ActionScript 3.0 :: Stop An Event After 10 Seconds By Using Timer?

Oct 6, 2011

The following code for starting an event is quite okay. But how can I stop it after 10 seconds as it won't require anymore after 10 seconds of animation. I am using actionscript 3.

Code:
var timer:Timer = new Timer(1000, 1);
timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER_COMPLETE, onTimerComplete);

ActionScript 3.0 :: Difference Between Timer.stop() And Timer.reset()?

Aug 27, 2008

What is the difference between Timer.stop() and Timer.reset() functions because it seems that the 2 functions do the same thing? I image Timer.stop() to stop the timer and when Timer.start() is called the timer starts from where it stopped. For example, if I have a 3 sec. timer (3000 ms). If I stop the timer after 2.5 sec. and start the timer again, I would expect the timer to expire/trip within .5 sec.

Flash - Timer Object With TimerEvent.TIMER Event Globally Accessible To All Objects?

Feb 16, 2012

I am working on a very simple game in Flash. I want to make all the animations framerate agnostic, so that I can change the framerate without affecting the flow and speed of the game.I read somewhere that if you want to do that, you simply create a Timer object and attach an event listener to this timer.

What if I have many objects that have to listen to the same timer? See the code to understand what I am trying to do. At this stage nothing breaks, but the event does not fire.Here is the Main class, the one that runs on swf execution:

public class Main extends MovieClip {
private static var _stage:Stage;
private static var _timer:Timer;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Add 10 Seconds To Timer?

Apr 12, 2011

I've got a problem that must be simple to solve but it seems beyond me, I'm new to AS3 so please be as explicit as you can in your explanation. I have a timer counting down from 60 seconds, what I want though is when the user clicks, ten seconds gets added to the time. I've tried many different ways but none work, I understand why they don't work but I can't think of a way that does.[code].....

ActionScript 3.0 :: Add 10 Seconds To Timer

Apr 12, 2011

have a countdown timer counting down from 60 seconds. What I would like to happen is when the user clicks on the stage I would like the timer to increase by 10 seconds and then carry on counting down. e.g The user clicks when the timer is at 45 seconds so then the time jumps to 55 seconds and resumes counting down, whilst the time is displayed in a text box.

I asked in another forum and they pointed me to a link on adobe for the delay property. I gave this a go and I got it to add 10 seconds but then it kept on firing every 10 seconds (as you might expect) but not really what I was after.

here is the code for the timer.

Code:
var count:Number = 60;
var myTimer:Timer = new Timer(1000,count);
myTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, countdown);
myTimer.start();

ActionScript 3.0 :: Input Seconds To Timer?

Dec 24, 2011

I would really like just something simple and basic and easy to reuse on multiple timers.

I put in a number, lets say 350 (seconds) and the desired textfield displays: 05:50

I'm really no good at math, and most solutions I find I don't understand what's going on to simplify it for my use.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Timer And Swap - Each 2 Seconds MovieClip

Mar 29, 2010

I am trying to make a timer that swaps two movie clips, so that each two seconds? Here is the code:
var leftPillar:MovieClip = new Right();
leftPillar.x=150;
leftPillar.y=250;
leftPillar.width=550;
leftPillar.height=400;
The idea is that each 2 seconds the movie clip should change to which ever one is now visible. What is currently happening is that only one of the clips ever shows, (newLeftPillar).

ActionScript 2.0 :: Simple Timer - Delay For 20 Seconds (IF Statement)

Apr 19, 2004

I'm building a continous move in flash, and I'm displaying some text and images and want to hold the timeline for about 20 seconds and then resume play again. I'm trying to write a simple timer in AS to keep from having to create 10000 frame long movie clips. Here's what I have so far:

stop();
this.onEnterFrame {
time = getTimer();
if (time == 20) {
play();
}}

Unfortunately, this isn't working for me, and 'm unsure why. I suspect two things,
A: my "time" var takes only a snapshot value of the timer and not a continuous value, so the timer never reaches the value of 20. Or,
B: I have somesort of syntax wrong and the if never gets a chance to load.

AS3 :: Use Same Function For Both A Timer Event And Mouse Event In It?

Jul 18, 2010

so today my question is how can we have 1 function triggered by both a Timer event and a Mouse event? 'm trying to avoid having to re-write/re-name a function just because I also have a Mouse event that triggers it and not just a Timer event.

Issue:

I have a addThis bubble fade in with icons on a button rollover, the addThis bubble will fade out after the timer is finished, but I also have a close button in that bubble which needs to use the same function that the timer uses. (want to avoid writing 2 exactly alike functions)

I'm hoping this there is an easy workaround for this like event:null or something.[code]./...
