I am a web designer and have a client who is interested in having a game application created similar to farmville or mafiawars on facebook. This is outside of my realm of Flash for sure and would have to be handled by someone else.I realize there are many factors that affect this question but could anyone give me a ballpark cost of creating an application like that? My client is just curious as to the realistic possibility cost wise?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Health & Money Variable In Game

Oct 28, 2010

I'm working on a game where I need to have a variable for money and a variable for Health, or in my case, I call it Energy. Most tutorials I'm finding are in AS2 and the AS3 ones are not this basic thing that I need. Basically, I have an item shop with a pizza button, and in their respective dynamic text fields, you can see the status of your Energy and your Money. So, let's say the person clicks the pizza to buy it, Flash will subtract 10 (for 10 bucks) from the person's total money value and add 15 for total Energy points.This is what I've written so far and I'm writing all the script in Flash, not outside using classes or packages. I can tell already that I'm missing something. How do I write it so that Flash knows to add 15 Energy from that Pizza button and can I update the values of the variables and kick off that mouse event in the same function?[code]

How To Build Bot For Online Flash Game

Nov 20, 2010

There are a lot of flash games that ask u to do repetitive actions. An example would be FarmVille or getting statistics on on-line poker game. What is the best way to create an interface between what you see on the screen, a bot's algorithm and clicking of the mouse. So basically, when I'm playing a texas hold'em on face book and if I get AA I want the bot to click all-in. If I don't get AA I want to fold. This is just an example, not the actual strategy. Or another examples would be routing tasks in farmville. So basically. It has to grab a picture of the screen. recognize patterns and convert them into an input of the algorithm. The output algorithms would be clicking on some other (may be same) patterns.

Flash :: Php - Having An Online Highscore Leaderboard For A Game

Jan 12, 2011

I'm trying to develop a simple Flash game using Actionscript 2 (I know its a bit dated, but its a simple project that doesen't benefict much from AS3), and I came up with an ideia of implementing an online leaderboard that records and shows the highscore of the player.

This isn't anything too complicated, but I seem to be having problem finding resources online that explain how I should implement this. All I want is a call, probably to a PHP/MySQL database that records the player's name (which will be recorded via a input window) and its current score. It would also have to show the best all time scores, by order. I should remind you that I am working on a Actionscript 2 so Actionscript 3 solutions are probably not going to work.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Making An Online Game

Mar 13, 2009

I want to make a multiplayer flash game- something very basic, like each person controls a dot which they can move around (doing this as a learning experience, not because it seems like a great concept for a game ). I'm pretty new to PHP and mySQL, and don't have a lot of experience in making flash apps that interact with outside scripts... and here's the approach i've thought up so far.i design the swf so that every 30th of a second or so it checks an xml file on the server (http:servernamedata.xml), and also sends a request to the server to run a php script and sends it four boolean values (which keys the player is pressing). The php script runs- it loads a mysql database which has each players x/y coordinates, adjusts those coordinates according to the bool (if player is pressing keys), resends the x/y coordinates to the mysql database, and generates an updated version of the xml, which the swf running on each players client computer will check to determine where to draw each dot.So to get to the point, what i want to know is:

1: is what i described even possible?

2: if it can be done, is this a good way to go about it or is it horribly innefficient (i eventually want to make games more complicated than moving dots around, and have as much code run server-side as possible to prevent hacking/cheating)

3: if this is a possible and OK way to do this, what sort of AS3 script do you use to make a flash app have a server execute a php script?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Online Game - How To Disable Caching

Nov 22, 2003

I'm making an online game where you can walk around in a city, and you see the others walk around as well at the same time. I made the script in php. The problem now is: I'm loading vars from flash out of the php-file, I know I can fool the cache by adding a unique number to it. That works, but I'm loading the php-file every second and if you look at your temporary internet files, you get a list of maybe thousand times the same php-file. In the beginning that didn't really matter, but now when I look at my site stats the list is like 5000 pages long... There must be an other way to fool the cache. And I was thinking about an old html-tag I used once to make sure your html-file wasn't loaded from cache: [URL].

ActionScript 2.0 :: Creating Form To Calculate Cost Of Materials

Apr 15, 2007

I build signs for a living and I want to create an form that will calculate the cost of materials based on an initial size of the sign. I am at step one with the scripting after having laid out some input text fields for width, height, and area. The catch is this. I need the area text field (named A_txt) to calculate the width input text field (named W_txt) and height input text field (H_txt) and auto update A_txt as the numbers are inputed on the user side. The area text field will be the initial number for other calculations later in the form for determining the price of the customers sign.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Paypal To Take Money Within The Same SWF And Just Allow Further Functions To Run On Confirmation?

Oct 30, 2011

I am currently writing a Flash AS3 website where users upload file(s), I take payment, and when payment has been received, the files are emailed to me to be processed, all within the same SWF.

I can get the upload and email part all working nicely. My question is about the payment part. Ideally, I would like to use Paypal but the critical point is that payment and then confirmation must all be within the same SWF. If Paypal directs to another page and returns to a different URL (or the same one for that matter), the SWF would have ended which would be a problem for the emailing part.

Is there a solution for Paypal to take money within the same SWF and just allow further functions to run on confirmation?

Actionscript 3 :: Button Text Appears At The Cost Of Knowing Which Answer Was Clicked?

Apr 5, 2011

The code runs fine, but the problem I'm having is that the text box that is suppose to go onto of my answer buttons is behind the button itself... however, if I change two lines of code around, the answer validation code doesn't pick up the which answer was clicked (it returns undefined). This is infuriating!Look for the line "//INSERT HERE." If I take the line, "var answerField:TextField = createText(answer,answerFormat,answerSprite,0,0,450);" and put it there instead, it returns the right answers (doesn't return undefined), but I can no longer see the text. I've included the createText function as well.
