ActionScript 3.0 :: Save Debug Information To A Text File?

Nov 1, 2010

I have an as3 game that I am trying to debug. To do this, I allow the game to play itself repeatedly over-night (which generates information for around 500k games) and then I analyze the info in the morning. I would like to save the debug info to a text file instead of using trace statements. Currently, the game creates about ten strings per play which are printed to the screen. Is there an easy way to save these strings to a text file?

Uses Php To Save Variables To Web Folder On Site In Text File

Dec 2, 2009

I have build a flash form that uses php to save variables to a web folder on my site in a text file. There is a .swf file with dynamic txt fields in the same folder it which pulls the data from the txt file. It doesnt seem to pull it as real time as I would like. sometime just once and not after that.When I update the form the text file saves to the web folder ok, but I have to refresh the link to pull the data in or empty browsing history etc.is there a way around anyone can think of so everytime I update the flash form the data come in straight away or after a few seconds.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Importing Variables (information) From User Maintained Text Files.?

Jun 17, 2009

i am making a quick and dirty flash help source for my companies site.  Later on i will tweak I will pretty it up. I am going with two movie clips that i believe will be sufficient for now as seen the layout below....[code]....

MC_1 :Is the selection menu.I want to import from a text file the different help sections or catagories....eg.. Setup, Administration, Customizing, etc......Then i want to import from text files that are labelled and corrisponding to each section that will list the actual different help selections...eg..(Setup) would have sub menu options of System Requirements,Server Install, Client Install.I would have these sub menus in listed in different text files for each section heading.
 
MC_2 :Then when somene clicks on the submenu options like 'Server Install' in the given example Movie Clip 2 would import from yet another text file the actual help information in an HTML format
 
Questions:For MC_1 I am not sure how I should go about creating it!I assume I will be creating a MC inside of it, one for each variable it pulls in from the Header.txt file.....how do i do that when the number of variables can change?And then it will pull in and create the sub menus one for each variable that it finds in its own text file, again the number can change?From there i should have no problems having the sub menu, when clicked on, would pull the text info in html format into MC_2.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Input Text: Save Pieces In Different Variables?

Jan 17, 2011

I have an input textfield where the user can enter a long string of numbers, seperated by spaces. Example of this is "2 4 10 20". I made the textbox and made sure it only numbers and spaces can be entered. However, I am looking all over google for a way to split these numbers and save them in a different var when a space is encountered. I don't really know how to even start doing this.

saving in vars does not have to happen in runtime, but only when a button is pressed.

is there also a way to prevent the user from entering a space right after another space?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Grab Class Variables From Loaded SWF?

Sep 22, 2009

I have a project that works quite beautifully right now. I have come to my next task. Creating swfs that are loaded into another swf. This newly loaded swf needs to grab some variables from the main swf's document class or global variables class that I have created. I have set the class path as such that it can access the classes as needed. I did not set a document class.

Structure of loaded swf:

core.swf -> loadedBackground.swf -> interactive.swf

1.) Classes are all located in a folder titled classes

2.) cores.swf is outside the classes folder and is linked to document class within the classes folder: BuildCourse.as

3.) swfs folder contains the loadedBackground.swf and interactive.swf

4.) How can interactive.swf grab variables from the main.swf after it is compiled?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Load XML And Grab Data To Send As Variables To A PHP Form

Sep 3, 2009

I have an .SWF that is a "Share With A Friend" and the text fields are filled in and then the SWF sends the variables to sendToFriend.php and then the email is sent out.. The PHP is working fine and I have all the right codes to send that information from the SWF to to PHP, but the client wants another feature I can't figure out..

They want me to grab data from an XML and use those variables as well, because the XML will have the USER EMAIL and I need to grab the specific data from the XML and I can't find anything that does this..

I barely know where to start. Maybe a simple tutorial that doesn't just load the XML and display the content (I have found that), but rather something that loads the XML, then refers to a specific child and turns the text to a variable to get sent to PHP..

EXAMPLE XML

<client>Joe</client>
<email>JOE@JOE.com</client>

How do I load the XML and directly refer to the <email> information so my PHP file can grab "JOE@JOE.com" ???

ActionScript 3.0 :: Save Information On .swf On Website?

Feb 1, 2012

How do I make a flash document that records numbers on a server, so that whenever any user uses it, it updates so that when another user accesses it, they will see the current value and can update it. I'm thinking of just starting off simple and making a button that when you click it, the total count for the number of clicks increases by one, but I want to make it so two users using it at the same time will see each others' click and have it updated on their screen (with refreshing).

ActionScript 2.0 :: Save Information From 1 Scene?

Sep 8, 2009

I may be asking for something that is just too simple with this request, but is it possible to save information from one page without the use of PHP, ASP and other server scripts.

I have tried using Shared Objects but it just doesn't seem to work for my example as people have already been sorted into time order to create a leaderboard so not all information has to be stored.

I have attached a basic example of what my leaderboard looks like and all I want it to do is remember the leaderboard for the next time somebody logs onto that machine ... ? I may still be able to use Shared Object but I am not sure how to in this situation.
