ActionScript 2.0 :: Function To Discover What Movieclip It Exists In?
Dec 30, 2004I have done some reading up on it and could use some further clarification if anyone has a few moments to enlighten me. I would like to understand how paths work inside a function. Question 1: Is it possible for a function to discover what movieclip it exists in? When i trace(this) within my actionscripted function it returns object Object. (sorry code is on another machine)
Question 2: When I am attaching a function to _level0.myMainClip.mySubClip from _level0 timeline in actionscript and I use "this" within that function am I refeering to _level0.myMainClip.mySubclip? or the function within that movieclip or _level0 since that is where I am creating the function?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Referencing An Object That Exists Later In The Timeline?
Jul 7, 2010I'm trying to:Jump from frame 1 to a frame later in the main timeline Reference an object that exists on the stage in that frame, but not in frame 1
Like so:
ActionScript Code:
function endGame():void {
gotoAndPlay("gameOver");
scoreField.visible = false;
}
A movieclip with the instance name 'scorefield' exists in the "gameOver" frame, yet for some reason, I just get a "Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference." This code is all within a function. By the time the reference to scoreField is executed, the timeline is at the right frame.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Local Variable Physically Exists (in Memory) Outside Of The Function?
Dec 23, 20101- Variable Scope : Accessibility and existence are used almost interchangeably in various documents I've read. I'd like to know if a local variable physically exists (in memory) outside of the function it was declared in, and is not accessible from other methods, or if its existence ceases outside the function.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Check If Object Exists To Prevent Error #1010?
Oct 19, 2010I am trying to avoid this error:TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.It is being caused when I reference an object that does not exist. My code automically goes through an array of objects and will sometimes try to reference a location that does not exist (like [-1][6] for example).I am trying to set a variable based on another variable from an object in that array like so:ob.upleft = Map.baseTileArr[ob.upY][ob.leftX].walkable;If it does not exist, my program stops and I am thrown that error. My question is, how can I check to see if that object's variable in the array even exists before assigning the variable?
I've tried this, but it did not work:
if(Map.baseTileArr[ob.upY][ob.leftX]){
ob.upleft = Map.baseTileArr[ob.upY][ob.leftX].walkable;
