ActionScript 3.0 :: Hittesting Irregular Shaped Objects?
Dec 16, 2010What I'm trying to do is hittest two irregularly shaped objects using their alphas and not the bounding box.
The code below hittests two objects named target 1 & target 2. This is not my code, but mine looks exactly alike, except target 1 & target 2 are replaced with my MC's. the thing is, I keep getting an error.At every function line, like the "public static function complexHitTestObject I get an error that says: Expecting right paren before left-bracket. I don't know what this error is caused by, because I can't really see why Flash wants another right paren.

Actionscript 3 :: Dispatch MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP When Un-clicking Only Some Objects, Not All Of Them?
Sep 24, 2011What if I want to dispatch MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP when un-clicking only some objects, not all of them? I mean, when I add eventListener that listens for MOUSE_UP, it's dispatched (thought with different targets) every time I un-click anywhere, if you understand what I mean. How can I "fix" it?

Sep 21, 2006I have been trying to deal with sound attachment. Attached is the source file that i am dealing with(I deleted the sound files because the size is too big): Simply, i have to click on the objects first before clicking on the play button. Each objects i clicked represents a different sound and will be stored in the array. So i will be clicking the objects in sequence and when i click on the play button, the music will play. Now comes the problem with my coding, I was unable to let my music coming out one by one at the time in sequence.

Feb 7, 2010When I hit enter to play back my animation, it does not play at the 30 FPS at which I set it to. Instead, it ranges from about 15-20 FPS randomly going up and down throughout the whole animation. When I publish the animation as a .swf, it plays back just fine, at the normal speed. Just wondering why it's doing this, it was fine before.

Apr 5, 2010I have a pair of triangular movieclips that are up against each other real snug and are practically touching.

How do I use onPress to mathematically determine if the cursor is within some boundaries I set?

Dec 10, 2007How can I attachBitmap to an irregular shape?I load a pattern into my movie (pattern.jpg), it is a square image 500x500. I want to draw that image onto an irregular shape. If I do the following it simply shows the large square overtop of my shape. The pattern isn't actually applied to my shape.
Code:

ActionScript 1/2 :: HitTest For Rectangular MC Over Irregular Shape
Jan 15, 2010In my app, a user must drag and release a rectangular mc object (rectx) over an irregular shape within another mc object (irregx). There are 13 rect/irreg pairs. Each obj shares an AS2 file that checks whether rectx is over irregx, and proceeds _only_ if the check is true. The script uses hitTest, on mouse release, to grab the number (x) of the rectx being dragged and checks whether it's over irregx. Right now, the check comes back true when rectx is _anywhere_ inside irregx's bounding box whether it's over the actual image or not.
I've noticed that, when the (unpressed) mouse rolls over any irregx, it's oblivious to irregx's rectangular bounding box. It only reacts when it reaches the edge of the irregular shape inside, toggling from arrow to hand at the image edges. Since the mouse knows where the irregx image boundary is, is there a simple way to tap the mouse's 'eyesight' to verify whether rectx is over the correct irregx shape (meaning not just within the bounding box, within the shape inside it)? This can't be that hard.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Draw A Line That Goes Around An Irregular Shape?
Apr 21, 2011I am trying to draw a line that goes from point A to Point B. Along the way there are objects (of any shape) that force the line to go around them in order to reach point B. It cant go through them. This is like directing someone using a map. You can only draw a line between the blocks / along the streets.
I tried that using collision tests. Fine, I can now find the coordinates at that instance, but I still cant get the line to go around the object before proceeding to point B.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Irregular Semi-Perfect Collision?
Jul 15, 2011I have a bunch of different Movieclips from about 10 different classes moving about the stage. What would be the fastest/most efficient way to detect collisions between two of them? They can overlap each other a bit before the collision is detected, so I thought the easiest way would be to draw a couple rectangles that take up a majority of the object for each class and use hitTestObject to see if any of the invisible rectangles of one instance are colliding with the invisible rectangles of another. Is this a good method? I figured that since a bit of overlapping is okay and actually preferred, that two or three rectangles can easily take up all the room I need for each object.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Using Hittest For A More Irregular Object Than A Circle?
Dec 15, 2004ive recently made a game in which you have to avoid some big evil round planets. i found out the in the making of that that using the function hittest uses square objects. i dident bother much then with it, i just brought out the ol'e algebra book and looked up the distance formual and made my own hittest. now my questyion is is there a more refined way of using hittest for a more irregular object than a circle.
I made somewhat irregualr objects have hittest boxxes so that it was split up into many smaller parts, this gets kinda tedious if its really irregualr or if i need to move it around on the screen btw if anyone wants ta c the game i made [URL] avoid everyting , and shop at the store on the planet , u can go over the big planet in lower left corner but not the ones in orbit a few bugs still like only way to restart is the reload button in browser
Actionscript 3 :: Irregular Shaped Gradiant Contour In Flash?
Jan 30, 2012I am looking for a way to get a similar effect as posted in the Adobe forums The current solution is very brute force using about 60 intermediate shapes gradually going from the outer shape towards the inner shape while slightly changing the color each time.
[Code]...
particular problem, I only wanted to have a shape fade into the color of the background so my solution was to draw the image slightly larger than usual and use Flash's blur filter to create the gradient effect. This is suitable only because my background image is a solid color so this won't work for everybody. This is also a very cpu intensive method but is faster than drawing 60 shapes.

