ActionScript 2.0 :: Start Button Needs To Start Timer And Move To Another Frame?
Apr 24, 2011I'm trying to broaden my horizons with it and so I'm trying to do an update of a quiz program my employer has. Everything has worked well, except for the timer. The button that starts the game has two options, "study" or "exam"; if the study is selected, there is no countdown, just the score keeper. If the exam option is selected, the timer is show (counting up). But, press "Start" and while the quiz begins, the timer, in either case, does not.
I'm going to post the actionscript for the timer that was already there, as well as the start button. I'm hoping someone can explain how this timer is supposed to work and why it's not; and where the disconnect lies in pressing the start button and making it run.The timer is embedded in a movie clip, with two dynamic text boxes, that are for some have no instance name; and actionscript spread out over several frames.Frame 1:
Minutes = "00";
Seconds = "00";
Centiseconds = "00";

ActionScript 3.0 :: Reset And Start Another Game?
Jan 1, 2011i have spent several days on this and still can't get it to work. The code below is ok, I am playing a bowling game using the keyboard and timer with a text readout of the elapsed time, the bowl moves a set number of pixels on the screen. whilst in full screen mode I would like to click a start/play button on the screen to start the game and timer again, everything is in frame 1. Also I would like the game to just accept the keycode 77 and keyboard event (2 events only to move the bowl) and then wait for the start/play button click.

Aug 6, 2008I am making a big big big game, and I came across a huge problem. My game has over 60 unique units, which mean that the library of my .fla file is REALLY huge. Flash just can't handle it anymore, and crashes every 5 min. I can't optimize it(already did) and I can't cut through the content. I think I found a solution: I will load my units from external .swf. Sooo, the thing is, I want to load these swf only once, at the start of the game. Here is how it goes: I divided my units in many packets, and set every unit to be "exported for Actionscript" in the library. This way, ill load the .swf and its library at the beginning of the game and I will be able to attach the units MC over runtime.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Game Won't Start Until User Clicks Stage
Sep 6, 2010I'm a student at Drexel University and I just completed a basic platformer for a actionscript class. My professor docked me some points for the game not working until the user actually clicks within the swf. I've heard that this problem is caused on mac osx, but I don't have any concrete evidence to get the points back. Here's a link to the game if you want to check it out.

View 2 RepliesActionscript 3 :: Game Timer Not Calculating Start Time Properly?
Jun 22, 2011The game is like Asteroids where four rocks are placed in the corners of the stage at the beginning and then start moving randomly around the stage. The problem is the timer used is started the moment that the flash file starts not the moment the player clicks the start button. So if you are on the start screen for 5 seconds before you click play when the game actually begins the rocks are where they would be after 5 seconds of play, which could be right over the player.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Play Movieclip To Show Start Of Level In Game?
Nov 8, 2009I have a game with multiple levels, which is working as I want it to. I would like to add just one extra bit of functionality. As each level starts, I would like a movieclip to play and then disappear after a second or so. The movieclip will just say "level 1", "level 2" etc, without any interaction. Ideally it will appear as the level loads, and then fade out to disappear.

Oct 17, 2009I'm designing a platformer game, in which the code is all held within the character MC. I want to pause the game using something like 'delete this.onEnterFrame' as a start point to terminate code. The code layout within the character is like so:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
...
this.onEnterFrame = function(){ //within clip event
...
if(btnon == 1){ // when button pressed(on stage)) global value of 1 is true
delete this.onEnterFrame;
}...}}
Due to the fact its within a clip event structure, it doesn't pause it, instead it slows everything down. Would I have to construct all my code in a frame layer or can I still use an MC to terminate this?

Jan 2, 2012I have been building a simple word game. It is smple but works fine. I am now trying to enhance some of the features.I would like to see if I can display one letter of each word so the Player has a hint. Think of this as a beginners level.The words are random from a text list. Either I can make the letters invisible and the game starts without a hint or I am able to select a letter using charAt() or creating a new variable substring()from the word which is the displayed repeatedly on the stage(not what I want) I have not been able to find a way to display one letter and display it in the correct order within the word and keep the remaining letters invisible.

ActionScript 3.0 :: MP3 Player Button - Start Over The Top
Jun 24, 2009I've made a very basic mp3 player with simple play and stop buttons and it works just fine. However I have noticed that when you click play again while the song is playing it plays the song again from the start over the top. Same if you click it 3 times 4 etcetc. I have no idea how to disable the button while the song is playing/until the user clicks stop. This is the code I have on the play button:
on (release) {
weddingSound = new Sound(this);
weddingSound.attachSound("wedding");
weddingSound.start(0, 99);
}

Start Timeline When I Click Button?
May 13, 2009I have used the actions panel to write a stop code on frame one of my timeline.When I test my movie it stays on the home page, which is good! I have also created an 'enter site' button on the home page. I want to click this button and have the timeline start rolling over to frame 50 (where my next label 'contents' will be). At frame 50 I want it to stop, and so on for all of my labels/pages. The action taking place on the timeline is a pan across a panoramic photograph, which will stop at different points.

Mar 21, 2010I'm making a Century club timer, it is to execute on pressing the start button, and then run until finished (our paused, but thats not implemented yet). To keep the timer accurate I had to use the Date() function.The timer() function is used to update the displayed time. I tried using a while-loop for this, but then the whole thing would just freeze. :S So instead a use a infinite timer that ends when currentTime == targetTime.

View 2 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Flash - Onload Start First Button?
Jan 13, 2010Basically, I have a movie with a set of buttons which show some information when clicked or mouseover. Effectively, until i have clicked onto a button there is white space and when clicked, the information shows in this whitespace.What I would like to do is when the movie is loaded I would like to pretend the user has already clicked the first button, thus showing information and not white space. I can get the movie to do this however I cannot get this to then following the rest of the actionscript. It remains loaded.
In short what I am looking for is some sort of onLoad function to pretend the first button has been clicked and then ignore or unload the command and ONLY repeat this if the movie is loaded again (refresh etc)It is a movie clip NOT a button, sorry. So I would like to load the first movie clip (there are 15 in total) then cancel this command when the user interacts and clicks to move on.I have added this to the first moviemc.onLoad = function() {this.gotoAndStop(10);}But this just keeps repeating itself when the user clicks another mc to move to the next item. I need this to only happen once on load.

ActionScript 1/2 :: Button To Start And Stop Music?
Jan 26, 2012I'm fairly new at AC2 (Yes, I need to update), and I have Flash CS3.I need to find out if I can have a button that when you click it, plays a music file, and then when you click it again, the music that was playing for that button would stop.I have a text box on top of a rectangle and I selected them both and converted them to a button symbol, named it MusicFile, double clicked on the new button, inserted a new keyframe in the timeline on "down" (where it says Up, Over, Down, Hit), and then dragged the music file from the library onto the button. It works fine, until I click the button a second time, and it just keeps playing as if I pushed play twice and two copies of the sound started playing.Is it possible to make the button play the music when it's clicked the first time, then stop the music that it was just playing the second time it was clicked?
