ActionScript 3.0 :: Floating Point Determinism Simulation On All Clients?
Jul 22, 2011
I am working on a Real Time Strategy (RTS) multiplayer game, primarily working from this source: [URL] - which is basically boils down, to running a simultanous 100% deterministic simulation on all clients, and only transmit User input. Which brings me to the Number type, which is a float, which cant be trusted to be the same on all systems, and that could desync the simulation? how to work with Floats in AS3, to make them deterministic/correct errors, or just dont use them at all?

I would like to convert a hexadecimal number to its equivalent double precision floating point number. I couldn't find a function for this. Eg: hex='400a666666666666' floating point=3.3 I need double precision floating point as variable need to be signed with a large range.

I'm dealing with a problem of floating point unprecision.an equation should be giving out 1, but it gives 0.99999999997 or something.I want to turn it into 1. but i dont want to turn it into 1 if it is 0.97. because then obviously it isn't due to floating point unprecision.

in xxxx.mxml (from flex) i have called the remote remote method (of java) the method return type is float
in the xxxx.mxml's remote objects result handler i need get the float values as Numeric String..i tried with string...i did Alert.show to see the value some times i get exact value for eg, 0.5 is the value returning from java methid but here it will show 0.50000454. how get the exact value?

Having a problem with a little animation involving balloons floating in and then floating out again when a condition is met. There are two ways they can float in or out: from left to right, or completely randomly. I actually like it as coming in (left to right) and going out (random) but it's essentially up to the user.
Since I moved my Array sort code into the function that basically deals with telling the balloons to float off though, I've been having problems. Sometimes one or a couple of the balloons will not float off and I'm kind of boggled as to why. Because it works fine IF the Array sort part is outside this function, I'm wondering whether, when the for loop at the bottom starts running, the Array is still being sorted and that's why some balloons get left behind.

I'm trying to make a car simulation. I've a car that moves with keys W,A,S,D and i've a map with size 1200x1400 and screen size 600x700.What i'm trying to do is when car moves any place on the map , screen shall show that area of the map. The area that car located on.

I was wondering if anyone would be able to help me with a problem I am having. I am trying to develop a simulation of a browser in Flash, and need to have a button which allows users to be able to go back to a previous screen (e.g. another .swf file) which means I need the window to be to move between .swf files.
I have tried various methods I have found online, but none seem to be working.

i am currently making a flash "pond" with fishes in it, and i have the ability to add food pellets onto the pond, how should i make the movement of my fishes to the food x,y location ? so it will be smooth , rather than setting the x,y location of my fishes to the x,y location of the food pellets.Also is there a good place to learn how to make my fishes move by its own?Fish class

I'm trying to preload external swf files as needed and show the progress each time a file is being preloaded. It works exactly as intended when I simulate it on my desktop but not at all when uploaded on the web: first of all nothing happens up until 50% of the main movie is already loaded and then when the the attempt is being made to load additional content, some weird number displays (-214...%) instead of the percentage. Take a look: [URL]

currently I'm having some problems with my preloader.I have an as3 class website with the following code:

private function PreloaderStart(e:Event):void {
var bt:int=loaderInfo.bytesTotal;

I painted my stage black and when I simply run my flash file it traced "loaded" so everything is loaded well and it builds the UI. But when I simulate by pressing ctrl+ enter twice I get a white screen and after about 10 sec. (my swf is 1mb and it simulates at 100kbs) it displays the preloader instantly at 100% and loads my UI. So my text doesn't change from 0% -> 100% but I just get 100% when everything is loaded.

I'm trying to make a realistic scrolling terrain for a game I'm making. all of the movement and collision detection is 2d, but I need to make the terrain look more real.
does anyone have an algorithm for simulating a 3d terrain in 2d with the geom.Matrix class?
I know how to implement one, but I'm not sure about the logic for a transformation like this

Try to simulate the OnPress/OnRelease aspect of earlier versions. It is working so far, but when I press the space bar, it goes around once, then stops. If you check the output, it is looping back to the enter aspect, so it looks like it is not working, but it just keeps restarting. I need to make the enter frame event not work since the keypress is already down, and only work on the first time I press it.
var spacebarKeyDown:Boolean = false;
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, moveChar);
function moveChar(event:Event):void{
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, checkKeysDown);
function checkKeysDown(event:KeyboardEvent):void{

I am looking to make a 100% deterministic Flash simulation (for multiplayer RTS game). So far areas that require special attention identified:
ActionScript Code:
Math.random() // obviously, have to use Seeded random
Number // floats are volatile, but that can be overcome by truncating precision
For.. in and For Each loops: // the order of looping through properties on an Object is different every time

So im trying to create a simulation Earths orbit around the Sun. Before i begin coding i need to know earths real orbit lengths.Does anyone know the values of (A,B,X,Y) variables?And once i do get the values, what is the code for moving an object in an ellipse? I know i need to use cos and sin but i dont know the actual formula.
Edit: I found out that [A] is 152,098,232 km and its [B] is 147,098,290 km. I'll scale these down once i find out the [X] and [Y].

I'm creating a simulation in which a large number of objects are added to vectors and then taken away in random order (as more are being added). To remove the objects, I splice the object from the vector it's in, and notify all the other objects that an object ahead of them was removed so they can change their indices accordingly. As far as I know, the objects have no other references (I think), and within the object, I set everything to null. I read somewhere that you can't put "delete this" in the class, so I didn't bother with that. Will this be sufficient to get the object garbage collected, or should I do something else? What are the best ways to get something like this garbage collected?

"averageSum1 = ((Number(out1num1)) + (Number(out2num1)) + (Number(out3num1))) / 3;"
Working perfect ! Now all the final calculations I am trying to translate to Columns chart of expenses and income columns that changes depending on the data. The whole tables system is working. Only with the visual translation to columns I'm not sure how to begin.

At the bottom I have some leaves there. I want to make a couple different size leaves like that and make them go from left to right at random paths and have it loop. I don't know much about actionscript but is there a way to do this without having to make a bunch of guide paths and doing lots of tweens and rotations?
