Sep 23, 2009Ok, I've been climbing the walls trying to figure this out, looked everywhere for an answer, learned a few bits and pieces along the way, but still can't do it.I've made my Class which is a little movieclip called 'block', it's fine and does what I tell it to do ie. I can reposition itstretch itotate it and stuff.The problem is.. I want to make more of them and reference them individualy so I can change the properties of them individualy ie, the x and y values etc.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamically Naming/referring To Movieclips?
Feb 15, 2010I am going to have a button that when you click on it it creates a movieclip and adds a certain child to it (In this case, its linkage is set as "Rifle"). Each time you click on the button I need to give the new movieclip a different instance name then the last, such as "Riflemen1", "RifleMen2" etc.. I will need to be able to refer to each movieclip seperatly in my code, such as for example:
You spawn three Riflemen.. You click on one of them, which selects it, you then click on an "Attack" button which makes only him start firing (in my case gotoAndStop(2)), you then decide you want the third one to attack and so forth..

ActionScript 3.0 :: Make Dynamically Named Functions?
Apr 13, 2011So I've been trying to make dynamically named functions, and while it works, I've run into a couple of problems.

var num:Number = 3

If I had something like that ^ what could I add to func to distinguish between whether it is being called by lolz0, lolz1, or lolz2? I was thinking whether there was something like .name I could use, but I couldn't come up with anything.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Loading Dynamically Via MCs And Functions And Whatnots?
Mar 20, 2007So I'm finally getting to the point where my sites are just one frame with everything loading dynamically via MCs and functions and whatnots.But I'm having a problem: how does one keep track of what "page" we're supposed to be at?
My specific dilemma: I have an mc called "textframe". I have a function that does some nifty dropshadow knockout effect on that frame, so I can't display any content in it, so I thought I should use attachMovie to load different elements from the library depending on which button has been pressed. But I can't seem to find a flexible method to track which button was pressed and pass that on to which element should be loaded.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Load Variable Data From An External XML File And Dynamically Displays The Item Names In A Menu - Arrays - Functions
May 18, 2005I have been working on a Flash movie that loads variable data from an external XML file and dynamically displays the item names in a menu which may then be clicked to display other dynamically-loaded content that corresponds to the menu item that was clicked. I have now come to a standstill in the project as there is something I'd like to achieve but simply cannot work out how. This is my first attempt at working with XML in Flash and one of my early attempts at using variables. What I'm trying to achieve is; once the user has viewed the item's content, they can simply click "next" and "previous" buttons to display all of the content for the next or previous items in the XML document.
I know it probably sounds simple and I'm sure some of you could achieve this in 5 minutes (!) but I can't get my head around some of the coding. I assume previousSibling and nextSibling would come into play here as well as some sort of functions which access arrays of data for the previous and next items, but I'm just not sure how to correctly put these things to use. Rather than post my code and example images of the stage up here on the forums, I've created an html page here: [URL]

ActionScript 3.0 :: Import Vs Include - Basic Functions To Be In BasicFunctions.as And The Make A Library For More Specific Functions

I want all the basic functions to be in BasicFunctions.as and the make a library for more specific functions. I find that a lot of people use the import statement but I cant get that to work with a simple Hello World trace, yet the include statement works fine (see attached). I understand that import/include work differently, but which is the better method? If import, then is that heavier to work with. Any rate, what's the best way to organise code when it gets to the 1000+ lines?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Mimicing The Until Functions - Load Of Global Functions In One File?
Nov 4, 2009I'm trying to find a way to have global functions in my as project, similar to how flash does with stuff like the util functions (describeType()...), where you can just call the function wherever you need it. For example:
[Code]...
So when I call Test(), it prints out "hello world" fine. My problem comes in that I can't change the name of the Test function, and I can't add any other functions without compiler errors. Is it possible to have a load of global functions in one file, or do I have to split them up into separate files like in the example? Also, I know that I can make a Global class and call static functions like Code: Global.doSomething() but I'd like to know if there's a way to do it as flash does it (describeType(), getDefinitionByName(), etc), or rather, how does flash do it?
