In my game the player can create turrets, those turrets will be put into a array but my problem is that i dont want the player to be able to build 2 turrets or more on the same spot. this is what i have tried so far:
[Code].....
So I have a small game where I have implemented a* path finding. I have a spot where a player moves around the screen along the path found. I have a section where i know the user is at the end of the path and I am looking to dispatch an event at this moment so I can do things at the end of the path.
i have imported the aStar_path_dispatcher file into the move class then i do,
[code]...
then in my main document class i import the aStar_path_dispatcher again, and set up an instance of it: then add a listener:
[code]...
however this "move finished" doesn't seem to want to work. I have never used custom events before
I tried to build a multiple flv player using ActionScript 2 (Flash 8) and managed to get a working model on my desktop, but it still won't function from the web server.

That means that i can drag my player and if the play htis "ground" nextframe should be played. BUT it doesnt work for some wierd reason? Why?
Morning stackers! So my question today isn't dealing with any code, but how to go about this the correct way from the start. I have a video player built to a static size (max: 800x600) which I'll have to re-code every time I need it to be a different size. What I need it to do in the near future is dynamically resize itself and all the elements inside of it based on 1 width variable that it will received either from HTML or XML. Now to me there are 2 ways to go about this:
Start with the smallest size possible and resize upwards, but I'm unsure of how the Flash movie will actually expand upwards as of right now.
Or 2, start with the largest size possible (in this case 800x600) and size everything down. Step 1, I think seems to be the better way to go about this (ala YouTube style), but Step 2 also seems like it could be the easier way? A friend of mine mentioned that I should go with the larger size and have elements resize in each class, then fix to the upper left hand corner. However for the player to fit inside of certain div columns on sites, blogs whatever he said that there will have to be an HTML/CSS side of this... meaning that the div containing the resized flash player will have to cover up the areas of the Flash movie that are not to be shown? Is that possible to put a 800x600 flash movie into a div that smaller then 800 pixels wide? And cover it up with another div?
I like to build an video player width a syncron diashow.So there should be a video connected to a xml file which contains the time and the image path. When the video passes one cue point, the image should change.I tried the component flvplaybackcaptioning, but this component only works with text.?
View 1 RepliesI am trying to build a flash player for my company's Shoutcast server, and have seen a few articles about it on the 'net, including this SO question here. However, I can't seem to get the audio stream to actually play. It seems to be connecting alright, but calling stream.play() doesn't seem to do anything.
public function stream() {
private var url:URLREQUEST = "my.domain.com";
private var sStream:Sound = new Sound();
sStream.load(url);
sStream.play();
}

View 3 RepliesIn TFS 2010 build, I have a new build and I want to call an ant script that builds Flash. How do I call the ant script? Also How can I compile the Flash directly? I've seen the Power Tools and this question but it doesn't help me as we don't have TFS 2008. I can't find any documentation on how to use the power tools except the 1 sentence on the bottom of download page saying to create your build the old way and import it (which isn't very helpful). I've installed the power tools on the agent computer but I don't see any new options in the Toolbox when I'm designing the build flow.
View 2 RepliesI just started working with ant a few days ago. Right now I have a general buildall.xml which should call each project's build.xml. Because some projects depend on each other, I need to rebuild some other projects which depend on it. This isn't a problem--I'm just setting the depends property of the target. However, ant is always building the dependencies, even when the files haven't changed.Let's say project1 has no dependencies; project2 depends on project1; project3 depends on project1, 2; project4 depends on project1, 2, and 3; and so on.I could hack a solution which looks at project K, and checks if project 1 .. project K have updated files using uptodate. If so, then run the target. This is messy and appears unnecessary.
What is the cleanest way to implement this?EDIT: So I decided to just hack in a bunch of targets, "check_projectK" where it does the uptodate checks on all of its source files, its build file, and the build files of the 1 .. K-1 projects. Due to dependencies, this is always handled correctly. However, this is still a large amount of copy and paste for a large workspace.
Using FDT, when I have a debug configuration with several operations in the launcher chain and the final launcher opens in Flash Player, how can I retrieve the build output from the console once the build is complete and Flash player is running?
It seems that once Flash Player has started the console clears to make way for the application's trace output, but I need to be able to look back over the events and build times for each item in my launch chain while Flash Player is running. Is there a setting I can enable to either log my build output to a file or to preserve it in the console?
Edit: I know I can still read the info when building normally, this question is specifically for building with the debugger.

I dont want to embed the video into the timeline, so I would like the hotspots on the FLV itself. Does anyone know how to do this. youtube seems to do it just fine. Is it triggered via an event embedded on the FLV, in which case does anyone know the AS code for it?

The result of tracing the bulletContainer counts correctly in that its telling me that movieclips ARE being added to the stage; I Just know it comes down to some kind of logic that im forgetting. Here's My Code (The Bullet it self is a class)

I'm working on a flash movie(?) where I would like to place some hot spots on a image and with mouse over that display an info text. It got to be dynamical since I load location and text from a xml file. But I don't know where to start. Should I use SimpleButton for the hot spot and let the mouseover display a TextField with the info text?

View 3 RepliesI have a flash document that publishes to an swf I embedd into an html page. The flass is made up of three movie clips that I have managed to program to run in succession and then loop. Each movie clip (frame 1, frame 2 and frame 3) drill down into their own animation. I set the movie up this way so that each of the animations could be linked to a different web page. Now I want to add navigation within the flash itself by creating three dots that when clicked will send the movie to frame 1, 2 or 3. I can't seem to find an example of this and am just not well versed enough in script to figure this out.
