IDE :: Craps Game - Get A Lot Of Time Constant Errors And Unexpected Else Statements?
Jan 16, 2010
i'm trying to make a craps game in flash.The program starts with a login screen which takes you to a menu, then you get the choice of 3 games. I'm on my second game so far which i'm having trouble with.So far i've managed to get 2 spinners with numbers 1-6 on each, which will spin, give you the values in 2 separate text boxes then add the value together in another text box.The trouble i am having is the winning and lossing condions, where i have no idea where to start.
Rulse are if your value equals 7 or 11 you win
if your value equals 2,3 or 12, yoo lose and
if your value is anothing else then user gets another go and has to get the same value again or get a 7 and lose.
Heres code so far:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;[code]....
i need to create another function or create if statements within existing functions.I tried creating another function afte the bottom function but got a lot of time constant errors and unexpected else statements whihc i didn't understand.

I use CS4.
Code:
package {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;[code]...........
Both of these are saved in files with the name same as the classes.
Both are saved a folder which also contains an fla file name hello.fla.So,when test the movie(hello.fla),after choosing the document class as WavyBall,I get these errors: 1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Ball.
Source: var Ball:Ball;
1120: Access of undefined property stage.
Source:Ball.x=stage.stageWidth/2;
1120: Access of undefined property stage.
Source:Ball.y=stage.stageHeight/2;
5000: The class 'WavyBall' must subclass 'flash.display.MovieClip' since it is linked to a library symbol of that type.What is wrong?

I have .fla called Helicopter and a movieclip in the library with a linkage of Fly. If I use the code-snippet(as a seperate class called Helicopter.as)below with Flash or Flashdeveloper it works fine. If i use FlexBuilder (Actionscript project)I get these errors. is there some settings I have to change in FlexBuilder?

Now getting this error: Symbol 'levelcomplete'1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: nextlevelBtn. Hi guys, Beginner here having some trouble creating my first flash drag and drop jigsaw puzzle game. The drag and drop jigsaw puzzle works to some extent, but it is the "level complete" movieclip which is causing problems. On testing the movie i get this error:1061: Call to a possibly undefined method addEventListener through a reference with static type Class.

The examples I'll use don't do anything - they're classes without ANY members - no variables, methods, anything.
Let's say I extends Sprite and call it MySprite.
I save it in test.core
[code]...
Now I create another custom class called MyWindow that extends MySprite.
I save it in test.windows
[code]...
Then I create another class that extends MyWindows (the example I'll use is a document class - but that doesn't matter - I've tested using an instance too).
[code]...
Notice that I'm not even trying to instantiate the helper classes - just having them there throws the error.
If there is only a single helper class, everything runs fine.
Also note that - as far as I can tell - this only happens when extending one class from another package, then extending that class with more than one helper object.I'm pretty sure there's no namespace bumps or typographical errors, as this is a very pared-down version of the original application.
EDIT: seems the problem exists even without the crossing packages - even extending MySprite in the document class with multiple internal classes generates this error.

Is there a way to set the value of a private static const identifier from a config file during compile time in Actionscript 3?Also, it would be nice if I can do this in the mxmlc ANT task.

I want to pulish SWF file from .fla file. I have some scripts there, but when I pulished them - they don't work. I get error from compiler:
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant
**Warning** The linkage identifier 'scrollableContent' was already assigned to the symbol 'pop_ups/__pop_up_other_elements/scrollableContent', and cannot be assigned to the symbol 'pop_ups/__pop_up_other_elements/scrollable_game_content', since linkage identifiers must be unique.

I've got this movieclip that I made into a button with ActionScript. When clicked, it should go to a frame in my main timeline labeled "beansbus", but whenever I try to test the movie out, Flash gives me this error:
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: bus.
I've looked around on the internet and I've been told that this error can crop up if the instance name is the same as a library object. That WAS the problem, but I renamed the library object to Cutebus, so that should have fixed it, I hope. There was another fix that involved something called TextFields in my movieclip, but I don't have those...

Is there a way to get this code to work? It's meant to count the seconds passed while playing the game and gives a bonus multiplier to the current score when the game ends. I don't know how to get the returned value to combine it into the multiplier int variable. Is there any way to get this code to work or is it completely wrong?

I am almost done my short AS3 "Flight of the Conchords" game I just want to attempt to do one last thing...to successfully restart the game without getting a bunch of null object errors. The way it restarts now is that if you die or win the game then a screen pops up and a button takes you to the previous scene (menu), the problem is that once it goes to the previous scene all these null object errors occur.
P.S. This is my second time working with AS3, and I was able to do this following a YouTube tutorial by Borris123psn.

First I create a new ActionScript Project, then add a Library Project's bin folder to the build path, and reference the Library Project. I code the new project, and everything works fine. But later, when I'm optimizing the code, I'll create a new ActionScript class file in the Library Project, save it, and then change an already defined function within the ActionScript Project to use this new ActionScript class in the Library Project instead of some other class in the Library Project. The class file is in the Library Project's src folder, under (default package), same as all the other files the ActionScript Project is using successfully.At this point, FlashBuilder shows an error "Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: PEArrays."
Here is the Library Project file:
package
{
public class PEArrays
{
[code]...
I have included import PEArrays; or, import PEArrays.*; and both result in the same error.Also, I tried exiting and re-entering FlashBuilder, didn't help. Cleaning the ActionScript Project had no effect on this error. I also right-clicked on the project folder and selected Refresh, but it didn't help.
I verified that the needed classes are correctly selected by going to Project>Properties>Flex Library Build Path and reviewing the Classes tab. I'm just a single developer so there's no version control system in place.
After troubleshooting a bit, I now find that the ActionScript Project folder's bin directory is empty. When I run the .as file in the ActionScript Project's src folder, I get an error that the ASname.html file cannot be found (where ASname is the ActionScript Project name and also the .as file name, e.g. ASname.as, in the src folder, which is run). This ASname.html file is not found in the html-template folder. What process generates this needed .html file?

I have a symbol with name and class name "cat". I also have buttons with names and classnames of values "upButton" "downButton". I dragged the symbols onto the stage and gave them instance names of "cat", "upButton", and "downButton", and tried to control the position of the cat using the buttons, however I got the error message:
"type was not found or was not a compile-time constant"
So I tried changing the name of the instances to cat2, upButton2, and downButton2, and it works perfectly fine. So am I not allowed to have instance names identical to the class name? This is strange because in the book I am working out of, the instance names are identical to the class names.
