I have this quickBox2d code to add a cricle to the stage:
var ball:QuickObject = sim.addCircle( {skin:skinMc, x:10, y:10, radius:3, density:0 } );
The skinMc contains animations so I want to be able to refer to it like this: skinMc.gotoAndPlay(5); but it says
Type Coercion failed: cannot convert skinMc$ to flash.display.MovieClip.
ball.gotoAndPlay(5); doesn't work either since it's a QuickObject, not an mc...
I'm wondering if I can lower the transparency of any skin in QuickBox2D, I have searched the documentation but I can't find it. Transparency value or filters(Multiply/Overlay). Example: If I create a movieclip, and make it overlayed and then call it through a QuickBox2D, it will become invisible. I want to blend skins with the stage background image. [URL]
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to construct an animation illustrating the angle of a circle.The user types in a value and the handle gets rotated on a timer tick. (Press Enter or the ndra-button to see the effect): Example So far so good.Now - my problem is when the rotation gets bigger than 360 degrees. I would like the arc's alpha to get darker, to see it draw upon the "existing" arc line. But I don't know how to do that and I can't find code for doing it, either.[code]The DrawingShapes.drawArc method comes from here.If anyone could point me in the right directon on how graphic updating works. I tried not removing the lineHolder from stage when it's updated, but that just made the line's alpha 1 instantly. I would like it to "gradually" get filled in when the arc exceeds 360 degrees.
View 1 RepliesI feel like I am not 'getting' something very simple here:I have a bit of AS3 which uses a loop to draw X number of circles which are placed as data points on a 2-dimensional line graph:
Code:
var circleSize:uint = 10;
var line:Shape = new Shape();
[code]........
A number of circles (a.b,c etc.) drawn on the circumference of a circle X.
When + button is clicked, a new circle is added on the circumference which makes thar circle X expand. When a circle 'a' is drag and dropped to a garbage image, circle 'a' gets deleted making the circle X shrink in size.
The name of my DocumentClass is Main. So, what's the difference between :
var myClass:Main = new Main();
var mcInLibrary:MovieClip ;
/////////////////////////////////////////[code]............
I have one png image (lossless) turned into movieClip, when I call it on the scene, it becomes extremely pixelated, other images on stage have the same treatment and don't show pixelization.

I want the final result to be a stage with a certain number of circle MC's moving around. I have made the circle MC, and added the AS so that it will start at a random point with a random color, then start moving around randomly. I want to make it so that In the beginning the document will duplicate the movie clip x amount of times, using a for loop. I want to then have all the new circles move around, and when two circles hit each other, they will dissappear, using the removeclip function. You can only use this on duplicated movieclips though, so how would i make all the circles duplicated? Is there a way to duplicate the original movieclip x amount of times then delete it? Or is there a way to remove the original after it is in a collision? Also I don't know how to do the collision detection. I am thinking of using a hittest, but would I just do it with a for loop? Is there a way so that if an MC hits any other MC?

In the library of the main swf file a movie called navigation has been exported to class: 'NavMC'[code]...
I am trying to add multiple different versions of the same button to the stage and to be able to access them later on by assigning them an ID. The way I assumed this would be done is to have a class for the button where an internal static variable is defined so that the ID can be found in the next function. This does not seem to be working, as the ID is constantly showing as the last number given, so in this case 6.I assume that I am doing this wrong? Here is my code so you can better understand:
package src {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.*;
[code]......
I have a couple swfs that are loaded in using Loader, my first problem is I want to stop the timeline until another function when I want it to start. so In the complete function I have
var swfMC:MovieClip = e.target.content as MovieClip ;
swfMC.stop();
but the swf still runs through.Another problem I am having is whenever I add it to the stage it seems to make a duplicate of the swf, and when I remove this duplicate it remains til flash finally crashes. There isnt anything but simple tweens in my swf's (and added trace statements), so they shouldnt be held into memory. that and they shouldn't have been duplicated in the first place... right?
Code:
function AddYCoins():void
{
for (var i:int = 0; i < 10; i++)
{
var Ycoin:YCoin = new YCoin();
[Code]...
This function creates 10 instances of my YCoin and places it around the stage. But i wish the coins to only fall in specific areas, (i.e. i have 8 green rectangles, names area1,area2 etc) because the idea is you have to collect the coins but only staying on the green rectangles.
i knows its the stage.stageWidth i need to change but i cant think what to change it too!
here is a very simple code
for ( var i = 0 ; i < 10000 ; i++)
{
var mc:MovieClip = new MovieClip()
addChild(mc)
}
What is the memory accumulated by this code ? Any flash util's keyword i may use ?
I'm developing a game atm, and I need some help on the mathematics/coding of colliding circles (and their change in x/y speed). What i need to know is how to calculate the direction and speed a circle has after colliding with a static (non-moving) circle. I know how to detect a collision between the two, but I'm not sure about the maths I need to give the circle the right speed and direction after the collision
If i do know how far away the two circle-points (in the middle of each) are to each other (in both x and y coords) would it be easy for me to find the new speed and direction of the large circle in the example above? I know that I somehow should use the angles to pretend the circle hits a flat "wall" (as it only hits one point), and then calculate the new speed/direction. My only problem is that I'm not sure how to decide the angle of this flat "wall" and how x and y speeds should change when colliding with a wall that is angled. Does anyone here have any insight, links or tips on how I can du this?
i want to make one circle follow the mouse cursor, inside another circle. Similar to an eye looking at the cursor. Ive attached an example.

View 0 RepliesTrying to do circle circle collisions via math which I'm really having trouble with. One circle (player) just moves from keyboard. The ball reacts to the player. All the code shown is in my players class and I passed in a reference to the ball.
On my enterframe I have:
Code:
var xmov1 = xSpeed;
var ymov1 = ySpeed;
var xmov2 = ballRef.xSpeed;
var ymov2 = ballRef.ySpeed;
[code]....
Perhaps I'll go with a box2d equivalent instead of trying out my own physics shenanigans.
Here I what i need is : Start drawing first circle and when first circle is on half way, Start second circle.same way second and third circles. and after completing 3 circles, just gotoAndPlay 2nd Frame .
View 3 RepliesI have a simple three ring animation where the three rings fade in and out.On the stage the rings are a perfect circle, in the publish preview they look fine, but once I publish the SWF, all of the sudden the rings are not perfectly round anymore.
They are almost perfect but right at the top and bottom there is just a small portion which has sort of "flattened out"...
I bought a Flash video tutorial online for Animating and the FIRST step is to create a circle with the circle tool, and the guy does it online, and it fills itself in. I repeat his actions exactly and I cannot get the same result at all. I just get a circle.
View 5 RepliesI have two MC's, circular in shape. One of the circles is stationary and you can drag the other. I'm trying to get the moveable circle to be able to move around the circumference of the stationary circle, but not overlap. I'm able to detect when they overlap, not using hittest. I just can't figure out how to code it so that the draggable circle can't be moved over the stationary circle.
