ActionScript 3.0 :: Show A Question From A List Of 10 Question At Random That Also Has A Timer Set For 2 Secs?
Mar 14, 2011
I'm trying to show a question from a list of 10 question at random that also has a timer set for 2 secs. After the 2 secs are up, another question is selected from an array. Below is my code. Is there sometime I'm missing or forgot to add? I keep getting the error 1120: Access of undefined property changword.
PHP Code:
//Randominzes Arrayvar randomizedwords: Array = new Array;var num:int = new int;var i:int = new int;for (i=0; i<10; i++) {while (words[num]== ""){num = Math.ceil(Math.random()*10);}randomizedwords.push(words[num]);
[code]....

I'm using a timer which triggers a gotoAndPlay after 5 secs. It works fine but I am now trying to work out if it is possible that if I press a button I would be able to stall the timer. i.e the goToAndPlay only happens after 5 sec otherwise the it is prevented and the the timer goes back to zero. I know its a bit difficult to describe but I have attached the .fla.
In terms of the code I'm using: I have the function:
stop();
function pause(){
//play();
gotoAndStop(21);
clearInterval(timer);
};
This function is called when the playhead hits a certain frame: i.e.
stop();
timer = setInterval(pause, 3000);

I'm designing in AS2 - because for some reason, i thought this tutorial was made for AS2 - is this AS3 code and is that the problem??The Problem. The game runs fine, but the score keepers (both for hit and missed balloons) only show the numbers 1 and 5. so if i pop one balloon, it says 1. then for a score of 2, 3, and 4, it is blank. until i pop that 5th balloon, then it says 5, then back to blank for a score of 6.Even stranger (to me) is that the game has a count-down timer that counts backwards from 60. it also only shows then the time has a 1 or a 5 in it. same as the scores.

i have a shooting game that works with some sort of rounds, for instance, this round is gonna show 4 enemies on the screen that the user has to shoot. I show the 4 enemies at a half seconds interval of each one so it doesnt all appear on the same time. Using something like:
enemiesShowTimer = new Timer(0.5 * 1000, 1);
enemiesShowTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, showEnemyAtTime);
enemiesShowTimer.start();
The player has 2 seconds to kill each enemy after they appear, so i also use this:
enemiesCleanTimer = new Timer(roundConfig.getSecondsPerEnemy() * 1000, 1);
enemiesCleanTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, cleanEnemies);
enemiesCleanTimer.start();
The problem is, after the player dies i change scene and if i still have like 3 alive, enemies, the threads will try to run the methods and it will crash. I'm using always the same variable to the start the timer whenever i need it. How can i solve this? Will i have to store each "thread" (timer) on a list and then stop each one separately? Because the way it is, the other threads are in some sort of "limbo" and i cant stop then, just the last one.

my current little project requires text to be displayed for random time intervals. The timer code is as follows:
Code:
var timer:Timer = new Timer(Math.random() * 10000);
timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, changeQuotes);
timer.start();
HOWEVER the random intervals are not random at all. In actuality the interval is *always* about 5 seconds between each text change for the current code. I've tried *A LOT* of different things to try and get it to be random but no matter what I do, the interval between is always the same. I want the intervals between to be random e.g. text appears for 2 seconds then goes and the next text appears for 5 seconds, then the next for 1 second, then the next for 8 seconds etc etc.

I am running a sweepstakes like thing and want my users to all be able to load the page and have the exact same countdown and number generator running. I tried this in AS3 but each user caches their own swf file and gets a different result from the random number generator, and the as3 countdown is a few seconds off from each user. How would I go about making a countdown that is the exact same for each user looking at it at the same time and then a random number generator where every user will see the same result it gives? Is it even possible?
Sorry I wasnt clear on this. I would like to have it where the viewers could see the number being generated when the timer runs out. Kind of like watching the lotto on TV. Again, not sure if this is possible. I have looked around, I know as3, some php, and some javascript. I have given up on doing this in flash.

I am new to using Flash, but with some helpful YouTube tutorials and various Google searches, I was able to create a slide show that automatically transitions to the next after 6 seconds. I also thought it would be neat if I could give users the ability to go back or forward or jump specifically to a certain slide. But my problem is that after I click a button, the timer seems to be off.

I am currently trying to learn how to use MySQL, PHP/XML, and Flash together. What I have so far is a list box that loads the MySQL table "subject" through the following code: PHP File:

This code works exactly how I want it to but what I now want to do is have each list item in the list (when clicked) show another list component that will display the corresponding product items from the MySQL "items" table. I was thinking of creating a new flash file for each set of items and then have the subject list display the SWF files but I want to be able to add new subjects without having to go back into flash and do more coding.

I have an object that is instantiated, then placed into a property within a singleton (single instance) object. When a button is clicked an event is dispatched carrying a payload that references the display object that is held within the Singleton. When the event is heard, my view object adds the object to the display list e.g. addChild().The Item shows. Now If I hit another button an event is dispatched, and a new item is added to the display list via the method above and is seen. The 1st object is removed from the display list Here is my problem. When I click the button to load the 1st Object the above process is executed again but the object does not show.
I can run trace statements from the object that is supposed to be visible and they run fine. I even do a check to see if the visible property is set to true, and it is, but not object is on my screen. Code for this process.
//custom event carries the name of the page aka display object. this is a string
dispatchEvent(new MenuEvent(MenuEvent.CHANGE_VIEW_STATE, event.payload));
//When the event is heard, the following condinial is run

I am aware that the follow will show a hand cursor:
component.mouseChildren = true;
component.useHandCursor = true;
component.buttonMode = true;
When I do the above on a List component, the hand button is shown and the whole component loses it's interactivity (Hand cursor is shown even on scrollbars).
So how can I show the hand cursor only when rolling over the list items?
