Actionscript :: Random Horizontal Movement Dropping Objects?
Mar 26, 2012
I'm making a game similar to Kaboom for my actionscript class
[URL]
I realize I'm not even close to done and its probably shitty but this is my code so far:
var bucket:Bucket=new Bucket
var sun:Sun=new Sun
var fireBalls:Array=new Array()
[Code].....
I know I want to use a timer event or something to get the sun to switch directions randomly but I can't quite figure it out
this is an idea of what the swf looks like (its not loading everything in this simulation, the bucket is on the stage and moves left and right onKeyDown in reality):

I have a code here that drops a first row then drops a second row down right after. First row drops right away and second row is on a timer.
// Bring in first row
var blueY:Tween = new Tween(blue, "y", Bounce.easeOut, -295, -49, 2, true);
var pinkertonY:Tween = new Tween(pinkerton, "y", Bounce.easeOut, -295, -49, 2, true);
[Code]....
How would I drop each cover individually at random between two set numbers? I assume I would have to apply a separate timer for each one then somehow make the time at which it drops random between two numbers?

In your tutorial you used the following code to create horizontal movement:[AS]onClipEvent(enterFrame) { speed = 10; this._x += speed; }[/AS]
how would you create a continuous loop of this movement(ie. make the movie move horizontally across the screen over and over).

Trying to use an enterFrame event in conjunction with two functions that combined I want to move my object (a square) from the right to the left side of the screen and rotate it AROUND THE CENTER.When I use the following functions individually, they both work fine:
Actionscript Code:
//Centering function function rotCenter (ob:*, angleDegrees:Number, ptRotationPoint:Point) { var m:Matrix=ob.transform.matrix; m.tx -=

I am just learning actionscript, and your site has been able to clarify a number of things for me. With that said my question is this: In your tutorial you used the following code to create horizontal movement: AS]onClipEvent(enterFrame) { speed = 10; this._x += speed; }[/AS] how would you create a continuous loop of this movement (ie. make the movie move horizontally across the screen over and over).

So I got this from the tut on this site and it's works great.I can't figure out though how to make the speed random as well as the movent. I want all my little clips to move at random speeds in adition to direction.

basically I want my engine to display one out of three objects at random. I thought I had figured it out but apparently not. A familiar error message appears, "A term is undefined and has no properties". I'm sure it refers to the object I'm trying to spawn, however it rejects every object I refer to. Is my approach reasonable or should I scarp what I've got?
Code:
var spawnObject:Array = new Array("Object1", "Object2", "Object3");
var randomNumber:Number = Math.round(Math.random() * (spawnObject.length - 1));
if(spawnObject[randomNumber] == "Object1")

I have been working on a horizontal AS3 draggable menu for some time now and i am almost there with it. I am basically trying to replicate the menu at [url]...
So far i have got everything to work apart from the easing movement when the menu is dragged. The menu is quite simple, it is made up of a container mc.Inside this container there are 6 buttons which fill the dimensions of the container.The container itself is bigger than the stage and the user must click and drag the menu horizontally to see the rest of the menu.This is working. However, i am still after an easing effect when the menu is being dragged as it stops dead (because it is using the startDrag and stopDrag commands).how to implement an easing effect on the dragging of this menu i would be so grateful as i cannot manage to do it! (perhaps using tweenlite or tweenmax if its easier, or by using simple physics - I have attached a zip file that contains a compiled SWF and a CS4 FLA file.This is the AS3 i have so far:
Code:
stop();
import com.greensock.*;
import com.greensock.easing.*;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;[code].........

i've applied the following script to a movieclip to change its 'y' coordinate randomly at run time and it works fine but i'm also trying to control the maximum 'top' and maximum bottom 'y' movement for which the value should be: top = 40 and bottom = 400. so it only displays randomly between 40 to 400 'y' coordinate. could you tell me how can i implement this in the following script?
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
_x -= 4;
if (_x<=-2247) {

I've been trying to simply get random movement on a MC on my stage.
Most of the tutorials I come across deliver jittery motion, not smooth eased motion.
Also, I'm trying this script found here: [URL]
The random motion looks great! .... but I can't stop the MC from moving to the top left of my stage. The script isn't setup to restrict the motion within a given area on the stage. I tried modifying it, got nowhere!

