I'm trying to create a random sequence memory game, where user has to watch over a certain sequence appears on the screen before they can input (by pushing buttons) according to the sequence appear before.I've found simon sayz code and make a modification on it.It worked flawlessly, but there is one problem with it.The code creates the sequence in this manner, e.g:
1
1 1 2
1 1 2 3
1 1 2 3 4
1 1 2 3 4 5
etc,..
while the game I'm intended to develop doesn't need that kind of increment logic, they just need to display 5 different element for starter and then the user should follow the sequence displayed on it.
I made a memory game with a tutorial. My knowledge of AS3 is not that good so I have to following question.There is a function like Math.Random to random generate number and put them on stage. I made a memory game and the cards are on the same place every time I play the "movie".I want them to shuffle every time I restart the game. How can I write a good random function in AS3?
currently i making this game and objects would spawn at random and be able to click but when de game starts itself, the spawn is correct but i am unable to make it stop when time goes to 0seconds.
I have a string value that is always 8 digits long. I need to shuffle the letters in a random sequence, for example the word actionscript must become something like ptcsacointr. The sequence of shuffling can be anything. Anyone have an idea how i can do this? Oh yes, the shuffle cannot be random. it must be a set sequence that is always used...
the variable Im interested in is numSound which at the moment is a random number between 1 and 5, but it repeats too much and a sequence would be fine. I know very little actionscript and nothing I have tried works,the code, or what seems the relevant code, is
Code: private function randRange(min:Number, max:Number):Number {
I'm very new to flash,and have been digging through google and this site for information on how to piece together an AS2 shooter game.Its going well enough, but I'm having slowdown issues the longer the games runs, and I was hoping someone here could point me in the right direction.To paste an enemy movie clip on the screen, i'm using this:
Code: var spawn =_root.attachMovie("monster1","monster1"+_root.getNextHighestDepth(),_root.getNextHighestDepth())[code]........
I need them stored in an array so that the player's shots can test weather or not they've hit any monster on the bullet's enter frame function, then call that monster's movie clip's take damage function. I'm using a for loop to do this:
Code: for(var i in _root.player.foes){ if (this.hitTest(_root.player.foes[i])){ _root.player.foes[i].takedamage();} }
I think the problem with the slowdown is that each time I place an enemy on the screen the array gets bigger and bigger. The slowdown only happens while the player is shooting, and I suspect the ever longer for loop with the hit testing is causing it.
I'm already removing the monster's movie clips as they get killed or exit the screen, I guess what I need is a way to reduce the size of the array at the same time, or at least tell the for loop not to do a hit test unless the monster is still alive.
which I presume creates a random number between 1 and 5, to just a simple sequence of 1 to 5, or alternately, random would be ok if there was a way to preventing it from repeating numbers
I am trying to create a memory game, where about five or six (doesn't matter how much) different colours com up and flash for a second and disappear in a random order.
Then the user has to try to match them again buy clicking on the colours that they have infront of them in the same sequence as the lights went.
Is there a way to make this game so it will tell you when you are wrong or right, and also is it possible to make the flashing colours random each time you play it?
i am making a game with scrolling background. I am using a tiled background.inactionscript I was going to hide background objects off the screen but this cause memory to still be taken up by the hidden images so what do i do?the scrolling background isnt repeating so i could have 4-5 screens of image tiles off screen and made invisible until required.
This person created this game:http:[url]....i was wondering if i wanted to match two different colours, how could i do this? for example, instead of matching two reds, if i wanted to match a red and green, how is this done?
I may be tackling a huge subject here but I was wondering how to make it so that if someone uses one of my flash projects and they close it that it would remember where they left off. For example there are many Flash Games out there with levels, and instead of having to repeat each level over and over, the game remembers the level you left off at.
The prblem that i have is that when i click the 'Bone Memory' game it load up fine. I can play the game and the 'Play Again' button work as well.The problem occurs when i use the 'Main Menu' button. It goes to the main screen, which is fine, but the 'duplicate' cards that were created for the game appear on this main screen when they shouldn't. This in turn causes problems with playing the game when the 'Bone Memory' button is selected for the second time. The cards are all in the wrong places.I am attching the file with the code. The main screen and game were created seperatly and i have tried to combine the in the file attched.
This is my first attempt at a game in AS3.I'm currently experiencing a problem which I'm sure is a result of my poor understanding of programming concepts.My problem is this, every time I call the function to rebuild my level, the game progressively slows down.I've tried to clear everything, but somehow something is still causing the slow down. I'll attach a zip with all of the files, and also I will add the main code to this.The attempted clearing happens in a function called cleanup() and the level setting up in setupLevel().[code]
I would like to code an script that would with some trial and error method learn to play QWOP game, that is available at Flash format on Internet (more information on QWOP). I found out there are some challenges on it: The program is available on Flash and I don't know how any Script (I am planning to use JavaScript) could use virtually its UI, it means to send the appropriate key strokes to the game UI. I know Java Script is not the easiest language to master and especially there are challenges on such a complicated coding aim as Artificial Intelligence.
i have an evil memory leak that i would like to fix. at the end of the game a bunch of sprites "explode" and fly around. once they leave the stage, i stop their enterframe loop and remove them like so:
I am creating a whack a mole game in Flash CS5 AS 3.I have nine instances of the same movie clip that I am trying to make appear randomly as the "mole". So far I have the following script:
var girlarray:Array = new Array(); girlarray[0] = instanceofhole1; girlarray[1] = instanceofhole2;[code]............
