ActionScript 3.0 :: Create A Particlesystem Where Each Particle Moves By Himself Depending On Which Behavior Has Been Assigned To Him
Aug 20, 2009
im trying to create a particlesystem where each particle moves by himself depending on which behavior has been assigned to him. But.. its slower than my grandma at the moment One thing I would like to keep though is the ability to change the behavior of the particle later on. Just have 2 classes (Particle & FlyAroundStage) at the moment and one that creates the swf.
[Code].....
Its just flying down to the right. I want to make this way more sophisticated later on but first in need to get the structure right because right now, even though its just flying in a straight path, its way too slow.

I have a particle generator class and I want to create a hitTestObject function on another object to check for any collisions with the particles produced.I bascially have a character already on the stage called character_mc and I want to be able to collect the particles, that means when the character touches a particle, the particle disappears.

i am trying to create a particle system for a game i am creating in class, though it seems that the particles are not being added to the stage. my instructor and i have checked all the obvious things and now were stumped?
particle class:
Code:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
public class Particle extends MovieClip {
var xspeed:Number;
[code]....
the particle movie clip is simply a 5x5 rectangle, with the class name redParticle and the base class is Particle. [URL]

Is it possible to make this a mask? The system contains one movieclip of a circle called ball, also a class called ball and a class called particle. I want the particle system movieclips to display an image...I'm sure this is possible...just have not been able to find a way. A little backround, I'm a completely selftaught n00b when it comes to AS3, but I'm grasping it fairly well... the tutorial is on this website, called A Simple Particle System Using Actionscript 3.

I am tring to create a simple mine game..so I created a couple movie clips one of which is to be assigned a value of "0" and the other is to be assigned a value of "1" randomly. That is if the one on the left has "0" the other should have "1" and that if I click the one having "0" value ,let it explode or do something..The problem is that I am not sure how to use "onClipEvent(enterFrame)" and on(press).. I named my MCs as "mcleft1" and "mcright

I am using the following code in order to create an effect when the mouse moves:
Code:
var count = 0;
_root.onMouseMove = function()[code]...
I would also like to do that when the mouse cursor is still.

To start things off, I use Flash CS3.moving menu that moves on its own when the mouse moves around it. Like the menu moves up when the mouse moves down.[URL]i have found similar tutorials for what i wanted.. but they are AS2 or older versions of flash..and what i needed is more along the lines of AS3 as that's what my class is learning and using.Does anyone know of an AS3 or anything that works with Flash CS3 tutorial thats what I'm asking?

I am trying to declare private variables that will be used elsewhere in my flex mxml main application. But I need to only create the variables when their is an equal number in my xml file.
My xml snippet looks like this:
<POIs>
<location>
<name>jane</name>
[Code].....
Is it possible to wait until the xml has loaded before declaring these variables?

I have an SWF movie (1375 frames) and created a progress bar (248px wide) with a slider that moves according to the movie progress. I'm doing that next way:Calculating the distance for the slider to be moved each frame (248 / 1375) On each ENTER_FRAME moving the slider for the calculated distance The problem is - the movie ends far before the slider reaches the end of the progress bar.
I'm thinking that the distance (Step 1) is is somehow ends floored by Flash and the actual distance it moves the slider is smaller than required. That's why the movie ends, but the timeline control just passed the 2/3 of its way. My question is - is there any solution for the problem? Or any other way to go, if it's a wrong one?

looking to create an image/mc slider that moves form right to left via user clicks of a left and right button.I would assume I would create an array to hold a series of mc's in (my images) and then tell the left and right buttons CLICK events to move linearly through the array (displaying next in line and previous etc.

If in a situation, the addEventListener is being assigned more than once for same actionwhat will happen then? Suppose on frame 5 there is ample_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK...... ... and when user navigates the application/site it comes on frame 5 again and again. Will the addEventListener be applied more than once on that button? If yes then what will happen on clicking on that button? will the associated function be called more than once now?

I'm using the Pulse Particle component to place a random starfield into my client's animation. Problem is as you'll see in this simplified example, I have the particle layer next to the bottom but when you render out the movie, the particles go right to the top layer, no matter what. I tried both this timeline effort and then I tried placing it with AS3 using the addChild method. Neither worked at all. How can I tell this component to only populate to the proper layer/level so the objects above it are seen without any particles?

I am new to actionscript but I am fairly confident in messing around with it. I have been trying to make a particle engine for two days now and I'm at my wits end.
What's funny is, the particle engine works fine. i have piggy backed off of somebody elses particle engine and modified things to how i need them (And stripped it of a few unnessicary things..) what my problem consists of, is I am trying to make the particles go behind another movie clip. this movie clip is a frame (to make it blend in with the webpage it is displayed on) and it must always stay on top depth no matter what to give that affect.

I have an array packed with 100 movieclips. Say, I randomly move each array element across the stage. Now I decide to stop a specific mc. What I would normally do is remove it from the array it currently is at, so the for loop cannot "see" it. When I work with only one mc, I simply set a boolean flag, e.g. ActionScript Code: var isMoving:Boolean = false;, and make it possible to move only when the flag is true. However, it fails to work right when there's more objects on the stage, because once I set the flag to false, all mc's freeze, not the one that actually was meant to. Finally, here comes my question: is it feasible to assign a flag to a specific element of an array? Each element to have its own flag?

Here is the code that I have just now:
Code:
package
{
import flash.display.*;
public class Particle
[code]....
This creates a constant stream of particles flowing from one point on the screen. I don't want the particles to constantly flow out from one point - I want to create a button that causes a set number of particles to explode out from it when it is clicked.

I've got a bunch of modules called "c4" labled red1,red2,red3, etc. And a laser made from particles, with angle controlledby bckspace and enter keys:
onEnterFrame = function(){
for (m=1;m<4;m++){c4 = this["red"+m];
if(robot_mc.laser_mc.lasereye_mc.hitTest(c4.cap)){c4.gotoAndPlay("fram e2"); }
[code]....
The problem I run into is having the collision work with the beam, as opposed to the bounding box that begins with thelasereye_mc. Is there a way to get the c4 to react with the beam, instead of the bounding box around the beam? Or a way to get the photons to interact individually? Also, is there a way to load a particle system through an onEnterFrame without it overloading/oversaturting ?

I've written a game with a particle system, as the particles go off the stage, they are removed. At the end of the game I want to remove all the particles which are still on the stage. How can I do this?
My first thought is to put all the particles in a container and then remove the container at the end of the game. However, if I put the particles in a container, I can't reference them anymore with event.target

i've got this really simple particle system... what i can't figure out is how to duplicate it and still have it work. if you take a look at my .fla, you'll see that I have attempted to dupe the mc and particle system by duping the mc and having the same AS on it. I also duped the original code on the 2nd frame which multiplies the mc's to create moreparticles...maybe somebody can tell me what's going wrong here. i'm trying to achieve a sprinkler head effect so i need to dupe this effect to fill in what a real fire sprinkler would do.

Ive attached the associated file, Its simply a partical generator that initially creates an explosion of particles which disipate after they stray a certain distance, but how can i remove the original particle movieclip from which Its formed?

so I am requesting a little help to connect a few pieces of code I have; the end result being a particle effect that propels 9 different movieclips (pulled from the library) off 'into space'.
Here is the code to call a single movieclp, which I was able to create myself :
Code:
var i:Number=0;
function createMusic() {
origin.attachMovie('music', "music"+i, i);
