IDE :: Why Does Load (new URLRequest("my Http Link" +new Date().time)); Run Slowly

Apr 21, 2010

Im building a flash banner that takes dynamic xml data from another domain and displays them as links. To make the swf reload the xml (the xml links change all the time) every time Internet explorer is updated (instead of loading from the cache) I added +new Date().time to my URLrequest, and suddenly the links takes 9 seconds to display. Firefox doesnt have the cache problem and without the +new Date().time it displays the updated links almost instantaneously. Can anyone tell me why this happens and how I can fix it?? a 9 seconds loadtime is too long.

Here is the first parts of my code:
__________________________________________________ ____________
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var xmlData:XML = new XML();
//en trace variabel til hover state. Fjern da ogs� variablen de steder den benyttes.
var hover:Boolean;

[code]....

After that I use the linkList to dynamically create the links as textfields, with some formatting, hoverstate, linebreaks etc.
only thing I changed was adding the +new Date().time, and it displays the links so slow.

ActionScript 2.0 :: CS3 News Ticker XML To Load Four Time - Copy Text - An Image - Date And A URL

Mar 2, 2010

I'm making a very simple news ticker that uses XML to load four items: copy text, an image, date and a URL. The script was pieced together from tutorials and a bit of self-teaching, so I know it's probably not great. The AS is pasted below. Everything loads just fine, but the button script returns an "undefined" error. I assume this is because the item is no longer found in the array, but I'm not entirely sure. I also think it may be that the loadMovie method isn't working well with a specific item in the array. Also the link does not work. *Note* I know there are probably more advanced ways to tackle this but I'd like to keep this at my learning level so I can grow with it. :-)

IDE :: Increase The Spawn Count Slowly Over Time?

Apr 13, 2010

Im creating a Game and Watch style game. Now with these games the enemies/obstacles spawn slowly at first then increase their amount over time.

I have created a function to spawn the enemy movie clips until a number of clips have spawned, they then move along their Class keyframes until they are either killed or game over.

how I can increase the spawn count slowly over time? I�d also like to randomize the spawn of certain enemies, how can i do that? Do i make for if conditions?

Here is my spawn and move code.

Code:

// ============ ENEMY SPAWNER
function spawnEnemy():void {
var chance:int=Math.floor(Math.random()*8);
var newEnemy:MovieClip;

Actionscript 3 :: The Framerate Of One Movieclip Slowly Declines Over Time

Apr 10, 2010

I'm creating a flash rhythm game. I have a looping (at a certain frame I have a gotoAndPlay) movieclip that contains the notes that scroll by, which loops for about three minutes. As the level progresses, the movieclip's framerate begins to lag and stutter. As far as the movieclip is concerned, no variables or functions are being called that would cause this. I have no idea how this could occur. It is also worth mentioning that the notes are represented by text (non-rasterized text), if that makes any difference. As far as posting my code goes, I think it would be far too convoluted to be worth your time. I just don't understand how the framerate of this movieclip could drop independent of the rest of the game.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Jpegs Load Too Slowly Through Loadclip() And LoadMovie()

Dec 8, 2011

At work, I am trying to load JPGs externally using AS2 loadMovie() and loadClip() and the photos take too long to display. My boss does not want a preloader, so the photos just need to display on our website immediately.

Some of the photos are between 75K and 150K and photos do not display in order. They come in at different times. Because of this, my boss is claiming that I did not complete the pages although they are done and I am just loading the photos from outside the SWF.

The decided they wanted the current date and time to show up on the certificate for their records. The date and time displays correctly, but when you go to print the certificate you get the default numerals, not the date and time, once the print dialogue box goes away after printing, you can see it change back to correct day and time.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Eastern Date Time?

May 2, 2008

I'm sorry to ask such a stupid question but the documentation is not clear to me. And I really don't want to screw it up. I am creating a flash piece that needs to change its content based on the date eastern time. so that the content on monday 00:00:00 will be different than the content sunday 11:59:59. I have everything set up for local time ie:

Code:var currentDate:Date = new Date();

But do to legal issues involved I need to set this up so that even if the user is in Alaska the content will change based on Eastern Standard Time.I'm sure I can use timeZoneOffset, but I'm just not sure how to implement it.
