With out getting into a ton of background I am wondering if there is a command that will reset all the variables in a swf at once with out having to do them individually?
I've googled and searched my books and can't find anything. Another option I could see is having the current flash reload, that would set everything back to the start but I couldn't find how to do that either.
Anyone know?
How do you reset all variables? I want to reset everything in my flash game as if it just loaded.
I have classes with vars.
I have movieclips with onLoad() vars.
I have multiple layers with vars.
I am very new to Flash AS3 and Flash Professional CS5. What I am try to do is show frames 4 to 10 (it just say CORRECT in bold) when a user selects the correct answer.On Frame 10 I have the code say "gotoAndPlay(2);", the problem is on Frame 2 I have action-script on that page and all my variables are re-declared and they all get reset as Frame 2 is loaded.How should I prevent the variables from being reset each time frame 2 is reloaded?
View 5 RepliesI am working with AS3 to build a very simple mp3 player on my site. So far the play and pause button work fine, but when I try to move the slider then click the pause button, it doesn't pause, and then clicking the play button again causes it to play a new file.I'm assuming that for some reason when I call the playMp3 function from my MouseEvent, it's within an object or something and not at the root, so it's like loading a new sound file, but I don't know how to fix that.URL...
View 2 RepliesIn my flash program I have everything on one frame. In the actionscript on that frame, I made a variable called currentButton and set it to the first button, to keep track of which button is currently pressed. In the click function this variable is changed to whatever button was clicked.Now, I didn't think this would work, because seeing that the one frame is being played over and over, (there's no stop() command in there) I thought currentButton would keep being reset every frame. To my surprise, it worked just fine. Not that I'm complaining, but I'd like to know why it's doing that. Shouldn't all the code on the frame be done every time the frame is played, including the part that sets currentButton to button1?

This may have been asked alot. but all the things i found on google led me nowhere except confusion. the code i have so far is attached, but i can't seem to get the message outputted properly. Also, the x.text needs to be replaced with the textfield, but i'd like if that could be a var too, so i can use different textfields. All my textfields are in the timeline "messageBar" on layer "Text", this timeline lies on(under?) the main timeline. if you need more information, feel free to ask.

Couldn't find this anywhere online. What kind of reset function can I use to return to the last played caption node of a tt styled xml file. The xml file is loaded by a FLVPLayback Captioning component on the stage? I believe I need to use the track function?? And how do I set the track parameter in a tt styled xml file? Am I using the wrong XML file style (tt vs. DOM)?
View 3 RepliesJust new in forum and just new in as3 programming. All i want to do is to make some physics simulations (i'm physics teacher...). So i made my first sim with the following code, just to simulate a simple motion with constant velocity. It works ok, except the part i need to reset the display by the means to start the motion all over again (reset button). Then the motion starts but the traces of the previous motion remains on stage. I tried the null command (sp=null) but the sim could not start again because the sp nedded to be non-null...

I have an issue with adding a reset button to my drag and drop movie clips.The problem is, if a student drags a movie clip to a wrong location on the SWF file I want them to be able to hit a reset button that would take them the same SWF that they opened and what would showup would a clear page for them to restart their drag and drop exercise.I know how to make the button for this just want the proper action script to be able for user to start over with no movie clip symbols on the page.
View 3 RepliesIn the moveThings function, the if part is only ment to play if the cursor is over the circle (ball_mc), which follows a bit after the cursor. However, something is wrong that makes it play this part (the first if statement in the moveThings), while it's meant to play the else part in that function unless the cursor is over the circle in which case the if is true.So what is wrong? I'm assuming that it's something with
Code:
if(-20 <= (stage.mouseX - ball_mc.x) <= 20 && -20 <= (stage.mouseY - ball_mc.y) <= 20)
that makes the computer play that statement even though the cursor isn't over the circle.

At the moment I have got one ship firing and the other 2 wont fire at all.

here's the problem...the whole site is in flash, and the text is scrollable...no big deal right...BUT he wants links throughout the text in various places. I was thinking of importing the text as a .as file, but how can I get the links to function properly? esp. since one of the links he has somewhere in the text is an "add to mailing list" link that I have set up to open in a separate borderless window...Can I script that all in the .as file, still import it as text, and have the links function as they should?
and will it be too complex for someone (who is lucky he can get his E-Mail without putting his foot in something) to update himself? Another difficulty... to do all this with a .as file I'm going to have to use a .css because he's a little font happy. the problem is the fonts are Not standard by any means. How do I load a font that a user dosn't have to the server so it can be referenced by a .css, and displayed via .as in a flash file?
i have that header for my navigation here: [url] However I cannot get the getURL command to function properly. You can test it out by clicking on a key meta word (right hand side) than clicking on "home" to take you back.As you will see it does not work.The site is built around Joomla—it's pretty basic and I didn't care for any of the navigational options so I built a flash menu.
edit I can get this to work when I "cmd-return" out of flash and test the .swf - but online it's a no go.
I have set up a system that spawns barriers for the player to dodge but it appears the functions won't trigger properly from within "if" statements.

View 3 RepliesI have a blank container mc into which I am loading JPGs after you click on a button. There are 10 buttons in the movie, each associated with a different JPG.This container_mc is part of a function called on the main Timeline.The Flash movie is 1 frame on the main Timeline. This code works correctly on the first JPG when I click on a button for the first time), but then when you click on a different button I believe it just uses the dimensions and coordinates of the first JPG. How can I reset or refresh (unload, reload) this function so it works correctly every time I load a new JPG?

So Every time when I click left mouse button, the setClickedTrue function should be triggered. And that's what happen normally.

I need to be able to use a function to change a variable outside of it, and it seems like global scope and the like went out with 2.0 and I need to use 3.0.I would just have the function return a value, but I'm using an 'addEventListener' which has the event and then the function inside.
Example:
Code:
var finished = false;
myLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, done);
function done(evt:Event) {

How can variables be changed through a function when you can't set the scope or return a value through it?
