The image describes my issue, I am trying to find the vector of the question mark, which should describe the objects new vector for velocity.
vector (7,2) is my objects current velocity.
If I know the new angle, how can I get the new vector?
I have a situation where you have an object, lets say a dog. The artwork of the dog is black in color. In this case i know that the default color of the dog vector is 0x000000. However, lets say i have 30 different dogs of varying color. You can change the color of the dog at runtime, but when you reset, id like to return to the default color. Does anyone know how to do this or can hit me with a search term? Note that what i am after is finding the initial default color value and not the implementation as i can work it out for myself.
View 1 RepliesI got a working broad phase and collision detection is fast enough.Now my collision response is working, but slow. I have trace(using getTimer()) through the whole resolving method, and I found the slow spot is where I get the collision point and normal vector.
Right now, I test each point on each shape against each line on the other shape. This works nice on triangles, but other shapes, it much to slow.I would think that using SAT(seperating axis therom) would have a way to get this when checking collisions, but I cant seem to get it.I need a fast way to get the collision point and normal vector.(Right now, it takes about 3 milliseconds per collison on a rectangle with 4 points and 4 lines)
I'm getting
ActionScript Code:

which surprises me as ConfigurationVO inherits from NodeVO.Is the compiler really not able to figure out that a Vector of a superclass should be able to hold a reference to a Vector of a subclass?

I am currently being confused by the Vector class.I wrote a beautiful XML to TypedClass parser. Works beautifully and without fault. UNTIL a co-worker noticed we got a Conversion Error for Vector.<Number> to Vector.<*>.
Every Vector I've ever tested all extend Vector.<*>.
Vector.<Sprite>, Vector.<String>, Vector.<Point>, Vector.<Boolean>, Vector.<TextField>, Vector.<CustomObject>, etc etc etc. ALL of them.
<type name="__AS3__.vec::Vector.<String>" base="__AS3__.vec::Vector.<*>" isDynamic="true" isFinal="false" isStatic="false">
<extendsClass type="__AS3__.vec::Vector.<*>"/>
[code]...
But then when I use describeType on Vector.<Number>, Vector.<uint> and Vector.<int>.
<type name="__AS3__.vec::Vector.<Number>" base="Object" isDynamic="true" isFinal="true" isStatic="false">
<extendsClass type="Object"/>
<constructor>
[code]....
Now I have accounted for these 3 vectors individually as even uint and int does not extend Vector.<Number> as I would have expected.
And my parsing function works for all types correctly again. But my confusion comes as to WHY this is the case, and why I couldn't find any documentation on the subject.
I have an array that basically calls out numbers for a gotoAndStop action. We have external swfs that get loaded in. Each slide is its own frame in the external swf and they want the flexibility to remove slides at the last minute so my array looks like this:
Code:
var myDocs:Array = ["1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7", "8", "9", "10", "11", "12", "13", "14", "15", "16", "17", "18", "19", "20", "21", "22"];
var i:Number = 0;
There are going to be a lot of sections with a varied number of slides and I am looking for a simple code I can attach to the navigation that basically says:
Code:
on (release) {
if (you have not reached the end of the array);{
++i;
gotoAndStop(myDocs[i]);}
}
Is there a code out there that doesn't require you to put specific number values in? like "if (i<22)"?
On the site we need to implement a mark on the photograph. By type as in facebook. It is desirable but not necessary that the selection of the object was not the rectangle, and polygon. There is a ready-realization? It does not matter what technology to use php, flash, and other, exotic but not necessary:)

How do we make an entire block of code (maybe 10 lines) as comment.

rather than redirecting, is there any better way to dealing with this issue? maybe "better way" is a poor choice of words. is there a way to refactor this code without using a forwarding function or having to force the user to include the event parameter.

I have had a website that has been up and successfully running for about a year now. Admittedly, it's a little buggy here and there, however - I have not had too many issues with it to date. Recently, however, I updated the main / root .swf slightly - just changed some copy, and added a slide or two throughout. When visiting the site, this main .swf dynamically loads any content .swfs required - the html, and these .swfs were not touched.
Upon uploading the new main .swf only - everything works fun, until it loads one of the content .swfs - this always loads in the top left of the browser, rather than the center top of the browser.

I am using a php mp3 handler script that I use as a parameter,but it seems to mess everything up just because there is a question mark after .php for my get variables. If I remove the question mark (mp3_handler.php?), the player appears, but with the question mark, it shows up as a text box. The first player works fine. The second just appears as a textbox in IE.The second however works in every other browser!!!
UPDATE: IT SEEMS TO BE THE second QUESTION MARK, but I do not see a way around this.. Oddly enough, the first question mark does not make a difference

View 1 RepliesI have built a pre-loader from tutorials that seems to work well except that you can't see it until it hits about 8o% loaded.
this is the code for frame 1 of my movie. (loading is a text box that shows the percentage as it loads)

why the screen stays blank up until until that 8o% mark when it seems like the whole frame(preloader) loads?

I've got a SWF that calls up external swfs via XML. Users are able to navigate to each external swf using a next button. When a user views the external swf, I need to mark it as 'viewed'. This way, if the user leaves the site prior to seeing all swfs, they can come back and start where they left off and view only the swfs they haven't seen.
What is the best method for setting this up? Array? Somehow parsing the XML file?
I'm making a blog/journal in flash that I will manually update, and there will be a list of entries in a menu. I would like the newer entries tinted red so they are obviously new at a glance. I would like them to stay red for a week, then automatically remove the tint.
So I'm guessing that when I manually update the entry, I could just plug in the current date into a field in the AS, and it would use the computers clock to find out if a week had passed or not.
