ActionScript 3.0 :: HitTest For Multiple Movie Clip At The Same Time?
Dec 5, 2009
I have a movie it is a triangle.I duplicate it and I want to hitTest on the first triangle movie clip and I added 3 different line movie clips on the 3 side of triangle.I tried to write a code something like that.
I am working on doing a hitTest using one attachMovie and one repeating movieClip. I am running into trouble because the movie clip is changing it's name every time it's created (panda1, panda2, panda3, etc...) and the attachMovie, fire, is not recognizing the created MC's. here is the code to create the movieClips:
By using the attachMovie function, I create multiple entities of the same movieClip. Is it possible to detect collisions from the same, but multiple movie clips (And, with different Linkage Identifiers with each entity of the same movieClip.
I have created a movie clip which contains a button and a dynamic text field, instance name "anwTxt". In the dynamic text field I entered just the word "field" and set the the following in the properties window: multiline=true, wordwrap=true, font=16, font color=white.I then dynamically create multiple instances of this movie clip at run time, populating the text field from the contents of a user defined array. However if the text inserted from the array is to long it is simply cut off, instead of continuing on to a new line. Does anyone know why the field will not generate new lines, or have another solution to this issue?

Code: Comments to explain //inside a for loop[code]....
Using "holder2.anwTxt.multiline = true;" has no affect. If I attempt to alter the height or width of the textfield (ie.holder2. anwTxt. height = 400 I recieve the error "thats a read only property"
I am trying to duplicate a loaded movie clip multiple time. Below is the code. how to dublicate it using loadClip method.
ActionScript Code: var thumbImgLoader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader(); var thumbImgListener:Object = new Object(); thumbImgListener.onLoadProgress = function(target:MovieClip):Void {
1 Movie Clip instancied as a "cursor" 1 Movie Clip instancied as a "Mc_Obstacles" with others 5 Movie Clipsand the 5 Movie Clips inside the "Mc_Obstacles" are instancied as "Obstacle" , all with the same instance...I want this: when the mc "cursor" hit one of mcs "obstacles" gotoandstop to frame X then i did in frame with actions in another layer:
I'm making a droid (bad guy) move down the screen. If it hits the robot (good guy) the baseHealth will go down 2, same if it hits the bottom of the screen. If it hits the beam movie clip then it will go to the top of the screen and continue downward. The beam movie clip is a laser that slowly move outward, and I want the droid to go to the back of the screen if it ever touches any frame of the beam. However, when the droid touches the beam nothing happens, though it seems to work when it touches the robot or hits the bottom of the screen.
Code: addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, moveDroid); function moveDroid(e:Event):void{[code]....
I am trying to set up a if function for a hit test. I am using action script 2.0 am coding all in one layer not within movie clips so dont give me code in that format unless nececary.I have a movie clip with instance name src_resolute and I have another movie clip that is nested inside another movie clip named endbar.What I am trying to do is when src_resolute hits endbar I want it do gotoandplay the next scene.The parrent movie clip of the nested movie clips instance name is background.If you need any more infromation let me know but basicly what I want to do is when my main character(src_resolute) makes contact with the nested movie clip(a movie clip I have drawn inside of another movie clip) I want it to jump to the next scene or more specificaly scene 4.
I have a fairly complex animation movie clip within my main timeline in a Flash file. When you click a button, it plays the movie clip, then goes back out to the main timeline. The first time the movie clip runs, it plays choppy and slow, but if I play it two or more times, it plays correctly (smoothly). Is there some actionscript I need to preload the movie clip, or some other solution to the first-run slowness?
Setting up a time limit that if the time equals to 3 minutes the game stop.I have a card game with 10 different cards to be paired. My problem is to put a timer that limit the player to only 3 minutes of playing after which a movie clip that says "Time is up!" will be displayed.
how to imitate a reflection of a movie clip in a "mirror." I don't know if I should have the initial movie clip on custom cursor or have it set to drag... but either way I don't know how to make the second clip the "reflection follow along. Obviously it would need to follow at a slightly offset pattern so that you would be able to see both clips (or majority of them) at the same time. It's for a school project that is due at 9am tomorrow so time is of the essence!!
