ActionScript 3.0 :: Creating A Enemies Killed Counter?
Mar 20, 2009
Everytime a monster dies, I want the monsters killed dynamic text field to increase the number by 1. I gave it a good shot but it feels like im missing something basic, Im fairly new to this still but picking it up quickly. The following code is inside of a movieClip dealing with the monsters. The second block of code is on my main timeline.

import fl.motion.Animator;
import fl.motion.MotionEvent
var this_xml:XML = <Motion duration="30" xmlns="fl.motion.*" xmlns:geom="flash.geom.*" xmlns:filters="flash.filters.*">

have an odometer type thing, that would go up 9 times a second, and it would go up whether you are on the site or not.So if I started it now, and checked back in on the site in a couple of days it would be at say 300,000, and then I would check back in a couple days later and it might be at 600,000.How would I go about doing this. I have an mc with the actual digit animations..

I have a flash ad on my site that cycles through about about 8-10 products each with their own buy button that adds the item to the shopping cart and takes them to the shopping cart page. What I want to do is create some kind of counter or tracker that keeps track of how many times each product was clicked on. I would prefer an external file to be generated and updated per new click. Is this possible?

I have followed the tutorial on creating a live page counter in flash and somehow run into a problem to which i don't seem to be finding the solution. Perhaps someone here might be able to offer his/her generous help in solving this issue. Problem: The page counter works just fine the first time i load the page. After doing a refresh using the Ctrl & F5 key or just by clicking on the refresh button in my browser the count keeps going up (which as far as i understood from the tutorial is not supposed to happen).
When i do the same kind of refresh on the tutorial page the count stays unchanged though! I also downloaded the finished fla file but for some reason or other flash MX doesn't let me open it, giving me the error: "unexpected file format". Here is my code of the php file that i wrote for the counter.

I'm going to make a counter that will count the correct answers of an exam questions.The counter will collect only the correct answers from each frame.
Here is the first frame:
var counter:Number = 0;
var correctAns:Number;
correctAns = ans1_mc.alpha;
function clicked1(event:MouseEvent):void

i am currently working on a facebook game and i have a problem concerning the integration of a life counter which regenerates over time for a facebook game. The game is a simple Flash/AS3 shooter in which users are competing for the highest score. For monetary reasons every game costs one life and users should only be able to start a new game, if said life counter is >=1. To clear things up, i submitted a link to Popcap's facebook game "Zuma Blitz": ZUMA Blitz I can think of a few ways to do this, but i don't know which is the best/easiest approach.

I want to create some kind of counter that goes up as the buttons in several different scenes are clicked.In the final scene, I want an "if" statement that will use the number in the counter to determine which movie clips are visible and which are not.a.k.a,
If Counter.value == 1
onething.visible = true
else if Counter.value == 2

I'm a seasoned AS3 developer working on a major online project and we've run across a strange visual anomaly which is connected to the movieclip cacheAsBitmap property. When using author-time additive blends (which we use for lighting effects) in a movieclip, turning on the cacheAsBitmap property (without which performance becomes unacceptable in our very detailed art) seems to 'destroy' the additive blend. The art director says that the visual effect produced is as if the blend mode had been set to Normal, which I can confirm--some blends which are yellow turn orange, other 'spotlights' turn from transparent yellow to dark gray.

I wasn't to sure where to post this exactly since I'm not sure if this is a actionscript or some other problem.Ok here it goes. The problem is this if in the embed in the HTML document I put in wmode="transparent" for the flash movie the parameter I am passing to the flash movie never gets passed ... I don't see how wmode can do such a thing but then again this is really my first time working with wmode in general.I tested it numerous times to make sure it really does come down to wmode and it does.Here is the code I currently have I hope there is someone out there that could explain to me why it's doing this.
Code:
<param name="movie" value="header.swf?playMovie=stop" />
<param name=quality value=high />
<embed src="header.swf?playMovie=stop"[code]........
Update: I have isolated the problem to a single browser which is Firefox. I've tested it with IE8, Safari and Chrome and they all work without any issues except for Firefox.

I just started Flash like 2 weeks ago, so im not very good. Im making a game where you pick a character, and shoot pigs. Every pig you shoot adds 500 points to your score. Problem is only one pig works. If i copy and paste that pig and his code (as2), when i shoot one pig both pigs explode, giving me 1000 points. How can i make it so that when i shoot one pig, one pig explodes, and i get 500 points?[code]...

i will explain my problem according the 11th enemy (the last enemy in the level). i past here the answers i gave to people fron other forums..I'm making a platform game, and i have a problem. i am attaching 11 enemys, and my last enemy not appears. the _X of the 11th enemy is 3300.I tried a lot of stuff, and think, I discovered the source of the problem.on my hero class i wrote this:
_root._x -= (_root._x + (_x - 275)) / 5;
and when i changed it to this:
_root._x = -_x;
the last enemy appears!but i want it to be like first one.but it doesnt work.also, i found that if i placed the hero close to the last enemy, the last enemy appears.the _root._x refer to the stage and the _x refer to the hero.i found that if i remove this code(the gravity in the enemy class):
_y += grav;
grav += gravity;
while(ground.hitTest(_x, _y, true)){[code]....

