ActionScript 3.0 :: Framerate Keeps Constantly Dropping?
Nov 25, 2009
There's this flash web page Im developing. All movement is 90% written in code (as oppose to it being created via designer mode). And for some reason the frame rate of page in browser just keeps dropping. Can someone tell me what that reason could be?I am aware of the fact that framerate does change from time to time but I think that after a while it should climb back up. But in my case it just keeps dropping (by the 9000. frame its like 2 fps) and there isnt memory leak cos used memory amout by browser stays the same

I have a code here that drops a first row then drops a second row down right after. First row drops right away and second row is on a timer.
// Bring in first row
var blueY:Tween = new Tween(blue, "y", Bounce.easeOut, -295, -49, 2, true);
var pinkertonY:Tween = new Tween(pinkerton, "y", Bounce.easeOut, -295, -49, 2, true);
[Code]....
How would I drop each cover individually at random between two set numbers? I assume I would have to apply a separate timer for each one then somehow make the time at which it drops random between two numbers?

I'm in the process of converting a bunch of as2 projects to as3 and I'm having a rough start.
I have a swf with a couple of movieclips, a button (put on the stage), a button created in actionscript, and a UILoader created in actionscript.
I publish the swiff and open it, and everything works fine.
When I embed this in a web page, both buttons and the UI loader don't show up.

In a canvas, I am having a Box. Inside that box many panels are created at runtime. Right now I am able to drag and drop a panel at other panels position. So as a result all panels shift to right. Now when I drag a panel, I want that view should be as if that panel's image should look like moving. Rite now i am just using an image (dotted rectangle). But what i want it should like the instance of same panel.

I'm doing this drag and drop animation where object 1 is dragged to object 2. When object 1 is dropped onto object 2, I need more than one image of object 1 to appear. I've used this simple code for drag and drop:
on(press) {
startDrag(this,false);
}
on(release) {
stopDrag();
}

I am trying to get target movie clip's alpha value, which is animated.
When the alpha value is reached to certain value, I want to trigger certain event.
Is any way to get current frame's target alpha value by using set interval or event lister?

I have been working on a full flash website and am encountering a strange problem (or at least its strange to me).
I have the main shell of the site, which contains:The layoutNavigationA movieclip which pages are loaded into (external swf's)Some actionscript which streams in an MP3The controls for the background musicA piece of actionscript which loads an animated background (another external SWF)
I then have a series of pages in their own SWF's which get loaded into a movieclip within the shell when the user clicks the relevant button on the menu. Most of these pages contain:The panels for the content on that pageSome dynamic text areas for the text content on that pageSome actionscript which loads the content for that page from a couple of text files and populates the dynamic text areas Then there is a showreel, which has a menu and a customized FLVPlayback component to play audio and video tracks; the data for the menu and the tracks themselves are stored in XML files.
If I am using a connection over 2MBit: Initial preloader appears, shell loads, background music streams in nicely and then the content page is loaded in, panels animate in and the text content appears; all is well and its pretty quick.
If I throttle my bandwidth to below 2MBit (the main tests being done with the connection throttled to 1.5MBit), this happens: Initial preload appears, shell loads, background music streams in but takes a bit longer to start up, content page loads in, panels animate in and the content appears for about 2 seconds.
THEN the contents of the text areas disapears and the word "undefined" appears. So the content seems to be dropped. I've done some testing to identify the cause and if I comment out the code which streams in the background audio, the issue disapears and everything works fine, so it appears to be related to the audio. I will say, its not the most lightweight of sites; its quite graphically heavy (nothing too excessive though) and the background music is a 6MB MP3; the owner of the site is a movie composer so he has a lot of high quality streaming audio.
So I was wondering if anyone knows why this type of issue would occur, it seems strange that Flash would drop the content thats been loaded in, that background music would break the process.

Is there a way to prevent a motion tween w/ rotation from dropping on the Y axis? Basically I used Free Transform to change the angle of a line, but it always lowers itself on the Y axis when I insert a motion tween in it.

I've just upgraded from CS3 to CS5 and have discovered an annoying issue with cue points. When I open an existing FLA that has a movie with actionscript cuepoints and try to replace it with another movie (an updated version), Flash drops all my cue points and I have to re-enter them. Is there some way to prevent this?

We just bought two Decklink Studio cards to use with our live streaming servers.First, everything works fine. We have high quality flash live streaming, using SDI input with embedded audio.But after approximately 10 hours of streaming,the quality comes down, and the frame rate too, looks like the encoder start are dropping frames.Then if we just try to stop the live encoder, they freeze.The only way to close the program is forcing with CRTL+ ALT+ DEL.At this time, if we restart the FMLE, all works fine again, for more or less 10 hours.

what im doing is the user drags the lego piece from the tray and drops it on the red square and the next piece arrives to do that again and again. The issue is that sometimes it screws up and doesnt go to the next step or goes backwards in steps like its hitting invisible pieces. heres a link to the project in action on my [url]......
The code I am using to drag and drop is attached in a text file to check out if needed.

I'm creating a drag and drop movieclip to colour a different movieclip. I need to duplicate the first instance so as the original stays in the same place (on the pallette), and then the dragged one can be removed after it has been dropped into the area. This is the script for the dragging and dropping of the original instance, but I can't figure out the duplication/removal part:
on (press) {
startDrag("_root.pallette1");
this._alpha = 70;

Is there any way of Duplicating a movie and then calling upon it to drag and drop it else where? I can't seem to get it working since the script for drag and drop calls upon an instance name - and the instance name for the duplicated movie has a variable at the end so its different all the timeeg duplicateMovieclip("movieclip", "instance name"+i, i)I don't even know if its possible calling upon an instance name that doesn't exist until something is clicked O.o;

i've built a little game, where the user can drag and drop objects on a canvas. there's a button wheren the canvas turns black, and the objetcs (images) become white, like a photographic image. What I'm trying to do without sucess until now, it to make the draggable objects infinit, so the user can drag as many objects as he can.

