ActionScript 3.0 :: Reset And Start Another Game?
Jan 1, 2011
i have spent several days on this and still can't get it to work. The code below is ok, I am playing a bowling game using the keyboard and timer with a text readout of the elapsed time, the bowl moves a set number of pixels on the screen. whilst in full screen mode I would like to click a start/play button on the screen to start the game and timer again, everything is in frame 1. Also I would like the game to just accept the keycode 77 and keyboard event (2 events only to move the bowl) and then wait for the start/play button click.

Just new in forum and just new in as3 programming. All i want to do is to make some physics simulations (i'm physics teacher...). So i made my first sim with the following code, just to simulate a simple motion with constant velocity. It works ok, except the part i need to reset the display by the means to start the motion all over again (reset button). Then the motion starts but the traces of the previous motion remains on stage. I tried the null command (sp=null) but the sim could not start again because the sp nedded to be non-null...

i am making a quiz. My problem is that once the user completes the quiz and wants to start again the quiz is already on the last question. How do i make it so that once the user clicks start again the questions and answers arrays start from the beginning, sort of reset themselves.

I have a kiosk set up to load external swf's, and to keep them up as long as they are being played with. Once the swf sits for two minutes without being touched it goes back the attract sequence, which leads to the menu, where you pick your swf...
I am having trouble with the timer I have set to restart the program. I have it set up to reset and start the Timer whenever the stage is clicked, which works fine the first time you open the swf. But if you exit the swf, and later it is opened again, it will restart after two minutes whether it is in use or not. Does anyone know what might cause this?

I am trying to make a game in Flash using Action Script 3,
I have everything in the game and the game works, but I am trying to add a restart function so the game will go back to the start of the level when you pres the 'R' key.
My game starts off with a title screen on Frame 1, and there are 2 levels, 1 is in frame 2 and the other is in frame 3.
When you click the level you want on the title screen it takes you to the frame which has the required level in it by using a gotoAndStop[code]...

I am a student working on a project with flash. I am simply trying to make a flash game using Actionscript 3 in Adobe Flash CS5. Everything is working fine, i can walk and jump, but I want the game to restart if the Main character touches an object and dies (like spikes in a pit). I have a main menu in frame 1 and the first level on frame 2. The main character is called "player_mc" and the object that kills him is called "dies".
Code:
//The Code For The Character (Player_mc)
import flash.events.KeyboardEvent;
import flash.events.Event;

Basically what happens is 5 eggs fall from the top of the screen. What I'm trying to have happen is, to have flash recognize when all 5 have been clicked and goto and stop on frame 3. The other problem is I want the animation to reset when the timer runs out. Thus clearing all current eggs off the stage. I've zipped the 2 files I'm working with the (fla and as files).

I am new to flash and im trying to make a game. Im stuck on hitTest. I have many black boxes falling down and I want the game to reset when the black boxes touch my red circle. I used this code for my boxes:
[AS]
this.createEmptyMovieClip("canvas_mc",10);
myInterval = setInterval(addbox1,500);
function addbox1() {
[Code] .....
My red circle is controlled by the mouse. The code for that is:
[AS]onClipEvent (load) {
startDrag(this, true); }[/AS]

My project is almost complete except for this last little thing that's been bugging me. A tutorial I followed had you start the game by clicking a button but I would like to change that to pressing the spacebar starts the game. I tried:
if(Key.isDown)(Key.SPACE))
{
_root.ship.newGame();
}

I started off game development on Android about a year ago and want to expand to developing browser games as well. Is flash worth learning? Or should I go for using an engine like Unity and learn game development in c#. Mostly I'm just worried that I would be wasting my time learning flash if I'm not going to get much use from it.

I am making a big big big game, and I came across a huge problem. My game has over 60 unique units, which mean that the library of my .fla file is REALLY huge. Flash just can't handle it anymore, and crashes every 5 min. I can't optimize it(already did) and I can't cut through the content. I think I found a solution: I will load my units from external .swf. Sooo, the thing is, I want to load these swf only once, at the start of the game. Here is how it goes: I divided my units in many packets, and set every unit to be "exported for Actionscript" in the library. This way, ill load the .swf and its library at the beginning of the game and I will be able to attach the units MC over runtime.

I'm a student at Drexel University and I just completed a basic platformer for a actionscript class. My professor docked me some points for the game not working until the user actually clicks within the swf. I've heard that this problem is caused on mac osx, but I don't have any concrete evidence to get the points back. Here's a link to the game if you want to check it out.

What resources should I look at to learn how to create a very simple platform game, with a character who can simply jump on platforms and avoid enemies to reach the end of the level? I have made games like this with other languages but never flash.

The game is like Asteroids where four rocks are placed in the corners of the stage at the beginning and then start moving randomly around the stage. The problem is the timer used is started the moment that the flash file starts not the moment the player clicks the start button. So if you are on the start screen for 5 seconds before you click play when the game actually begins the rocks are where they would be after 5 seconds of play, which could be right over the player.

I have a game with multiple levels, which is working as I want it to. I would like to add just one extra bit of functionality. As each level starts, I would like a movieclip to play and then disappear after a second or so. The movieclip will just say "level 1", "level 2" etc, without any interaction. Ideally it will appear as the level loads, and then fade out to disappear.

I'm designing a platformer game, in which the code is all held within the character MC. I want to pause the game using something like 'delete this.onEnterFrame' as a start point to terminate code. The code layout within the character is like so:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
...
this.onEnterFrame = function(){ //within clip event
...
if(btnon == 1){ // when button pressed(on stage)) global value of 1 is true
delete this.onEnterFrame;
}...}}
Due to the fact its within a clip event structure, it doesn't pause it, instead it slows everything down. Would I have to construct all my code in a frame layer or can I still use an MC to terminate this?

I have an issue with adding a reset button to my drag and drop movie clips.The problem is, if a student drags a movie clip to a wrong location on the SWF file I want them to be able to hit a reset button that would take them the same SWF that they opened and what would showup would a clear page for them to restart their drag and drop exercise.I know how to make the button for this just want the proper action script to be able for user to start over with no movie clip symbols on the page.

I have been building a simple word game. It is smple but works fine. I am now trying to enhance some of the features.I would like to see if I can display one letter of each word so the Player has a hint. Think of this as a beginners level.The words are random from a text list. Either I can make the letters invisible and the game starts without a hint or I am able to select a letter using charAt() or creating a new variable substring()from the word which is the displayed repeatedly on the stage(not what I want) I have not been able to find a way to display one letter and display it in the correct order within the word and keep the remaining letters invisible.

With out getting into a ton of background I am wondering if there is a command that will reset all the variables in a swf at once with out having to do them individually?
I've googled and searched my books and can't find anything. Another option I could see is having the current flash reload, that would set everything back to the start but I couldn't find how to do that either.
Anyone know?

I'm trying to broaden my horizons with it and so I'm trying to do an update of a quiz program my employer has. Everything has worked well, except for the timer. The button that starts the game has two options, "study" or "exam"; if the study is selected, there is no countdown, just the score keeper. If the exam option is selected, the timer is show (counting up). But, press "Start" and while the quiz begins, the timer, in either case, does not.
I'm going to post the actionscript for the timer that was already there, as well as the start button. I'm hoping someone can explain how this timer is supposed to work and why it's not; and where the disconnect lies in pressing the start button and making it run.The timer is embedded in a movie clip, with two dynamic text boxes, that are for some have no instance name; and actionscript spread out over several frames.Frame 1:
Minutes = "00";
Seconds = "00";
Centiseconds = "00";
