This is the URL for an awesome game. I have decided I would like to extend my flash knowledge by making a game like this. Now I have the movement downpat, but using hittests, thats how to create the game so you can not walk in certain places/areas. how to use hittest and give me the code for stopping movement when you hit a wall.
use a hitTest, but I can't seem to change the value of moveSpeed (my variable for... well, speed).Here is the script without my failed attempt:
Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
moveSpeed = 6;

I am trying to create a sort of RPG. I currently have four way directional movement working, but I'm having difficulty figuring out code to make the character stop moving when he touches a wall, and them move again when you press a different key.
Normally i wouldn't find this difficult, except most of the walls are angled, not straight lines. I'm using hitTestPoint for collision detection, and that works just fine. I just don't know good code for making the character stop.
Using Flash 8 - AS2. I have a movie clip that moves from side to side based on the position of the mouse. If the mouse is right of center, the movie clip moves left, the speed based on the distance of the pointer to the center. Conversely, the same for the other direction.
Here's the AS on the clip event:
PHP Code:
onClipEvent(load){
speed=10;
}onClipEvent(enterFrame){
this._x += (_root.center-_root._xmouse)/speed;
}
(the speed variable is just a simple method to slow down my motion.)
Now what I need it to do and can't figure out out is this:
> How to get it to have upper and lower limits of motion.
> How to get it to slow down and stop at the upper and lower limits
> How to get it to stop at the limit until the mouse triggers movement back in the other direction
Logically, it could be said in this manner:
1) Move the clip right or left based on mouse position.
2) If clip _x nears the maximum (or minimum), change speed as a function of the distance remaining to the extent - in order to slow down the movement.
3) When clip _x reaches the maximum (or minimum), stop motion and permit no further motion in that direction.
I'm having trouble making a scrolling "portfolio" for a website.
Basically, when the mouse is over the left arrow, it moves right & visa versa. The problem i'm having is that I can't stop it when the mouse leaves the arrow, and it just continues moving.
It's a graphic thats moving left & right with a mask over the top.
//identitiy is the image moving
function left(){
movement=10;
[Code].....
I am proud of myself for getting this far, but I cannot figure the rest.I have a movie clip that moves from side to side based on the position of the mouse. If the mouse is right of center, the movie clip moves left, the speed based on the distance of the pointer to the center. Conversely, the same for the other direction. [code]Now what I need it to do and can't figure out out is this:
> How to get it to have upper and lower limits of motion.
> How to get it to slow down and stop at the upper and lower limits
> How to get it to stop at the limit until the mouse triggers movement back in the other direction
I ended up here because of the bouncing tutorial, and for awhile there I thought I was onto the solution, but I cannot get it retrofitted to work with my mouse position stuff.
If you take a look at this site Game then you will see that when you hit the walls or boundrys you "bounce" off them. I have accomplished stopping movement when hittest occurs but how shall I get the car to "bounce" off the walls. It would be great if you could supply the full code as I am not a great coder.
View 1 RepliesI want it to while still easing into place like the iphone does. For example my stage is 550px. The drag and throw MC is 1650. That's 550x3. If the first image is showing starting at x axis 0 and you drag to the left it will ease into place stopping and showing the second image stopping the image at x axis 0. And the same thing scrolling to the next one and scrolling back. So the code is below and I've attached the movie that I'm working on.

flash pro. as 3.0.animation . almost no codes except ends of scenes having :

SoundMixer.stopAll();
}

i got this scene, with this specific bgm , individual frame layer. and the sounds at another layer. what i want is to stop the sound without stopping the bgm . (yes, i know the above code wouldn't work as it stops all sounds)
I am making a character walk. This code will make him wobble to the right and when thats done it will trigger him to wobble to the left and then call the function again to continue the loop.I can get the loop to work fine by calling the function but how do I STOP the function? Also I want to call it later on. Is there a way to start and stop a function?
function wobble()
{
var ws = .1;
var dis = 1;