I am making a game in flash, that uses several resources to build different buildings, that help you to gain resources, etc. I'm trying to make it so that the more "_global.food" you have, the faster your resources will go up. I have it so that the variable "_global.woodBoostMeter" goes up as fast as "_global.woodBoostSpeed" and when it reaches 500, it gives you 1 wood. I want it so that "_global.woodBoostSpeed" is modified by "_global.food" divided by whatever 200 is. (So that you will get resources faster for the more food you have)
Here's the code I'm using:
Quote:
_global.woodBoostMeter =0
_global.woodBoostSpeed = _global.food / 200
_global.woodBoostObtainRate =1
[Code]....
I think the problem seems to be with the "_global.woodBoostSpeed = _global.food / 200". it doesnt go up slow like it should, since "_global.food" starts out at like 200.

I have a movie clip with motion in it. I'd like to duplicate this image, blur it, and mask it. I think I can do all of that, but I don't know how to update the blur so it will blur the moving elements in my movie clip.
how to constantly take a snapshot of a movieclip and blur it (while disposing of old snapshots)?

In the last 2 projects i've worked on, i've been using the blur filter to create certain effects.My problem is that whenever I test the movie in the Flash CS4 IDE, it crashes giving me the option to submit a crash report to Adobe before quitting.If I run the compiled SWFs outside of Flash, they perform much better and there is no crashing.

I have an array with let's say 10 items (keuzes_arr) in it and I want to put 'm on stage randomly, but every item can only be placed once. So I created a little loop, but for some reason the loop freezes constantly. This loop creates a random number, checks if it's already been used. And if not it use it to place the item on the stage.

I've taught myself actionscript without books (working on a book now, finally) and I'm wondering how to do something fairly simple: Constantly get the property of an object.... for example, lets say I want to dynamically scale a clip using buttons... if you just use the tween class it will not work! I don't know why (again self taught), but you have to constantly get the _xscale and _yscale property. Currently I'm doing this via an empty movie clip with the following actionscript:
[Code]...
It works fine, but I assume there's a purely as way to do this? Also if anyone knows of an array tutorial for microbe-brained people (like myself), that would be helpful as well. I've gone through a few, but I still can't fully wrap my mind around WHY and HOW it works (even though I've implemented plenty of arrays).

I have a couple of text fields in my Flash movie that are constantly updated with text from an xml document. The xml document is updated through an interface on a seperate swf. It's based on a flash guestbook I found and have hacked apart, and everything works fine in theory... My main worry is that over the course of a day it loaded in the text 170,000 times: 30 times a second which is a little excessive and is playing havoc with my web stats. I've cut this down to once every 10 seconds but I'm still thinking I should use a better method, would it be possible to test for changes before I load in new text, or am I going about this entirely the wrong way?
var currPage = 0;
var showAmount = 1;// set this to the amount of entries you want to view at a time
// **** Load XML ****************************
myXML = new XML();

I am programming a card sort application in which I am dragging and dropping the cards on the boxes. While dropping these cards it should arrange them in a stack format. e.g. if card1 is dragged and dropped on box1 it will appear behind it, card2 behind card1 and so on. And if I want drag these dropped cards to another box these cards should be rearranged accordingly without showing any in between empty slots. Now the problem is when I drag these cards from the box I set relative depths to them. But the after doing this the cards get disabled.

We have a flex application communicating with our server. The flex app makes many HTTP requests (posts and gets) to the server, in many cases in parallel. We have been noticing that we get many dropped connections, experienced from the flex app. The server does not see any failed requests at all and is not under load. I am also suspecting that flex may be on-connection-drop, automatically retrying the POST or GET request, resulting in our server receiving the request twice.

I realize I'm not even close to done and its probably shitty but this is my code so far:
var bucket:Bucket=new Bucket
var sun:Sun=new Sun
var fireBalls:Array=new Array()
[Code].....
I know I want to use a timer event or something to get the sun to switch directions randomly but I can't quite figure it out
this is an idea of what the swf looks like (its not loading everything in this simulation, the bucket is on the stage and moves left and right onKeyDown in reality):

I've managed to use a key listener to make this icon move. My next goal is to make the rest of the icons on stage sort scoot over. I can't use the mouse x or Hit Test property. Can this be done using just arrows and code?
- Icon on stage user uses arrow keys to select an icon.
- User selects icon with Enter key and initiates move with arrow keys.
- As user moves icon over the other icons on stage, they move or scoot over.
The selected icon then moves into new place. Animation.gif illustrates this.

I'm working on a Flash project in which users are able to draw on the stage. Once they've drawn their lines and turned off the pen tool, though, I want them to be able to do something unusual. I want them to have the ability to drag and drop the lines they've drawn. I actually don't really care whether they pick up individual segments separately or everything together, but they need to be able to drag and drop in some way, shape or form.
The line-drawing code currently looks like this:
ActionScript Code:
onMouseDown = function(){
if (penOn) {
if (erased7 == true) {
[Code]......
When I make line7 draggable (by dynamically appending event handlers to the line after the user creates it), subsequent attempts by the user to draw lines cause the new lines to appear within the confines of the movieclip already created, no matter where the mouse button is pressed. The problem, as I've been able to determine, is essentially this: When you don't make the line draggable, the dimensions of the line movieclip expand every time the user clicks the mouse button. But appending the event handlers in effect freezes the movieclip, and its dimensions aren't changed after that, at least not by this code. I've tried workarounds, but no luck. I've also tried creating a new movieclip each time the user tries to draw another line, but that's failed as well
