I'm making a game where you keep a ball in the air by clicking on it, but the mouseevent doesn't always register.
PHP Code:
var debug:Sprite = new Sprite();
var sine:Number = 0;
var cosine:Number = 0;
var hypotenuse:Number = 0;
[code]....
The only thing I have on the stage/library is a circle named 'ball_mc' width origin in the center.
I have th following code below. When the monster is clicked I would like to remove it but the MouseEvent.Click event never fires? I'm using flash cs4.
import fl.motion.Animator;import fl.motion.MotionEvent;var this_xml:XML = <Motion duration="30" xmlns="fl.motion.*" xmlns:geom="flash.geom.*" xmlns:filters="flash.filters.*"> <source> [code].......
I am currently building an application for children teaching them about the environment.I have a login and register function working for it allowing teachers to register first and then they would be provided with the option to register a required amount of children.how to go about registering multiple new users at the same time?
View 2 RepliesIn a class file I have a button (GameButton) which I want to all the instances act the same. I found this code in a tutorial but when I run it I get the error: "Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant:MouseEvent." And then it names 2 of my public functions. Here's all the code in my class file:

I'm trying to import the following script, however I receive this error... 1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: MouseEvent.

I have several stage event handlers to enable mouseovers over several dynamically generated moviecilps on the stage that then change their alpha to indicate the mouse is over that particular mc... fairly trivial (mcOver handler). Additionally, I also want to know what MC is clicked, so I update a public variable (public var activemc:Number) with the ID of the dynamic movieclip when the mouse is over it (using a hitTest to check, which is why the EventListener is added to stage and not to the MC), which is checked in the mcClicked handler:This is in the constructor:
//stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, startDrawing);
//stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, stopDrawing);
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, mcOver);[code]....
However, the mouseover behaviour (alpha 0 when over, alpha 1 when out) stops working as soon as I click on any movieclip on the stage, and the mcClicked ID checking (below) stops working completely. I don't know if this is to do with focus:
private function mcClicked(event:MouseEvent):void {
myTextField.text = String(activemc); // activemc is a public var:Number with the movieclip //ID
}
I then tried adding the event handler for the stage mouse_move again and this gets the mouseover working again but only for 1 more click, after which it stops again:
private function mcClicked(event:MouseEvent):void {
myTextField.text = String(activemc); // activemc is a public var:Number with the movieclip //ID
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, mcOver);
I have a MovieClip (call it base_mc) which is under a bunch of other MovieClips (call them subclips). The MovieClips on top are all mouseEnabled with MOUSE_OVER, CLICK, etc, event handlers. I want to capture the event of MOUSE_OVER (or ROLL_OVER) on the base_mc as well. Any time I am over one of the subclips I am also over the base_mc clip. How can I capture this event?
View 2 RepliesI'd like to know what is the difference between MouseEvent.CLICK & MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN. Because when i use MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN for a button to set full-screen view its doesn't work, instead of this MouseEvent.CLICK works. So what was the reason.
View 3 RepliesI'm making a button for the first time, and I wanted to use a full click to drive it. However, when I use addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClickHandler); nothing happens when I click on it. When I use (with the rest of the code being identical) addEventListener(MouseEvent. MOUSE_ down, onClickHandler); it works like a charm.
View 6 RepliesWhat is the difference between MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP and MouseEvent.CLICK? Why should I use one of these over the other?
Code:myButton_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, fNavigate, false, 0, true);
myButton_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fNavigate, false, 0, true);
I have a MOUSE_DOWN handler that creates a CLICK event listener on a child object. Naturally, as soon as you release the mouse button, if you happen to be over the child object, the CLICK event fires.I was disappointed to discover that event.stopImmediatePropagation doesn't interrupt the CLICK event from registering the MOUSE_DOWN as part of its detection cycle. It makes sense that it doesn't but still... disappointing.A MouseEvent.CLICK consists of detecting a MOUSE_DOWN on the object and then if it's followed by a MOUSE_UP without leaving the object, he event fires. I had hoped that by cancelling the MOUSE_DOWN event, it would clear that out of the CLICK buffer, but no such potatoes, alas.This could all be handled with a flag and a couple more MOUSE_UP and MOUSE_DOWN handlers, but dang, smacks of effort
View 2 RepliesI have the following:
rwBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, audioOver);
function audioOver(e:MouseEvent):void
{
var thisClip:MovieClip = e.relatedObject;
thisClip.alpha = 0;
}
I would like to change the alpha of the clip that is being rolled over. I don't know how to target the clip that is being rolled over. How do I do that?
I'm creating on Flash CS5 an animation of navigation buttons. On AS3 I have this code:
[Code]....
When compiling there are 3 error messages which say the same: "Error 1046: Type wasn't found or was not a compile-time constant: MouseEvent." (Look out, it refers to those where are written on the 'function' part. Not to the 'addEventListener' ones)
I tried out with AS2.0 but it's impossible to be read. Now in the first line you can read "stop();", this is an instruction to stop the animation (slide) of the navigation buttons once appeared on Stage. My teacher has the same code (and the same version of Flash CS5 as mine) and it can run with no problems. Supposedly this is a basic code which can be compiled very well. This is not my case, though. Is there something wrong with my code? Do I have write on more specific codes to be run?
So i know that the flash object needs to have focus in order for the key event to fire, but i am having an issue where i click a button in the flash window and the events stop firing.The button activates a box2d world and i don't know if that has anything to do with it. but as soon as i hit the start button, the key events no longer seem active until i click again.
View 3 RepliesI am trying to get a keyboard input why my game is playing. So here is my code below. Thing is, only certain keys are coming up in the trace. So if I press the a key, nothing happens. If press the d key, I get the trace. Only a handful of the keys are registering... why?
Code:
function PowerUps(e:KeyboardEvent):void{
var holdout = getTimer();
var theKey:String = String.fromCharCode(e.charCode); //the key code the was pressed

