ActionScript 2.0 :: Unstoppable Looping With Variable?

Sep 18, 2008

So I'm trying to clean up some banners I've worked on to put in my portfolio online, and the banner itself sits inside a "shell", so when called for, it loads into an empty mc. This is actually the method I prefer instead of loading it into levels. That's the setup, here's the problem.The banner itself has some repetitive action set up through a variable that if a certain action happens 3x, then move on to the next sequence and play out the rest of the timeline, otherwise go back and do the action until it occurs said 3x.

That part works fine. What happens at the end is that the variable hasn't "cleared", so once it hits the final frame, without doing anything or clicking on the "replay" button, it goes back to the first frame, and as a matter of fact, the action starts playing automatically instead of when the user clicks the "go" button.On an odd occurrence, when this has occurred within the shell of my portfolio link, it causes everything in the shell to "act screwy", playing everything at a faster frame rate, (that may be unrelated), but also making the main flash movie shell start from the very beginning.Like I said, I worked on this project, though I didn't do all the coding, so the part with the variable and how it affects the rest of the playback I can't control, nor know the first thing of how to fix it, (though I've tried).

Flash Looping Causing Variable To Add Values Constantly

Jan 15, 2011

Flash keeps looping which is causing certain variables to add values constantly. E.g.
if (userWord.text == word){
score = score + 1;
trace(score);
}
That will constantly add one to "score" when a certain word is typed into a text box. How do I add one to "score" without stopping the application or playing it once?

Separating Looping Anims From Non-looping?

Feb 2, 2010

The issue I am running across is this: I encoded and embedded a movie clip to act as the background. There are other animations that can and will loop, as the movie resets itself. But there are some elements that I only want to run once and not repeat once the embedded movie loops (link introductions, where objects fly in and transition into the button). How can I set the one time animations to fire just once, while keeping the embedded animation on a loop?

f you know PHP...then you know that you can create a string variable...and then use the value of that variable to declare another variable. like this:

PHP Code:

<?php$foo = "haha";$i{$foo} = "success";print $i{haha};?>

and it would display "success"...or like this:

PHP Code:

<?php$foo = "haha";$$foo = "success";print $haha;?>

I'm a newbie at Flash...and have a main movie that I would like to load external movies into..for ease of modification of the different areas vice having one large swf.I'm using the loadMovieNum command to load the external swf's just fine. When I play the external swf's by themselves...they play once and stop. When they are loaded into the main movie...they loop.I've placed a "stop();" command at both the frame in the main movie...and also on the line directly after the loadMovideNum line.

AS2 Looping Through To See What MC Clicked?

Oct 19, 2009

I have many movieclips on stage, let's say 100.Rather than setting onRelease or OnPress function for each one, is there any way of looping through all the movie clips (maybe if they were called MC1 MC2 MC3 MC4 etc etc), using an array, to see which one was pressed and then say what should happen if so and so MC was pressed.

Depending on which MC is pressed a variable will be a different number... e.g. MC1 pressed means variableA = 1, MC1 pressed means variableA = 2, MC1 pressed means variableA = 3 etc

I just thought there would be a more intelligent solution than writing out this 100's of times: MC[numberOfMC].onPress = function() { do something };

CS3 Looping A Flash Banner

Jul 1, 2010

I'm trying to loop a Flash Banner ad. I added the code to the first and last frames on a separate action layer on the main timeline, but it's not working.

I'm using actionscript 2.0/CS4.

I have a stop action on the last frame of the last text movieclip that plays. And it seems to get hung up here. When I remove the stop action it just loops that movieclip and not the whole animation.

This is the code I'm using in the first frame of the main timeline.

> var counter:Number = 0

And this is the code I'm using in the last frame of the main timeline:

> // if its being used on the last frame use a stop(); action on the top line
> if (counter < 3) {
>counter++
> gotoAndPlay(1)

Get Flash To Stop Looping?

Jun 5, 2009

I'm brand new to flash so cut me a little slack. I'm in the middle of building a website in Flash CS4 in Action Script 3.0 and (according my the tutorial I'm using) I need to access the "parameters" panel. The problem is I don't see it anywhere. I see "properties" and "filters" but to parameters. I've cycled through all the workspace presets but with no luck. How can I bring it up?? Also, even though I used the "stop();" code in the beginning of my actions frame my movie just keeps looping when I test it.
