I am working on a project and I cannot get my final code to work correctly. Theoretically, each answer "yes" or "no" gets a score, then those scores are added to take the user to one of three possible outcome pages.[code]
View 3 RepliesI have a score that goes up by 10 every time you press this button, its var "score". I have a simple countdown timer. caller, its var "timer". When the game ends it goes to the next frame which says game end. I can get the score to show but I want the time left to be added to this.
I have tired:
onEnterFrame (){
score = Number(score) + timer;
}
Nothing seems to work. Do I even actually use onEnterFrame ?
I'm keeping score in a game. I have a text field with an instance name "finalScore". The score is a Number.
Code:
trace ("score = "+score);
finalScore.text = String(score);
trace ("finalScore = "+finalScore);
The output looks like this:
score = 10
finalScore = [object TextField]
The text field comes up with "1" not 10.
i have some variables
total_score = score-missed*2
final_score = total_score
the first variable works perfectly and the secon does too but i want to make final score get the total_score and divide it by 10 like final_score = total_score / 10 but it dont works so how do i fix it?
i have a mc called energybarmc, i have radomly multiplying and falling lightning called Lighten which has children and is getting collected by the character mcMilan when he hits it i wanted the energy bar level to increase by 10 pixels a small x and y co ordinate
this is located after a timerevent function:
if (Lighten.hitTestObject(mcMilan.hit))
{
trace("hit");
removeChild();
.....
how do i implement the score code after the remove child? or do i put it before?
I'm trying to make an interactive quiz with a few key points:each answer has to add to a score, and the score has to be displayed at the end of the quiz in a dynamic text box.I've coded all the buttons and finished the animations, but I still need to set it up so each correct answer gives the player a point. How would I go about doing this, plus displaying it at the end? I might feel ambitious and try to have two different animations at the end, a "good" ending and a "bad" ending. How do I get the animation to go to a specific frame depending on the players score, depeding if it is above or below a certain number?
View 1 RepliesIm designing my own game in flash, iv set up a score text box and it works fine. Except i just cant seem to get it to gotoandplay another frame,scene, when it hits a certain score??
View 4 Repliesi am building a shooting game and i was wondering if it is possible to have the movie go to frame 3 if the score = 500.I.E Score is displayed in a dynamic text box and everytime the enemy is hit the:
_root.score +=50
=============
on the first frame of the film i have the code
if (_root.score == 500) {
gotoAndPlay(3);
}
I have a result screen that shows bonus points and such. I want each text field to increment one after another and also have it increment by a certain amount each frame. Result Screen pops up. First is the player score check the player score, is it more than the score we want to display if the player score is greater than the player display score by 100 increase the player display score by 100 if the player score is greater than the player display score by 10 increase the player display score by 10 else increase the player display score by 1 when finished move to the next score...and so on. I have thought of using timers to move from one score to the next, but not being in an Event.ENTER_FRAME it only does one if then moves to the next one.
Also the if statement for incrementing the score looks ridiculous and I'm thinking there has to be a better way to do it. I was thinking of making it a separate function but then I wouldn't know what to return, or how to return it so it looks like its increasing and not just showing the total number instantly. I'll try to expand on it a little more.
How do I add a label to a button? Using a component button, in CS3 it seemed quite straightforward however CS4 has me stumped. I am trying to make up a website with a row of buttons across the top to appear in all the pages. I have a controling page names portfolio.fla and several other pages to link in with this one. I have placed a button in the library from the components tab in the windows tab. Then dragged out 5 buttons and have them all working properly and linking up to the other pages, but when I went to place labels on them found myself having problems. Clearly not a good day for me.
View 5 RepliesHaving got my AS to work nicely - I was happy as the everything fitted into to place - so I moved onto adding a few more buttons placed in some new MCs. problem: When I press buttons that having nothing to do with the main script a dynamic border ,that changes size to reveal a new picture when it is loaded after a preload, decides to do a loop. Even the main picture flickers as if it has also been reloaded even though that script is executed by a button with an instance name.
The border MC uses a onClipEvent (enterframe) command to initiate the script - does this mean it reponds everytime any MC has something happen to it? If so, can I somehow write the AS so that the onClipEvent refers to the event of a specific MC so it does not respond to all MC events?
Ive been making some advanced buttons with some trendy transitions using Lostinbeta's onEnterFrame/ hitTest method below:
Code:
//this script is on my mc (which is the button)
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
if (this.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, true)){

