ActionScript 3.0 :: Input Commands For A Game Not Working Outside Of Compiler?
Nov 6, 2011
I am trying to accept inputs for special moves in a game I am making. The following code works fine inside of the Flash Pro program, but once it is compiled to a SWF it no longer worksThe buttons that I use for this are Z,A and C and none of them work. All I do is add a "Z" "A" or "C" to an array and pop the last one every time. If the 3 most recent inputs match what the special move is, it does the moves.Again, it works fine in Flash, but once it's in the SWF it doesn't. Anyone know what I could be doing wrong?
Code:
public function TestSpecialAttack(SpecialAttack)
{

ive recently introduced myself to AS3, its starting to get a bit frustrating. it seems that when i put the preloader actions in the timeline, everything is fine, the stop(); commands work fine. BUT when it comes around to adding the navigation to the timeline as well (ive tried putting the code on a separate keyframe, ive tried various styles of code) the stop(); actions are completely ignored.

I cannot get embed fonts working Everywhere I look it says to do it like I am doing it below, but it doesn't work. I am using FlashDevlop with Flex compiler. There are no error messages. I have tried taking everything out of the Embed directive and adding it in one by one, but no affect.
When I use the system font, it works.
When I use the embedded fonts without setting embedFonts to true, I get TimesRoman.
When I use embedded font with embedFonts to true, I get nothing.
ActionScript Code:
package fontManager{
import flash.text.TextField;
import flash.text.TextFormat;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;
public class Main extends Sprite

im trying to make a third-person shooter game similiar to those "hide" when you press Down and "attack mode" when you stand Up, sort of like Time Crisis.I've done first person shooter games before.The hero character's move clip contains three clips, one of him in hiding, one in attack mode, and the last being hit. How do I script it such that the "hide" clip does not receive any commands from the enemy clip (which tells the hero clip to advance to "hit" clip and lose a health").

Its stated in adobe site that the Flash Builder 4 compiler is indeed 25% more performing than the previous Flex Builder 3 compiler.
How can I confirm that?
For example if I make a simple application on Fx3 and the same on Fx4, then how would I compare the compiler performance using my project?

I am making a game and I have run into a problem where I need to reclick on the game with the mouse for it to recognize keyboard input. I know having to click on the flash game once is normal, but whenever my game restarts (goes to the first level) I have to reclick on it or they keyboard input does not work. How do I resolve this? Is there a way to request the attention of the keyboard or something?

I'm starting work on a midi piano game in flash. I have my midi keyboard hooked in through the USB. Now I've been told that there is some way to get flash to read any kind of input but I am not sure on how. Basically all that will happen is that u hit a key on the piano and a box shows up of random color. Longer u hold a key bigger it gets. Each key will have different box assigned to it. I think I could handle everything but I'm stuck on the first step and that is getting flash to read the Piano key presses.

I am learning to code in flash by making simple virtual paper doll games. My most recent works fine in Safari and Chrome, but in IE gets the dreaded "a script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash to run slowly" and either refuses to load or plays everything immobile and blinking.
The game can be seen (or not seen, depending on browser) here: [URL]
It seems to load until around the 20% mark and then freeze. The game also works fine when directly in my computer instead of on the web.

The default value text displays, but when you click into them to type nothing appears.I've tried embedding fonts, making sure I use th Font class, even setting them to _sans and system font, but nothing. Totally at my ropes end before I wind up re-writing most of this thing.These really should be TextInputs, I know, but this is some other f*cker's crap work I'm cleaning up and I don't feel like refactoring the rest of his garbage.

I am working on a budget project where users input text (numbers) and it is automatically added. The swfs works great, but when I export an exe it does not work. Users can delete the "0" that is there, but can not type in anything. I've embedded the font. I also had a exe that externally loaded the swf, but it still did not work. I'm attaching my code.
Actionscript Code:
import flash.events.Event;rent.restrict = "0-9";util.restrict = "0-9";gro.restrict = "0-9";toi.restrict = "0-9";car.restrict = "0-9";gas.restrict =

I ran over a problem with a video player that fades over a contact form. the problem is that the video player somehow disables the textfields of the form - even after the player fades away again.
I removed childs and set buttonMode=false for all the elements of the video player... ( when the player is closed ) --- but somehow it still disturbs the form after its gone.
The form works until the video player comes in
Here is the links: [URL] See how u can type in the text fields until the player appears...

can't figure out why the keyboard input isn't working. I got this warning, but I always get that warning and it always works. The warning says:Warning: 1090: Migration issue: The onKeyDown event handler is not triggered automatically by Flash Player at run time in ActionScript 3.0. You must first register this handler for the event using addEventListener ( 'keyDown', callback_handler).

I'm following a tutorial to make a simple game. The aim of the game is for a player to evade a flying enemy ; the higher the score, the faster the enemy. The main elements in the game are the enemy the player and a score card.
However, from following the tutorial, and adding the dynamic text field etc....the score doesn't actually work.
This is the code that I was instructed to place on the first frame of the Scripts layer:
//Game Variables
enemySpeed = 5; //Set Enemy initial speed
numberEnemy = 4; //Change this to add more Enemies
score = 0; //Set initial score to 0

I have a game which was built in AS2, I am trying to make a countdown timer so the game starts without the start button.
This is what currently prompts the game to start after "plat_btn" is pressed
play_btn.onRelease = function ()
{
_root.menu.customItems[0].visible = _root.menu.customItems[1].visible = _root.menu.customItems[2].visible = true;

I'm using ActionScript 2.0 with Flash CS4 Professional, andI'm running into conflicting info on how to do this depending onwhich Flash book I'm looking at (and is that really a surprise?).1) I want the user to type text into a text field and thenFlash places what they've typed into a variable.So I created a text field of the type 'Input Text' andassigned this variable 'myInput'2) When the user presses a button, I want Flash to look atwhat is in the variable. THEN... If they have typed the correctword, they are sent to frame 19. If they type anything else, theyare sent to frame 38.In this example, the correct word is: "move"So, I placed this script on the button:
on (release) {
trace(myInput);
if (myInput = "move") {

I'm new with flash and I'm having some trouble with my script. The idea is to start the game by pressing the start button, and the countdown starts. The start button will then disappear. In 60 seconds, the idea is to try to drag all the garbage objects into the respective recycling bins. Only 1 try per object.The object will return to it's original position if it's been placed wrongly, mouseevent for that object is then disabled.
After 60 seconds, the game will end and all mouseevents are disabled. The start button reappears and I can restart the game again.

I have a main movie that loads a child movie clip. The child movie clip is a security access movie with 2 input boxes (standard input box components). When I run the child movie on its own the input boxes work fine.When I load the child movie from the main movie input boxes do not allow me to write in the input boxes. The cursor remains blinking inside the component but does not respond to keyboard.This is the code in the main movie that loads the child:
security.addEventListener(ContextMenuEvent.MENU_ITEM_SELECT, fsecurity);
function fsecurity(e:ContextMenuEvent):void{var loadera = new Loader();addChild(loadera);loadera.load(new U

I am working on a line rider/ free rider style game in flash (which is coming along quite nicely ). For the whole night I've been trying to create a way to save and load data simply off text and have finally come up with a basic solution for it! I have my information all stored into an array neatly to be later used with the function lineTo upon load. My problem here is that when I actually input the data into the textbox to be picked up by the load button it does not draw the lines like its supposed to.My load button has the following code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
onRelease = function() {
var points = new Array(_root.xInput);[code]......
