I used to play this cool game (till the blocked it in school ) where you click and a helicopter flys up, while its going through a tunnel. Decided to try recreating the fun but having problems when it comes to deleting the sections of the tunnel after they go off the screen. I'll show you what I mean.
Code:
scenewidth = 550
points = 20;

I have a simple quesiton about class, method and functions inside a method and class properties. I created a new class form my custom component.. But upon developing it I found out that you can not access a property inside the function which is also inside a method..
Example
Code:
class myClass{
private var myProperty:Number = 1; //default is 1
//constructor
public function myClass(){
}//Method
[Code] .....
What I want to do is to access the property inside the method.. I also have a work-around still i cannot point a certain variable to a property of my class inside the method's function..
Im building a game where i would like the blood stains (when shooting people) to never disapear. Now i just spawn a movieclip/sprite on the map whenever a body is been hit, and just leave the stain there. The problem is that this gets very choppy after a while and the fps is plummeting...
I also spawn gun shells after every shoots been fired, and thats flawless, it never lags one bit. I guess this is due to the tiny size (compared to the blood stains)?
I would have given up if i would not have found this game, where it works without any lag - at all. In this game the blood stains are never removed and all bodies are still on the ground, no lag. [URL]..
I am programming a side-scrolling game. I want to be able to control the speed of the endless side-scrolling background relative to the speed and position the player is moving at.
I want to know how to do a few things:
Like, if the player is running, the background scrolls faster. If the Player is walking, the background scrolls slower. If the player isn't Moving, the background shouldn't be moving. If the it is at the start
Or end of the level, the background should stop moving too.
I have three flv videos (video1.flv, video2.flv and video3.flv) and I want to play them one after the other (no controls, no skins). When video3.flv is finished I need the movie to restart playing video1.flv again and the rest after it, an endless loop.
How can I do that??
I've tried including the videos one after the other in the time line and in the last frame a gotoAndPlay(1); This works, but the final .swf weights almost 10mb. The project is web based so this is way too heavy.
Now I'm trying the flvPlayback component, but I'm getting quite lost here. I'm importing the three flv to the library. The video implementing wizard shows for each flv but finally I have only one FLVPlayback element in the library. Then I drag an instance on the stage but I don't know how to continue .. Am I doing it correctly? If so how can I continue? Will this method give me a lighter final .swf?
I have made a game, and now I'm putting in a highscore-function. Like the one below, who reads the highscore-list. Everything is working fine when testing from flash, but when I start the swf-file from the folder (or test it on the iPhone), it just loops throught every frame, why is this? If I cut out the code below, it works fine on both stand-alone sfw-file and on the iPhone. I've tried to only use the first line below, to test, and it loops.
ActionScript Code:
var file2:File = File.documentsDirectory.resolvePath("highscore.txt");
// Create a file stream to write stuff to the file.
var stream2:FileStream = new FileStream();
[Code].....
This script goes with "prev scroll button"
trace(_level0.imagestrip_mc.images._x+"before images");
trace(_level0.imagestrip_mc._x+"before imagestrip");
var tab = new mx.transitions.Tween(_level0.imagestrip_mc, "_x", Strong.easeIn,

I have tried about as many tutorials as I can find online to create a contact form within my flash that emails me when someone fills out the forms, including a very good step by step at VTC. What I have found is that most of these tutorials start with the assumption that you're creating the contact form on a blank flash canvas, which is reality, is not always the case. So while I am sometimes able to get the forms to work if I do it on a brand new Flash movie, the moment I try to recreate the form within my current flash file, it stops working. I have mostly tried to recreate the contact form as a seperate movie within my flash file on it's own layer and have tried placing the Submit button within the contact form movie and also outside of it - neither works of course

View 1 RepliesImagine you have 10 movie clips, only 1 is visible on stage at any time. Using the arrow keys for example, you can move through the movie clips, click left and the one on screens moves left and the next one in line moves in from the right. When you reach number 10, and you click left, number 10 will move off left and number 1 will come back on right. And vice versa.
This is what I have to try to get worked out. Currently I have a variable which keeps track of which panel is displaying, and as I click on one of two movie clips I check with a conditional to see if that variable is >10 or <1 and then either + or - 1 appropriately, or set it to either 1 or 10, so that number loops.
So that logic part works. What I now need to do is cleanly work out the tweening of the movie clips. I'm using TweenMax. I am currently using another conditional that gets told if the user pressed left or right, then it uses a switch to check the current panel number, and then after all of that it tweens the correct stuff. But that's a huge load of code and I reckon there must be a cleaner way.
Here is my messy code:
Code:
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.events.Event;

View 2 RepliesI've always struggled with this for some reason, but say I have 5 images loading from XML. How would I make it so they would cross fade each other on an endless loop? I can make it so it gets to the end by loading them on top of each other and then fading each one out, but once I get to the end I'm lost.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to create a endlessly scrolling bitmap background. I want to make it as efficient as possible as there is plenty of other game logic going on too. The idea is to have a repeatable bitmap scroll horizontally on an endless loop, which can obviously be achieved by placing two sprites of the same bitmap next to each other and offsetting one when it reaches the far left boundary. I was wondering if there is perhaps a faster more efficient way to do this, perhaps using scrollRect or copyPixels? If anyone has any idea which method would be fastest,

The problem is that once I start the animation (by clicking a button), I get a timeout error saying the script has been running for longer than 15 seconds, with no tweening ever occurring. The animation works if I were simply animating it once.
I've created a menu that appears as a series of cubes. The action script for these boxes will work on a stand alone file... The main menu uses a series of buttons that work like variables and also works fine in a test file... when the movie for the "architecture" button is loaded it loads the content_mc and then sub menu goes nuts. The buttons continue to cycle their movie clips regardless of the mouse position.

I recently wrote a small script to display an endless scroll for 360 degree images. The image is loaded dinamically so I can use it as a viewer for all the 360 degree images in the site's gallery. It works fine, but I found one image that appears truncated even though everything else works as expected. I found this [URL] that says: The maximum image size of a Flash 2 movie is 2880 x 2880 pixels The image that is giving me this problem is larger than that and it seems to be cut at 2880px widht. Can anyone confirm this? And if so, is there any way to override it since I'm using pure as? Despite the years working with flash, I keep finding these nasty surprises. Last time I learned about the 16,000 frame limit when working on a cd presentation... I wonder what's next.

For a project, I'm making an interactive side scroller.You move the character with the arrow keys and press the space bar to interact with things.So far, I followed DexNote's tutorial on YouTube.I thought that I would make the interactable objects as buttons, while the mouse focus would be on the character and when you press the space bar it make a mouse click in that area.The trouble I'm having now is that I don't know how to make the space bar trigger the "interactions."