i have a button on the stage (added manually) and its an instance of BtnStart called starter. but for some reason i cannot access this in the document class i.e. in the constructor (mainly because its not registered at that point). how can i use a stage button in the document class constructor?
View 2 RepliesI'm using very basic code to move an object around the stage using keys on the keyboard (W,A,S,D). However, I have noticed at times when the CPU hiccups, flash does not register that a key was released and in turn my object keeps moving in a direction without any keys pressed. The only way to stop the object from moving is to press the key corresponding to the direction the object is moving.

A vendor had built courses for us a few years ago. There are 5 modules. The courses are SCORM and are tracked in the LMS from url...We recently had 60 students sign up for a course, but they are not getting completion tracking for 4 of the 5 modules. The students are using IE7 and Flash Player 9. complete works for the module where the completion code is send from an HTML page. The completion does not work from any of pages where the completion is sent from Flash. The flash files were coded with AS2, here is the code on the "Finish Button":[code]

I have a navigation that contains approx 8 movieclips that are actually acting as buttons but I'm having trouble getting them to work.I am currently testing 2 buttons/mcs at the moment. Which are named and have the script on the actions layer. The problem is, that when either button is pressed, it is registering both buttons as being pressed.[code]
View 3 RepliesI really don't know half of what I'm doing when it comes to Action Script 3. Through a lot of trial and error, I finally have my menu with submenus displaying properly, but just not functioning the way that I have intended. The submenu items appear when a mouse over registers on the mainmenu item. The submenu mouse rollovers are registering correctly because the right content is displayed and the alpha channel changes are registering. The problem is with the mouse clicks for the submenu items. I don't understand why but a mouse click on a submenu button is registering as a click on the mainmenu item, not the submenu item. Could someone please explain to me why the rollover function is working and not the mouse click, and what I need to do to fix my code? I hate to admit it, but I am really clueless here.And here is the relevant part of my code:
SWFAddress.addEventListener(SWFAddressEvent.CHANGE, SWFAddress_changed);
menu1.alpha = 0.5;
menu1.buttonMode = true;

I'm working on creating a simple MCV application, in order to understand MVC better. The problem I'm having is registering event listeners. The way I see MVC is that the view dispatches events, the controller listens for these events and acts on them, either updating the model or amending the view. So in my MVC app I have a controller which during initialisation should register all the events that are dispatched by the view. This is my controller:
[Code]...
Now is this the way to do this, and why is it that my controller is not registering the event handlers?
I am programming a little software prototype as Flash/Actionscript3 application. Currently I registered some Events on stage - but it is cumbersome since stopPropoagation() needs to be used all the time. As Example: I am having a element shown via mouseclick would and a event for closing the menu on stage. Without using stopPropagation, the menu opens and closes again immediately. The hide-function is registered on some objects so just checking if target= stage would not do it, unfortunately.
View 2 RepliesI had a problem with my hitTestObject collision detection a couple of days ago which has since been fixed (How can I solve my hitTestObject Collision Null Object Ref Error) with the help of you folks. My problem now is as such: When my "enemy.hit" comes into contact with "player.hit" it registers as a hit - this is good. When my "building.collide" comes into contact with "player.hit" it registers as a hit - this is good.
However, when my "building.collide" comes into contact with my "enemy.hit" it does not register, but sometimes it does register even though the only enemy on-screen is many pixels away from it - as if either the building or enemy "hitBox" is somewhere other than directly on the graphic(MovieClip in this case).

I have built an application in Flash 8 (as2) it has key listeners in it which work when run from Flash 8.When I open the application in CS3 and run it from there the key listeners no longer work. On testing I found that it only registers when pressing w u d g x and the numbers.
View 0 RepliesI have some code where there are 3 objects on the screen and i want it to highlight them in orange when you mouse over them, and when you click on one to select it, it highlights it in yellow.
to do this, im registering a roll_over, roll_out, and click event but for some reason it seems like all i am getting is the roll_over event.
Something strange is that in the code below i only ever seem to get roll_over events but if i only register the click event instead of all 3, i get the click event. It seems like the 3 events are somehow conflicting or something :/
You can also see an example of what im talking about at:
