ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Place 3 Classes In 1 Main
Feb 2, 2012
Maybe it sounds really stupid.. but I really dont have any idea how to place 3 classfiles named: Tower_Fire, Tower_Ice and Tower_Lightning into the main file:GameController.as
They're all the same, but I want to link them when I'm currently placing a tower. So as example, if I call Tower_Lightning.. that you can place the Tower_Lightning on the placing(spawn) where you want.However, with those 3 class files it's working, but I really want to put them all 3 in the main file instead.Tower_Fire.as:
ActionScript Code:
package Game
{
[code].....

I am trying to place an external .swf into my main movie.
I created a container movie for the .swf in the main .fla:
Code:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("mapcontainer",this.getNextHighestDepth );
mapcontainer._x = 163;
mapcontainer._y = 101;
[Code]....
I imagine that the solution lies in readjusting _root for the fact that the external .swf is now placed inside a parent, but I don't know how to do that.
n.b. my final movie is meant to run offline.

I am fairly new to flash and I have been trying to make a product demo. Basically I want some text to fade in and then some pictures to show up one by one and then disappear and then some new text fades in etc. This is to talk about a product and show various parts of it as the text on the screen is discussing those parts of the product. My question is what the preferred way of doing this is. Here are the options I can think of.
Approach 1) Put all animation in the main timeline. All text tweens take place on frames in the main timeline. Approach 2) Put the text fade-in tweens in a movie clip and put that on the main timeline.
I have tried both these approaches but neither one has been working for me for the following reason.
Approach 1) Makes timeline very long and unwieldy. If one thing changes, it shifts everything over and messes up my whole timeline. Hard to manage. Approach 2) If I have a stop(); on the main timeline, my animation stops in mid fade. In cases where I don't have a stop, I can't figure out how to do a series of objects fading in one after another. Is there a way to check if a movieclip has finished and only go to the next frame if it has finished? How do I get a series of clips to play one after another when I am running them as seperate movieclips off the main timeline.

1: When I get back to my main game screen, how do I keep my MovieClip in the same place it was before.
2: When I run this code:
Code:
if(numberOfGras**** == 1){
mcGrass1.visible = false;
mcMonster.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, TouchingGrass1);
}
It makes mcGrass1 disappear, but not the event listener. When I touch the area where it was, it still goes to the screen "math". [URL] That is the location of my .fla

We are migrating to AS3 at my job and I have run across a weird bug (???). I use the same basic class structure for most of my projects:Main.as - document class. handles preloader and sometimes XML loading, etc.Navigation.as - the class that handles all menu buttons, etc.Content.as - handles all the pages, game content, whatever.I created a game with this basic structure and published the SWF. Everything works great.Now, I built a website with this same basic structure and when I try to load the game SWF, it throws a bunch of runtime errors - it seems to be confused by the fact that the class names are the same.Each SWF works fine by itself. It only crashes when I try to load one into the other.
I should mention that both the game and website have identical package structure (because they are for the same client, duh!).Is this a flash player bug or am I doing something wrong? I went through the website and renamed all of the classes and it fixed the problem, but my concern is that we may have to load SWFs in the future that we didn't create. What if they have a similar issue? Unlikely, but possible.

What is the correct way to import 'sub' classes into a main class?What i have is a class (i call it Console) that gives the user info about the swf for debugging, but also gives the user the ability to give their input to dynamically change the swf. Sorta like what games have when you press the "`" key.But it handles more things then just read user input, it also connects to the Database through PHP and connects through the server using Sockets.And there are more of those things that gets added later, so to prevent it gets to big later i want to split it into multiple .as files
Console Class: renders stuff and allows user input.I want that to include the following classes:
ConnectPHP Class (handles php > mysql)
ConnectJava Class (handles sockets)
So that the methods in those 2 classes are accessible in the Console class like:
[code]...
I tried importing them but then i had to access them through the Object initialized:
[code]...
But i want to access them as
[code]...
removing the reference of the ConnectJava Object. Is this possible? If you wonder why, id like to keep it as simple as possible because i share the classes with my friends.

I having trouble nesting classes then calling them on the main stage.I have one AS file that contains all the functionality to create a simple button with a text field that can be customized from the FLA file. I want to use this AS file to create another AS file for a form.I have called the simple button from the AS file into my other AS using import RoundRectButton.

I have a project which has a main swf file that is compiled with a bunch of classes. The main swf also loads in other child swf objects, created in the flash IDE, that happen to reference some of the same classes.
It seems redundant to have the child swfs include the main swfs classes, especially if I update the classes which means I have to recompile all the child swfs, not just the main swf.
Im using FlashDevelop 4.0 RC3 with Flex 4.6/AIR 3.1 to code the main swf, and the child swfs are flas made in CS5.
I was thinking of using SWC's, but I'm not sure how to incorporate that into FlashDevelops workflow. I tried the SWC export plugin but that doesnt seem to work very well, it attempts to export everything in the project and doesnt seem to offer me an option to be specific...
Surely there is a way to compile flas from the IDE and allow for classes to be used for compile type checking etc, but not actually include them in the compiled swf? I know with the flex command line compiler you can generate a link-report xml from the main swf then use that xml file to exlude classes from the compile of the child swfs, but I cant see how to do something like that when exporting swfs from the flash IDE.

