Stop Moving At Specific X Coordinates?
Nov 19, 2009
Im going to attatch the fla on here...I am also going to give you the script viewable here...im completely a beginner so i made my self notes
also this is not all my coding im just learning off of it to create my own project... What coding would i use to tell the mc to stop scrolling once it reaches a certain x coordinate? for example x=0 (left side of stage) or x= -484 which is when right side of picture is at right side of stage... and can i setup math for it to automatically determine the correct x coordinate (based off mc width) to stop at?? if there is easier scripting to do the same....fill me in
oh and x is off of the stage typically...this is panoramic pics im scrolling
[Code].....

im currently making an "AS3 beat em up" ala streets of rage or double dragon.Currently i have my character moving and a few animations done and i am trying to figure out how to make attacks work.I have some "basic" animation for his attack, but im not sure how to get it to work correctley.What happens is, if you press control (the attack button) whilst the character is walking he just keeps moving and is stopped on the attack frame.I want the character to stop moving if the attack is pressed and once it is released start moving again.

I have a MovieClip on my stage. Inside the MovieClip there are a few buttons (all MovieClips also) and a mask layer to keep anything on the outside invisible.
Problem: My MouseEvent fires and should move objectA into position over objectB. All code in the script tells me it has moved. Tracing the x,y coordinates of objectA also tells me it has moved. The Alpha on objectA is 100% and it is positioned on the topmost layer beneath the mask layer. All this tells me that when the object moves, it should be visible on the stage (the event moves the object into the masked area). Testing disproves everything. The traces all tell me the object is where it is supposed to be but it cannot be seen. I don't understand this and it, amongst other AS3 hiccups, is seriously turning me off Flash as it seems to be a waste of time to try and learn as it seems like 90% of the scripts written will fail 90% of the time.

I'm working on co-developing a game in flash, which involves, among other things, designating a path along which an image has to travel. Basically, it collects mouse coordinates, and needs to move the image to each set of coordinates in order. My co-developer insists that it needs to be done with trigonometry.Or is there some simpler method to move an image/movie clip/etc. cleanly to a given position on the stage?

Excuse the title, had no idea what to call this. I'm creating a simple game with the following components (added picture for clarity):
[URL]
1. Character - The symbol in the center of the stage.
2. Level - The bounds surrounding the stage. Everything in this picture is contained within the level except for the character.
3. Water - The blue square. The water symbol is located within the level symbol.
4. Water droplet - The blue dot floating above the water. This is also located within the level symbol.
Using the arrow keys the player controls the movement of the level. While the character symbol is always located at x=275, y=200 (center stage), the level symbol's coordinates change whenever the arrows are pressed. This gives the player the illusion that they are controlling the character.
When the player makes the character symbol touch the water symbol, I want to move the water droplet to the location of the character. The problem is, I can't for the life of me figure out the coordinates I need as they will always be different depending on where the character touched the water. It's important that the water droplet be inside of the level symbol because after the player drops the water I need it to act as if it's moving with the surroundings.
tl;dr: I essentially need to find the x and y distance from the character symbol to the origin of the level symbol, keeping in mind that the level symbol's location is always changing and that both symbols are located on the stage.

3 buttons, one on top of the other, being 40 pixels far one from the other. Id like to, when any of the buttons clicked, for all of them to move 40 pixels down, changing positions, BUT... the last button has to change places with the first one, going from outside the canvas... Here I attached an animated example of what I whant...

I have this picture which has the dimensions 5599x660 and it's kinda like a moving background, it's moving to the left.Now, when it reaches the end I want it to be replaced by the same pic.Stage size is 950x720.I came up with two possible options:
1. make a duplicate of the pic movieclip and place it on stage right behind the first one and then when the first one is off stage place it right behind the second one and so on...
2. have flash duplicate the pic automatically and place it right behind the original one (I read about that option somewhere I think it's called DuplicateMovieclip)[code]
1. it works, but after the first round - it goes through image 1 (img) then through image 2 (img2) perfectly and then when it's supposed to place image 1 right behind image 2 there's a space of about 100 pixels between them... I don't know why because I gave the right x coordinates in the code...
2. now when u still go on and u go through (the misplaced) image 1 (img) and then u come to the point where it's supposed to place image 2 (img2) right behind image 1 there's also a space between them but only maybe of 5 pixels.How come that with the same pictures with the same code for both of them it's doing something different both times ?

I have menu.swf which loads an external SWF (longmenu.swf)longmenu.swf has a long background on stage, which scrolls according to what the user clicks. It works fine on it's own with tweenLite. But what i need to do is to have menu.swf controls to which part of the background it scrolls or appears at once an item on menu.swf is clicked.

I have 500x500px images in my Library that I want to load to a specific set of coordinates. I've found various hints on how to insert images programatically, but none state how to insert to a specific location.Currently, my code goes something like this:
var image:Bitmap;
switch(conStyle){
case 4:
var chart:IF= new IF(); //Flash CS5 doesn't need the dimensions passed on
image= new Bitmap(IF);
}
However, this sets the default location to the upper left corner. How can I set the xy coordinates for the image to be displayed at?

I modified the falling snow to move upwards to make bubbles, but now I want them to come from a specific spot from movie clip which is moving constantly and roating. They also have to stay within the bounds of the water. I tried placing it on the spot I want on the movie clip, and alter the code like so:
Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
//variables that will modify the rising bubbles

I m having some problems with my menu I m working on.Its weird cus I d already have done the same menu once and worked fine..The selector mark is suposed to "mark" the selection on the menu after a selection is pressed. But I m having problems with the X and y coordinates and scales of the MC and when I click on the option,the MC gets smaller and then bigger to the size I want.Its suposed change scale and position but its not working like it is suposed to work.I m not sure either if I m setting the Mc on the initial x and y coordinates.

Imagine two movieclips, both on the same Y axis. I want one MC to be able to diagonally move to the other MC X axis, all while making a perfect diagonal line until it reaches 100y. So just like this picture, that MC moves in a perfect diagonal until it matches the other MC.x, and 100y (no matter what, it can't go past 100y but must equal 100y). I probably made it sound more complicated than it is.

for a menu i use 3 MCs, when you click one of them, the two others MCs will make place for the 'options' of the clicked menu. What i want to do is give a specific _x and _y coordinates for the menus to move at when the other one is clicked (start and arrival, and have a motion tween between them). see what i mean?

I have a problem and I've looked everywhere for a solution but haven't found one yet. I'm trying to move the playhead to a specific frame inside a movieclip but can't find any code that will allow this to happen.
In more detail: I have 5 movieclips that act as my main pages on my main timeline. from inside let's say, from the 5th movieclip on frame 100 i want to move out of this clip and into the 3rd movieclip BUT NOT to go to frame 1 but move to frame 50 of the 3rd movieclip. I've tried everything but no matter what happens the first frame is always displayed, and i don't want that.

Issue: I need to move a rectangle (that has only sides and no fills) to a specific location on the animation, what happens is that if the user enters some info (through HTML form processed by PHP and sent to the movie through FlashVars), this info should then me find the x and y coordinates of a button that should then be overlapped by this said rectangle.Code:
Code:
if (_root.signUp == 1){ // the FlashVar variable flag
var buttoSym= "_root.thumbMain.thumbSymbol.b" + _root.signNumber
