ActionScript 3.0 :: Calculate Based Upon An Mc Touching An Mc?
Dec 20, 2011
I have a running total. When an mc hits the table or hand it'll adjust the total. The problem is I only want the total to reflect when an object is resting on the hand mc. If i remove something from it, remove its value from the total. Now to be smart I have it add when an mc hits the hand, and remove a value if an mc hits the table. The problem, if I never touch the hand and keep dropping the mcs on the table, i get a negative value. Is there a way to calculate a total only when a mc rests on the hand mc

I as this working in AS2 and need to update to AS3...shows that AS3 doesn't like sloppy coding. Here's what I need: I pull data from an XML and that works when I put the data into a dynamic text box. However, I can't seem to get the date of birth into a variable. I have some code that calcs age in years but uses a string literal that I thought I could just replace with a variable from my XML...ain't a workin'. Here's the code I have:

import flash.display.*;
import flash.text.*;

I have a graphic replacing the mouse cursor and I'm having it so that when the user goes over a MC (called hitSquare in this case) the cursor graphic moves to a certain location on the stage, then returns to the location of the real mouse position.[code]The problem with this is that during the 0.5 seconds that it takes the graphic to return to the mouse position, the user can still move the mouse, so it actually goes to different co-ordinates and when the user moves the mouse after the 0.5 is over, the cursor just jumps to the new location.How can I make it so that the graphic smoothly follows the mouse, (even if it's being moved and has to update in real time) and then returns to the standard mouse follow code (cursorMC.x = mouseX; etc) once it's met its final destination?I take it this requires some "mouse trail" code that gets removed once it's caught up with the mouse.

I may be wrong but as far as I can understand it the hitTestObject() method checks to see whether the object is touching a specific instance of another object? Is there a method I can use where I can check to see if it is touching any Object of a specified class?
OR is there a method I can call where I can see if an Object of a specified class exists at a specific X and Y.I am actually working in Flex using an Image component as opposed to using Flash.

I have a hitTest function that keeps checking if two objects contact each other. I'm currently using the following code:
function checkOverlap():Void {
if(doorHit.hitTest(player)){[code]....
The message1 MC has a bunch of links that do stuff within the message1 MC, but because the interval keeps running it keeps resetting the message1 MC. Is there any way to pause the interval for as long as the player MC is in contact with the doorHit MC then unpause it when the two MCs are no longer touching? I've thought about making it so that message1 is already on the stage but outside the viewable area. The hitTest function would then move the message1 MC back and forth. But, I want to figure this out so I can also pause functions when the movie moves to a different frame then unpauses when it comes back to the frame with the hitTest. So, is there a way to make this work?

Is there any way of making the MOUSE_OVER of an object not work until touching the actual object instead of the square box that's around it? I have a bunch of stuff packed together and there are certain objects that cannot be detected due to others pretty much enclosing it with it's surrounding box. If you need further explanation because this is not clear enough just ask me and I will try to explain further.

Important: ActionScript 2.0Flash CS3I have some knowledge in Java and C++ which makes this easier... Im trying to make a game and the collision *** does not stop the character in its spot... if i set _y to 0 then it would go to the top of the screen... if i set _y to -1 each frame that the hitTest is active then the character goes through the platform and the rises by -1 (1 up) _y .... how can i make it so the character is stopped immediatly when touching (hitTest) the platform?

I am trying to use a "for" loop to detect if a certain enemy (who is in a movieclip named "world") is touching a stone wall (specifically called "blocker9"). This is the code I'm using:
Code:
for (e=1; e<180; e++) {
theEnemy = world["enemy"+e];[code]...
Whenever I put "world.blocker9" instead of "theBlocker", it works.

I'm working on a game (my first) where objects touching is A-Ok, but I want to detect overlapping collisions ahead of time, prevent them, and react. This seems like a pretty basic and common thing, such as a character walking along a platform (even though by touching it it's 'colliding'), but of all the many many collision detection tutorials I've looked at, none of them have covered this case--they all assume that objects touching should be indistinguishable from overlapping. I've been using a workaround of a slightly smaller hitbox to use for collisions, but it has issues of it's own that make it not so good. So basically I'm looking to redo my CD from scratch.
So, like I said, I'd like to know how to differentiate between 'touching' collisions and overlapping collisions, but even a way to keep touching collisions from triggering entirely would work.

I just discovered impure.com and was very impressed by what can be achieved in terms of visualizing data using their workspace. Although the platform is free to use, but not open source yet. This causes a few problems because the API section works with .com sites for eg. for ebay, so I cannot visualize ebay listings for regional sites such as ebay.in because the link to ebay.com is hardcoded.I searched around, but didn't find other projects that offer a similar way to work with site APIs and other data sources with the kind of user interface and detail that impure.com does in a realtime way within a browser window.This brings me to the questions:
-What technologies would be involved in creating a similar kind of project
-What are the open source tools that can help develop a fullscreen UI to render the workspace. Are there any alternatives to flash for this, and how do they compare
The goal would be to use standard python data structures, python scripts to do some processing on these data structures, scripts to gather data from csv, json and API sources such as google yahoo, wikipedia and flickr, and scripts to render graphs, tag clouds, network visualizations etc. Then bring them all together into a visual interface that supports drag drop and simple type checking.How would the python backend integrate with the UI.

I'm relatively new to AS3. There's one thing that I don't quite understand about Sprites. I'm making a tile based game, and all the tile graphics for a level are inside one movie clip in each frame. Would I be able to go about creating multiple sprites based on the frames in said movieclip's timeline I would I have to go through and make a separate library graphic for each.

I'm working on a game which will involve space battles, and automated turrets. The turrets are giving me the headache right now. Here's what I got so far.
[URL]
The problem is, that the turrets aim at the center of their target, instead of aiming in front of their target to compensate for their movement. I can't seem to crack the equations needed to get the right rotation, for the turret to fire from. The data the turret has avaible, or that I could easily make avaible to it, are:
- The distance to the target (and it's x and y components)
- The current speed vector (the size and rotation)
- The angle between the heading of the target and the turret's location
- The speed of the turret's shot (fixed speed)
