ActionScript 3.0 :: Declare A Point When Declaring An Array?
Feb 18, 2012
I'm declaring an array like this:
data[0] = [200, 10, 0, 32, -20, 0.25, 0.154, 0.5, 10, 0.95, 1, 20, 90, 0.95, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0];
it's an array within an array, as you can see. However the way things are laid out here isn't as efficient or manageable as i'd like.The second two values, 10 and 0, are actually linked coordinates. When i'm using them, i extract them and use them as X and Y for a point.
What i'm thinking is that this extra step seems like an unnecessary annoyance, and bloats my code.It would be best to simply put a point type variable into tjhe array in the first place. But can i do that? what would be the correct syntax?

flash knows this is a 2d array, correct? Code: var arr:Array= new Array([1,0,6],[4,3,7]); i see it treats it as one. My question, is there any difference to declare each array as such, before pushing them to the main array? trace(arr[0]);// i know it traces the arrays contents, but if it could, would it tell me this is data type Array , exactly the same as if i had declared it?

why can't i get a return value from this function because i need those values to reset a image to it's previous position.
PHP Code:
Cam.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER,animIn);
trace(animIn); // here is where i got a problrm
function animIn(evtObj:MouseEvent):Array {[code].......
why i can't do it like that what i mean is why i can't declare this function that way because when i do the fallowing error occur:Ereor #1063

Here is what I'm trying to do. I have some TextArea objects inside a HGroup, created in the mxml part. I want them to have an id of an element of a bidimensional Array, a matrix. I'm having problems declaring the TextArea objects as Array components. I've tried a lot of formats and google it, but I found nothing relevant.

Instead of this code:
var bomb1:Boolean = false;
var bomb2:Boolean = false;
var bomb3:Boolean = false;
Would it be possible to use an array like this? var bomb:Array = [false,false,false]; Or would it be better in another way? Isn't it necessary to declare the variable/array to be boolean or number if it would be that type in the index? Could I also use an array for the movieclips like bomb[0].visible = true; ? But how di I declare that array?

I have been using FLASH for years and I make websites with it as my regular job but I have never had to deal with arrays so never learned them. I really want to, I saw Kirupa's tutorial but I still don't understand what they are for. Could someone give me some examples as to their usage? Why do I need an array? What can I do with them? I am usually creative with my FLASH techniques and I know arrays are useful but I am like a monkey with a revolver...I know they have power, but what are they for?

I have a source array with simple Point instances in them (just an object with x and y properties). I want to have a resulting array with the cumulative result of calling Point.add() to each of the instances. (e.g. the resulting point object is a result of adding the current point to the total of the points before it in the source array.) is this possible to dynamically do this?

It's been a long time since I've done any work with actionscript, and alas I've forgotten nearly everything. I've tried to look for a tutorial that would explain basic animation with actionscript, but the one that I found on Kirupa was no longer there.
Basically I'd like to do this:On the stage I have a movieclip and I'd like the movieclip to move along the x-axis to a certain point and then back to the starting point again. The moving speed of the movieclip should also be adjustable.

I'm creating a game in flash for a university project, and learning actionscript and programming as I go. I'm very much still at a beginner level - at the moment al I have is some actionscript for drawing rectangles and moving them about the screen. This is what I'm having trouble with at the moment: I have a class called 'Creature', and I want instances of it to interact with each other. I want them to do something when they come within a certain distance of another instance. And I want them to be able to pick a random other instance to get the location of, in order to do something with that information.
What I think I need is: A function for telling the distance between two (x,y) points.
A way of referencing the nearest other instance of the class. And a way of randomly selecting from all of the instances of the class.

How to convert 3d point to 2d point? I've found next formula in Internet(camera is situated in origin)
[Code]....
But these formulae give me strange result when z are less than zero(z<0) I need build line from A(100,100,100) to B (100,100;-100) As you can see these equations give really strange result when I try to convert B point in 2D dimension

i have the follow issue :
I have a point which is setted at the border on a component, with changed transform point to the center of a component in order to match the component rotation.
the important part is when i try to get the point XY after rotation - they remains the same as before rotation.
how to get XY, after rotation ( changeing point.rotation property to specific degrees of rotaion )

I am using AS2 with Flash 8 Professional So, my problem is that I currently have a man in the middle of the screen, who shoots a line towards the mouse when I click. However, when I use hitTest to see if the line collides with another object, Flash recognizes the line as a large box if it is diagonal, so the hitTest isn't very accurate. The line only satys there for one frame, so I can't have the usual moving-bullet-style. I am either looking for a way to create an imaginary line with AS from the starting point to the mouse and beyond, and tell whether or not this line intersects with an object... or some other way that I haven't thought of to fix my problem. Keep in mind that the line rotates from a center point towards anywhere around it for 360 degrees.

I know some basic trig. but how do i find an angle from an anchor point and a moving point?
adjecent = _root.anchor._x-_root._xmouse;
opposite = _root.anchor._y-_root._ymouse;
hypotenuse = ((adjacent ^ 2)+(opposite ^ 2)) ^ 0.5;

I am trying to develop a Quadratic Bezier Curve using the graphics.curveTo() method. Initially when i drag mouse to draw the shape, i use start point and end point of mouse to draw the curve line. I assume control point at any position below or up to the line. An draw the curve using this control point. some what like:-
[Code]...
Now i add a tip on this curve segment. I have x and y position of tip. I want to change the curve segment by dragging tip. but now i don't have the exact control point according to tip position. If i use tip coordinate as control point it reduce the height of curve and now tip does not lie on the curve segment. What i have to do is calculate the exact control point on the basis of tip coordinate. But i failed to get this point.

I'm trying to figure out how to find a point relative to the center of an object, modified by its rotation. For example, in the attached swf, I've been messing around trying to draw trails to a bitmap, coming out of the thrusters. I didn't have a problem at first, but as the ship rotated, the lines that were being drawn wouldn't remain relative.
http:[url]....
I'm sure this is because I have no idea what I'm doing, and I've just been sort of idioting my way through it. That aside, is there an easy way to find the point I'm looking for? For instance, say I want a point at Y -14 of my ship, but I want that to remain relative to the ship as it rotates.

From the Robert Penner code given in this tutorial: [URL] i was wondering why controlx and controly has to be so complicated. I've tried changing it to just _root._xmouse but it messes up. I don't get this, shouldn't the curve point be the same point as the mouse?
