ActionScript 3.0 :: Random Movement In X Position?
Nov 13, 2011
I wanted to built an enemy that is able to move on stage randomly in xposition and perhaps able to detect my character within the detectable zone and chase after me.. but currently I just wanted to make the enemy move randomly in x-position for starter.
It is my first time making and enemy with AI, but I'm just wasn't sure where to begin, I have used a fairy easy script to animated the movieclip in the beginning but got stucks whenever it reaches 960 or below 0 of the stage
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,initGames);
function initGames(e:Event):void{
moveEnemy();
}

I've run into a new problem, this time with positioning. I've narrowed down the line that's causing it--"block.y = block.y + block.height;" in SetOfBlocks.shiftDown. When I take it out, no problem. But with it in, instead of just dropping each block down by a block height, the affected blocks sometimes move up, and also often move about randomly within the X axis--although their new positions always keep them lined up with the 'grid', which is to say, within multiples of the block height and widths.

I'm having a problem with a little movement script I wrote for a MC I have. I believe it either has to do with variable scoping, or with a coordinate system problem. (If I change the xPos and yPos in the onClipEvent (load) to 0,0...then the MC starts in the middle of the field (MC) I'm trying to move it inside of.) Basically...the ActionScript you see below is a part of the "Player" MC...who is supposed to move around a "field" MC I have.
I was assuming setting xPos and yPos to 0 would have the Player MC starting at the very top left of the entire screen...which instead it starts in the middle of the "field" MC.) Also - When I press the different arrow keys...the Player MC jumps around to different locations...but once at the new location the movement (in a single direction) works okay.

I have a movieclip instance named "ground" i have it set up so that the ground moves constantly to the left as a scrolling BG. what I want is that when the user presses the "space" button, the ground moves down then back up in a a parabolic path. and it does. but I want the movieclip to stop moving vertically(make dy equal to zero) when it returns to its original y position. how can this be achieved?
Code:
package{
import flash.display.*;

i've applied the following script to a movieclip to change its 'y' coordinate randomly at run time and it works fine but i'm also trying to control the maximum 'top' and maximum bottom 'y' movement for which the value should be: top = 40 and bottom = 400. so it only displays randomly between 40 to 400 'y' coordinate. could you tell me how can i implement this in the following script?
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
_x -= 4;
if (_x<=-2247) {

Ive got a code to move a MC on the main stage together with the mouse, in the the X axis,. difficult to explain. But now the client wants that this MC movement works only when the Y position of the mouse is over the 300 px. I thought I need a hit test or something elese. Please help. Here is the whole code.

I've been trying to simply get random movement on a MC on my stage.
Most of the tutorials I come across deliver jittery motion, not smooth eased motion.
Also, I'm trying this script found here: [URL]
The random motion looks great! .... but I can't stop the MC from moving to the top left of my stage. The script isn't setup to restrict the motion within a given area on the stage. I tried modifying it, got nowhere!

I have an IK chain of 3 dots. I would like to put random movement on one of the dots 'pt1' so that is randomly bounces around my screen while the other 2 dots follow - something like a snake. However when I put this code on 'pt1' which is a movie clip by the way it simply will not work.
ActionScript Code:
onClipEvent(load){
xDir=1;
yDir=1;[code].........

I am looking at the Kirupa code for random movement (Random movement in Flash MX), and I am trying to figure out if I can limit the movement to the shape of an oval.
I want to do an overhead shot of a bunch of little people swiming in an oval swimming pool.

I'm trying to achieve random motion of my movie clips limited from stage left to stage right. I've read the following tutorials:
[URL]
both are helpful. However, I don't want mouse position to affect anything (as it does in the 'continuous movement' tutorial). The 'random motion' code is pretty close...if I just knew what part of the code to modify to limit motion from left to right.

i want to make a movement. An object has to come from behind an object and go back again.The interval between each time the object appears has to be random.i was trting to maken something with the setTimer() function, and a random. The random gives a var.This var i would use as time for the object appears in combination with the setTimer().i can't come up with a decent code that would work.Where do i need to define the start vars, adn where do i define the random script.

My knowledge of actionscript is basic, at best. I'm trying to make some animations move randomly by following a very helpful tutorial posted on this site [URL].. And everything was going so well until I tried to use my own initiative to limit the width and height of the movement. This is when I realised that I haven't got a clue what I am doing!

I'm trying to move a series of dots (mc used as linkage: "Dot") within a frame to random targets, with the movement activated by onRollOver. This part I have working fine. The part I'm having difficulty with is getting the objects to have target coordinates to move randomly, except rounded to the nearest 12 pixels. Here's the relevant code:
Code:
minx = 120;
maxx = 450;
miny = 20;

I'd like a movie clip to randomly move along the x axis whenever the mouse is clicked by using actionscript 3.0.
The movie clip is a city skyline I have in the background.
I can get it to sort of move when a mouse is clicked with this code
var skylineTween:Tween=new Tween(skyline_mc,"x", Regular.easeInOut, Math.random(),85,3,true);

Re: Random Movement in Flash MX
I am currently reading through the actionscript dictionary, trying to make head or tail of this script. Basically, I'm hoping to modify this script to work contained within a movieclip (as opposed to directly at _root / level_0).

I have the following clipEvent on a movieclip called square:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
xmove = (xpos-this._x)/5;
this._x += xmove;
}
And the following framecode in the same keyframe as square:
_root.square.xpos = Math.round(Math.random()*550);
Now I want to use this information in a function so I can control more than just one clip.
