ActionScript 3.0 :: Creating An Opponent And Attack On Certain Angle Only?
Nov 22, 2011
I'm a design base student and planning to make some interactive game, but I'm still quite a novice when comes to programming...Hopefully can get some suggestion on how to programme an enemy with some artificial intelligence as shown below:
I'm tring to make a still enemy(char) which will throw random items(star with "R" ) on stage....and the character I'm controlling need to dodge the random items that throw towards him. The programming process went on quite well, but I just realize I can't figure out how to throw the items randomly within the given angle (90 degrees)
So far I'm only alble to shoot items in 1 direction only but not in random directions (like those classic jet fighter game). I try google for the solutions but all require complex math equation which include sin, cos, tan. Which I do not understand at all. Is there a simpler solution which do not involve complex calculation, or workaround method ?

I am currently making a game, similar to StreetFighter,where enemies will come on from the side and you fight them. Now i have the character movement and attacks fully scripted, and have made an enemy, and i make it move towards the character using:
onClipEvent(load){
movethy = 7;
scale = _xscale;[code].....
Now this works quite well and the enemy stops when it hits the character, but the problem is, it wont complete a full attack, instead it plays a few frames of the attack MC. Now i have every attack in a different MC (Frames 2-5) inside the Enemy MC. How can i make the enemy pause when it reaches the character, then choose an attack to use? From there i'll be on my way and can script the hittest and so forth.

How to create motion blur which would be realistic at an angle? Applying simple blur filter looks fine if an object is moving vertically or horizontally but if its moving at an angle, its no good...

Flash Tranformation Matrix via JsFL. I have to write a JsFL script that creates a text on my Flash scene, and rotate it with a random angle. Imagine I want to create and rotate a "Hello World!" at 45 degrees, my code looks like that:
rotateAngle = 45;
//creates my new text at x:0, y:0 coordinates
fl.getDocumentDOM().addNewText({left:0, top:0, right:10, bottom:10});
fl.getDocumentDOM().setTextString('Hello World!');
var mat = fl.getDocumentDOM().selection[0].matrix;
[Code] .....
The problem is : the rotation applied to my text is 58.3 instead of 45. I have to admit that I'm kind of noob with matrix... so I used the "matrix transformation for rotation" here : [URL].

I want to know how to make a character attack in a game. I've made a platformer game in which a character moves and jumps and collects the score balls, but the only thing I can't do is make him hit enemies.

so I'm still pretty new to AS3, but I'm making a game for my final project in school. I have to make a side scrolling beat em up game, where you hit the X button to do three different attack animations. I want the next attack to not start until the last ends, and I want the attack animations to reset if you wait too long between X presses.What I've gotten so far works, but is very clunky and I already see reasons down the road for why it's not gunna work well.
ActionScript Code:
var attackTimer:Timer = new Timer(1000);
var attacks:Array = new Array();

I have a website with a flex application. The flex application has no user input - except for clicks for navigation. The website also uses no scripting language - i.e. no php, asp, jsp or cfm.
The website just consists of one page which contains the flash file for the flex application. The source code of this page is here: [URL]
I have been advised (by a software program used by my client) that this website is vulnerable to a reflective type XSS attack and have been advised to 'sanitize' all user input.
respect to XSS and would respectfully like to ask that AFAIK there is no user input. What should I sanitize and how?

im currently making an "AS3 beat em up" ala streets of rage or double dragon.Currently i have my character moving and a few animations done and i am trying to figure out how to make attacks work.I have some "basic" animation for his attack, but im not sure how to get it to work correctley.What happens is, if you press control (the attack button) whilst the character is walking he just keeps moving and is stopped on the attack frame.I want the character to stop moving if the attack is pressed and once it is released start moving again.
hero.gotoAndStop('still');
var left:Boolean = false;
var right:Boolean = false;[code].......

