ActionScript 2.0 :: Attaching Mask Dynamically To Multiple Instances?
Jan 2, 2006I am attaching six movies via the attachMovie method. I have put all six of these instances into an array and everything's going smoothly as all box's move around in random places and bounce around around a little. Only problem is I want to mask all 6 of these instances via setMask so they are restricted to one area but can't seem to figure out how to do that.If that's not possible I would also love to know if there is a way to do collision testing with them and then I could draw a border around the area I want them to stay in and have them bounce around that (I would actually prefer this)
View 1 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamically Create Multiple Instances Of A Movieclip?
Jan 11, 2008I'm modifying a flash slideshow (actually the one from kirupa.com) and among other things, I'm trying to get it to generate small LEDs depending on the number of images the script finds in the xml file. I intend to make them light up depending on the image currently up (i.e. image #5 lights up led #5) and allow users to click on the LEDs to jump around between images.
The problem I'm having now is that I can't get the file to generate more than one LED at a time. In fact, it seems to only generate the last LED needed and places it in the final LED position. My only real guess at this point is either I'm not indicating a new depth properly, or I'm creating the new movieclip over and over again but not actually creating a duplicate of it, or something like that.[code]...

ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamically Adding And Removing Multiple Instances Of Same MCs After Certain Time
Dec 14, 2009After a little break in AS3 I'm back... and facing a problem. For a school project I'm trying to make a side scroller game in which the player automatically moves right and has to avoid branches.Basically, depending on how well you do your speed (var) gets updated. After certain 'distance' (fake of course, as the player stays centered) I would like a n instance of Branch_MC to appear. Also, when that instance's x property reaches -20 I would like it removed.I'd need approximately 135 branches so creating variables isn't really an option.
View 8 RepliesFlex :: Dynamically Add Multiple Instances Of A Form Based On User Input?
Mar 4, 2010I'm trying to create a form that based on the users input would determine how many forms to generate dynamically. I have a base state with a combo box that contains 1-4. Bases on the users selection I would like to have the next state generate the number of forms. So if you user selects 2 and click next - 2 copies of the form would be display.
I'm just wondering if this is possible how i would go about doing this or if any one knows of any examples?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Put Multiple Instances Of Same Movieclip On The Stage
May 13, 2009I have a movieclip that gave a class name and set everything to export into action script. Now, I would like to put multiple instances of that same movieclip on the stage. I would also like to be able to keep track of them individually. Would I need to do something like create a for loop and have it run however many times i want that movieclip onstage? If I did that, how would I be able to manage them? Would I also give them names in the for loop and have a var that goes ++ every time it loops, then attach that var to the end of the name I give it.
View 3 RepliesProfessional :: Adding Multiple Instances Of Imported Swf To Stage?
Jun 14, 2010I understand how to import a swf and add it to the stage. Is it possible (using code) to add the one imported swf to the stage multiple times, each with different instance names? So the same as adding a library item to the stage multiple times, each time with a different instance name, with code, but using an imported swf?
View 1 RepliesActionScript :: Adding Multiple Instances Of The Same Swf File To The Stage
Jun 6, 2011I'm creating a game in ActionScript 3.0 using the FlashPunk game engine and the FlashDevelop SDK. I've created my own MovieClip class that takes a preloaded movie clip file.
public function MyMovieClip(file:MovieClip, posX:int, posY:int, frameRate:int)
{
movieClip = file;
[Code]....
The problem that I'm having is that when I have multiple instances of the MyMovieClip class using the same swf file, only the last instance is rendered and is updated for each instance of the class that I have.(e.g 3 instances of MyMovieClip, the last instance is updates at 3 times the speed.)
ActionScript 3.0 :: AddChild To Create Multiple Instances Of An MC On The Stage?
Jun 28, 2009I'd like to create a chain of objects (either movie clips or sprites) that move left to right across the stage continuously. I know I can create two movie clips that contain a series of several 'chain links' and are each a little wider than the stage width. Then I can move both clips across the stage and when the first movie clip is completely off stage reset its x position back to 0. Likewise, when the second clip is completely off the stage on the right, reset it's position off the stage to the left.
This works and gives me the basic effect that I want by creating this uninterrupted moving chain, but it doesn't seem like its the most efficient way to achieve this. What I thought would be more efficient would be to create each link in the chain separately from an individual mc in my library by programmatically adding new instances to the stage.So, I created a single chain link mc and set its export linkage to 'Link' and left the base class to flash.display.MovieClip. Next, I placed the following snippet of the code on the first frame of my movie:
Code:
var xPos:int = 0;
var yPos:int = 100;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Sync Multiple FlvPlayback Instances On Stage?
Jun 7, 2011i have 4 flvplayback components on stage loading 4 different videos. How do i sync them?
I have ensured they are all fully buffered i.e fully loaded and then play them all at once. But they keep getting out of sync. I.e i am checking the sync with the playheadtime. I had written an timer/enterframe event to check for out of sync at and pause and seek times to the fastest playing player . But this happens for every second. i keep gettting a very jittery video with breaking sounds due to the constant pause /seek / play cycle.
How can we sync multiple flvplayback videos properly.