I've been playing with carousel code, and was wondering how to change it from circular animation (carousel) to left/right linear (conveyer belt) style animation, how to change the mover code and 't.angle = i * ((Math.PI*2)/numOfItems);'

I have a mc (fStrip) which looks like a piece of filmstrip with thumbnail images in it. I want this mc to move when the users mouse is positioned over it, but I only want it to move only along it's x-axis and in a direction opposite that of the mouse. And I want it to move or flow smoothly.
I've been trying to figure this out (see my lame attempt below) but without much luck.
onClipEvent (mouseMove) {
buffer=20 //movement buffer
mousePos=_root.fStrip._xmouse //store mouse position
if (mymouse!=_root.fStrip._xmouse){ //if the mouse has moved

I wish to get the effect of ants scuttering across the screen or up a tree, I have not decided which direction yet. I started with the tutorial code for the snow effect from kirupa, and changed it around to fit the little vector ant I created. The way I have it now looks pretty good, but the movement is a little too fluid. They obviously move in sinusoidal paths bc the code tells them to. I have about 20 copies of the main obj, and they're all a little different in size and specs (speed, transparency, etc) but what I was wondering was if there is any way I can change the code to make it a little more hectic, or erratic, not so fluid. If there is no way of doing so, it looks pretty good right now. If there is, however, I think it could look awesome. here's the code I'm using for the object.
onClipEvent (load) {
//stage
movieWidth = 850;
movieHeight = 50;

how to get the camera to move with a character? At the minute he just moves off screen when i press right rather than the camera following him.
View 3 RepliesI have a Mogli (Junglebook-like) Character that i got to move with the arrow keys on the keyboard.
I want the character to jump (so for example , he must while moving to the right of the "gamearea" , you must be able to hit a key (say for example the "control" key ) and then the character must jump ( go up ) and as soon as the key is released he must obviously come down.
And also how do one set movement speed on any particular movement.

I have created a flash AS3 file with two movieclips. One is a ball (ball_mc) and a wall (wall_mc). The ball bounces around off the outer walls of the stage, in horizontal lines.
The ball also changes direction if it bounces off the wall. However its not bouncing off the wall in the right direction?
Code:
var dx:Number=3; //the amount the ball will move horizontally each frame
var dy:Number=5; //the amount the ball will move vertically each frame
this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,moveBall); // call the function moveBall every frame

View 2 RepliesI got Facebook to work with Flash as I wanted it to using the Facebook-Actionscript-Api. Works great and I got get Graph api working so that I'm able to post stuff to ppl's walls using the Facebook.api("/me/feed") post stuff without asking the user permission, as it's already got that permission, and it's great for many occasions. But not all.
View 1 RepliesI have been asked to design an LCD wall application for a display like the one in this ad. Requirements are that the wall can display full screen video or partition the wall in different sections to display multiple video or images and video. I would like to understand what platform can be used to drive such beasts (what OS? what video card?). I wonder what software platform can drive multimedia on such a scale. Html5 + JavaScript would be OK on a single monitor, but on that scale would it slow down? Flash also is an interesting platform, as it is Air, but, once again, can it scale like that?
I am also considering the server architecture that is needed to drive a set of walls in the same location and the slideshow designer to create storyboards, but this is dependent on what client architecture will be embraced.
How do I add a widget to Facebook wall? So when a user clicks on wall post, it gets opened there only, like YouTube video/audio.
It's certainly possible, as Slideshare app [URL] does it.
And, I see that it's a Flash component. I have an iframe (Javascript/html) widget.
Can I get the user wall status in Facebook using as3? Using me/feed/...something ?
View 1 RepliesIn the comments of this question, users have commented that it's possible to insert a Flash applet into a Facebook wall post. I was under the impression this isn't possible without making a FB app.
I'm aware that FB will convert links to various media types - e.g. a link to a MP3 becomes automagically a SWF MP3 player, but the Flash applet used is chosen by FB's internal logic, not by the content of the post. Is it possible to embed a SWF applet of your own choosing?
As I haven't been able to find any documentation on this, has anyone else? Or, do you have some PoC code that does this?