I'm working on a lot of different flash applications Most of those applications are visual and involves the main stage.I started oop a while ago and i got to a point that %99.9 percent of my code is extracted to different classes.There is one thing that repeat on a regular basis on all of my apps, passing the Stage variable to the different classes....It's working great but it doesnt feel right that i need to pass the main stage as a variable between the different classes,is there a better way to access the stage from external classes ? can i make the main stage a static property and access itwithin all the objects in the application ?

I have the following code on the main timeline. I have soundLoad_mc assigned to the SoundChgUrl class.soundLoad_mc.mp3URL = "climbing.mp3";soundLoad_mc.swfName = "journey.swf";The code below is from SoundChgUrl. The import to mp3URL works. The one to swfName does not - it throws "1119: Access of possibly undefined property swfName through a reference with static type classes:SoundChgUrl." This doesn't make sense to me.

Before this application runs, I have to do some basic intialising - load up some stuff, build the display list, check I've got the right xml, wire a few objects together. I'm used to doing all of this stuff in the constructor of Main() - my main application class, but it gets a little unwieldy. Would there be any mileage in offloading this into a command class? Is that common practice? I was thinking that way all that Main() would have to do is just listen for events and manipulate methods of the other main classes. The only thing that concerns me is that Main needs references to the main classes and to add event listeners etc. This could be tricky if it's all set up in a command...

I had to create a menu using array and I had to animate it. With some great expertise from people, I've accomplished that. But now I have a question about OOP, because I'm trying to add functionality to the buttons to load swfs into my main movie. Even though I strictly follow tutorials and exercises, I can't figure out how to reference a variable made in one class to another. For instance, I have index.as, navbar.as, and menubutton.as. I assume I need to add a loader to my index.as. But I can't trace the loader in my other classes. I've been told to effectively accomplish this, it is best to use custom event dispatchers. But I'm lost on how to use them.

I just started using flashdevelop and I have some problems with importing all classes.
1. I used export all classes to SWC file and I added it to the library in FD. How can I import instances placed on the stage without creating AS linkages? I don't want to export these instances for AS, because some of them are textfields. By making linkages I'm forced to transform them to Sprite or MovieClip (am I right?) and my methods connected to these object don't work anymore.
2. When I export my project in FD, I get error 1065: variable Main is not defined. Main is my document class. I made this class my entry in FD.

how can we place hundreds of instances of one movieclip on different place?
for exemple, pacman:
how should i code the placement of all the money?
i would go:
_root.attachMovie(
_root.attachMovie(
_root.attachMovie(
but that's not the good solution is it?
there must be a code to do that without hundreds of lines of code.

I've worked wioth sub classes so I know how they work but I always work with everything all in one folder which can get messsy when there are a lot of classes to work through. So i started to make folders inside of my main folder but it's not working. Thought it may be to do with package names but as far as i know, for the whole "classes in separate folders" things that's how they are supposed to be.

Is there any way to auto-import as3 classes (internal/intrinsic Flash Player classes at least) using Emacs ?
Looked for as3-mode and actionscript-mode but nothing working was found. as3-mode can import class if it is opened in buffer (but not *.mxml files)

The examples I'll use don't do anything - they're classes without ANY members - no variables, methods, anything.
Let's say I extends Sprite and call it MySprite.
I save it in test.core
[code]...
Now I create another custom class called MyWindow that extends MySprite.
I save it in test.windows
[code]...
Then I create another class that extends MyWindows (the example I'll use is a document class - but that doesn't matter - I've tested using an instance too).
[code]...
Notice that I'm not even trying to instantiate the helper classes - just having them there throws the error.
If there is only a single helper class, everything runs fine.
Also note that - as far as I can tell - this only happens when extending one class from another package, then extending that class with more than one helper object.I'm pretty sure there's no namespace bumps or typographical errors, as this is a very pared-down version of the original application.
EDIT: seems the problem exists even without the crossing packages - even extending MySprite in the document class with multiple internal classes generates this error.

I am creating a library in AS3. Inside the library I make use of a bunch of classes/packages that need not be exposed to the end user of my lib. I want to only expose one of these classes.
I guess my questions are:
1) How are libraries commonly distributed in AS3?
2) Is there a .jar equivalent in AS3 that developers can include, but will only have access/knowledge of the classes I've declared as public?

I'm trying to import a class from a class that is located in another folder. How do you move up a directory? Using./ or ../ doesn't seem to work. Essentially I want to access a TweenLite Class but not from the document class. My class is at com/myName and the class I want to access is at com/TweenLite. import ../TweenLite doesn't work... I realize I could just copy and paste the entire Tweenlite folder again, but there's got to be a less duplicative way of doing this..

inheritance and building classes from other classes.
I have 3 classes:
gfxRoomText - changeable colour
gfxRomInter - changeable colour - interactive
gfxRoomImg - interactive - only image / no colour
The first two incorporate the same text field and functions to change colour. The second and third incorporate another class to interactive with. What is the best way of creating these classes using inheritance and how?
