ActionScript 3.0 :: Using Array To Deploy Series Of Timers?
Jun 1, 2011
I'm building a page that uses an array to deploy a series of timers that do a variety of things. The problem is at any point the user needs to be able to navigate away from the page and when they do they get a timer tick error. To stop this, I have been trying to write a function that stops all the timers which I can do when I write all the timers out the long way, but I'm failing when trying to stop the timers created with the array. I'm getting the following error:
ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property 3 not found on flash.utils.Timer and there is no default value.
Here is the code:
Code:
var timerRepeats:Number = 1;
var currentTimerLength:Array = [1500, 4500, 500, 1500, 1500];
var i:Number = 0;
var timerCount:Number = 0;
var totalTimers:Number = 3;
[Code] .....
I assume that this relates to my attempt to use the variable to identify each of the various timers and stop them (apparently flash is not actually creating an instance name for each of the timers like it would for a movieclip).

In a game I'm making the timers that I use go one speed when I run it by pushing Ctrl-Enter in Flash but when I run the external .swf file created, the timers go considerably slower.I have managed to work around this by making the timers reset at lower intervals but I would rather not have to resort to this.

What I have:
Code:
var glideShootingTimer:Timer = new Timer (500);
glideShootingTimer.start();
glideShootingTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, glideShoot);
[code]....
What it does:Every half second create a torpedo underneath every "glide" sprite on the stage.What is wrong:Every "glide" fires at the same time as the others.What I need:A way to individually time the firing. A way to make it fire in independent half second intervals, not all at once.

How do I find number of all the series (combinations of an array that have at least 3 consecutive values, like [7,8,9]) and have the longest number of values?
from [3,4,1,2,2] it would be 2 - ([1,2,3,4] twice, but ignore [1,2,3]*2 and [2,3,4]*2)
from [9,6,7,5,8] it would be 1 - ([5,6,7,8,9])
[Code]....
this will create an array ($ranks) that will have these values [2:2, 3:1, 4:1, 9:1]
from this I will be able to multiply the values under 2,3 ad4 4 and multiply them by 3, so I would get 2*1*1 * 3
how to find the consecutive values, and ignore ones that aren't (like the 9)

I'm trying to create a SWF that loads a series of FLV files into an array, and then plays them randomly and seamlessly one after another in a continuous, random loop.

I'm new to Flex. I've been graphing multiple series in a line chart where all of these series are the same length. Now I need to plot new data and each series has a different length from each other. The question is how to modify the following code to do this.
The initApp() function is called at the start of the program, and it calls function genData() to generate the dataSet used for plotting in the LineChart.
public function initApp():void {
// Initialize data provider array.
dataSet = new ArrayCollection(genData());
[Code]....
Can someone recommend how to place array1, array2, array3, and array4 into x1, y1, x2, y2 (respectively) when the length of array1 and array2 do not equal that of array3 and array4? Or, equivalent outcome.
I'm assuming everything has to come in through dataSet, but I wonder if it's possible to simply reference array1 (etc.) directly from <mx:LineChart ...> or <mx:LineSeries ...> somehow, to avoid wasting memory on an unnecessary array (e.g. dataSet).

We would like to deploy Flash Player in our corporate environment.Users are NOT administrators of their local machines, so just installing it on the image and leaving it is not an option.Telling users not to click the large Adobe Flash Player has an update splash screen is also not an option.

I created a Flex app in a Windows XP environment using Flex Builder 3.
From the menubar, I selected "Project->Export Build Release" and moved the files from /bin-release onto my local server (WAMP).
I have a PHP file that connects to a db and delivers some data via XML
Everything works right on my computer. Then I tried to move the app to a mac.
I installed MAMP with the default settings (localhost:8888)
I can connect to the PHP file and get the XML by hitting the appropriate URL on @ http://localhost:8888/...
Likewise, I can connect to the html template and the swf executes, but it doesn't seem to be getting the data back, and I don't get any debug info popping up.
Are there security settings enabled by default in Mac OS that would not allow a flex app to request data from a remote resource (i.e. http://localhost:8888/ in this case)?

I have a SWF file I created using Adobe Flex and I cannot seem to properly embed it inside an HTML page. If I take another SWF file and use it instead, it works all the time. My SWF file is pretty big (1 MB) while the other one is tiny (25 KB). However, I can wait 5-10 minutes and the server connection is super fast and it still will never load. Is there something I need to do to the SWF to have it start up properly? My SWF almost never runs.

I haven't written anything in Flex in a couple years and much has changed since. I used Flash Builder 4.6 to build my app now I want to deploy it to a ASP.NET application. What files other than the swf do I need to deploy to ensure everything works for my users? I see in the bin-debug folder of the project it spits out a bunch of swfs (framework, rpx, playerProductInstall, spark, etc) and the swfobject.js. Do I need all these files deployed to the same location as my swf?

I just wanna ask something about deploying flash apps in Flash Media server.If I have developed (or costumize) a flash player under Flash Media Development Server (free/trial one) when I try to deploy the apps on FMSS, can it be done? I mean, from what I read in 3 FMS edition comparison table.it is said that we cannot build custom apps to be deployed in FMSS, only in FMIS, is that right?

I have some code to scale an image's width according to its height after the image is being loaded. It works fine on my development PC if I point to the wrapper html using local file system path. However, after I deploy the web application to JBoss AS 5.1, it stopped working - it always sets the image width to 0, causing it to disappear.
Code for scale image side:
private function scaleImage():void {
img.width = img.contentWidth;
}
<mx:Image id="img" updateComplete="callLater(scaleImage)" height="100%" />

I am working on a Flex 4.5 app tageting Android. In different views the app needs to load and display images which I have deployed as part of the app. Where do I put these images? And how do I load them? I am familiar with @Embed for images, but this doesn't seem to be the correct approach in this case. I also know how to load from the file system, but I really don't know how to include my images as part of the app for distribution.

I need 20 separate timers, to be used with 10 separate objects, and need to be able to start, stop, and edit the delay time of each timer separately.
My question is; would having 23 timers going on simultaneously slow the program down, and is there a quick or easy way to mass-create and mass-edit timers (arrays? for/next loops? I'm pretty new to ActionScript...)

I'm trying to use 2 separate timers in a flash solution (CS4, AS3). The second timer won't fire. I need 2 constant events. one could drive the other
I'm displaying a different image every x seconds. I'm fading the old image out and then fading the new image in. Unfortunately, I've not been able to get these events to work in tandem. fade in and out times are both 2 secs & need to be sequential.

As far as I understand this should work, but it's not.The situation:A timer starts with a random number to determine how long it takes for a movieClip to spawn.When it spawns a second timer starts running for 2 seconds, after these 2 seconds the movieClip needs to be removed again and the first Timer starts again, again with a random number. But the comm between the Timers isn't running smoothly...The timer does get set to it's new value, it starts counting down again, but it never fires the if statement again.
PHP Code:
private function nBallTimerHandler(e:TimerEvent):void{nBallCnt--; trace(nBallCnt);if(nBallCnt = 0)

I would like a lightweight script that loops through an array, counting down to the next item in the array (over and over again).
Code:
countdown_dur = new Array ( [1,20,2,20,6] );
It would be perfect if this series of countdowns could repeat until the day is then done, and then start over again at 6:29AM the following day.[edit] The countdown_dur array holds the time (in minutes) for each countdown before the next begins.