I'm trying to develop a SWF Api that consists of a game that makes random objects fall from the top, each of them has different points, and then the points the player gets should be stored into a dinamic text called score, when the player doesn't take the ball, loses a life. Then, if the player catches it, the ball disappears and gives the points to the player.
I've been working on a deal or no deal game (my first game) and I'm stuck. I just need a script to make 22 variables that are randomly equal to numbers 1 - 22, so I get a result like this:
box01 = side09; box02 = side12; box03 = side19; ... ... box22 = side04; I should probably clarify that all 22 numbers need to be different.
how to display random game characters as an individual using the code below:
var bearOne = new bearMC();var bearTwo = new bearMC_2();var bearThree = new bearMC_3();var characters:Array = new Array(bearOne,bearTwo,bearThree); var mcChar:MovieClip=characters[int(Math.random()*3)]; addChild(mcChar);
Currently, I'm looking deeper.. Let's say if I'm displaying the characters in different parts say Head, Body and Arms, etc.. How do I make sure when I randomize the characters, the correct part of each character is displayed correctly? Instead of characterOne's head appear with characterTwo's Body and characterThree's Arms for example.
I am attempting to create a game that will simulate groceries coming down a conveyor belt. The player acts as a bagger and must click and drag the groceries into designated bags (one for cold food and one for non-cold food). When the correct choice is made the food will disappear and the score will increase +1.
I have become overwhelmed by thinking about how to do this and have not found helpful answers that actually work when I try to compile them so I decided to ask. how I can have random grocery items fall down the screen? I assumed I could create an array of movieclips and have them be called to fall down randomly, but I am not sure how this would work.
we just recently defended our graduation project which is a platform game like mario. one of the modifications suggested by our panelists is to make level 1 generate random places for enemies and coins after one of them said that mario was a stupid game because you already know where the enemies are, the powerups, etc. i said i'll give it a go and see what i can do. but recently i realized that i havent played any platform game that generates random places for the enemies, coins and other objects. it is only in rpg games like ragnarok that i have seen enemies spawning at random places.
I am currently making a game with Flash CS5 and AS3... namely Tetris I have created my main menu and the objects and so on and have a few questions
1) How do I quit the game should a player press the quit button?
2) How do I get a button (Z and X) to rotate an object whilst the object is moving downwards (it is moving downwards using the timer function)?
3) How do I get the object to stop once it reaches the bottom of the screen? (im thinking something along the line of the hit detect but havent had much luck)
4) Any ideas on how to get flash to detect if a line is complete and therefore delete it? (it needs to segment blocks off the graphic)
5) My final and most important question (the bit im working on at the minute) how do i get flash to call random functions so that random tetrominoes appear on screen so that the game is different everytime and the blocks are random as the player plays)
I am trying to make a game where you have random objects falling vertically and must land in a bucket. The bucket is controlled by the mouse(it follows the mouse).
I am looking for a way to remove a movieclip from the stage when it is dropped (after a pause) and then have a new random movieclip appear at a specific point on the stage, which can then be dragged and dropped onto its own target (which repeats the process).
Code: var movieArray:Array = new Array(); movieArray = ["Red", "Green" , "Blue"];[code].....
I have a bit trouble with LoaderMax memory occupy, i have a queue, and i am keep loading images depend on user's action. if they click load more and it keep load, but i would like to clean the memory which been occupied by the previous queue (i have remove all the children been added by the loading previously). is there a way i can do it? the behavior like this.
I have an FPS monitor running and notice that I am getting choppiness here and there, bringing my game from 40 to 27 fps and back and forth at certain stages. I have an idea of where it is happening, but do not know for sure. I looked up quite a few memory monitors but haven't found anything decent yet. Is there a memory monitor that allows you to see the memory leaked and find its location? If not, how about just he memory leaked?
I'm making an isometric game and I need to know which takes less memory for scrolling, making everything invisible that you can't see? Like if(!this.base.hitTest(worldHitter))this._visible = false; Or would it be better to remove the movieclips unseen and then reattach them when i should see them?
I wrote an application in flash AS3, and when I trace from flash the total memory usage of the total application is only about 9MB, But at the same time Task Manager Shows the memory usage as 110MB. Around 100MB difference.Flash Trace Method System.totalMemory difference of the Trace from the Beginning of the application to end of the application.
I am going to develop a very simple game for android and for iphone/ipad I have the option to develop it in cocos2d or in adobe flash air (i am not a developer, but i have 2 developers who are offering me the service)I have a developer that states that cocos2d is better and other one that states that adobe flash air.I want it in cross platform.the cost offered by both developers is the same..i have heard that adobe air has the flaw that it is very slow, is this real? if you had the 2 options which will you use to develop your game and why?
I'm making a game that populates user-designed cards into the game using an external xml file. My main class loads the xml file and then calls to the "Card" class, which wants to use the xml file. I've tried using this.parent and it just gives me a null object reference error. This is what I have so far: Main.as
