I'm making a program that draws a grid of boxes and the color of the box must be different to those adjacent to the box. My code compares the current box's color to those to the left and top. If any of them matches, it picks another random number (as the color). For the tiles on the first row/column, I make my grid's array indexes with negative numbers -1 so that it will not match.
What I have:
private function fillArray():void {
grid = new Array();
grid[-1] = new Array(-1,-1,-1,-1,-1); //paddles the grid[-1][0 to 4] with -1
for (var i = 0; i < HEIGHT; i++) {

i have a snake game, that after time loads sprites in an array to make the snake grow. Just wondering how i would go about adding a hit so when the head of the snake hits the body something happens. Below is the full document class code.

I was wondering what do the AS3 experts would do to detect a color with the webcam (red) and draw a sprite on those color boundaries.

View 5 RepliesIts been many years since I've used flash and I was just wondering what the easiest way to do collision detection was now. I know that there was some hit test bounding box stuff present earlier but I don't know the capabilities of flash cs4 and the advances that have been made. Google searches have yielded things like complex pixel-perfect collision detection but not a lot seems to have been written about CS4 yet.

I have an image and I want to add "hot spots" so when the user rolls over the area they get 3-4 boxes that pop up to display pictures or what ever. So far I can't figure out how to change th hit area once its expanded so the hit area would be small then expand with the boxes, then rolling outside the picture areas it would close.

View 1 RepliesWhat i need to do is, In Flash (FlashMX, CS3 or CS4) I need to place 2 combo boxes. by default the 1st one will be enabled and the 2nd will be disabled. First combo box will have country names and the 2nd will have state names. when a user selects the country name from the 1st combo box, the 2nd shuld then get enabled. and when a user selects the state from the 2nd combo box, there will be button next to it for clicking. on clicking the button, the values in each combo box shuld be selected and the user will be taken to a specific URL which will have the contents on current selected state in the current selected country.
View 2 RepliesI am trying to use boxes for hit collision. I want to be precise with the collision so I was thinking about making multiple small boxes and checking for collision that way. This maybe a stupid idea or a smart one. If I do this way will that affect the performance of the game even though the boxes are invisible and wont be drawn on the stage.
map out the object starting from its center outward. Like right, left, top and bottom. I am creating a flying shooter so the plane has a long wing span. I could also map out the wing span and tail and so on.

1- i have a circular menu, with a zoom effect when you hover on it, with the home button in the center, when you click the home button you load the page then reload the scene 1 ( menu idle ).If i put nothing on the button itself on the scene 1, before the zoom effect, i need to move out of the button to trigger the other scritp there that detect the rollover and start the zoom in.i want to have a special behavior for the home button on the idle state of the menu ( scene 1 ) , When you click the home button from anywhere else, you load back the page, then because the mouse is already on the home button, i want flash to do nothing, but at the second you start to move the mouse again ( remember you are still on the home button) i want it to start teh zoom effect again, not before.
Right now, it is either no zoom effect as soon the mouse is on top of it, or imediatly zoom in with the rollover....And i know it is possible with a very simple command, but i forgot it... i did it before.2- for the same menu, i will have a sub-menu unfolding when you click a certain button, that sub-menu is outside the main menu detection zone. Is it possible to make a shape, turn the alpha at 0, put it under the sub-menu, and use it as detection zone
With AS, can I trace that user hasn't been operating on the computer for a while, say 5 miniutes, and then do something? theoretically speaking, to detect that there is no mouse or keyboard event for certain a period of time, and then do something~~ just like screensaver of Widows~
