Making Something Happen After A Variable Has Been On The Stage For A Certain Time?
Dec 13, 2011
I'm making an Elder Scrolls type game and I want my enemies to hurt me after a certain time.So pretend like 5 seconds after they come on the stage they would take 5 hp off me.Then when one of the enemies die it stops until another enemy comes on the stage then it counts how long its been on the stage.This is what I have so far:
Actionscript Code:
var tmr1:Timer=new Timer(2800); var tmr2:Timer=new Timer(5000);

Say you have a document class, and a customMenu class. If they import some of the same classes, would it be less overhead if everything was in the document class? Thus imports only happen one time?

I've been trying to use random to make something happen a certain percentage of the time. For example, for making the scientist go to frame 91 half the time and 181 the other half, I was using this code:

Is it possible to make tweens happen at the same time with Greensock Timelinelite?
I know it could be possible to fake it by putting a negative delay in but that's not very accurate.

I'm trying to create a particular effect using the Kirupa tutorial for Flash Snow 3.0.The size of the stage I'm working with is 800x600, but I need the animation to only happen in the center of the stage, in an area approximately 400x400. I've tried masking to no effect I'm sure it's something that I just need to enter in the script,

I'm having a huge problem with my Flash file; here is what I'm trying to do and whats happening:
I have a scene where with a movie clip that is controlled by the keyboard, when it hit a certain point of the stage it opens a new scene where a certain animation should happen.
The problem is every time the animation hits that certain point the code I was using continues running and flash shows me an error message.
Error message:
How can I make this code work only on the scene its placed so I won't get this ERROR?
Here is the code I'm using:

I want to have a variable which changes from time to time based on certain parameters.
For Example:
var poop:Number;
onEnterFrame = function(){if(donkey==1){poop = 2;}
if(donkey==2){poop = 5;}
}
But it doesn't work. I can't seem to change the value of "poop" with code. It only accepts a value that I place, ex. var poop = 2, but that doesn't let me change it.

If I have a button on my screen that I want to make a box appear when clicked, how would I go about doing that? It also needs to disappear after 10 seconds. I am not sure if this is an issue, but it needs to appear on the screen while everything else is happening underneath it. So the rest of the animation must continue on as this appears above it.

I have one button, that when clicked should display several images, one at a time. At the minute they are all just coming on together, how do i seperate the functions so they come on individually, for example like bullet points, e.g click once and image1 appears, click again and image2 appears etc... so eventually all of the images are on screen, but they don't all just appear together, if that makes sense!

Is there a really simple way of creating a Flash time/date signature? I did a couple videos in sort of a surveilance camera style. So I was hoping to do an overlay with the date and have the time going up in seconds.

I can think of some tedious long ways of doing it, just wondering if there's an easy way to do it in AS3

I was thinking the other week - wouldn't it be great to have a flash clock that not only tells a classy analogue time but also, like a church clock, gives out bell noises when the hour is reached, an also chimes the number of hours the time corresponds too. So at 1pm/am it will chime once, and at midnight you get 12 chimes and so on, I'm sure you get my meaning. I'm not great when it comes to working with sound, infact I've never added much more than a custom click noise on a button. How to go about this? I've attached a nice church bell noise for y'all just incase.

I am working on a client who wants a "Game-like" tour of their facilities on their website. I can use flash and do some very basic actionscript ..especially cutting and pasting
At any rate, I have character that moves on the main tour map and he starts in the parking lot...he can go from one screen ( scene ) to another. But when the character returns to the main tour map he always starts at the same location. As opposed to starting where he just came from. Such as if he just went into the "Process Plant" he should start on the main map at the "Proccessing plant" ... Can I set the X Y coordinates in some type of variable that remembers where he came from when he exits another scene and returns to the main map...?

