ActionScript 3.0 :: Registering Multiple Rotations Of Wheel
Dec 11, 2009
I am making a simulation with a rotation button. When you click the button, and move around the middlepoint of this movieclip, it rotates along with the mouse. What i want to do is control a 'radio tuner' with this rotation. So for example, when the wheel rotates 60 degrees, the radiotuner moves 10 pixels on the x-axis.
The problem i have is as following. When you just say radiotuner.x = rotation, the radiotuner will jump back when you finish the circle (because after 360 deg it jumps back to 0). So what I want to do is register how many times the circle went round.

I 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:

Imagine that you have a lots and lots of the same library item on stage - movieclips - and you want each of them to be clickable. Normally, you would iterate through each of these and register an event listener on MouseEvent.CLICK for each one. It seems to me that if there are large quantities of these items this could be quite inefficient - on memory mostly - to have all these event listeners. I'm trying to figure out if there's a more "central" way to do this, where your main document class just registers once with some kind of central dispatcher using a custom event? Any time ANY of the movieclips are clicked, that fires this custom event and you can just query the event to figure out which clip was clicked.
Each movieclip that is clickable extends an AS class through its linkage, and when clicked, dispatches a custom event. If I'm using the IDE to put a lot of objects on stage, and these objects have linkages to their own custom classes, I don't want to ALSO have to go into the main document class and have it iterate through these objects to register event listeners on each one. I don't really want the document class to have that much knowledge about these objects (loose coupling). I'd rather the objects "communicate" through this mediator and not really worry about knowing more about each other than what you can access through the custom event.

I'm trying to create a Rubik's Cube in Flash & Papervision and i'm really stuck here. I'm up to the point where i can rotate any plane of cubes once, but after that...it's messed up because all local coordinate systems are messy.I dont really know where to go from here, can anybody give any advice on what do do? I'm not looking for 'read about transformation matrices', i know i should (and i am doing that), but i'm not really sure what to look for.My idea is that, after each rotation, i should fix each coordinate system of each cube again, but i have no idea how. Any hints on what i want to achieve (in words)

I've hit a wall trying to get this to work: - I've created a movie clip that contains 14 layers, each layer is a 3D Y-rotation using a motion tween on a movieclip object (just a solid rectangle) - Trying to emulate a venetian blind transition effect When I put this "mask" movie clip on my timeline, it won't allow me to use this as a mask!! - I tried setting up the mask in AS3 as well, using imgMC.mask = maskMC; Does Flash allow this? Can I use 3D motion tweens as masks? it doesn't seem to allow it. I was hoping maybe I missed something.

The properties window allows you to set a number of rotations for the tween to go through. Is there a similar thing for 3d rotations? Doesn't feel right that you should always enter the rotation in frame by frame (sometimes yes, but not every time).

I am starting out on Molehill and am having a lot of problems grasping Matrix3D. My first problem is how to manage a Matrix3D that describes a single model's orientation.
I use Matrix3D.appendRotation() to do this. But depending on the order I append in I get a different result (obviously, since I am rotating one at a time in the global space). I know this is a common problem, I have run into it with 3d software modeling. But this time, I have to fix it programtically.
[Code]...
Thing is, this seems rather clunky. Especially since the angle of rotation for a Vector3D should be the fourth (w) value. More importantly, Matrix3D already appears to have a lookAt() method. I don't get it yet... please someone save me from hours of trial and error!

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.

I 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?

var theKey:String = String.fromCharCode(e.charCode); //the key code the was pressed

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;

The only thing I have on the stage/library is a circle named 'ball_mc' width origin in the center.

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?

I'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.

I'm not really sure why, but whenever I press and hold any of the arrow keys(haven't tested other keys). My instance called player has it's x coordinate increased by 5 as my code indicates, but while holding down any of the arrow keys there is a split second pause before the continued movement of my player instance. I'm using CS5.5, AS3.0.

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 changed them all to mouse events (I was told mouse events would still work on an iPad) and without doing anything else (just changing them to mouse events) the app started to function in testing. But then I transferred it to my iPad and it didn't work. At all. It didn't do anything.

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]

I 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.

I 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).
