ame_Manager.as= this manages the creation of balloons, players and collisionsBalloon.as= This is the balloon classPlayer.as=This is the player classThe Game Manager class will pass stage to the balloon and player classes and create them. I add these two in the Game Manager class.In the balloon class i add all the balloons in an balloon array.Now when i run the code i am unable to check for collisions as nothing happens when the player and balloon collides. and i get a child must be a caller of the display object when i ry to remove the balloons after they have crossed the stage.I have been trying to make it work for a long time a the game is very very simple.in the Object Oriented way of designing this simple game as i think that is where my error might be.I will post the code for these belowGame Manager.as

I was editing a very basic mobile Flex project, and after I debugged the master (application) mxml file, Design View stopped working (blank screen displayed, no Design View errors) for all files. Creating new projects, either mobile or else, or testing old, working projects, doesn't work either. Out of the related issues I've found info on, most concern earlier versions of the IDE, and deal with either Design View errors (got none), use of certain functions or custom components (I get the error even on a new project), or are solved by changing styles back-and-forth (tried already, to no avail).
I can't drag and drop components to the design area, either (a "prohibited" symbol appears and nothing happens when I drop); so I'm pretty sure it's not code-related or a bug, but probably something stupid, like a configuration issue, so I definitely need someone to take a fresh look at it.

I'm trying to build a conditional statement that will addChild and removeChild at different Timer Delays. Before I go any further, I thought, I should mention that I'm usinig TweenMax to ease the alpha of ease Child from 1 to 0 and back during the process to imitate a fade-in/out.
I'm getting issue with only one line - inside a conditional statement.It's running "OK". The movie runs as I want it, but the remove/addChild transitions are not at the speed I want it at. I am getting an error message in the output, but other than that, the movie runs fine.

I'm working on OOP skills by creating a fun Mahjong game. I made a working concept (not very OOPed yet), and am trying to get everything OOPed before its too late. I want the tiles to transition in, maybe teleport in like a Star Trek movie. The tile object is a movie clip, so it can play the transition as it is added to the stage. Tiles will be added in, in increments so there's a cool wave-like effect of teleporting.
How would I know when the tiles have finished transitioning in? Would the tiles generate an events that the game object detects, starting the game after receiving X 'finished' events? Or should I create a timer in the game object where the amount of time to wait for the transition depends on the number of tiles being added to the board?
I think I'm close, but could use any general feedback on the concept. The coding is not an issue. I'm just trying to wrap my head around things.

I'm looking to get some good books on design patterns and I'm wondering what particular pattern you'd recommend for a Realtime Strategy Game (like Starcraft), MVC?. I'd like to make a basic RTS in Flash at some point and I want to start studying the best pattern for this.

Would like to know what is the best way of designing and building a basic AS2 flash dress-up game for girls and boys.
Are there any templates one can get going with?
The flash should be able to save a snapshot at any given moment and email the snapshot to 5 or less friends.

I'm still studying OOP designs, so what's the best way to achieve an inventory for a simple flash game? It seems that more than one design pattern could deliver some kind of an inventory but I would lose the flexibility if I try to adapt it somehow without a good knowledge about the subject. For money to buy what is available in an inventory I thought of Singleton. If there's enough cash earned while playing the game, then one can buy new skills. Maybe decorator pattern could list many thumbnails as buttons, and clicking on it applies new features and skills to the character.

This may seem like a noobish question (and it is) but I have created some AS code to help assist in a project of mine in a level design class to create a mock interface for a game. It works fine on the first screen but once you hit any button and go to the next and then try to go back, the code breaks and I am not sure why. Ive tried multiple things to get it to work but nothing seems to help. The code I am using is
ActionScript Code:
storybtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, start1);
function start1(MouseEvent){
gotoAndPlay(2);
}

It has been a ong time since I have poste a question but I am returning t AS3 after a break.I am starting a simple game and have used the "Copy as Motion in Action Script" after creating a Motion Tween in the timeline.The test works fine but I am not able to removeChild().After clearing up the error messages one by one I have a working anmation that will not remove itself.I have kept this part f the code in red. I have moved the addEventListener inside and outside the curly brackets with no difference in the end result.

I want to create a 2D real time multiplayer game in the browser in Action Script that can do the following:
Client: Player logs into Account via Flash Client. Player hits 'Versus Mode' Button. A lobby with a list of online servers come up. Player joins game. Heres where the problem comes in, I want the servers to be community hosted. i.e. the player downloads and runs a server app on their own desktop for other players to join. Players then go to the website and access the browser based client to find a list of active servers.
This would be a commercial product (players buy an account to log in through the client) and each player hosted server must handle 20 live players. As the servers are not centralized and scalability is handled by the community typical solutions like SmartFoxServer licences will not work.

Say i have a movieclip named a_Mc ( ClassA ) I have a sub-movieclip named b_Mc ( ClassB )
CASE 1: Accessing the sub-movieclip b_Mc which is already present inside the a_Mc movieclip
( Since Flash IDE has "Automatic instance naming" OFF )
ClassA mentions the name of b_Mc as => var b_Mc:MovieClip;
NOTE HERE: That the variable name MUST BE same as the name of the instance on stage.
So i can access it as : trace( a_Mc.b_Mc);

The very first attempt to write something in AS3.0 stumbled me. Code: play_btn.addEventListener( MouseEvent.CLICK, play ); results in runtime error "ArgumentError: Error #1063: Argument count mismatch on flash.display::MovieClip/play(). Expected 0, got 1". On one hand, everything is clear: the listener is expected to accept one argument and the play() function accepts none. One the other hand, everything starts to work fine after wrapping the call to the play() function in a trival closure, also accepting no arguments:
Code: play_btn.addEventListener( MouseEvent.CLICK, function(){ play(); } ); And as if that's not enough, the Adobe's "Programming ActionScript 3.0" document says on page 131 that "ActionScript 3.0 allows function calls to include more parameters than those defined in the function definition", which kind of implies that the initial code with the direct play() invocation is perfectly legetimate and should not lead to any error.

I am working on a website and I have my buttons within a MC and they are revealed when you rollover the MC.All buttons are independent buttons from my library and they each have unique instance names. These very instance names for the buttons match frame labels that I have in the first scene/main timeline.Here is the argument error that I receive when I click on one of my four buttons:
ArgumentError: Error #2109: Frame label instance7 not found in scene Scene 1.

I keep getting an error I cannot seem to solve. Although it does not seem to influence the behavior of my file, I don't know if it will in the future.
ArgumentError: Error #1063: Argument count mismatch on "filename"::MainTimeline/"thisfunction"(). Expected 0, got 1.

I've already looked up the error, and it's true, there is no argument assigned within the "()" of my function, but I don't know what to put since it's a function that applies to multiple buttons and is called upon in another function. A similar function doesn't return this error. When I put "e:Event" within the "()" it returns "error 1136: Incorrect number of arguments. Expected 1.

I'm trying to call a TweenEvent function which is placed in another class from my Document Class.
ActionScript Code:
ball[i].tweenX();
However, the following error message is appearing...
ActionScript Code:
Error #1063: Argument count mismatch on Ball/tweenX(). Expected 1, got 0.
I'm guessing I need to include something in the parentheses when I call .tweenx();, but I'm not too sure what?Here's the Tween Event function in the Ball class as well if it helps.
ActionScript Code:
public function tweenX(event:TweenEvent):void
