ActionScript 3.0 :: Random Appearance Of Object?

Nov 5, 2010

I am working on a little game just for fun, the game will involve randomly appearing objects which the player then will tap/click to gain score.My problem is to get the object to appear at several random places on the stage practicaly the same time.I tried a few different ways to get it to work with the math.random function but I am not getting closer at allI assume most of you here are more experienced at this than I am so if you have the time

ActionScript 2.0 :: Actions Before Random Appearance?

Nov 23, 2002

In my game, the user clicks on and shoots targets that randomly appear. Well, that part is solid. However, I want the targets to do a little animation before they appear (it's pretty simple):1. Look left, then right (all I really want to do is flip the target horizontally one way, then the other - it's deliberately that amateur)2. After the target 'looks' left and right, I want it to disappear by ducking off the bottom of the stage.3. At this point, it proceeds to randomly appear.So, any great ideas on how to integrate this into my random appearance code, or do I have to start messing with motion tweens and manual animation (bleh)?

Xml :: Get Last Appearance Of A Node?

Apr 1, 2012

Given

<nodeList>
<crazyNode>Data to be overwrited</crazyNode>
<simpleNode>Normal data</simpleNode>
<crazyNode>Actual data</crazyNode>[code]......

I want to get the last crazyNode (the one which contains Actual data).I know how to access the first node, for example:

nodeList.crazyNode[0]

And I guess a solution would be

nodeList.crazyNode[nodeList.crazyNode.length() - 1]

But for some reason I don't like doing that, too verbose and maybe there's a method more elegant.

Initial Appearance Of FLVPlayback?

May 29, 2009

I'm using FLVPlayback to display a flv in a swf embedded in html. Autoplay = false, wmode = transparent / windowless. I've got it working (not yet set up the way I'd like, but that's another issue), but the way the flv displays when the page loads is a problem. The controls skin is clearly visible, but the movie frame displays as a white box on a white page, barely visible except for a faint outline.
 
I guess the white screen simply represents the first frame of the flv. Ideally I'd like to see either a black box or the first frame with meaningful content. Is there any way (say with ActionScript) to advance and stop the flv to a particular frame? Or is there some other way to not see a white box here?
 
See attached screen grab detail. If it helps, here's my html.

ActionScript 2.0 :: FLV Controller And Delayed Button Appearance

May 20, 2010

I'm having trouble with a controller I'm using with an FLV. I am a newbie when it comes to actionscripting. I have a project I'm working on that contains a 86:50 minute FLV and towards the end I will have a separate button appear to click on. The code I am implementing was from a different project that utilized the same functions but with a 4:49 minute FLV. I have an example of this at [URL]. As you can see the controller is set up for the 4:49 minute FLV and when the timer gets to 5:00 minutes that button comes in. I need to make the FLV play the whole way through and then at a specific point have the button appear and I can't seem to do it. Below is the only code I can see that pertains to this section.

scrub.onPress = function(){
scrub.startDrag(false, -365, scrub._y, 49, scrub._y);
dragging = "true";
}scrub.onRelease = function(){
var newNum:Number = (scrub._x - -365) * .7625;
mainVid.seek(newNum);
scrub.stopDrag();
dragging = "false";
[Code] .....

ActionScript 3.0 :: Randomizing Appearance Of MovieClips - X And Y Positions

Jan 9, 2012

I'm having an issue using randomizing the appearance of movie clips using Math.random. I have a movie clip in the library, which is 85 frames long but it begins and ends with 15 blank key frames. In other words, it has 2 layers, one for action script and one for graphics which are movie clips too, the AS layer is 85 frames long while the art layer is shorter and begins on frame 16.

I began by putting the movie clip on the stage, without any code on the main timeline, with some code on the movie clip's timeline -
this.x = Math.random()*stage.stageWidth;
this.y = Math.random()*stage.stageHeight;

In this case, tested the movie, the swf played just what I wanted, the movie clip "appears" randomely on the stage, plays, disappears, and reappears, and so on and so forth.

I then gave the movie clip on the stage an instance name of b_mc, removed the code in its timeline, and put it on the main timeline, as such -
b_mc.x = Math.random()*stage.stageWidth;
b_mc.y = Math.random()*stage.stageHeight;

In this case, the movie clip does NOT appear randomly on the stage when the swf is tested, rather, it appears at the same position, appearing and disappearing over and over as planned, but in the same place - NOT as planned.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loader Preventing Appearance Of Pointer Cursor?

Mar 15, 2012

I have two SWFs, the first is a wrapper SWF with a loading bar that fills up as the second SWF is loaded via myLoader.load(second.swf);. When testing both the second SWF and the wrapper SWF in the IDE they work perfectly. However, once in a browser the display children in the second SWF no longer cause the mouse to display a pointer curser when the mouse is over a clickable object.

This is in Safari 5.1 and FireFox on OSX 10.7.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Communication - Controlling The Appearance Of A Radio Button After It's Selected

Feb 13, 2012

I've got a relatively simple problem with controlling the appearance of a radio button after it's selected. I'm using Flash CS5.5 and AS2. I've got a radio button set up as a two-frame mc, the first frame labeled "on", the second "off". When put on the stage with this code on it, it functions properly:

onClipEvent (load) {
answer = false;
}

Whenever I add additional code to the radio button mc (in this instance, telling an invisible mc in the same frame to gotoAndStop (2)), the radio button stops changing appearance. I've been using the syntax

on (press) {
tellTarget ("_root.OtherMC.OtherMC_2") {
gotoAndStop (2);

Flash :: Changing The Appearance Of A Single Thumbnail In TileList Component?

Sep 22, 2010

I'm trying to create a listing of thumbnails using the TileList component, and so far it's working great. Is there a way to change the appearance of a single ImageCell within the component.I'm bringing in the thumbnail data as XML, and I have an attribute for whether it's a "new" image or not. I would like it to display a small badge over the individual thumbnail in my application.

I should note that I made a subclass of the ImageCell class (implementing ICellRenderer) to set my custom skins, but when I tried adding conditional code here (checking for the "new" parameter I set, It simply doesn't work (no error messages).