I wanted to built an enemy that is able to move on stage randomly in xposition and perhaps able to detect my character within the detectable zone and chase after me.. but currently I just wanted to make the enemy move randomly in x-position for starter.
It is my first time making and enemy with AI, but I'm just wasn't sure where to begin, I have used a fairy easy script to animated the movieclip in the beginning but got stucks whenever it reaches 960 or below 0 of the stage
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,initGames);
function initGames(e:Event):void{
moveEnemy();
}

I have an IK chain of 3 dots. I would like to put random movement on one of the dots 'pt1' so that is randomly bounces around my screen while the other 2 dots follow - something like a snake. However when I put this code on 'pt1' which is a movie clip by the way it simply will not work.
ActionScript Code:
onClipEvent(load){
xDir=1;
yDir=1;[code].........

I am looking at the Kirupa code for random movement (Random movement in Flash MX), and I am trying to figure out if I can limit the movement to the shape of an oval.
I want to do an overhead shot of a bunch of little people swiming in an oval swimming pool.

I'm trying to achieve random motion of my movie clips limited from stage left to stage right. I've read the following tutorials:
[URL]
both are helpful. However, I don't want mouse position to affect anything (as it does in the 'continuous movement' tutorial). The 'random motion' code is pretty close...if I just knew what part of the code to modify to limit motion from left to right.

i want to make a movement. An object has to come from behind an object and go back again.The interval between each time the object appears has to be random.i was trting to maken something with the setTimer() function, and a random. The random gives a var.This var i would use as time for the object appears in combination with the setTimer().i can't come up with a decent code that would work.Where do i need to define the start vars, adn where do i define the random script.

My knowledge of actionscript is basic, at best. I'm trying to make some animations move randomly by following a very helpful tutorial posted on this site [URL].. And everything was going so well until I tried to use my own initiative to limit the width and height of the movement. This is when I realised that I haven't got a clue what I am doing!

I'm trying to move a series of dots (mc used as linkage: "Dot") within a frame to random targets, with the movement activated by onRollOver. This part I have working fine. The part I'm having difficulty with is getting the objects to have target coordinates to move randomly, except rounded to the nearest 12 pixels. Here's the relevant code:
Code:
minx = 120;
maxx = 450;
miny = 20;

If you look at this site and enter site. You will see 2 litle things moving on you screen.I need somthing like this aswell only then for like 50 bugs. I found lots of ways to make this with rondom movement scripts but i also need it to turn. So when its going to the bottom its pointing to the bottom and when its going up its turns pointing up.

I'd like a movie clip to randomly move along the x axis whenever the mouse is clicked by using actionscript 3.0.
The movie clip is a city skyline I have in the background.
I can get it to sort of move when a mouse is clicked with this code
var skylineTween:Tween=new Tween(skyline_mc,"x", Regular.easeInOut, Math.random(),85,3,true);

Hi. Pls let me first say that I'm new here, although i have worked with Flash (pre v5), from a design background, i struggle with actionscripting. but i am learning...
Re: Random Movement in Flash MX
I am currently reading through the actionscript dictionary, trying to make head or tail of this script. Basically, I'm hoping to modify this script to work contained within a movieclip (as opposed to directly at _root / level_0).

I have the following clipEvent on a movieclip called square:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
xmove = (xpos-this._x)/5;
this._x += xmove;
}
And the following framecode in the same keyframe as square:
_root.square.xpos = Math.round(Math.random()*550);
Now I want to use this information in a function so I can control more than just one clip.
