Movie Clip Depth Always Highest?
May 2, 2010I'm creating this shooter game. I attached a crosshair mc at the beginning with the depth set to getNextHighestDepth.However I keep adding the monsters mc dynamically when the game progresses, also with getNextHighestDepth. So the monster mc will keep overriding the depth of my crosshair's depth. how to get my crosshair mc's depth always to be on top of everything including the monster mc.I tried getNextHighestDepth()+1000 for my crosshair mc. But it was dumb because the monsters keep getting getNextHighestDepth as well. I assume that monster's depth would be 1001, 1002 and so on...

Sep 12, 2010I'm adding a custom cursor, and I need it to stay at the highest depth. Currently, whenever I add new movie clips to the screen, the custom mouse shows up behind the movie clips, which looks terrible. I have to add movie clips regularly during runtime, but I need the custom cursor to stay above them, just like the regular mouse would.
Here's how I'm adding the custom cursor:
Mouse.hide();
var cross= new crosshairs();
this.addChild(cross);
cross.depth = 999999;
cross.startDrag(true);

Dec 26, 2005When I trace the next highest depth at the initial frame of my SWF it returns 9877. Is this due to the way I setup the objects and layers through authoring? The reason I ask is that this is somehow interfering with my attachMovie and unloadMovie (unloadMovie stops working after another 6 extra depths).

ActionScript 2.0 :: Assigning A Movie Clip A Depth?
Mar 16, 2009I'm re-arranging how I have the movie set up (I used to have it in multiple .SWF's, but now I'm making it into one big movie), but I've ran into a snag. I don't know how to assign a movie clip a depth. The reason this is a problem is that if I were to attach a movieclip (Say Movie1), it would overlap another movieclip's (Movie2) drop shadow.Movie2 isn't assigned a depth because it's loaded along with the first movie, but Movie1 is assigned a depth when it's loaded on a click

Actionscript :: Find A Descendant With Highest Value In Xml?
Dec 10, 2010ok so in actionscript using xml I can find all the nodes of the same name using
