ActionScript 2.0 :: Making A Sprite Move In Directions From A List In An Array?
Jan 26, 2007
I wanted a sprite to move round on the screen when a play button was pushed. I have a left and a right button which store strings "left" or "right" into the next positions of an empty array called history.
When i push the play button i want i want the sprite to move either left or right according to what commands are in the array. My code just seems to play one single command and then stops when i hit play again it just repeats the same command.
Is there any way to make it play through all commands in the array one after another?
Here's the loop that i was trying to use.

I have a rollover and rollout effect in my for loop that affects all of the mcs in my array. But when I click on one of the mcs I want all of them to "explode" in all different directions. Obviously I would accomplish this by setting it up in my tween so that they all go in random directions. But I'm not exactly sure how to do it in my for loop. The way I have my onRelease function set up right now only makes the very last mc tween. How do I make my tween affect all of my mcs?
My code:
Code:
import com.greensock.TweenMax;
import com.greensock.easing.*;
var linkageID_array:Array = new Array();

I am making a game that involves a function that makes a bottle randomly explode in all directions. The function is on the main frame of my game and is linked to several movie clips inside the bottle. When the conditions are right, the movie clips should call the function and then fly out in random directions. The problem is, when i put the code directly onto the movie clips it works fine, but when i attempt to use it as a function is makes the entire movie move in random directions instead of the glass shard. My only guess as to why this happens is because this '_this.' command somehow applies to my main frame because that is where the function originates.

I want to generate large text files, basically 4 columns, several thousand rows, of numbers. Making an array with all this info in it occurs farily quickly, it's getting it to a displayable format that takes a really long time. Right now I use something like this:

This is a painfully simple concept and for some reason I can't get my head around it. The basic idea is I want a sprite to come down half way and then if it fails a random check, to reverse direction and move back towards the top.
Code:
private var _ReverseDirection:Boolean = (Math.random() > .5) ? true : false;
public var _Vel = 3;
public function main(){
[Code]....
So basically the the sprites created, a true/false boolean is made and the Loop function is started. As you can see though, as soon as the sprite starts moving backwards it fails the If statement and starts bouncing back and forth between passing and failing. I've toyed around with putting them in different functions, complex If statements, etc but it keeps coming back the conditions fluctuating back and forth.

I have what is undoubtedly a simple issue that I cannot seems to surpass. It may well simply be an order of operations type of problem, but as I'm not sure where the problem is, I don't know where to start! I'm essentially just having trouble getting anything to display on stage.verything is seemingly linked into the stage's display list correctly ~ The hierarchy goes as such:[MAIN object Sprite] loads and addChild's an object...-- [SECTION object Sprite] which loads/adds other child objects..---- [SCENE object Sprite] Which should loads/adds...------ [FX object Sprite] which holds actual visual data(shapes------ [FX object Sprite] which holds actual visual data (shapes)---- [FLOW object Sprite] Which holds no real visual datavia functions such as getSections, getScenes, getFX, etc, as are applicable. The issue is that although each object in the hierarchy is listed as a child of its appropriate parent, nothing displays.

I can move my man with aswd and shoot moving balls with space, but there is an issue with it. When I'm moving my man by holding down a key, and then press space to shoot off a ball, then movement halts and you have to up and down the key again, to make the man continue to move.Here is the code:
Code:
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, moveMan);
function moveMan(e:KeyboardEvent):void
[code]....
As you might be able to see, I tried using another variable to store the old key code in, and switch it after the actions of a space press has occured.e how to make the sprite move after another key has been pressed, without having to up and down the key again?

I'm making a copy of a Sprite via the BitmapData Draw method. It kind of works other than the top portion of the bitmap gets cut off (replaced with transparent pixels). It looks like it's about the same height as the Sprite's y value.
looks like this:

Say i have these two classes:
MAIN.as
package
{
import flash.display.*; import mx.core.*;
import flash.events.*; import mx.collections.*;
[Code]...
Now how is it that I can add the variable SPRITE which is a Sprite in the OBJECT_square class to the display list of MAIN class? I've tried addChild(SPRITE) and super.addChild(SPRITE). If everything works I should see a red square somewhere on the screen but right now its all blank, except for the text drawn in the MAIN class.
Basically I want it so i can just make a new OBJECT_square and it will draw itself without any more instructions from the MAIN class.

By default, the iconFunction of List and Tree return only Class as the icon, which is for embeded images or iconUtility kindly provided by this site http:[url]...... It works very well with pre-created images.But what I really want is to accept a completely runtime generate sprite object, similar to what is done by Legend, with the color changes according to what the current status. I assume I could do something to make the ListBase to accept icon argument other than Class.

I'll start by posting my code then explain what I want it to achieve.

What I am attempting and failing to do after much trial and error is to have a random ingredient from the ingredientList array pushed into the previewIngredients array making sure the new value going in is not already in the preview ingredients array. If the same value is there I want it to keep choosing an ingredient from the list array until it finds a value thats not in the preview array then push that one in there. It feels like I'm getting close but obviously I'm either going about it the wrong way or just missing a little somthing somthing out.

I want my mc to move in a wave shape (like a very low frequency signal) as it moves horizontally accross a blood vessel. I know how to do guide tween, however, I do not want this as I want it to be random. I have a numeric stepper which generates the no of salt particles.

I've made a draggable menu for a flash site (menu_mc), but the buttons don't work inside the movie clip when I apply startDrag. To remedy the problem, I simply made another movie clip (menubuttons). I now want to more or less attach the two movieclips:
Code:
if (menu_mc.moveTo(x,y)) {
menubuttons.moveTo(menu_mc.x,menu_mc.y)
};
I also tried some pretty iffy statements:
Code:
menubuttons._x = menu_mc._x
That last one works initially, but when I move menu_mc, menubuttons stays put.

I want to make a handle pull up and then down through an arc. Now using the startDrag on the Handle won't make the handle pivot around an axis. It needs to move a bit like a (one arm bandit) or (The old coin Poker Machines) I have attached a basic file to show the problem I have so far.

I have two movies in my Flash movie. One has the instance name of "Main" and the other "Content". I need to make it so that when I on(release) a button -the "Main" movie clip and the "Content" movie clip move to different locations on the stage. I want to do it without tweens (im trying to break that habbit) and I would really like it if the movies moved quickly to their targeted location with an ease of like 100 and when they reached their location they do that thing where they kinda over-shoot their target and bouce back to it.

I'm trying to make a movie clip move a small bit to the right and slowly (or quickly) dim until you can't see it. I've tried 2 different methods. The first was my original so that once you had the mouse in the original location of the movie, you just have to keep it there, you don't have to move the mouse with the clip. The 2nd was one i got after searching the forums. I've debugged out the for statement and tried just seeing if i could make a different movie's alpha change, and it didn't. So I believe the problem is either in the if (of the first) or onRollOver (of the 2nd).

xspot = _root._xmouse;
yspot = _root._ymouse;
