ActionScript 2.0 :: Attaching And Managing Multiple Movieclips?
Jun 14, 2011way to attach multiple movieclips from the library to the stage is and name them in an appropriate way, then refer to them as if they were an array: fielder[i]. I have tried a few approaches but the closest I have got is this: (this is attached to a movieclip already on the stage).

ActionScript 3.0 :: Attaching And Managing Multiple Movieclips?
Nov 9, 2011I have used AS2 for a long time, and have decided it is time to start working with AS3. When attaching multiple movieclips with instance names I would normally do this (AS2):
Code:
for (i = 1; i <= 6; i++) {
_root.attachMovie("test_mc","test_mc" + i,(300 + i),{_x:fx[i], _y:fy[i]});
_root["test_mc" + i]._width = 26.1;
}
but I am struggling to get the same effect with AS3. here is what I have so far...
Code:
var mcWheel:MovieClip = new wheel();
function attachImages():void {

ActionScript 2.0 :: Managing Multiple External .swf Loads?
Jul 18, 2006Let's say I have 5 .swfs that I am loading into one movie. Am I better off having each .swf load one after the other? Let's say once the first one is 50% complete, the second one starts etc. This will help bring the individual .swfs on faster but it will probably cause the overall load to take longer. Is this a correct assumption?

Dec 4, 2009What I am looking to do is add a fire button (added) which for the entire duriation it is held down it fires bullets (functions added), i'm stuck with what codes to use for the bullets.I want to create the bullets at certain points on the x, y axis and use a function to move ALL of the bullets accross the screen at the same speed at the same time.I'm fairly sure I need a Array of the bullets but I do not know how to do this.Also I do not know how to use AS to add clips to the page.I also do not know how to remove the clips from the stage and array once they hit the 'destructor' bar out of the screen area. (I know how to use the hittest in AS3).

Apr 29, 2010I'm creating an interactive tour (pretty much a controllable slideshow) and I have multiple pictures now that, if in the correct order, will walk you around my school. You can turn left or right at doors (the picture that you're stopped at will wait for input from either the up, left, or right button and when clicked will take you to the corrisponding picture) and will eventually lead you out another entrance of the school and take you back to the main map.
My problem lies in the pictures... I have hundreds of pictures each one needing to be referanced. The only thing I have figured out is that I need to use arrays to organize these pictures and make them easier to access. I have considered using XML to organize the lists of pictures but I cannot spend hours typing out all the names of the pictures.access my pictures from outside my flash AS3 project.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Managing Multiple Instances - Assign The Bullet Speed And Check For The Collisions With Enemies?
Sep 17, 2011I have been reading these forums for like 2 months, thus i never felt like being able to post something as a valuable answer to someone's problem, since i've been AS3ing for like 3 months now. I have a small problem here on a game that i am trying to create. I am trying to make a shooter game . Like the ones u kill enemies and then the the level advances ( imagine the pseydomovement depth feel of the background giving the player the taste of further movement of the field , yes like old airplane games ). Ok to the point.
1) created a main .as where all the code is running. The movement of the player is written there also. no problem with that. 2) created a bullet class where i assign the bullet speed and i check for the collisions with enemies. the problem occurs somewhere here i have created a statement where every some time ( like 0,5 secs ) an enemy appears and takes a random road till the stageHeight . here is the code .

So when all 5 mikros are out i start firing them . BUT only the last child of mikros seems to follow the hittestobject procedure of my code. Which means that if all of the 5 mikros are on stage the one with the smallest .y value will disappear when hit by "sfera". I know it is huge but this pains my head for like 1 week and i cannot think anything . Tried some staff. but i do not know if this is proper thinking or if my programming is proper for this and i must redo all.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Managing Actionscript On Multiple Frames/sections?
Sep 5, 2010First-time poster, I've done mostly basic animation work in Flash (for banner ads), but now I'm on to my first full-Flash web site. Quite a learning experience it has been. The project started fairly simple - navigation bar that jumps to various frames for different sections.
Then the site owner proposed doing a "full frame" layout (elements fill the browser window and resize as needed). I figured out how to do this on a dummy site, but I'm having trouble making it work on the production site. I keep generating compiler errors because certain instances only exist in a particular frame (due to there being different sections/pages).
I'm hoping someone can provide some conceptual guidance on how to do this. I know I can scrap together something that will be acceptable, but I'd like to get some opinions on what is best practice, especially as I will probably end up doing similar stuff in the future.
Things I've tried/considered:
- unique stage resize listeners on each keyframe
- all elements in a single frame with lots of confusing .visible switching

View 3 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Taking And Managing A Screenshot?
Mar 4, 2009The searches that I did on this topic aren't providing me with any answers...that I can understand anyway. =*) Here's the situation.In the past, I did computer-based-training using "a different authoring tool." One thing I discovered I could do with that tool--which really opened up new possibilities for me--was to use that scripting language to create a snapshot of the current window and save that image as an object/class. Then I could access that object, resize it, save it to disk, and load it in later. The result--for my training at least--was a visual bookmark of their location in the training should they have to save and come back later.I would now like to do this with Flash.specificially CS4 and AS3.If anyone can point me in the right location to get started,For clarity, the steps are:
1: Take a snapshot of the current Flash window / Stage. I'm not concerned if the snapshot remains "in Flash" or goes to the Clipboard as long as I can get to it in the next step.
2: Access that snapshot from where-ever it's stored.
3: Process the snapshot and reduce it to a thumbnail, etc.
4: Save it to a file that I can bring back into the .swf at a later point. I'm not real concerned about the format of the file as long as I can bring it back in later. How do I save it? I would love to be able to save it to the user's machine but last I checked
Flash won't do that sort of thing. Can I save it as a file on the server that the .swf is running from using perhaps a PHP call /script / page?
5: And, of course, recall the image to be used at a later point. I already have a pretty good handle on this from past experiments.

Sep 15, 2010This is giving me major headaches! I'm having trouble even describing the problem in words. Basically, I want to be able to manage a core library (coreLib) of Actionscript classes with the following requirements: latest version is checked out when a new project starts. a dev can make changes to the coreLib and then commit them back into the repo as project is written (maybe bug-fixes, added features, etc.) the project contains a 'snapshot' of the coreLib so that, if returned to months later, it (as automatically as possible) has a copy of the coreLib that has guaranteed compatibility with the project.
I tried using externals but this can break compatibility going backwards. I'm currently exporting the coreLib into the project and its VC'd along with the project. I can't figure out how to get the changes back into the repo though, without just copying over the top and losing history.
