I'm working on a project with AS3. On timeline I have a movie clip which contains a timer (only one frame). The timer for testing purposes has been set to six seconds. In timeline are two labels (page1 and page2). Timer is on page1. PROBLEM: I would like timer move to page 2 on scene1 when time is zero (0). how to do that. Here is my script:
[Code]...
I'm having a little trouble but I think the solution is simple. I have a button in a movie trying to start another movie rooted in scene1. I have some code placed in movie 1 to try and play movie 2, both movies are in a scene1 layer.
[Code]...
In my case, the timer I make doesn't reduce its time whenever a function is called. What code will I change or add in order to reduce the time in my timer? [code]At this point the timer.start(); is placed on a frame so that the timer starts as it enters the frame.

I want that the parent html page remains there ,instead I want a child html frame has a new page after user's clicking the list item of the embedded flash movie.

View 2 Replieswhat I'm trying to do is Instance a rectangle and move it across the screen, and as it's moving, make more rectangles. For some reason though, it's only making one rectangle, and the timer is taking way more than what I thought would be 100 milliseconds. Any help would be appreciated. >

I am creating a flash game with a timer and as you answer questions I would like the time to increase or decrease but I can't seem to figure out how to do so.
View 1 RepliesOk I have this 100% width/height Flash embedded and when the user moves the mouse I want to display a panel, which disappears after x seconds if there is no more mouse movement.
I think I need an addEventListener, but I am not sure MOUSE_MOVE is the correct one. When the mouse stops moving I need to start x seconds to hide the panel, so I think with a timer?

Anyone know if its possible to change the time for a timer i.e.
var tMovieTimer:Timer=new Timer(10); gives 10 mili secs. is there a way to change it to say 30 later or do I have to create a new one?
I'm working on updating a quiz game my employer has. One problem I encountered was that the timer that runs during the "exam" mode of the game wouldn't work, so I found a work around by replacing it with a timer that did. All that it is, is a dynamic text box on the first frame of the questions, with the following script embedded in the start button to make it run:
start_time = getTimer();
countdown = 7200000;
onEnterFrame = function () {
elapsed_time = getTimer()-start_time;
[Code]....
When the game ends following the completion of question # 20 (there's about 200+ questions programed into it, with the 20 chosen at random) the game is redirected to a frame with results page; and here the time stops, using this code: count=(stop); Rudimentary, but effective - at least in stopping the timer. On this page is the option to save the results, with input found on this page (score, name, date and time completed) being output on another page, in a form the user can save or print off. What I can't figure out is how to output the elapsed time paused in the resutls screen, to dynamic text box in the save form. What script do I want, to send this information to the proper text box at the end?
every time it gets to zero it goes back to 59:59:59:59.i need it to stay at 00:00:00:00 or even better make it flash.
var thisYear:Number = 2011;var thisDay:Number = 28;var thisMonth:Number = 2;var thisHours:Number = 19;var thisMin:Number = 30;var thisSec:Number = 0;var countdownXML:XML = new XML();countdownXML.ignoreWhite = true;countdownXML.load( 'countdown.xml'[code].....

i want to gor from movieclip to scene 1, where i have set my menu on timeline.
Actually i have main movieclip on main timeline of scene 1, and inside that main movieclip , i'm having number of sub movieclips, so from that any movieclip i want go back return to scene 1.
how to set variable time for a single timer, like I first setup this timer:
private function timer():void{
var randomTimer:Timer=new Timer(time,0);
randomTimer.addEventListener("timer", somefunction);
[Code].....
So how can I influence the time inside the timer? Do I create a global timer, remove the listener and recall the timer function? Would this work since the timer has already been declared, I a re-declare a timer?

how would i go about having the endDate to be the current time and date + 30 minutes ?
I've looked all over the web and everyone can teach you how to make a timer for your game or a countdown, but I can't seem to find out how to add time to an already counting timer. So here is my counter class:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Stage;
import flash.text.TextField;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.utils.Timer;
[Code] .....
That works without any issues or problems and just keeps counting upwards at a speed of 100ms, what I want to know is how to add say 30 seconds if something happens in my game, say you kill an enemy for example.
I'm new to concepts of AS 3 but i'm stumbling through it.So i'm looking to the Fourm for some Mentor ship
I have a simple Regular Flash slide show with 4 slides and an intro label. I need my Intro label to have a Timer or Delay event that holds on the "Intro" Label for a certain amount of time before the Timer expires and calls a function that tells FLASH to go on to slide "Slide 1" label.
The trick is i need this delay to run everytime the Timeline is at the "Intro" label as i have an animation playing while the timer or delay event counts down and finally at end goes to label "Slide 1" Can anyone share some simple code snipets that would point me in the right direction to accomplish this using AS3 ?
I am using the Timer class to time events. Although, I am not sure I have it set up correctly as after a few seconds the events start to get synchronized. first two, then three, etc. Here is an example of the code:

Does anyone know what could be possibly interfering with the Timer for this to happen? It mainly starts happening after you click on an mc and it is removed from the stage (this is for a game).
I have to make a timer that starts off set at one minute and plays an animation mapped to the time remaining in the timer. I need it to start and stop on a button press, and once it has gone through the minute, I need to be able to add time to it and start it again (with the animation mapped to the new amount of time) by clicking and dragging (or maybe with a slider). I have the basic functions down, but I can't figure out how to get it to start over with the time added by dragging. Here is my code so far:

I'm trying to build a simple timer application in as3 that counts down and then plays a gongsound. easy right?There are 3 buttons that should change the time from 2,3 and 4 minutes. Default time is 3 mins but the buttons never change the time and I can't figure out why, the trace tells me the boolean values have changed but the time is always the same..To save time I changed the times to 3,5 and 7 secs. here is the code :
ActionScript Code:
//time selection buttons
var time;

I used the Cowntdown timer from this page [URL]I wanted to know how can I adjust the time. For example, I want to change the ending time to 8.00 am, what do I need to change in the code for it to "explode" at 8.00am?
View 1 RepliesMaybe I'm blind (or just dumb) but I've been searching through the API trying to find out how to get the time elapsed for a Timer object. I want to, at any given time, find out EXACTLY how much time(in milliseconds) has passed since a Timer Object has been started.
View 3 Repliesi have two scenes, one acts as a preloader and is called "preloader" and the other scene, which is called ("Scene1") contains all the rest of my stuff.on the preloader scene i have inserted the following code:

function loading(e:Event):void[code]....
But i am getting the following errors.'access of undefined property Scene1'When i put the Scene1 in quotations i get 'cannot find scene1 label on the timeline'
I have looked at the Timer Class documentation and there does not seem the Timer Class provides a method or variable that returns the remaining time. I was wondering if there is a way to determine how much time is remaining after a timer has been started?
