ActionScript 3.0 :: Moving Character - Unable To Use "Key" To Identify A Pressed Key

Aug 2, 2011

So I'm new to Flash, and I've found most people make player controlled characters in Flash move through

[Code]...

Since these are ActionScript 2.0 source codes, I think ActionScript 3.0 won't let me use "Key" to identify a pressed key.

Flex :: Find Out The Character Pressed Key In Languages?

Dec 27, 2010

I can't use charCode, or keyCode in KeyboardEvent to find out the character pressed, because even if I change the keyboard layout, charCode and keyCode are not change (if press the same key).So, how to find the presssed character, following to the current keyboard layout?

The charCode property is the numeric value of that key in the current character set (the default character set is UTF-8, which supports ASCII).is not correct.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Key.isDown Function - Moving Character

Jan 3, 2010

I have a character with multiple animations by way of movieclips, and I'm trying to have it move using the Key.isDown function. Now, my character is moving correctly, but when the key is released, the animation keeps playing. I tried adding a stop command at the end of the walkcycle animation, but that just causes the character to stay frozen on the last frame of the cycle.

Here is the ActionScript Code:
onClipEvent(load) {
var direction = "left";
var speed = 2;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash - How To Flip 2D Character When Moving

Mar 15, 2011

I have a mc called boy and I have an instance of that mc called boy_mc. I have figured out how to make his position change on the stage, but I cannot figure out how to do some other things.

Here is the code that I have so far:
import flash.events.KeyboardEvent;
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, keyPressed);
function keyPressed(evt:KeyboardEvent):void{
switch(evt.keyCode) {
[Code] .....

I am trying to learn 3 things.

1. How do I make him be facing left when I push left and facing right when I push to right?
2. How to I restrict him to a certain area of the stage? I am going to have some buildings on the top and I don't want him to be able to walk past the street level. So basically I don't want him to be able to go off the stage or up some to be determined height.
3. When he walks up and touches a door on my stage, I want to jump to another place in the timeline.

Flash / AS3 Gaming - Character Moving Along Curved Terrain

Dec 3, 2011

I'm trying to create simple 2D action game, something similar to well known Fancy Pants Adventures :) I've been looking for answer for more than week and all I've found is [URL] which not answers the question. (I've found also moving on platforms that are rotated but that's not I'm looking for). I have also found great (and free!) flash game engine - CitrusEngine which I'm currently using, but, it doesn't provide moving hero along curved terrain. How to make hero moving along curved terrain like this one: [URL]. There are plenty of games like this (for ex. Fancy Pants or Robot Unicorn Attack) where main character moves along the curved terrain but I can't find answer how can I do that.

I have a function on root:

this.nextFrame();[code]....

This causes a mc to fade in and out on rollover/rollout. But what I wanna make is a box that fades in when pressed on the button and fade out when pressed for the second time. But if I say

on (press){
_root.fade = true;
}

the mc fades in, but I cant do another on (press) to fade out. Is this too confusing?

ActionScript 1/2 :: Keys Pressed Or Not Pressed?

Dec 6, 2010

I am struggling a bit with keys on the keyboards controlling a movieclip to happen.Ive got a person moving when pressing right and left, and a movieclip with three frames: First frame is a movieclip with the person standing still, looking bored. The second frame is the person moving right, and the third frame is the person moving left.This is the code that Ive inserted into the persons actions on scene1:

if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {_x += speed;this.gotoAndStop(2);_xscale = +scale;} 
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {_x -= speed;this.gotoAndStop(3);_xscale = -scale;}
 
this code works alright accept that when the keys are not pressed it doesnt stand still, the legs are still moving, so I tried to include this code aswell:

if (!Key.isDown(KEY.RIGHT)) [code]....this makes the person standing still when not pressed but not moving the legs when turning right and left.
