ActionScript 3.0 :: Create A Pattern Randomly Without Overlapping?
Aug 23, 2010
I got some movie clips with different shapes and I would like to make a pattern from those movie clips. I have assigned the x y co-ordinates of those movie clips with the Math.random function. However, the shapes overlap all the time, what can I do to avoid it? I could add the clips to a list after being randomised, then define the area which couldn't be place by the other movie clips. However, how can I define that area in AS3? I have tried to do the hitTest, but I am not too sure what should I do if it has detected a hit, since there's a probability that it will hit another shape.

I have a few mc's in the library ("mc1, mc2, mc3, mc4...) how can I attach them from the library to the stage randomly, but without getting it out of the stage and without overlapping to each other?
I started 2 days ago programming in as3, so I'm building a website and I want to create a pattern for my background.The pattern is a bitmap image 300px X 300px and I want to repeat it along the x axis and y axis of my document.My stage is 1280 x 800)And I want also to have the pattern to fill all the screen in case of the user's screen become larger than the resolution of the stage that I'm building the website on.
i'm trying to search a string for a particular pattern, and replace it with elements from within the pattern... for example..here's the given string...if you want to learn how to use regexp, {url===http://somesite.com, text===click here}.
the pattern... {url===http://somesite.com, text===replacement text}
and the intended result... if you want to learn how to use regexp, click here.
of course, i'll extract the url and do something else with it... i'm just wondering what the regexp is for that pattern, and how i can extract things from the results returned.
I have been trying to create a visual noise pattern using bitmapData.noise, and with help from Rothrock and Kglad have created a working version.I checked with a colleague who is expert on the use of these visual patterns, and he suggested that the change speed is too fast: that the dots (pixels) need to change at just under 400 dots per second for an 800 x 600 stage.With beginner skills in AS3, I am unsure if there is any way to change the script to slow the rate of dot change in the bitmapData.noise function?
I am developing a mini flash game. Player control character and move left and right to collect money coin. There are 5 points that money and bomb release and move from top to bottom. When character collide with money then increase money else hit bomb age increase by 1. Once the age is 99, the game is over and the money is the final scores
Here is my code: package Class { import flash.events.Event; import flash.events.KeyboardEvent; import flash.events.MouseEvent; import flash.media.Sound; [Code] .....
This is my Game: Currently, the bomb and money random appear X, 100 with 15 money and 10 bombs in a screen. What I want is, how to amend it become money and bomb appear from specific point, after that the money and bomb when hit the wall will bounce back. An example similar game play with my game is [URL].
I'm doing my best to put together a little game my brother can change the graphics on to his own delight. Its a basic side scroller type thing. What I'm doing is programmatically creating the scenery in the background and making it move across the stage, but only when the right mouse button is pressed.
im trying to create a flash file that is randomly showing different objects/images, i believe i have the correct codes although i have encountered an error.
I can't understand why should I even use the Singleton pattern in ActionScript 3. Can anyone explain me this? Maybe I just don't understand the purpose of it. I mean how it differs from other patterns? How it works? I checked the PureMVC source and it's full of Singletons. Why are they using them in the View, Module, Controller?
I am working on a Flash project that initially had a simple template for the animation, but has grown to have different "states" with multiple templates (not under my control)Because of this, my update (ENTER_FRAME) loop is now starting to look a bit like this:
private function update():void { switch (state) { case "intro": switch(layoutState) {
I remember seeing someone a while back using actionscript a method to draw a pattern. I thought it was a really interesting take on as and kept in the back of my head for when the possibility came up.
If I place a pattern or object over a 3d object created in CS4, will it affect it by warping it in any way.I'm looking for a way to push a pattern over a 3d object, for the pattern to look like the 3d object is "under" it.
I would like to create a repeating pattern using a bitmap from my library as a background. I would like the pattern to always fill the stage area when the brower window is scaled. The code below works, but I think it may not be the most efficient way to handle this. Seems to be a little slow.
function onResizeStage(evt:Event):void{ backGroundSprite.graphics.beginBitmapFill(pattern(0, 0)); backGroundSprite.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, stage.stageWidth, stage.stageHeight); backGroundSprite.graphics.endFill(); }
How can I find a given bitmap pattern on a bitmap ( loaded jpeg )? Is there any flash classes / functions for this purpose?Here is the sample image and has 4 patterns.What I want is to get the bounding informations of the 4 patterns on the image ( x , y , width , height ).
I'm looking to get some good books on design patterns and I'm wondering what particular pattern you'd recommend for a Realtime Strategy Game (like Starcraft), MVC?. I'd like to make a basic RTS in Flash at some point and I want to start studying the best pattern for this.
Just curious. TweenLite/TweenMax is a very common animation library, and I was wondering how someone would classify the design pattern used in TweenLite.For those of you unfamiliar, here's some example code from their website:[code]
I plan to have the swf fill the browser window, and this should work fine for that. When people click on a button, I want the view to "zoom in" by scaling to 200% and setting the x and y coordinates appropriately.How can I do this with the repeating pattern, because the way I have made it is a series of movieclips. Is there a better way to make it so it is just one movieclip I can control the scale and position of?
ActionScript Code: tileWallpaper = function () { tileWidth = 200;