ActionScript 2.0 :: Get Is A Prototype Or Function That Will Allows For Multiple Instances On That Stage?
Apr 25, 2007I'm having issues with something wanted to accomplish involving qued amations that i can reuse in various situations throughout an application...
Basically, what I'm trying to get is a prototype or function that will allows for multiple instances on that stage that start at a specific x/y and size, animate to a specific x/y size and end at a specific x/y and size... the x/y and size information is defined for each of the instances in the function.
A good place for this would be with buttons... check the sloppy diagram attached.
Actionscript 3 :: Track X And Y Values Of Multiple Object Instances On The Stage?
Oct 27, 2011I have an arbitrary number of object instances on the stage. At any one given time the number of objects may be between 10 and 50. Each object instance can move, but the movement is gradual, the current coordinates are not predictable and at any given moment I may need to retrieve the coordinates of a specific object instance. Is there a common best-practice method to use in this case to track object instance coordinates? I can think of two approaches:
I write a function within the object class that, upon arbitrary event execution, is called on an object instance and returns that object instances coordinates.
Within the object class I declare global static variables that represent x and y values and, upon arbitrary event execution, the variables are updated with the latest values for that object instance.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Load Multiple External Images Into Mc Instances On Stage / Using Different Loaders
Jul 29, 2010I'm using this AS to load multiple external images into mc instances on a stage, using different loaders.[code] The external images always load from the upper left corner down, how can you make the image load from the center of the instance on stage?I found this code below and doubt it will work for me since I have 5 mc instances on different parts of the stage, so the stage wouldnt be a good reference point.[code]
View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Adding Multiple Instances At Varying But Specific Points On Stage
Jul 12, 2010add multiple instances of an object to the stage at different but not random points.
For example - I have a box that is linked to a class file. In the class file I have an "ADDED_TO_STAGE" event listener. The function that is called places the box at a certain position on the stage say.... x=100, y= 200.
In the document class I create an instance of it like so -
_box:box = new box();
addChild(_box);
Now what I want is to create multiple instances of box on the stage every 5 seconds. But I don't want them all to spawn at (100,200) on the stage. But here's the catch, I don't want them to be random spawns either.
for ex- I want the first instance of box to spawn on (100,200), then 5 seconds later, the second instance to spawn at (200, 800), the third at (100, 500) and so on.
Would it be possible for me to create objects on the stage to serve as reference points for where i want the instances to spawn instead of writing the exact co-ordinates?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Dynamically Create Multiple Buttons On The Stage?
Jul 26, 2009I want to dynamically create multiple buttons on the stage. The number of buttons I want to load will eventually be retrieved from an XML file.
I've made some progress but I'm a little stuck. I have no problems with the XML at all. I've created a button with rollovers and given it a linkage class name and it can be added as a child to the stage.
The problem lies with creating multiple different buttons, each with unique button listeners.
ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamically Load Multiple Images To A Movie Clip On The Stage?
Oct 25, 2006I'm trying to dynamically load multiple images to a Movie Clip on the stage. Where I am having trouble, is when I position different sized images one under another.
What I have done is, assign a variable for the position for the _y of the next image. eg. var spacing:Number = 0;
Since I'm loading the images from a XML file, I've included the height for each image aswell. This is where I am having trouble
eg. spacing += myxml.childNodes[i].childNodes; OR
spacing = spacing + myxml.childNodes[i].childNodes;
trace(spacing);
Say for example, the image I am loading is 400px high, 'spacing' then appears to be 0400 and not 400. After I load the second image, which is 500px high, spacing appears to be 0400500 and not 900.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Multiple Scenes With Multiple Instances Of The Same Slide Show
Sep 8, 2009Ok so here is my XML slideshow Actionscript:
ActionScript Code:
stop();
var xmlRequest:URLRequest= new URLRequest("graphicImages.xml");
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(xmlRequest);
[Code]....
So I figured that the coding of separate scenes would work independently of one another, but I guess I was dead wrong, because when I apply this to a different scene and change the XML path for a different set of images, I get all sorts of conflict errors when I test the entire movie. I have my flash film set up so that each link send the user to a different scene, which plays a unique intro for each, and then the slideshow appears on screen and the viewer can navigate the images.
Is there a work around for this? Or am I going to have to break my flash movie into separate movies? Or should I just add a suffix to all my vars and functions so that they are unique for each scene?
Dynamically Controlling Many Instances At Once?
Mar 19, 2011i am trying to control 30 instances of a movie clip dynamically. the instances are as follows

coming from php i would just set up an associative array like list array('speed'=>array(false,false,true,...),'weapon '=>array(true,false,....and so on I can not for the life of me figure out how to store this information and then use it as a variable name later.my end result should look something like this .. i just don't understand how to do this in as3 .. it seems unnecessarily convoluted.
Code:
foreach($upgrades['speed'] as $key => $val)
{
UpgradeScreen.'speed'.$key.visible = $val);
this would dynamically call

i know the above is incorrect.I want to create this so that it is completely dynamic and the instance names can be feed in dynamically as the array or whatever is being looped.