View 6 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Irregular Circle Rotation - Motion Path?
Oct 1, 2009I have a circle: Width 530 and height 800. I want an object to follow this circle using a motion path, but you cant do that in pure actionscript, so I tried rotating the circle with the object attached, but warping the circle at the same time... so width becomes 530 and height becomes 800... but because the circle has rotated at the same time, it looks like it hasn't moved - except for the object attached.
ActionScript Code:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;
var Tween1:Tween = new Tween(circle,"width",None.easeNone,800,530,2,true);
var Tween2:Tween = new Tween(circle,"height",None.easeNone,530,800,2,true);
var myTween:Tween = new Tween(circle,"rotation",None.easeNone,0,180,2,true);
This was the closest... but it still dances around the page before anything happens.... and it isn't reading the sizes properly? 530 isn't 530, but something bigger, and 800 is actually smaller?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Irregular Timing In Movie Clip Loops?
Nov 18, 2009I have several movie clips on the stage each of which are started by buttons. When started, each clip simply plays a sound every two, four or six frames depending on the clip. The regularity of the sound playback is important. The movies start on frame 2 to avoid sound being heard when the swf file is initialized. On the last frame of each clip I have gotoAndPlay(2); to create the loop.
Now what I'm noticing is that when the loops repeat there's a slight stutter and it sounds like the duration of the first frame is extended. I've tried inserting an additional keyframe at the end of the movie but it doesn't resolve the problem. The loops just aren't regular at the loop point.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Make The Irregular Shape Of The Silo The Hit Area?
Jun 18, 2009I'm using actionscript to place a bitmap into an empty movieclip like so:

bitmap_mc.addChild( bitmapPNG );
bitmapPNG is an irregular shaped png of a person, but when I use the movieclip as a button, the hit area is the square shape of the movieclip, not the silo. How do I make the irregular shape of the silo the hit area, and not the surrounding square of the moviclip?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Generate A Random Coordinate Within An Irregular Shaped Movieclip
Feb 3, 2012I have a series of dots on a world map that depending on certain criteria move from one country to another. At the moment they move to a random point around the country's (mc) centre, as calculated by addind half the width to the x or y coordinate etc. This pressents certain problems such as the centre of the US is actually outside the boundries of the countries borders because of Alaska. Other countries such as the UK have dots floating just off the coast. The dots also cluster coveringing each other up.
Is it posible to generate a random x and y coordinate that is inside the boundries of an irregular shaped mc such as a country. I know that Flash must have these values because of colision detection and mouse overs. I just don't know how you go about accessing them.

ActionScript - Display Flash Video In Irregular Quadrilateral Shape
Jun 20, 2011I'm a novice to Flash and I've been trying unsuccessfully to display video with defined irregular dimensions (practically a quadrilateral with various edge size). Would that be possible? I see that there are only several customization options:
1. Positioning in a plane defined by (x,y) that corresponds to the position of the top left corner of the video.
2. Width and height.
If it's not possible in flash, are there any other options with programmable features like that of flash?