I've moved to actionscript 3.0 from PHP, and there are some things I just do not get. For example, making a variable name with another variable.Let's say I have movieclips called object1, object2, object3 and so on. I used Math.round() and Math.random() to get a random integer number, and I want to select one of my movieclips according to this number I get.
In php, you can do this:
PHP Code:
<?php
$objectNumber 1;//Let's say this is a random number

Basically I'm trying to load a variable from an external file and then make that variable available for anything.
Code:
var where;
locSource = new LoadVars ();
locSource.load("source.txt");[code]....
I've tried all the variations of this I can think of. I've defined "where" as a global variable both outside and inside the function, tried to define a separate global value within the function (and changed the syntax of the trace accordingly in either case), nothing works. Basically, the function is being loaded properly; if I put the trace inside the function it shows up perfectly, but the variable isn't available for anything else, which is what I need to happen.

it's possible to have AS take the filename of itself and make it a variable. I need it to be done by AS only. I know it's possible in PHP, but I'm not sure about AS. I'm guessing if it's possible it's one line of code. I'm using Flash 8 but publishing at Flash 6, AS 2.

var myNumberArray:Array = new Array;
myNumberArray[1] = new Object;
myNumberArray[1].myProperty = 10;
[Code]....
This obviously traces out the string "myNumberArray[1].myProperty", completely disregarding that there's already a variable/property called myNumberArray[1].myProperty, which has a value of its own.
Tracing out this[myStringVariable] just gives an 'undefined'.
Is there any way to get it to trace "10", using only the 'myStringVariable'? In other words, to make AS understand that myStringVariable contains the name of another variable/property?

I have an mp3 playing. What I would like is to have a movieclip that is located in the library appear, complete it's animation then get removed. The movie clip must complete this proccess 4 times, randomly during the length of the song but never at the same time and not in the last 5 seconds of the song. BTW I can't do this manually by just firing it off a random amount of times because this code will be used with lots of different mp3's, so I need to use the dynamic data I get by retrieving the song length.
I have the code working to retrieve the length of the song, and I have a variable that stores the length minus 5 seconds from the end, so I bascially have the length of time I wish to work with. My problem is making the movie clips appear 4 times randomly throughout that length of time. The code is below (what I have so far), the movieclip is stored in the library as circle_mc.
The timer I'm using at the beginning of the code (to retrieve the length of the song) is set to run after 2 seconds this is because there is a delay in the music starting and if it did it instantly the number retrieved obviously would be 0, so I delay it by 2 secs till I know the song is playing. At the moment I'm just trying to get it to fire twice, at the moment it fires once or not at all

I'd have thought this to be simple, but nothing works. I have a game I'm working on, and in it, there will be a speed stat. The fast you are going, the faster everything else has to move to make it look like you are moving faster.The problem is, the speed stat (obviously not called speed) is one of the upgradable stats, and needs to be available for the class handling upgrades for it to be changed, and it needs to be read by the class handling moving objects.The second class however, has absolutely no idea the variable even exists. I've tried for weeks to look up a tutorial on it, but there doesn't seem to be any at all that I can find. (I am using public variables, and have tried various ways of trying to point at the class it's from but apparently I must be using the wrong syntax)

AS3 says you need to load variables into a class?my variables look like this... (the whole point of playing around with variables was that if I had to make a change I could access one place and change them but now I realse that I can't access or call them outside the movie clip they are in.[code] The Wholesale price. A wholesaler is usually a big shed where goods are stored.

I've got an animation that plays, and then at the end of the timeline plays a movieclip. This movieclip displays a piece of text, which is extracted from an XML file, the piece of text is selected at random currently out of a list.
Then when the clip is pressed (button), it goes back to the previous timeline, and then plays through again, including the movieclip, and now a new piece of text is picked at random and displayed.I now want to make the pieces of text display sequentially, but am having some trouble.
put in a counter, and the text that is displayed from the array corresponds with the number on the counter, unfortunately, this gets wiped every time it plays, because the counter gets remade. Is there any way to create a variable outside of the timeline maybe, in a actionscript file maybe, so that I can just add to this. I have been running a trace, and can't seem to get it to not wipe.
