It lets you move a Cube, with the arrow keys on the keyboard. This is the code.
Code:
function hearKey(yourEvent:KeyboardEvent):void{
if (yourEvent.keyCode==Keyboard.RIGHT){
cube_mc.x+=5
[Code]....
I keep pressing the down key down and also press the left key down...
now it moves left...(not so good, i want it to move both left and down, how do i do that?)
now i release the left key but am still on the down key....
recording movements while dragging an object and when the object is dropped the record event will stop and the recorded movement will be animated by Play button.
View 1 RepliesIn ActionScript 3, I need to detect a sequence of movements made by the mouse when the button is down.I've read this question, and it seems a bit overkill. I only need to detect the 8 basic directions (up/down/left/right/diagonals), so that I can detect a "Z".
View 2 RepliesIs it possible to copy the mouse movements, but rather than making a movieclip follow it exactly, to make up with the mouse move the movieclip up and left at a certain angle?
View 17 RepliesI am trying to do an example of collision in Action Script 3. It's a character that should stop when it hits a platform. It works well when I move only to the right, left, up or down directions, but if I try to move in the diagonals, if the characteris colliding with the platform, the object goes to a different area of the screen.
var level:Array = new Array();
for (var i = 0; i < numChildren; i++) {
if (getChildAt(i) is Platform) {
level.push(getChildAt(i).getBounds(this));
[code]....
I was wondering if there was a way to make movements confined to a certain order. I saw a DNA effect, and it was quite awesome.
View 5 RepliesI am working on an interactive guide with some sort of different maps that are supposed to move together depending on where you are if that makes any sense...well no it doesn't. ok the main clip pans side ways on mouse move using a tutorial from this website. And when this clip slides along x up to a certain point, I need to get two other clips to also slide to a precise point depending on the first one position, one only along x and the other one on both x and y. OF course i also have to set several key position on the mainclip to mave the two clip at a different place each time the main clip reaches a different point. For now I have been trying things using mc_tween2 like that:

i've got a little actionscript that makes a shape follow my mouse about the screen. it works fine when i place it in a layer. however, when the code is in a mc and i place the mc in my layer, then i get no joy.i expect i need a line like tellTarget when using buttons within a mc to target places outside the mc?
View 4 RepliesI have a credits button for a game. I want it when clicked to bring together two movie clips called top and bottom, then go to a frame labeled 2. I tried this code but it just freezes:

while(top.y < 113) {

i already made a working tooltip.now i want the tooltip to be dragged by the mousepointer movements....but the tooltip should always keep the same y-axis position....something like maybe:
Code:
startDrag("_root.tooltip", true);
y_mouse = 20;
So I'm designing a game for my flash class final, and I want to have my character spin based on mouse movements. So if I move the mouse to the left, character spins counterclockwise, to the right, clockwise. But I also need to have things spin with the character, like the gun he's holding. And if the gun shoots projectiles, how would I keep the direction of the projectiles constant with the character's direction? Also, I'm using wasd for walking, then the mouse for directional control, so how do I make it so W doesn't make the character go down in Y value, but it makes the character travel at a velocity in whatever direction it's facing (so if the character is facing like northeast, pressing W will make him walk northeast. Then pressing A facing the same direction would make him strafe northwest)?
View 1 RepliesI am working on a game in which I want a movie clip to move from one random location to another, with a pause in between each movement. I have written some code with thtutorials, but I can't get it to work the way I want it to. I am extremely new to ActionScript, so I'm probably doing everything wrong. Right now all my game does is pause for a certain amount of time, and then the object just jumps from one location to another extremely quickly and doesn't stop.

I am currently working on a interactive map that I am building in flash. I need to figure out if there is a way to code something so that we can have our map zoomed in, so it is only showing a section of the map in the veiwport at a time, but when the mouse reaches the edge of the screen I want it to automatically scroll with it, up, down, over, etc.
View 1 Replieshow can i give random movements for a movieclip on the stage.When i am trying this movieclip stopped after 3 or 4 movements.How can i do this
View 5 RepliesI have two different movieclips on my stage, one with a number of buttons and one with a moving object that I want to control with my buttons. The reason for having the buttons in their own movieclip is that I want to be able to move them as well. Let's say I have an object in "myMovieClip" that moves between three different positions when I press three different buttons, the buttons might say "up", "left" and "right".
[Code]....
How do I get my movements to start where it last stoped? If my object starts out at the "Up"-position and I press "Left", I want it to move from Up to Left and if I then press "Right" I want it to move from Left to Right. If my object is at Left and I press Left I want it to stay where it is.

View 0 RepliesDoes anybody know an easy way to duplicate a display object (placed with addChild() to stage, containing a square which moves and scales and rotates randomly around), and make the duplicate mirror vertically 'everything'. As if it's a water reflection?
I'm only simplifying my case, in reality the display object has complex and multiple moving objects with filters.
Is there a quick way to draw an arrow in Flash? I have seen postings from 2006 which say there isn't, but I wondered if there is a way in CS4?
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to program an arrow flying in the air, but the speed doesn't look well. But now the arrow moves very slow, here's a sample. (I know the arrow and the trajectory doesn't match 100%, it's just a sample.)

And now it looks good, but can someone tell me why I need to do this while in physics it normally would fly 15 times too fast?
I just made a new Flash project. It lets you move a Cube, with the arrow keys on the keyboard.
Code:
function hearKey(yourEvent:KeyboardEvent):void{
if (yourEvent.keyCode==Keyboard.RIGHT){
cube_mc.x+=5 };
if (yourEvent.keyCode==Keyboard.LEFT){
[Code] .....
It works perfectly fine, except for example: I press down the down key. It moves down (good so far). I keep pressing the down key down and also press the left key down. Now it moves left(not so good, I want it to move both left and down, how do I do that?) Now I release the left key but am still on the down key. Nothing happens....(I want it to then continue going down).
I've a flash games site, and Im having a lot of difficulties to make it show in internet explorer 8.When you are playing any flash, the arrow keys that should belong to the flash scroll the page up and down (probably left and right too). This was happening in both ie7 and ie8.I placed the flash inside an iframe, that fixed to IE7, but the problem persists on IE8.If I change the flash wmode from transparent to window, the page stops scrolling, but this breaks all my menus and banners, that get hidden behind the flash when they expand.How can I place a flash, with wmode transparent, and make arrow keys work in the expeted way in IE8?
View 3 RepliesI've got an actionscript project (code I inherited) in which the cursor remains an arrow at all times. Even when I set a Sprite's buttonMode, nothing changes.
mySprite.buttonMode = true;

mySprite.mouseChildren = false;
I've searched the project for terms like 'cursor' and the above 3, but I can't find anything.Is there some global setting somewhere that disallows cursor modification?

View 10 Repliesi just want to remove the down and up arrow from a scrollbar component in flash cs3.
I've tried to remove the movieclips but than the flash would throw errors(which is obvious), than i tried to delete the graphics inside the arrows but with no luck.
Edit: I forgot to mention that i want the actual scrollbar area to expand if i remove the arrows.
The following code (with a textField on the stage named "textTest") will trace and display on the stage the Key Code of the key pressed. When done within the IDE, and any other browser, it works fine. However, when tested in Firefox 4 (for Mac), everything works except the arrow keys.
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.KeyboardEvent;
public class test extends MovieClip {
