ActionScript 2.0 :: [CS4] Limit An Object's Movement
Feb 5, 2010I've made a sort of sliding menu in Flash (CS4) which is basically a movie clip that has a function assigned to it that if the cursor goes over a button it starts moving in a direction.
Code:
_root.right.onRollOver = function() {
goRight = true;
};

Now, I don't want that "content" object to slide all the way out of the screen. How can I make it stop at certain position, say x=770? Or is there any better way?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Limit The Cursor Movement?
Apr 8, 2010i got a fullscreen museum installation with a trackball input.all the menu controls are limited to a strip in the bottom 90 pixels, so i want the cursor to be limited to this area.something like this, prehaps:
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, limitMe);
function limitMe(e:MouseEvent):void {if (stage.mouseY>940){mouseY=940};if (stage.mouseY<850){mouseY=850)};}
the problem of course is that mouseY cannot be set

Mar 23, 2011Lately I am getting quite frustrated by the fact that Click in Flash is basically mouse down and up (staying in the same object). I would like to add further limits like time and movement to validate a click. How to do it cleanly? I did a check with mouse down/move/up but got some issues, how to do it successfully (and tested).

ActionScript 2.0 :: Move Object With Keyboard And Limit With MovieClip?
Aug 9, 2011I try to create a MovieClip that i can move with the arrow keys. That worked with:
ActionScript Code:
var keyListener = {};
keyListener.onKeyDown = function()
{
[code]....
Now I tried to limit the area where I can move this MovieClip "cursor_mc". I found a lot of solutions but those where always solutions where the limitation zone was a rectangular. I was looking for a solution where I can create a "cursorlimit_mc" MovieClip and as long as the "cursor_mc" clip is inside of this clip I can move it with my keys. If it isnt possible to limit that, maybe I can create more than just 4 points and draw the limitation szone?

View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Collisions Between Moving Circle And Rectangle Object
Oct 9, 2010In AS3 is there an easy way for collisions to take place between a moving circle and a rectangle object. A moving circle has a direction and you need to know how it collides with an object rather than knowing it just hits. In .net you use a points test where you test several points around a circle to see what hits an object and then you can work out what direction it will bounce off.
View 2 RepliesActionscript 3 :: Gradually Limit Rotation Of An Object Influenced By Y Position Of Mouse
Nov 23, 2009I have created a flash app in which there is a circle with circles plotted along it's circumference, it is rotated when the mouse is moved up or down. The rotation is drawn directly from the y position of the mouse pointer. What I would like to do is grade the movement some how so that the further down the mouse pointer goes the less impact on rotation the movement has.
My current code is like this:
myCircle.rotationZ = e.localY;
Is there some form of math formula I could use which would reduce the amount of rotation the greater the y position of the mouse position?
Actionscript 3 :: Scrollbar With Sprite And Rectangle Won't Move Text, Just The Rectangle It's Painted On?
Mar 8, 2010For those of you still with me, I am tasked with making some scrollable content in Flash. Load in a TextFile using LoadURL(), then display it. To get the text, we've written our own class TextFieldExtended, which is basically just there to give the textfile location to the constructor and then have the class do the various steps of getting it and loading it for you.So I needed to get a Scrollbar, which I got hereThe thing is, it works with Sprites.After trying to get it to accept TextFieldExtended, I bumped into a block, since the scrollbar relied heavily on a Sprite property that TextFieldExtended didn't have or could have.
So I tried adding the TextFieldExtended instance to a Sprite instance using addchild.A problem occurs here that I do not know how to handle. It seems that a Rectangle is drawn and the Text is drawn on that. I say this because the scrollbar moves the Rectangle up and down a bit, but the text doesn't scroll, just the Rectangle it is positioned in and the text then moves along with it.My question: can this be fixed, or is does this implementation of scrollbars need a lot of adaptations before this is possible?

Jun 26, 2010I would like to create a rectangle inside of a rectangle, starting approximately 15% inward from the right side of the other rectangle.
I know how to create rectangles with:
Code:
var newHotRect:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
newHotRect.graphics.beginFill(0x00FF00);
newHotRect.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, 100, 100);
addChild(newHotRect);
But how would I make another rectangle on top of that (the black one pictured) that is approximately 15% from the right?
I toyed around with .right, and .bottomright with no success. Can anyone lead me in the right direction? or even finding the x and y of the upper right or bottom right side of a rectangle?

Apr 11, 2007I'm having a little difficulty getting to grips with the getBounds() Movie Clip function. I assumed the getbounds() method simply got the boundary coordinates for the movie Clip, that one could use to draw a rectangle. This is what I'm trying to do;I'm trying to get a movie clips coordinate bounds, and use the min and max values of x and y to draw rectangle around the object. Simple right? But in my case, I'm getting some unexpected results. I wonder does ther registration point of the object determine the coordinate values? Also are the coordinate values local to the clip instance or global to the stage?

ActionScript 1/2 :: Constant Speed Movement Of Object?
Apr 20, 2009I am trying to get an object to track my mouse on press and i am using a tween. However, the nature of the tween is such that the time taken for the object would move would always be constant despite the distance.
I would like to make the object travel at a constant speed regardless of the distance. Is it correct for me to use a tween? If not what should I be using?The code for my tween is as follows.
map_mc.tracker_mc._x = map_mc._xmouse;map_mc.tracker_mc._y = map_mc._ymouse;startx = map_mc.crosshair_mc._x;endx = map_mc.tracker_mc._x;starty = map_mc.crosshair_mc._y;endy = map_mc.tracker_mc._y;
trackTweenx = new Tween(map_mc.crosshair_mc, "_x", Regular.easeIn, startx, endx, spd, true);trackTweeny = new Tween(map_mc.crosshair_mc, "_y", Regular.easeIn, starty, endy, spd, true);
map_mc.tracker_mc is the mouse cursor that would appear when onPress while the map_mc.crosshair_mc is the object that would track my cursor's movements.

View 2 RepliesActionscript 3.0 :: Using Shape As Object Movement Boundary?
Jan 18, 2010Let's say you have a room, and a little circle representing the player. Let's say also that you decide to draw a shape overlapping the room, set alpha to 0%, and use hitTestPoint() between this shape and the player to create the movement boundary. In short, as long as the player's centerpoint is overlapping the invisible shape, he/she is free to move around.Now, I decided to make things more complicated and add an obstacle to the room - a table in the center. One would think that cutting a rectangle out of the middle of the invisible shape would prevent the player from being able to move there. No dice, the player passes right through the hole in the middle of the invisible shape. The problem, as I see it, is that when the shape is converted to a symbol for use in actionscript, the entire volume of the movie clip is used for collision detection, not just the shape's volume. No matter what options and settings I play with, I can't get the hole in the shape to stay cut-out when I convert the whole thing to a symbol.
Now, I know I could probably add an extra shape to represent the obstacle, and add extra collision detection into my actionscript. However, given that there will be a large number of rooms in the game, and a variable number of obstacles in each room, this is not an elegant solution. The most elegant solution would be to figure out a way to map the playable area in a room with a single movie clip (/graphic).So, I turn to you fine folk. Can anyone tell me how to convert a shape to any kind of symbol, and preserve features like holes within the shape (as in, not have them glazed over as part of the symbol's body
