I am having a problem with this actionscript, i post it on my mc but it doesnt work. (except for the turning it just wont go forward or back)
CODE:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
//This code will advance the car forward.
if (Key.isDown(Key.UP)) {
speed += 1;

I have a embedded video animation clip that I need to control the speed it plays.The animation is of a ball spinning and when its rolls long X access i need the animation to move at the speed of the mc moves and slow down at the same rate.dose anyone know if I can control the frame rate and speed of a mc and the direction which is plays?any other option is to rotate an png but the problem im having with that is: when i import a circle png and brake it apart then remove the extra parts of the image leaving just the circle and have it aligned to the center. when i rotate it and move it along the X access base of the height of the mc it bobs up and down like this still counting the removed parts of the png in the
View 2 RepliesI am creating a ping pong game. And I want to create the ability to control the direction of the ball based on the impact on the paddle. If the ball is coming down at vy = 4; vx = 4;
and the paddle is moving to the left at vx = -5; I want the ball to slightly change its course depending on how fast the paddle is moving. It would probably reduce the balls vx speed on collision, therefore making the ball move more straight (close to the Y axis) when it is moving back up.
I figure the solution for probably doing this would be to measure how fast the paddle is going. My problem is the paddle is controlled by the mouse and has no certain speed. I am trying to figure out how I can measure the speed of my mouse traveling on the x axis.
I am probably going to create a timer that fires every few seconds to determine where the mouse was and where it is at. figure the difference and that will be the speed
I'm developing a game atm, and I need some help on the mathematics/coding of colliding circles (and their change in x/y speed). What i need to know is how to calculate the direction and speed a circle has after colliding with a static (non-moving) circle. I know how to detect a collision between the two, but I'm not sure about the maths I need to give the circle the right speed and direction after the collision
If i do know how far away the two circle-points (in the middle of each) are to each other (in both x and y coords) would it be easy for me to find the new speed and direction of the large circle in the example above? I know that I somehow should use the angles to pretend the circle hits a flat "wall" (as it only hits one point), and then calculate the new speed/direction. My only problem is that I'm not sure how to decide the angle of this flat "wall" and how x and y speeds should change when colliding with a wall that is angled. Does anyone here have any insight, links or tips on how I can du this?

View 6 Repliesi have a scroller developed in as2. it basically scrolls continuously in a direction until the direction of the mouse is changed. the images of course loop in the continuous scroll. now the problem is that for 10-15 photos its ok. but when i feed it with 180 photos, it seems to show only 11. why would this be? any restriction on flash ??
View 1 Replieshave a ball with the name of mc which can be moved using the keyboard .. when you press the left mouse button shoots the ball, this ball and the other flies in the face where the cursor was in the shot .. but if you move the cursor to another location and shoot a second time then the second ball is also flying in the direction of the cursor and the first ball change direction toward a second shot ..
ActionScript Code:
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.DisplayObject;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
[Code]....
how to make that first ball did not change its direction and continued to fly in the direction of the shot?
I want to add an animated .gif file to my movie. So I created a new symbol and then imported the .gif file to the stage. This created the symbol containing the animated .gif.I dragged the symbol onto the scene where I want it. However, the animation seems to play at a different speed (fps) than normal. So I changed the fps of the symbol (at bottom of Timeline where it says "fps"). But for some reason this changes the fps of the rest of the entire movie.
View 3 RepliesI'm tweening a movieclip from startX to finishX. The value of startX varies but finishX is a constant. But as the startX increases in value the animation appears to be quicker. How do I adjust the speed of the tween to ensure a consistant speed regardless of the value of startX?

View 2 RepliesI have a movie clip on my scene which has a speed applied to it making it move across the screen. This is duplicated when it reaches the other end of the screen.On my scene I have some action script which is acting as a timer. After a set time I want it to increase the speed of the movie clips, making the game become "harder". I seem to be able to manipulate the alpha of my movie clips but can't seem to trigger the speed increase.If i use a setInterval it seems to trigger the speed increase but it does it each time the movie clip is duplicated (so the delay resets, it does not change once and apply throughout)However, where I am changing the alpha I cannot seem to change the speed.

View 10 RepliesIt is really nice to see the new text direction for TLF but i have one problem with it.We are trying to localize our flash application using strings. so far we follow the traditional way of translating each string and assign it with ID. Our 2 main languages are English and Hebrew. The problem is that for english we need to use LTR direction while in hebrew it is RTL.in a big flash application were the number of tlftextfields are big it is impossible for us to change the direction for individual tlftextfieldsin .

Anyways here is the problem. [URL].. Go here and upload an image and notice how when you drag the image a black box still appears to visually show the image is under the Obama logo image. I am trying to figure out how this was accomplished.
First: Is a mask being used to only show the image in that particular area? Or is this an transparent gif above the uploaded image? If a mask is being used then how is the rectangle achieved and how is the drag and drop still working when the mask hides the image?
Second: How is this box effect being achieved? Those are the most important questions. I figured out how to make an image resize using a slider. However I am curious how this guy did the advanced image resizer.
If someone can point me in the right direction as to how this is accomplished that would be great. [URL]..

I've been experimenting with path finding, in particular the A* algorithm. I've understand the basics for it and can currently get an object to move from point A to B avoiding walls. However I'm trying to create one way blocks, (then eventually add turn left and right only and T juncs etc) so I don't have to use thick walls to prevent the object from taking a certain route. The code I have so far is....

View 2 RepliesRecently an associate of mine and I built this site www.grievewinery.com. It seems to be working fine for everyone EXCEPT the owner himself. I am at a total loss. I have checked it on 4 MACS and 7 PC's of all different browsers and variations. I have asked them to try all variations on the URL, such as leaving off the http, the www - any and all ways possible. Nothing. For the life of me I cannot surmise why the owner himself would not be able to view the site unless he had a typo or needed a FLASH update, of which he would be prompted as such, correct?

View 1 RepliesWith mx:Box I can set the direction to be either "horizontal" or "vertical". I'd like to reverse the order of the components in the box though. For example:
Before:

I've created a custom component that lives in a mx:Box and would like to do this in as simplest a way as possible.
