse >= Stage.width/2){
_root.gun_mc._xscale * -1;
}

I am at uni and have a project to create an interactive game for the story Johnny Mnemonic. I would like to create a game whereby the player has a whip type weapon, there is an opponent jumping up and down and with the whip you attack them and cut off limbs -
I'm thinking it would be like a simple shooting ducks style game in terms of coding, the player has visible just a hand with the whip in it, you move the whip to your desired location click chosen button to hit, the whip then animates a flick, if it hits correct spot on bouncing opponent then an animation of the limb flying off happens, so the bouncing opponent is like the duck and the whip like the gun - if that is right at all?
I've been making this space shooting game but I'm having problems getting boundaries to work. I've read tutorials and done lots of searching here and couldn't get anything to work... On the main time line, there's 2 layers. One with the ship, and one with the background (both are movie clips). Inside the background movie clip, I'd like to add boundaries, almost as complex as a maze but not so restricting.. as in, a path to fly through that'd probably be as wide as the screen itself. Here's what I'm trying to work with. Use the arrow keys to move, space to shoot, and press control to toggle between fixed camera and fixed ship modes.
View 1 RepliesSo the problem is basicly this: It all works just fine, but when the bullet hits the target it gets destroyed (this is ok) but also any bullet that was shoot before it (meaning also: with a lower y) gets destroyed aswell wich is anoying. Here's the code (left the comments so you can find your way around easier)
Code:
stop();//add a stop function too!
enemyspeed =1
life=3
var gameOver:Boolean = false;

I'm making a Space Invaders-type game. Y'know? Arrow keys to fly Space to shoot? Well, shooting isn't working so well. I have two .as files: Ship.as which controls the ship's ActionScript, and Missile.as which is supposed to control the missile. When I hit load it up I get the error: The class or interface 'Missile' could not be loaded.
View 2 RepliesI am creating a 2d platform shooting game. Currently I have my main character walking around left and right and the stage background also moves left and right.
The problem I am having is that if I go to far left the charater just walks 'off stage' and into nothingness but the stage still follows. How can I make it so if the character hits a certain point he just 'stops' and cant go left no more but can go right no problem. I have tried using hitTest with another movieclip but couldnt get it working.[code]...
Ok I am creating a 2d game similar to the original mega mans and mario for nintendo. The character moves back and forth using the left and right arrow keys on the screen and has a walk animation and all. The next step is to get him to shoot his laser gun. I want this to be done using the space bar key. What I have right now is identical to Kirupa's movement using X and Y values tutorial but it only moves one direction of course. How can I make it so that it will continue to move automatically after pressing space instead of having to hit the space bar each time I want it to move 10 units over etc.?

I have benn programming in AS2 for a while, but I'm moving to AS3, and I'm having some trouble with syntax and mostly with management of parameters and variables (actually I tried to work with functions in packages without good results T.T). The game has four different types of shooters, and all of them use the same bullet (shoot function). I have succeeded on disappearing the target (a coin in this case) when it is hit by the bullet, but the problem is that I can't quite find the way to dissapear the bullet properly. I keep receiving this message:
ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.

I'm doing the shooting game. In that character should move left and right by using the arrow keys. The background is movieClip with image. The character is walking very slow sometimes. And the zombies will come automatically. Why the movement is very slow sometimes?
View 4 RepliesI'm making a flash game in AS2, and i am having troubles with my gun, i have fiddled with it for a while now and i have narrowed down the problem, but i can't fix it. My problem is that i want a gun to follow the player, but the coordinates are messing up and going to his feet.
Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
_y += (_root.player._y-_y)/1; //This code makes it goto his feet, but the gun no longer follows player when he jumps.
_x += (_root.player._x-_x)/1;[code].............
Basically, I have a border(line) at the top of the stage so that whenever my ship's missile comes in contact with this line, it is removed and a rebound missile clip is attached.Here is the missile code:
Actionscript Code:[code].....The problem is that the rebound missile always spawns at left of the stage, not wherever the ship missile was removed.I'm not sure if I should attach the fla, action script files, swf etc. to the thread. Also, my flash version is CS5.

View 2 RepliesI am using flash cs5.5 right now and I have in my library two movie clips. One contains the main class and the other is created to do a function, which is to flip the cards the main class creates. I have designed the cards inside the "Card10" movie clip (which contains the class that flips the cards). But when I test the game, my cards don't flip.
Here's the code :
package {
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;
public dynamic class Card10 extends MovieClip {
private var flipStep:uint;

I have positioned my cards so the registration point is in the center of the cards.
I'm making a card game with two shuffling decks. The cards from both decks are also supposed to flip and drag. My first deck is working fine, but in my second deck, the card won't flip. Every time I try to flip the card in the second deck, I get this output message: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at Wicky/clickCard() I don't get any compiler errors at the moment, but I get that message every time I click on deck two. The card does drag, but it won't flip, and that error message pops up.

3D movement in Flash. Basically what i want is to have 2 or > objecton the stage placed on different z axis and when u click on one object it brings the camera forward to the specific coordinates. Then you can also click on another object and it will bring to the new object that you just clicked on.I can do half of it, but actually when one object's z coordinate reaches 0, it flip around and then go at the back.what i want to achieve but how can avoid making the object flip or just tell him to stay where it is so i can always go back to initial position of the camera and then click again on it.

I am making a cross hair. When I highlight an enemy it should turn red. When it Highlights an ally it should turn blue.I have made a heart beat Monitor that needs a animation for a heartbeat and Flat lining. The Background of the Heart beat monitor Changes color according what has happened to the player, If the player Gets hit the background of the heartbeat monitor changes color. If the Player gets hit too much the Heart Beat Monitor will flat line.Then I am making a radar for the hud.
creating a flip-book in flash (using AS3) . I've looked at the other flip-book programs and editors out there, and none really give the customization that my company wants.I have something working, but the page scoping seems to be off. The pages will turn back and forward with a button click but they flip out of order. However, it all runs fine with no error when the user clicks on the pages themselves. This is the code from the main timeline (where I'm getting an error).

I am making a word game app in flash for the touch screens, except I really don't know how to have the game recognize words. Is there some trick to doing this?

I want to make a multiplayer flash game- something very basic, like each person controls a dot which they can move around (doing this as a learning experience, not because it seems like a great concept for a game ). I'm pretty new to PHP and mySQL, and don't have a lot of experience in making flash apps that interact with outside scripts... and here's the approach i've thought up so far.i design the swf so that every 30th of a second or so it checks an xml file on the server (http:servernamedata.xml), and also sends a request to the server to run a php script and sends it four boolean values (which keys the player is pressing). The php script runs- it loads a mysql database which has each players x/y coordinates, adjusts those coordinates according to the bool (if player is pressing keys), resends the x/y coordinates to the mysql database, and generates an updated version of the xml, which the swf running on each players client computer will check to determine where to draw each dot.So to get to the point, what i want to know is:
1: is what i described even possible?
2: if it can be done, is this a good way to go about it or is it horribly innefficient (i eventually want to make games more complicated than moving dots around, and have as much code run server-side as possible to prevent hacking/cheating)
3: if this is a possible and OK way to do this, what sort of AS3 script do you use to make a flash app have a server execute a php script?
I'm trying to make a simple animation where there is ten balls floating around the stage, I want to be able to click on any of the balls and "throw" them. I'd also like there to be a boundary around the stage so the balls bounce off this when thrown.
