ActionScript 3.0 :: Setting Limits On And Resetting A Counting System?
Mar 12, 2012
So I'm making a simple counter to be used to keep a tally of 10 different categories, plus a total tally of all 10 categories combined. there are 10 buttons and 11 dynamic text fields. When each button is clicked, it will add to the text field that relates to it, plus add to the "total score" tally. I've got all of the buttons working correctly as of now.
However, I would like to set a limit on the total tally at 100 and am unsure how to do so right now.
I also have not been able to program a reset button correctly. I can make the text boxes revert back to 0, but it seems flash is still keeping the total tally because when I start counting again, the scores start where they left off.

What I'm trying to do:
1) Have a textfield that counts from 1 to 315
2) Once the value of the textfield reaches 315, pause for 2 seconds, and loop.
3) Do this until 15 seconds have passed, then stop.
What I've done so far to try and get this to work:On frame 1, I set up a little script like so:[code]The problem is, once it loops back to frame 1, my textfield that is being displayed continues to display 315, it won't display the counter going from 1 to 315. EVEN THOUGH IF I TRACE IT, you can see the script is working in the background just fine counting from 1 to 315 3 more times before 15 seconds is reached.Any idea why my textfield would be displaying the end value and not displaying the start (counter) value as it should?

hey I have a large map in an mc and navigation buttons to control the map.
2 questions:
1.Does anyone know how to set limits on this? my image is w2200 h2980? stage is 1000w x 740h I am using code like this? Th buttons are either 1 or a 0 so i think the limit function needs to be in this section.
2. does anyone know how to adjust the script for zoom so that the image will zoom in n out without refocusing on a specific point. my large map move to a specific location as it zooms. it would be cooler if the the map zoomed in and out based on current location.

I've got flash animation down pretty well. I'm working on a photojournal system, based on the kirupa.com photo gallery tutorial, and I'm working on customizing it. Part of this being a image count number(dynamictext named 'viewed') that changes each time the button's pushed forward or backward, but is limited to the number of photos...I'm currently at this point:for my back button I have this:
on(release){
if(_root.viewed < 60){
_root.viewed--
}
}
and for my forward button I have this:
on(release){
if(_root.viewed < 60){
_root.viewed++
}
}
Now the problem is that well, the backbutton goes into negatives once it gets down to zero, and the forward button stops at 60... but the gallery loops, it goes from the last image to the first when you go forward and vice versa going back ward, is there anyway I can get this to go 0 to 60 backward and forward with AS?

I have multiple applications, and need to set different connection limits for each of them - e.g., 10, 35, etc.I'm only concerned with limiting RTMP connections, and not using Apache or http streaming.

I need to set limits when generating a random number and this (code below) is just a temporary fix until I can set this limit dynamically.
The number is set to be between (0-4) by running an IF statement which sets a fixed upper limit. This works but I need the limit to update dynamically. My main goal is to use the numChildren property of an XMLList object (passed as argument) to set the maximum limit since the random number will be used by a loader when loading an image from this same XMLList.
Currently there are only 5 images in the XML file so this IF statement works. I would like to have the maximum limit update dynamically when the XML file has images added or subtracted to/from it.

I have a row of thumbnails (populated from an XML list). If you press the arrow, the thumbnails will scroll from the right or left. What I can't figure out is how to set a limit because right now if you continue to press the right or left arrow, the thumbnails will scroll off the stage.

I am making my very first AS3 game, and though it's quite simple I'm having trouble setting up a scoring system. The concept of the game is simple. Objects appear on the screen, clicking the objects adds points. For this project I am working with 3 AS files, a Document class and two movieclip class files. I would also like to track how many objects have been added to the stage in addition to the score which should track how many objects have been clicked. Here is my Doc Class

I'm trying to play around using SmartFox Server in AS3. I've created a simple test swf that works from the Flash IDE, but when I publish and try to run the swf file I get the socket error that swfs with file-system can't use sockets. Is there a way to get a socket server going that will allow local swfs to use sockets?

I created a timer with found tutorials and the Flash help files and everything works fine. My timer counts up from 000.000,0 to 999.000,0. Now I would like to also be able to do the same, but counting down from 999.000,0 to 000.000,0
Easy enough I thought, but now . how to make some modifications in my code to count down.
My code for counting up is the follow:
Code: Select allvar hours:Number = 0;
var seconds:Number = 0;
var minutes:Number = 0;
var pauseTime:Number = 0;

I got a textfile who i am reading on a serverside script and passing it as a script to my client side as3 code. The problem is that i am using characters like ä,ö,ü,ß and this isn't well displayed. I tried System.useCodePage but the compiler complains about : 1120: Access of undefined property 'System'. It doesnt matter if I tried this on the first line of the 'Action' in the first scene or in the first line of the first .as file i am loading. (btw i am only working with .as file and not in the timeline). When i am importing flash.System.* the compiler complains he dont know useCodePage.

I'm using a very wide object in Flash CS3, and I didn't have a problem with the pasteboard automatically expanding to contain it in Flash 8 Pro, but apparently CS3 has limits as to how far it'll let the pasteboard expand, -2880 px to 3620 px or thereabouts. This means I have to move my object off of x:0 y:0 to work with it. This won't kill me, but it does seem to be a step down from Flash 8. Anyone have any news on why this change was made, and if there's any way to correct it?

