ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash - Executing Other Class File From Within A Function?
Mar 11, 2011
I'm making a game and the main functions are close to finishing. But I'm having problems with my start screen. I'm working entirely in Flash Builder.My users should be able to click a button to start the game. Right now I don't have a functioning start screen yet, but initially the game started immediately with Game.as. But I now decided I want a start screen. So I made a new class file with the graphics and buttons for the start screen in the constructor function, and I added a Mouse click event listener to the button.The game itself is in Game.as, that runs perfectly.In the function for the mouse click event I added:
Code:
removeChild(startscherm);
var startgame:Game = new Game;

I'm making this game with Adobe Flash and I have this level where you need to stop a bomb from exploding, but when you stopped it and go to the next frame the bomb is still running and you still go to the game over screen when the countdown reaches 0. For the countdown I use the following ActionScript:
[Code]...
(Frame 4 is my game over screen) I also add with the dynamic text the word ''count'' next to Var: So is there a way to make it stop running on the next frame? Also am I willing to use a different ActionScript for a countdown if somebody knows a better one.

I have this movieClip "Container" and within it on two different frames I have two movieClip/buttons, "pause_btn" and "play_btn", respectively. I would like to call a function on the main timeline on frame two of "Container" where "play_btn" is located.
I think I'm getting close but really have no idea. I know about the visible property and have been considering that, but isn't there a way to call a parent function from within a child movie clip? The code looks like this.

This problem is probably very simple to solve but it is not clear to me. It may simply be that I am doing something incorrectly. I have studied OOP and AS3 for quite a few hours so I am familiar with the concepts but not the flow. This is a project that I put together in order to reinforce what I have been studying.The goal here is to load an instance of a pre-created movieclip to the stage from the library then execute a positioning function in the FLA's timeframe ActionScript and execute a function from within the AS files's class ActionScript to both a resize the movieclip and output a trace.I have two files:smileface.flasmileface.as

I'm doing a AS3 project in Eclipse and trace alot of values. I though it would be nice to have a toString() function in every class, at the bottom of each class as the last function, but i dont want to do this by hand for 500+ files. Is there a quick and good way of doing this automated?

Here's a damn useful snippet:
ActionScript Code:
/**
* Use in place of trace(). Calling function will be logged automatically.
* */
[Code]....
Put that code in a utility class, and then from any function or method in your app, call myClass.reportStatus("Something happened"); and you will be rewarded with something like this:
060510 15:48:11com.foo.commands:oSomethingCommand/execute()Something happened

I have a function and a movieclip prototype. When the prototype applies an onEnterFrame to an mc, it repeatedly calls the function (hitTests for all other mcs). Besides this, it also eases the mc to a new point. However, when the mc have reached this point, the function handling the hitTests stops being called
PHP Code:
//Prototype....MovieClip.prototype.moveSprite function(speed, spriteType) // Generate random coordinates var tarX = Math.round(Math.random()*(400-

A function has to "run"(execute) inside the onEnterFrame event method but the function does not seem to run when called.
Example:
_root.onEnterFrame()=function(){
if(something==true){
performFunction();

how could I find out how long is some function executing?is this number, however small, always consistent for the same function or there may be differences (taking in consideration that only one function is running at each moment)?

The function should trace "carn" over and over and over, but instead, it traces "carn" over and over until the prototype picks a new point to ease to.

I'm trying to execute a fucntion by calling it through an event listener I can't call it directly seems to be out of scope or un intialized or something. I've had luck calling variables in this manner but have never tried to call a function. Can I do it through the event?
PHP Code:
e.currentTarget.parent.timer.timekeeper.stopTicking();

I have a headerbar.mxml that is displayed when user swipes_down in my app. The headerbar.mxml contains a button component I want to run an erase() in the main application window. The main application is a drawing app that contains an erase(). I just don't know how to call a function from another mxml view file. I thought it would be something like
click="{mainwindow.drawPanel.erase()}";
EDIT:
protected function onColorChange(event:List):void{

I have a main.mxml, child.mxml and headermenu.mxml. I click a button on the headermenu that dispatches an event up to the main.mxml which then executes a method in child.mxml. I know this works because I put an AlertDialog in the function I'm calling inside of the child.mxml. The child.mxml contains a drawingArea object that has an erase(). When I call this directly from child.xml it executes, however if I put drawingArea.erase() inside of the function being called by child's parent (main.mxml) nothing happens.[code]...

I set a function for
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
code;
}
but later I want this onEnterFrame to stop functioning to conserve on processor resources. setInterval isn't too good of an option from the way I have things set up, so right now I just set it to a new function with a trace action which overwrites the old one.Is there a command to simply just clear or break the function from executing?

(Using Flash Pro 8). Currently, I just need to execute a simple show/hide function that is controlled with a key. Currently, I have a circle movieclip with this coding attached to it:
Actionscript Code:
onClipEvent(keyDown){ if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) _root.circle._visible = true;}onClipEvent(keyDown){ if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) _root.circle._visible = false;}
And on the first frame of the timeline, I have this code ( so that it is visible = false to begin with ):
Actionscript Code:
_root.circle._visible = false;
Now, my problem is that when pressing the RIGHT key on the keyboard, it reveals the circle, but when it is pressed again, I want it to hide the circle again. Obviously there's a conflict between false and visible, but I don't yet know how to tell flash to make the distinction that the RIGHT key has already been hit once. Is there some kind of 'listener' or something?

I have a pause function that fires when the first frame of my swf loads.
PHP Code:
Welcome transition
function pauseMC(sec) {
var i = sec - 1;
var MyPause = setInterval(function () {
if (i == 0) {
clearInterval(MyPause);
[Code] .....
However, if the user navigates away from this "Welcome" section, the actions following the "pause" still fire. I need to find a way to stop the pause function prior to the actions executing. Below is the function used to trigger the navigation events and where I should be executing the action to stop by pauseMC.
PHP Code:
function moveLeft () {
var t = this;
this.opened = true;
//this._x = _root.navWidth * this.index;

I have a function which contains some code and about half way through calls another function. Only problem is it stops the main function from running so the code following it snt executed. What I want to know is is there anyway to go back into the original function at the point at where I left and carry on executing? I've thought of one solution but its a bit long winded and I just wanted to know if there was a quick and easy method, before anyone asks the code needs to be in its current order.

I'm attempting to bring a swf file down to Firefox to cache but not actually execute. The swf comes from a different domain.
The following approach works in Chrome but not Firefox:
new Image().src = "www.other.com/foo.swf";
Firefox uses a separate cache for images.
This approach works in IE, but not Firefox:
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" data="www.other.com/foo.swf" declare="1"></object>
The "declare" tells the browser to cache but not execute it. However, Firefox complains that the request is cross-domain.
