I'm using AS 3.0, and I'm trying to change the frames inside a specific object's timeline.The change will be triggered by keyboard events, but I don't know whether to add the eventlistener to the stage or to this. Also, it doesn't seem to be responding to anytime I use a gotoAndStart() or gotoAndStop() it just ignores it completely. Is it calling the stage's timeline when I call this? It also doesn't help when i add this.gotoAndStart() or this.gotoAndStop(), so how do you change the frames outside of the main timeline?

Code:
if(this.hitTest(_root.ufo)){
Now I want to know if its possible to detect collisions with everything except (ignore) certain MCs because I only have 3 MCS I don't want it to care about, but there will be about 200 or more I want it to care for.
I am having an issue with the setVolume() function. My problem is that when I set volume of a specified sound object the entire flash file is affected, meaning that all sounds are affected (The ones created by AS). Not just the single sound I specified.
Here's the line, which "mutes" the sound:
Code:
music_main.setVolume(0);
The "music_main" object is created through these lines:
Code:
music_main = new Sound();
music_main.attachSound("MAIN_THEME");
Now my problem is what I stated above. All Sound Objects created are affected by the setVolume() function. I only want to change the "music_main" object.

I'm making a game that's similar to Pong. Basically instead of a long, skinny paddle, the paddle is wider -- but this creates some problems when hit testing.
I don't want the ball to be able to hit the side of the paddle, only the front of it (the side facing the other paddle, technically the side part). I'm basically wondering how I can run a hit test in AS3 but for only one side of the object. The object is a basic movieclip.
How to make sure the sheep will only appear on the green field on the left hand side? I use the following but they appear all over the place.
onClipEvent(load) {
_x=Math.floor(Math.random()*379+150) //where width is the width of your stage
_y=Math.floor(Math.random()*376+150) //where height is the height of your stage
}
How can I make an object following my cursor ( but not directly) through a specific path (something like a city plan) and every time my cursor change location the object would change path so it will stop where my cursor is?

Right, so here's the scenario: I have 4 objects, A, B, C and D. What I want is that C obscures A, but not B. Similarly, I want D to obscure B, but not A. A and B can overlap each other in any order, it doesn't matter.In other words, what I want is an object (C) to be able to cover one object (A) but not another (B), even if it comes into contact with it.Same with D, which can cover B but not A, even if it comes into contact with it. The problem is that I can't think of a layer configuration that allows this: D will always be higher than both A and B, and thus will obscure both.I'm not expecting anyone to come up with some unfathomably clever configuration, but I'm wondering if there's some kind of ActionScript that can do this. In particular, I would like A and B to be dynamic TextFields, and C and D to be MovieClips of any shape (i.e. not a rectangle).

make my hero go back to his shelter when he finds some food or when he approaches an enemy. It looks like this:
1. The hero is in the shelter.
2. The hero is hungry.
3. The hero leaves the base to hunt some animals down.
4. The hero is full and is headed back to the shelter.
5. He moves in the direction of where the base is.
So, once again, how do I make my hero go back to where he came from? How do I make my hero's x and y position to fit the way back home?
I'm making a game where targets popout from behind walls. I have 3 walls, each wall needs to have his own target. I'd like to make the game spawn the targets randomly behind each wall. I'll tween them to make them go up.
I assume I have to link the targets to their own class and delete them from the stage and have the script spawn them instead, right?
I'm trying to make it so that and object rotates to the mouse, but only within a specific range. In the class file for Object1, I want it to be able to rotate a maximum of 45 degrees in either direction from the rotation of Object2. So far this is all I could come up with:
[Code]....
The possible rotations of Object2 are 0, 45, 90, 135, 180, -135, -90, and -45. The code seems to work fine if the rotations are between -90 and 90 (the right half), but because the left half goes from -179 to 180 to 179, it obviously fails. How would I accomplish the effect I want?
In a movie a have a sound object, that i make it through (for example)
Code:
musica = new Sound();
musica.attachSound("fondo");
I have many other sounds in the movie but this object is for a loop... The problem is that when I set the volume for that object, through:
Code:
_root.musica.setVolume(0);
Or whatever value, all the other sounds are set to that volume too. I just want to mute the loop but also the buttons sounds are muted...
first time poster. Let's say a have flash(swf) object on my page, and I have a specific JavaScript class (lets call it "JSClass")that works with that flash object. JavaScript class has some methods for communicating with the flash object. When the flash object is embedded in to page via swfObject, I create an instance of the JSClass, and give it the id of the flash object on the page, so that instance can specifically communicate with that flash object. I have more than one same flash file on the page, and I need to differentiate calls to specific flash objects. Something like this:
[Code].....
How can I call "flashControl1.onFlashReady()" from flash? Note that flash doesn't know which JSCLass instance to target. How can target particular JSClass instances from flash object.

I have an object that moves around, and once it is pressed, I want it to move to a specific place and then continue to the next frame in the movie clip. This is what I have : a movie clip, the first frame has the stop(); command and contains approx 12 frames. The MC has this script attached to it :
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
if(_x >= 0){
_x = _x - 10
}if(_y >= 0){
_y = _y -10
}if(_x == 0 && _y == 0){
gotoAndPlay("/ball",2) // ball being the instance name of the mc
}}
The first two parts do move the object to where I want it but the third part will not work and I cant get it to move past frame 1. (Note : 0,0 is not the place I want it to move to, it is there because I was experimenting with the code and this was an easy place to assign to the movement).
Which code should I give to my button on the main timeline, to control a MC object (instance name "vid"), by forcing it to change to a specific frame?

View 1 RepliesThis has to be simple, if only I knew how. I'm an AS3 newbie, and am having difficulty setting up multiple specific EventListeners within a code generated display object container.
I am generating a 'page' (Sprite) with a heap of 'cards' (Sprites) on it. Each of those cards, in turn, contains a selection of text boxes and other objects generated from database output using a 'for' loop. My hope is to attach an EventListener to each 'card' so that a MouseEvent will let me manipulate the data that lead to the content of that actual card (the i-th iteration of my for loop). I've been playing with everything I can think of (limited repertoire of thoughts though) and the best I've managed is for my EventListener to access the final set of data, whichever 'card' I click on. I've summarised and attached my code for the function, how to get back to the i-set of data from the EventListener attached to the i-th card. I can handle the PHP and MySQL side of things but am fumbling my way into the OOP of AS3.
I'm looking for an efficient way to filter a specific color from a bitmapData object in ActionScript 3. Currently I use a loop with readByte32(). This takes about a second to process which is unacceptable. I have been trying to get paletteMap() to work but so far haven't been able to grasp its API (any truly useful links? Google has failed me...). Here's my current logic, which I want to improve:

View 2 RepliesSo, for sending to individual streams we have to reference the connected netStream we want to send to in some way like this:
sendStream.peerStreams[0].send("MyFunction",param1,param2);
and I have to determine which peer I'm sending to by their ID such as "peerID1234"
I know that you can check the peerID of the stream by doing:
sendStream.peerStreams[0]["farID"]
how can I make my send stream function know to use the array index where the peerID is?
so basically it could be like:
sendStream.peerStreams[where peerStreams[]["farID"] == peerID].send("MyFunction",param1,param2);