I am doing an animation with a movie clip that needs to follow the mouse on the Y axis only smoothly and needs to stay inside a fixed dimension. (e.g. the mc could moves 200px left or 200px right maximum) And I want it to stop smoothly too when it reach the limits.

ive seen in a few places were pressing a button drops down a menu, which extends outside the size of the flash movie. So that it goes over whatever text is actually underneath the movie. Ive tried to do the same by just making the menu go below the movie, but that just gets cut off

If we have a Bitamp with more than 16777216 pixels (or one side larger than 8191 px) Flash 10 doesn't show it (Flash 9 and earlier has smaller limits even).One solution to this is to use scrollRect to limit the size displayed.OK, that works.
But Flash 10 has another problem, if we use any 3D property (rotationX, z, etc), flash transforms your MC in bitmap, so we can reach the above limit even when we are not working with bitmaps...A bigger problem is that although our MC could be really small (at least less than 16777216 pixels), when we apply a 3D transform like rotationX, the displayed MC can grows enough to reach the limit. And... we can't use scrollRect with 3D MC. But we have a trick here too, there are two ways to use scrollRect with 3D:
1. Create a 2D parent, then create the 3D displayObject inside of that parent.
2. Set cacheAsBitmap to true for the 2D parent.
3. Create a grandparent container to hold the first two items.
4. Set cacheAsBitmap to true for the grandparent container.
5. Apply scrollRect to the grandparent container.
These methods are really differents, with the second I couldn't use scrollRect to avoid reaching the bitmap limit. I think that's because in the second we apply scrollRect to the parent and 3D to the child, so nothing breakes our child from growing.With the firs method we apply scrollRect to the child, and the 3D property to the parent.
Code:
var p: Sprite = new Sprite();
var c: Sprite = new Sprite();
p.addChild(c);

I am making a SUDOKU generator(ActionScript2.0), which would (for now) generate the full and correct sudoku table. To do that I need to use recursive functions for calculating all the possible values. The problem is that when I try to run my program I get this error :
Code:
256 levels of recursion were exceeded in one action list.
This is probably an infinite loop.
Further execution of actions has been disabled in this movie.Is it possible to somehow work around this limitation?

Is it possible to make this a mask? The system contains one movieclip of a circle called ball, also a class called ball and a class called particle. I want the particle system movieclips to display an image...I'm sure this is possible...just have not been able to find a way. A little backround, I'm a completely selftaught n00b when it comes to AS3, but I'm grasping it fairly well... the tutorial is on this website, called A Simple Particle System Using Actionscript 3.

Im using the code below to stop a page being moved past certain points when at 25% zoom on my page. This works perfectly however I have 50%, 75% and 100% zoom aswell. How would I alter this code so the drag limits can be different for each level of zoom.The code im using just now is:
pages.onMouseDown = function () {
// check if page is zoomed
if (pages._xscale != 25) {

I often need to divide quantities in recipes. Normally, this is straightforward: I have an array of items to divide and a total, so I can do something like
[Code]...
However, this time I have been handed a curve ball: some of the items have a maximum amount they can be. For example, item A has a maximum amount of .25, item B is maximum of 1, the other items have no limits. So if the total amount is 3, and I am dividing it by 3 items I can't simply set each one's amount to 1 (as I normally would, as the code above does). I need to set the amount of A to .25 so there is still the .75 "left over" that I now need to apply evenly to the remaining items.
So that means the other 2 items B and C would be 1.375 each -- but, as I said above B also has a limit (of 1), so B would be 1 and C (no limits) would get the whole .75 remainder, and be 1.75. So A=.25, B= 1, C=1.75 for the total of 3. My question is, even conceptually, how would I approach a problem such as this in AS?

I'm been working on a large-scale Flash game for the past 13 months, and a few months ago I was encountering an error message when trying to export saying, "Error creating Flash movie. There was not enough memory available." Here is a screenshot <url...> This isn't due to large videos or photos in the file, it's because theres a huge amount of frame by frame animation, so I can't just reduce quality.
I was off of a crappy laptop so at first I just bought a new computer with tons of ram because I didn't realize the software was an issue. This did not change anything (though I can run flash with less lag).
Then, I decided to do as much optimizing as I could. After a few months, all opimization possible as been done, and I have reached the point where I get the error again.
Then, I decided to cut the main file up into smaller pieces and link them together. This worked, but now some individual pieces require too much memory and get the error.

I have a datagrid in Flex 4 with a NumericStepper as editor for a numeric value. I can set pre-defined maximum and minimum values for the NumericStepper, but I need to be able to have different limits for each row in the DataGrid. How can I do this?
This is the code for the datagrid:

What are current pixel limits on bitmaps in Flash?
View 2 Replies
Nov 18, 2010
As I can read it from this article the maximum square bitmap Flash can handle is 4,095 x 4,095 (which results in 16,769,025 pixels and bla-bla-bla). So, they say if I try to go to 4,096 x 4,096, I'll fail. But I have tried to load and display a bitmap image sized 4,096 x 4,096, and it worked well. Then, I even tried an image sized 5000 x 5000, and that was alright too. What do I not understand? What are the actual limits and how to calculate them?
