I have made my character and inside of its symbol I created its stand still - stop(); - frame before its left and right walking cycles which are both 5 frames long. Now my question is what action script do I use to move both left and right while activating my walk cycle when the arrow is down. Would someone please write out the script for me?

View 1 RepliesI am making a side scrolling game and I have all my pieces made, background, main character, enemies, wall, floor, etc. I have begun coding it with Action Script 3. I have it to where i have a main menu, and two buttons= one that goes to instructions and one that starts the game. I have my main character as a movie clip and inside the movie clip I have labels- stand, right walk, left walk, jump, duck, fire, and die.I coded it to where when I press my right arrow key it goes to and plays the right walk, down arrow key it plays the duck label.I have a trace on them and they are working. What Im trying to figure out how to do is 2 things. First, when my character gets to a certain spot on the screen, he stops walking and the screen moves, and second how to make the enemies move. Im scripting everything internally and not using any classes for this game.

I want to create some AS to disable and enable a button.Let's call this ButtonX. I want this button to appear disabled at first, and then allow the user the option of enabling this button(ButtonX) by clicking another button. Let's call this ButtonY. I cannot get this to work.

I am making a walk and jump game. My game would work by the character standing in a fixed place and when I press the left key he would appear to walk left but the background actually is moving right. And when I press the right key the background would move left making the character appear to move right. Now I would also like the character to jump when I press the up key. Now I have created a walk cycle in a movie clip and have a jump cycle that I could also use for the jump.
View 6 RepliesI have code that I wrote(myown and tutorials) and I am having some issues. The object is to make the ball walk to the box and pick up the item. When the pick up occurs the item(box) needs to disappear.
mcMain is the character(ball)
mcCoin is the item(square)
Code:
Variables for key downs
var leftKeyDown:Boolean = false; //left key down false
var upKeyDown:Boolean = false; //up key down false
var rightKeyDown:Boolean = false; //right key down false
var downKeyDown:Boolean = false; //down key down false
var mainSpeed:Number = 7; // speed of character

xml stuff in action script is so... non-intuitive.. cubersome I can compare it to the xml libs that I used in playground sdk, popcap and other .. tinyxml.. ....
I' m trying to make that simpliest thing for about 2-3 hours.. + reading books.. and still can't do it..
what I want to do is:
<xml>
<Weapons>
<Weapon id="canon" rechargeTime="200" impulse="30">
[Code].....
how do I read the all "Weapon" objects listed inside Weapons.. NOTE: I dont want to use the method.. that returns "Weapon" from all over the xml... cause I probably want to list weapons in other sections for other purposes
im having a bit of an issue with making a character walk to a position when the area is clicked (but i dont want them to move on the y scale, just the x). i dont want them to instantly move, i want them to (flip over if necessary) and play their walking animation as they walk to the clicked position.

View 1 RepliesUsing AS2, how can I have a character movie clip walk along a line/curve without falling through it? By this I mean the character could say, walk over a hill whilst jumping (falling back down due to gravity physics) but would not fall through the curve that represents the hill.An example of this would be BMX star or BMX backflips and any game that is a side-on view of a character walking.

View 13 RepliesIs there some script or reference to show me how to create an swf with 3 jpg files (I'd like them to fade quickly but calmly between each other and simply cycle around for a web banner.
View 2 RepliesI have a simple movie clip of fading in text displaying on page with a sound. also have a button that allows user to go to the next frame. It is an exercise for students that basically goes like this: object presented in each frame, spelling (text) for that object fades in on mc with sound attached to mc, then button activates to let them move on to next. Since they are trigger happy, I don't want the button that allows to move on to activate on the frame until AFTER the movieclip and it's sound have played out (which is like 2 seconds so not a long wait) - otherwise, they would just keep clicking next and not listen to the material presented (it's very young children).
How do I set this up? I knew it's likely very simple, but I'm a newbie. Of course, I could always just do it on the timeline, but I have a ton of material, so am trying to use actionscript to be more efficient. for even younger kids, am considering setting this up so they can move to next frame through any keypress. I know how to set up a certain key, but not ANY key.
I' am building a web site where i have a navigation which also works by pressing the (4) keyboard buttons, up, right, down, left. When the web site loads the keyboard navigation works only after i click somewhere on the screen.

I have made a movie file symbol with multiple key-frames, such as a person walking, but when I drag this symbol from the library into the stage and preview it, all I see is the first frame of the symbol--it never changes to the next frames.

Does anyone know if it is possible to modify the code so that it automatically cycles through all the images in, say, 10 second intervals? So rather than keep clicking the next button, it just cycles through. And when it gets to the last image, it then cycles back through the first one.[code]...
I am making a portfolio for my website and here is the beginning of my script.
stop();
//setting up the list of frame names for the buttons
imagelist = ["horror","legs","chair"];
//'next' button setup
next_b.onRelease = function() {
gotoAndPlay (imagelist[0]);
}
Now I want the button to cycle through the arrays so that everytime you hit the button it goes to the next frame instance that I've named. In this case imagelist[0] is horror so next time you hit button I want it to goto imagelist[1] or 'legs.' Also I need to set a stop action for this (I am guessing loop) so that it stops at the array length.
If I wanted to to cycle through an array that looked like this:Array("Red", "Blue", "orange", "green", "Silver", "Black", "Yellow", "Peach")how would my code look if I wanted to only display three at a time. what would the code look like for a next and a previous button to see the next three and the previous three?