A client of mine has had 2 sites (both Flash sites) attacked over the last 12 months, so he's been asking: should he go for a static HTML site or stick with a Flash site? Is there ways to make a Flash site more secure?

I'm using Flash CS4 Pro.In Motion Editor, the way that the blur works, it allows you to blur an object on X and/or Y axis.That means you blur horizontaly or/and verticaly.I would like to make a blur motion at another angle, by example 30 degree.

I have a carousel built and it works fine, but there is an angle on it that I want to get rid of. When the images move along the carousel, I want them to always stay the same on the X axis. Here is the code, I have tried mangling it in every possible combination, but it is outside my AS3 knowledge on how to get the angle changed.
import mx.utils.Delegate;
var numOfItems:Number;
var radiusX:Number = 1150;
var radiusY:Number = 50;
var centerX:Number = Stage.width / 2;
var centerY:Number = Stage.height / 6;
var speed:Number = 0.002;

how to get angle of mouse its very simple.use this Script (copy and past in your file). A sample file which runs only on CS4 is attached.
//Start............................................. .................................................. .................
// Make a line (o-----------------------) and take its left side as center named 'mcArrow'
mcArrow._x = mcArrow._y =200;

I'm at a bit of a coders block, and I'm sure it's quite simple. I tried using the following:Code:((angle-180)%360) + 180But for angles < 180 degrees, it works just fine, but after that it get's a little funny. I know why it's doing that, I'm just looking for a way to fix it.

I have the xspeed and yspeed of a round ball, xspeed is distance ball moves to the right each frame and yspeed distance ball moves down each frame.I have 3 different gradients of slopes, one is at 15 degrees off the horizontal.How can I calculate the xspeed and yspeed of the ball after a collision with, for instance, the 15 degree slope.

I need to limit an angle so it fits into a segment. I have drawn and links to a diagram below to better describe what I am after. I am trying to calculate this for a computer program, where I have an angle (slope), and a point (the mouse pointer). The distance does not matter to me, just the angles. If the point is within b1 (green area) then that's fine. But if the point is within b2 or b3 (red or orange) areas, then the angle should snap back to the limit of the green area (along the line s).
The main problem I am having in figuring this out, is snapping the angle to the correct side e.g. If the point is in the red area, then the angle should snap to the angle s on the red side and vice versa. I am also having trouble because s could be any angle, so I am being tripped up because I can't just do something like this:

I know 3D rotation is well documented on SO and many other sites, but despite reading countless explanations I still haven't figured out where I'm going wrong. My background is in art and design, not math and programming, and I'm never really certain if my angle of attack (no pun intended) is the right one. Rather than paste a patchwork of my dismal code, I'm including an image describing my problem. What I'd really like is a step-by-step worded breakdown of how to solve it. Pseudo code is useful, but I will learn more if someone will just aim me in the right direction or point out common pitfalls.

I'd like my text to be positioned on a 45 degree angle. Is there an easy way to do that? (In the worst case, I could always make a png out of the text). But, I hope that there's away to do it in Flex. I don't need an animated effect.
var angleText:Text= new Text;
angleText:Text.text = "My text is angled!"
angleText:Text.x= 200;
angleText:Text.y= 300;

I have a method that takes a "distance" and "angle" parameter. How can I take the angle parameter to get x and y values, and incorporate the distance into that?
I am assuming that I would have to do something with a right angle triangle.

How can change the angle of a premade BevelFilter with AS3.0? (made in the Flash interface, not generated by ActionScript). I tried doing:
ActionScript Code:
myObj.filters[0].angle = 225;
But it doesn't seem to change not even when I trace the value out. When I trace myObj.filters[0] I get returned [object BevelFilter], meaning that the filter does exist.

I have managed to get the app working fine, but i'm tryin to test it out in different angles but everytime i change it seems to go into the same angle.[code]Can somebody tell me why for everytime i changed the value of the degrees, it does not updat the movement of the ball please