This one concept has been bugging me for days now and I can't seem to solve it. You see, I'm trying to rotate my enemies along an uneven surface. So far, they follow along it perfectly, using my hitTestPoint collision checks.But I don't know how to rotate the collision points and thus rotate the movieclip along the curve so it remains clipped to the ground like in Fancy Pants Adventure 2 or a tanks game.Here is what it looks like right now

i got this flash with duplicated mc's say...enemy1, enemy2, enemy3. now we all know we can do something such as..
if {_root.blah.hitTests(_root.enemy)){_root.enemy.nextFrame();}}
because the enemy is duplicated and its no longer "enemy" but enemy12 or ****.is there any way to ...create multiple enemies and be able to do hitTests against them somehow.Also im not really a fan of attachMC

I've got a function here that spawns an enemy for me and I'm calling it in a loop every few seconds or so that it creates a new enemy every second. This all works great.What I want to do though, is to make the enemies collide with each other. How would I go about doing this? I've tried using hitTestm but it detects that each enemy is hitting itself which is always.I've attached my code.

can anyone give me any idea on how to make random enemies spawn with this code? The export is evil, for the enemies. I've tried a random function but it just doesn't work. Can anyone take this code and make enemies spawn randomly? Like can anyone actually modify it and the put it in their reply?Also, I don't care whether the enemies come from vertical or horizontal directions. The size of the flash is 550 x 400.[code]

I'm trying to make a game in actionscript 3, problem is.. now i have made a few enemies inside movieclips, with there own actions inside the movieclips. and i'm not sure how to call them on to the stage to appear at a certain time and location.[url],...
as you can see.. the enemies appear in a pre-deterined order.. which is like most games, and i wanted to know how should i proceed to do that?
should i make an array of enemies, then store another array with the type of enemy inside, location, and time it appears?
then how do i call them sequentially onto the stage?

I'm making a platform game. The hero can move around, but the enemies are stationary. My problem is that I want the enemies to face the hero. The first enemy behaves correctly, but the subsequent enemies only behave correctly if I kill all the preceding enemies. I have added the hero and the enemies as Objects and put the enemies into an array called enemies. Both the hero and enemy objects have a direction property and an mc property that refers to their movie clips. This for loop gets called every frame.
for(var i:int = 0; i < enemies.length; i++)
{//face hero
if(hero.mc.x < enemies[i].mc.x) enemies[i].direction = -1;
else if(hero.mc.x > enemies[i].mc.x) enemies[i].direction = 1;
enemies[i].mc.scaleX = enemies[i].direction;}

I have ran into another problem, I have written the code for when I click on an enemy, it doesnt add a point to the score and it doesn't remove the enemy, I have a textfield which is called messageDisplay which is linked to the clickEnemy function.Here is the piece of code.
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickEnemy); function clickEnemy(event:MouseEvent):void { if(cursor.hitTestObject(enemyAppear)) { score++ messageDisplay.text = String(score); enemyAppear.parent.removeChild(enemyAppear); } } stage.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickEnemy);

I am trying to implement saving and loading and it went well until I encountered my arrays of items that can be picked up and put in the inventory, as well as enemies that needs to be removed from the stage upon load if they were dead when the game was saved.I have tried adjusting many different attempts which I found on the internet which were related to my issue, but none of them seemed to work. The last was based on creating a new array and adding enemies to it when they die and in some way splice the enemy-array upon load with the dead enemies. But I am not completely sure of how this would work whichi is probably why I didn't manage to make it work. Here is a link to my mainclass AS3 file: [URL]

i have a shooting game that works with some sort of rounds, for instance, this round is gonna show 4 enemies on the screen that the user has to shoot. I show the 4 enemies at a half seconds interval of each one so it doesnt all appear on the same time. Using something like:
enemiesShowTimer = new Timer(0.5 * 1000, 1);
enemiesShowTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, showEnemyAtTime);
enemiesShowTimer.start();
The player has 2 seconds to kill each enemy after they appear, so i also use this:
enemiesCleanTimer = new Timer(roundConfig.getSecondsPerEnemy() * 1000, 1);
enemiesCleanTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, cleanEnemies);
enemiesCleanTimer.start();
The problem is, after the player dies i change scene and if i still have like 3 alive, enemies, the threads will try to run the methods and it will crash. I'm using always the same variable to the start the timer whenever i need it. How can i solve this? Will i have to store each "thread" (timer) on a list and then stop each one separately? Because the way it is, the other threads are in some sort of "limbo" and i cant stop then, just the last one.

My character is spawned in the middle of the screen, and i'm not sure how to make zombies spawn from the left and right side of the screen, and moving towards the middle. My goal is to make the zombies spawn automatically, and the character in the middle is able to shoot them down. I've just started working on AS3, but i know that i'll need to make an array to do this, but not sure how to implement this.
Here is my code:
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.utils.Timer;