I was wondering about the flexability of loading movies into a movie clip. Currently, I am well able to load one movie into a movie "loader" clip, but thought maybe there is a way to load additional movie clips into that same "loader" clip, as i am starting to accumulate several different graphics that i need to have be inside movie clips so that i can make them change colors on the same frame when needed.
i shot from the hip and tried this code, but didnt have any luck:
ok I only got my flash movie working half way. I have 2 picture containers but only one is working. I changed the name on the second one to match the flash instance names but still won't work.
is it possible to swap depths for multiple movie clips at the same time? how about swapping for negative depths? or will that kind of thing lead me into probs later?
i have a button with some code on it to play a movie clip when pressed. the movie clip should run until the last frame and then stop at the end where i have a stop action.what actually happens is the movie clip plays the first time the button is pressed but not the second time. the third time it plays again but not the fourth, the 5th time it plays etc. etc.i have noticed that if i change the stop action to a gotoAndStop(1) action the film plays everytime without problems. but what i need is it to play everytime and then stop at the end without going back to frame one until the button is clicked once more.
i have a 2 recangle movie clip with w:500 h:400 named (p1 , bs) ,and a i wanted to Mask those 2 movie clip with action sctrip, with a w:1000 h:1300 Recangle, named(Mask)i can do it if using the layer Masking, but i wanted to use action stricp to mask.
code: p1.mask = Mask bs.mask = Mask
but i cant do it , i cant mask those 2 movie clip at the same time ,it only work on bs.mask = Mask.i intention is to Mask those both movie clip,any idea what is going on ?
I'm making a sort of easter egg hunt on a forum and would like to put the "eggs" in a small flash movies. But it should only be possible for one person to click the "egg" after that it dosn't show anymore (transperant movie).
I proberly need the movie to talk to an external file, but how do I do that?
I have made a scene with a flv in it. The problem is that when I first run my scene the flv plays slow, then when I have played thru it and starts at the beginning again it plays in the speed I want it to. I would really like it to play in normal speed first time as well.
Basically what I'm trying to do is make a sundial-style clock animation. I'm using AS2 in Flash CS4. I'm still quite new to Flash so my AS know-how is slightly limited...
I want to get the time from the user's computer (I'm using getHours) and make a line (movie clip) rotate to a certain angle based on the hour. Eg. 1pm = 13 degrees, 2pm = 26 degrees and so on. This is the script I have so far and all it seems to do is rotate the movie clip to 90 degrees.
The stage loops through a few clips so this one gets removed and added to the stage again and again by itself. How can I modify the contents of it on each loop iteration?[code]...
I have a Movie Clip with two key frames. One Button sits on key frame 1 and changes its position in frame 2 (its instance name remains the same.) The Movie Clip is created dynamically and placed on the stage via code, then mouse click listeners are added to the button. My question is this: When the Movie Clip transfers from fram1 to frame 2, will I need to add the listener back to the button? In addition, I noticed that when I use key frames to move a Graphic Object, sometimes the object behaves like a singe object that is moved and sometimes it behaves like several objects that are created and destroyed in different locations.
my aim is to get the movie clip (bar shapes) to move up and down randomly over time. this is the actionscript ive done so far. by the way im using flash 8 so i beleive that its actionscript 2.
I have this animated block that I want to use multiple times in a scene. Everything looks fine until I move the background(separate layer) with a tween. The second it moves it shows only one animating block instead of 4. Also, if I click on "show this layer only" it only shows the one block.So how can I use this movie clip multiple times?
I'd like to know if it's possible to have several buttons in a single movieclip that can interact with things outside of that movieclip? An earlier test failed due their instance names not being found, I'd like to think it were possible though.
My reason for asking is that I'd like to control the visibility/position of a large group of buttons simultaneously via AS3 while keeping to a single frame.
Is it possible (in AS2 or AS3) to have a button that starts a video as well as an MC at the same time? The idea being that the video will play alongside a movieclip that contains animated quotes from the dialog of the video, so syncing would be critical to.
I'm new to actionscript 3 but I do have a little actionscript 2, but, what I want to do is change the colour of a movie clip or the stage using local time. From what I could gather you can't change the stage colour but you can change the colour of a movie clip.[code]...
