ActionScript 2.0 :: Switching Animations At Key Press/Controlling Character
Feb 10, 2002My only accomplishment so far with it was to create a space shooter game which i modified slightly and animated it or at least the enemy spache ships and the players spaceship.
Here is what I want to do, but cant seem to figure out
I want to have a character on screen who is standing stationary normally, but still facing a direction.(left or right)
Now I want to be able to switch to a walking animation towards the right when I press a key and a seperate animation for when he walks left also at the press of a key I want to do down and up to, but I should be able to figure those out once I learn left and right
I also want it so when I lt go of the key they stop the walking animation and return to stationary, but stay facing whatever direction i pointed them
ActionScript 3.0 :: Switching A Variable's State Back?
Mar 20, 2011Im currently programming a game and having the character animation respond to the spacebar to play a jump animation.
To cut the code down here is the bit that's the problem:
ActionScript Code:
var space:Boolean = false;
if (evt.keyCode == Keyboard.SPACE && space == false)
[Code]....
The script works great, apart from when the animation is over, the variable 'space' is set to true, but I need it to go back to false after the function has been applied.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Switching Back To Scene Object Gone
Sep 30, 2011In my app, I switch back and forth between Scene 1 & Scene 2 using gotoAndStop. No problems in either scene the first two times each. After doing Scene 2 the second time and going to Scene 1, one of my buttons is gone and the variable for it is null. The button was created with the IDE, not in my script and exists only in Scene 1. I have nothing in my script that moves it or removes it from the stage, let alone destroying the object itself.
Using the debugger, I noticed that the pointer for the object has changed at the very beginning of the scene (flash.Display.SimpleButton(@146fb21) to flash.Display.SimpleButton(@146fd91)). So it seems to me that display objects made with the IDE are destroyed (var = null) when exiting a scene and recreated when the entering the scene.
what could cause this one button and not any other similarly created objects (buttons, movieclips, textfields, etc.) not to be recreated and only after the second revisit to its scene.
Media Server :: Switching To Commercial And Back Instantly

Actionscript :: Switching Back Into Previous Function From Event Handler Function?
May 13, 2010I need to return to my original function after capturing an event (downloading something) with another function. The original function needs to return a value, which depends on the downloaded data. So, I'd like to pause original function for the time needed for the download and the eventhandler function to complete it's work, and resume it afterwards.
The obvious way is to set a flag value (both the original function and the eventhandler are within the same class) and make the original function check it until the eventhandler function changes the flag. But that would be wasteful, and my AS is slow enough already:) [other parts of the application utilise some heavy graphics]. Is there another way? Like an event that gets captured "in the middle" of the function? Or some other form of flow control?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Load Swfs From Array Back-to-back?
May 28, 2010I am working on a having external swfs get loaded into the main swf one by one from an array.I can get the first one to load, but it just keeps on playing the first item in the array over and over, instead of loading the next movie. I have a container on my stage, cleverly named "container" and I am using AS2 and loadMovie.
I am guessing my conditon on my if statement is off, but I am not sure how to tell the onEnterFrame to check the currentframe of the loaded swf and not the container itself. I might be way off, but in my mind I feel like this mostly makes sense, but knowing Flash it is probably not nearly enough coding.I might also add this won't be running on the web, so I don't need to worry about preloading swfs since it will be running directly off a PC onto a screen in our office.Here is my code:
Code:
var myClips:Array = ["movie1.swf", "movie2.swf", "movie3.swf", "white_logo.swf"];
var i:Number = 0;
_root.container.onEnterFrame = function() {[code].....
ActionScript 2.0 :: Playing Movie Clips Back To Back?
Sep 14, 2011I've got the standard scene 1 with three frames on it. the first frame has a movie clip with about a 70 frame timeline. the second frame has a movie clip with about a 20 frame timeline. the third frame is black with a stop action. i'm trying to make a leaderboard banner, and i need each clip to play one after the other.
right now, when ctrl+enter it plays nothing. i actually have to rewind it to have it play the first clip. then it just repeats the first clip and completely skips the second. in the first clip's timeline, I have a parent.gotoAndPlay(2); on the last frame.

SWITCH like below.[code]The problem is the switching is not happening.offset=-1 is supposed to be fast switching. The idea is to make a seamless transition to the next video.if we dont use any transition method or use opts.transition = NetStreamPlayTransitions.RESET;its the same as not using any. It just switches normally.RTMP is supposed to provide a relatively faster transition, i am looking for a seamless option .

Feb 12, 2009I am using the following line of code in my Flash movie: navigateToURL(request,"_blank");However, when I am using Internet Explorer 7 (with tabbed browsing enabled), and this code is called to open a link, the link is opened in a new tab, but IE7 does not switch you to view that tab as you would expect!When I open a link in a normal web page in IE7 (and the link opens in a new tab because _blank was specified in the HTML code for that link), IE7 will switch you to that new tab to see the web page you just opened, so why does it not happen when using Flash?I know that within the settings for IE7, there is a setting that you can tick that says, Always switch to new tabs when they are created, and this solves the problem. However, many web site visitors will not have this ticked.How can I make sure that when a user opens a link in a new tab from my Flash movie, IE7 switches to that tab?I am using ActionScript 3.0 and Flash CS4.

Jul 16, 2009Let me preface this post by saying I have been studying actionscript 3 for 2 months now and I am now at a point where I am looking into how experienced developers code their projects and what tools they are using. Repeatedly, I come across a post or a blog entry where a developer says:
[Code]...
Now here comes my confusion/question(s). When a developer says something like that, are they saying that they ONLY use FDT to create their projects? If so then how are they going about doing it without the use of the Flash IDE? Do they just keep creating external .as classes and then link them all together or what?
In my 2 months of studying, I really feel like I have learned a lot, but I cannot seem to wrap my head around this. I want to break away from the Flash IDE (if at all possible) so that I can go deeper to the code.