My flash files is designed like this:
Layer 1 Pages with labels and actionscript for that specific layer (stop, gotoandplay, and Uiloader source)
Layer 2 is a Movieclip with a navbar
Layer 3 Dropdown menu where buttons are placed inside a movieclip
Layer 4 Actionscript
My problem is finding the correct way to link from a button inside a movieclip to a label inside another movieclip.
I have three links
Link1, Link 3, and Link 4
The current code I am using is
import flash.net.navigateToURL;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
var link_four:link4;

I am trying to add actions to my buttons i want the user to be sent to another page when the button is clicked. The action i have attached to the button is
on (release) {getURL(www.pharmeng.ie,_self);
}

I am working on the tutorial [URL]
The tutorial uses a multiline textbox to display data from MySQL but I wanted to know how I would code if I used a SINGLE LINE textbox and added a BACK AND NEXT BUTTONS to show one record at a time.
I saw on a website once (I wish I could remember which site it was), flash buttons that were creatively animated. The button would appear just as text, but when you hovered over it, an image would rise from behind it, then, when you moused off, the image would go back down. It did this for each of the buttons and I cannot figure out how to get that to work, especially since in CS4 with AS3 you cannot use AS on a button. It's also really difficult to add a motion preset to a button....

I have an MC that has a graphic. I have faked buttons for just the over state, so it shows a border around a portion of the graphic. That works fine until I added this to the MC:
this.onPress = function(){ if (this._currentframe != 1) {
rewind = true;
}}
The onPress function does what it should do, but the buttons no longer show their over state when I hover over them.
I followed a tutorial to build a click-thru photo gallery that is linked to an XML file. The tutorial set up the navigation as being controlled by clicking the images, but I wanted to add some more obvious navigation prompts for viewers on my website. The "next" button was easy to do as I just copied the actions for clicking the images on the main section of the stage, but when it came to building the "previous" button, the code was not working. I want the button to take the audience to the image before the image they are on when clicked.
I've pasted what I have below and highlighted the sections that I have altered. If you could please tell me what I'm doing wrong, that would be great.

In CS5, I want to create a series of buttons that when clicked will linked to other frames in the same timeline. So one button will link to frame 5, one will link to frame 10, one will link to 15, etc. All the buttons will appear across the top of the stage on a layer, and I want them to appear on all of the frames so the user can click back-and-forth to the different frames/screens.
1. Is the best way to do this to just add the buttons to frame 1 and add a keyframe to the last frame in the timeline, frame 15, so they are copied to all the frames in between?

View 1 RepliesAdding 2 numbers having 3 textfields and a button, I can do. The first textfield for input one, the second one for input two and the third one for output (result). The button triggering the operation. [URL]. How can I add 2 numbers only with one textfield( result) and 4 buttons. One button for number 1, another one for number 2, another one for the operator +, and finally another one for the sign =.

adding navigation buttons to my swf slideshow. I have had many views but no comments.
View 3 Repliesim having trouble adding my button images that are in my library to an array.
I have tried the obvious var array:Array = [pluto_btn, mercury_btn, jupter_btn]; but flash isn't adding the buttons to the array.
I am currently having a problem adding the Tell Target action to a button. The following is the hierarchy of my timeline:
-Root
---Movie Clip (Instance Name="FadeIn")
------Button (Instance Name="Button")
----------Movie Clip (Instance Name="About")
The Movie Clip I'm trying to control is "About". This MC is also placed within the 'Over' state of "Button". I keep receiving the Target Not Found error in Base="_level0.FadeIn".
i want the user to click on the relevent button, and this will add an accented-character (such as "�" to the textbox they are typing in.here is my code so far:
[AS]on(release){
textbox_cont = _root.inputtext.inputtext.text;
accent = "u00E0";
output = "";
[code]....
1: when the user clicks this button, the accent is added to the input textbox, but they have to click on the textbox again before they can start typing.How can i set it so they can continue typing straight away?
2: - more importantly my rather basic code only adds a character to the end of the textbox-contents. At present, if a user wants to edit text they have typed, they cannot insert accents.How can i set it to add the character where the user has placed the (flashing) cursor?

Im stuck with adding roleovers to my movie clip buttons. At the moemnt my button code is set so that once clicked it stays on a framewhich is another colour, it then stays that colour until another button is clicked. This works fine, but now I need to ad a rolover to each button that is the same colour as the button once clicked - my code goes like this
var buttons_array:Array=new Array(home_btn,showcase_btn,aboutus_btn,approach_btn,contact_btn);
for(var i:int=0;i<buttons_array.length;i++){ buttons_array[i].mouseChildren=false; buttons_array[i].buttonMode=true;
