I still have problem understanding how the collision category works. I'm only able to make it work by experimenting which is not good.
[Code]...
this works the way I wanted but only because I experimented around and found the right values (or at least values that work). I would prefer to know how the whole system works
i am listening contact between dynamic bodies. But cannot listen contact between dynamic and static bodies .
I can handle collision detection on my b2contactListener class with this metod.
public override function BeginContact(contact:b2Contact):void {
// getting the fixtures that collided
var fixtureA:b2Fixture=contact.GetFixtureA();

I'm making a Flash game where the player throws balls of mud at objects in the sky. I'm using Box2D to model the physics. I don't want the ball to bounce off of objects (apply a normal force); instead I want it to impart its momentum on the object it is striking (like a movie-style shotgun blast).

I was wondering if there is a way to jump to a specific frame name when loading a new .swf file? For example, I have my Main.swf which holds the navigation. Then I created 5 other .swfs to hold the content.Depending what button is pushed, I will load the correct movie into a placeholder MC on the main screen.However, I want to jump to a specific point within the new movie, can I do that? I am loading by levels in which I am using the level 0 each time so the new page takes over and the previous page is not transparent seeing through. So, on the buttons, I am using the basic:
on (release) {
loadMovieNum ("content1.swf", 0);
}[code]....
I tried that, but could not get it to work. Also, since I am loading by level, does that sort of over ride my loading into placehold or what is the major difference?
I found a multiple drag to a single drop example here on the forums that works wonderful for the dragging and dropping part of my project. I am now trying to add in a sort of category detection. I have 45 movieclips located on the stage. They get set up with a loop, giving them a drag/drop functionality. The movieclips belong to one of 7 categories. The user can drag only 5 movieclips to a designated area. Once the 5 have been selected, I need to then figure out which category had the most selected. What would be the best way to set this up? Here is what I'm working with so far

I wanted to add some category buttons so far its going well with the new xml.
Only I can't figure out the switch between the category button.
When i click on cat 1 Btn everything loads fine then when i click on cat btn 2 instead of reloading and "throwing" cat1 content away cat 2 content loads behind cat1 content...I hope that made sense.....
I have added the files, it's basically the same just a different XML and some tweaking on the XML load function. I didn't add the images since the file was to big, you can get the images from Todd's post. viewtopic.php?f=9&t=16158&p=82039

Basically i want to have Album categories the same way the thumbnails work so their is a mask limiting 4 categories on screen and when you click < or > arrows next to the categories it shows the next 4 categories that you would be able to choose from.
Then I would want it to load whatever category you selected into the thumbnails and the larger pic.
Does anyone know how to do this ? Or if their is another tutorial that would show me how to add categories into something like a gallery with thumbnails?
Apologies for being stupid and the poor grammar I've been searching everywhere to find out how i can add in some categories and still have it linked to the thumbnail scroller and larger images, but i haven't found any luck at all I just want it so you could add in as many thumbs and categories as you wanted and have those masked and scrollable rather then a dropdown.
I paid for some silly pdfs to explain it better to me but they did it in a way that I didn't like and turned out just to be a waste of money. Learnt my lesson and signed up here to ask the pros! I want to create something that can be updated from just an xml file.
I recently did a quick demo on my site of Box2D (Box2DFlashAS3) with source code. Its basically just the HelloWorld example from the v2.1a distribution, but with a few tweaks. The most notable is that my version does not require a Flash FLA file to compile and run, its pure AS3. Simple and a good base to build on:

Anyone know how to get BOX2D physics engine working on iOS? It seems to work on the adl tester but not when I actually test it on the device.
View 1 RepliesI'm making a game like Arkanoid and to move the ship with mouse, I'm using the following code :
var mousex:int = costume.stage.mouseX;
if (mousex < paddleWidth/2)
mousex = paddleWidth/2;
else if (mousex > PhysiVals.STAGE_WIDTH - paddleWidth/2)

Everything's going fine there! The paddle is moving the way it should! The problem is I want a little inclination towards the direction its moving and when it stops moving the angle of inclination should become zero.

There is a flash game called garbage separator. In this game, there is a conveyor belt.
With 2 Circles you can move the conveyor and I think you can use boxes with joint for belt but i dont know how to give it the form:

How to do this with Box2d?
I'm using sensors in a Box2D project. On a collision with a sensor, I'd like to know the sensor's position in the world. I'm detecting the collision with a contact listener, but the sensor's position is always 0 0.
From my code: (edit, added the whole class)
public class MyContactListener extends b2ContactListener {
public var onSensorEvent:Function;
override public function BeginContact(contact:b2Contact):void {
if(contact.GetFixtureA().IsSensor()) {
var ud1:GameEntity = contact.GetFixtureA().GetBody().GetUserData();
