Actionscript 3 :: Avoid Two Buttons Being Pressed Simultaneously?
Mar 28, 2012
I am developing a game with a large amount of code. The unfinished version of the game can be found here[url]...
There are two Key Listeners. One listens for SPACEBAR for the big jump, the other listens for CTRL for the small jump. The problem I am experiencing is that when the two buttons are pressed precisely the same time, both jump actions occur, resulting in a super big jump. (A combination of the two jump heights.)[code]...

I was reading the "XY motion tutorial" and I am interested to know how to I create diagonal motion when two button is pressed simultaneously? Another question concerning the "Random motion tutorial" is what logical step did you take to come up with the "norm" variable? I notice that the motion becomes jumpy when "norm" was taken out.

I have the following code for the button over/out effect. It is nice but instead of writing the same code for function for each button (I have 15 buttons), how to shorted the code by modifying it?
Code:
Button1_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, navOver);
Button1_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, navOut);
function navOver(e:MouseEvent):void {

What I have is a series of buttons created via attachmovie based on XML nodes. I want to make sure all buttons are all clicked. What I have below is the onRelease of the button and I need to put my checkDone function in there because of the XML onLoad function. What I am struggling with is how to check if each has been clicked. Typically I would just do like but1==true but that does not seem to work.
_root["but"+b].onRelease = function() {
function checkDone(whichbut) {
done = true;

I have 2 main movie clips, one for the menu bar and one for the content, there is then a movie clip within each one of those, one to hold the set of buttons, and one to hold the content movie clips. The menu bar has a control to flip between 2 sets of buttons. the viva content button works fine to begin with, but after the menu bar control is clicked, the content buttons stops working. Code is as Follows: All of the code (bar a few stop() flags on cirtain frames) is located on frame 1 of the root, which is the only frame on the root.
barControl.barContent.barUp.addEventListener(Mouse Event.CLICK, menuSwitchHandle); barControl.barContent.barDown.addEventListener(Mou seEvent.CLICK, menuSwitchHandle); barControl.barContent.barMenu.vivaBtn.addEventList ener(MouseEvent.CLICK, vivaHandle);

Buttons in flex can be pressed with the space key, but a client would like to press enter instead of space. This can be achieved by programming each button, but it would be very time consuming. How to do this in the less amount of time?

my fla file will be attached below. (its not the greatest looking thing but i just need to understand how to do what i want it to). i've got a navigation menu at the bottom of my stage with 2 movieclips. each movieclip has an instance of a button inside, a motion tween of a _alpha graphic flying in, and text to distinguish each button.
my problem #1: on the stage when you hit 'home', it'll fly in, but when you hit 'schedules' next, that will fly in too, right over anything i would have placed on 'home'. i'd like to prevent that by maybe having an outro animation (like a reverse of the intro animation) that can check whether another button was pressed before playing & when its completely off the stage, to play the next content corresponding to the button pressed.
my problem #2: i dont like how everytime when on the stage, i press the 'home' button or 'schedules' button multiple times, that they keep replaying the animation. i'd like it to know that its already been pressed & doesnt need to play again. i have a feeling this problem might be an easier one to figure out but i'm drawing a blank with it.

I have a navigation that contains approx 8 movieclips that are actually acting as buttons but I'm having trouble getting them to work.I am currently testing 2 buttons/mcs at the moment. Which are named and have the script on the actions layer. The problem is, that when either button is pressed, it is registering both buttons as being pressed.[code]

I�v build a simple flash projector to offer to my local fire department Essentially they used to in internal audio alarms to warn firefighters when there is an accident, fire, aggression, etcIn the version 1.0 they click several buttons, one to play the alarm sound, otherto announce the vehicle or vehicles that goes out, and a last one that says what is occurring.
The problem they report is that the sounds play immediately when you click in each of the buttons, and even the sound overlaps the other, which makes they click on each button and have to wait for the sound to finish and then click next. All this is normal because I associated the sounds to the buttons. What do I need to do the flash in this order in the version 2 of my projector:
1 The Fireman choose the type of alarm you want to play and click the button corresponding (but do not want the sound to play now) let's imagine that he pressed the button "alarm 1"
2 The Fireman choose (s) vehicles which are going out to the occurrence (but do not want the sound to play now) let's imagine that pressed the button "ABSC01"
3 The Fireman choose the type of occurrence (but do not want the sound to play now) we will imagine that pressed the button "fire"
4 finally the fireman holding down the "PLAY" (the green on on the top of the image) and this Makes the sounds selected to start playing in sequence, liker "Alarm 1" then "ABSC01 "and then" Fire "
Logically speaking I believe that each button must declare a variable associated with every unique sound, and then pressing the button takes the variables and plays them in sequence and without overlapping sounds.

I quite often have to create portfolio sites which have a list of projects on the lefthand side. When each project is clicked the relevent content is loaded into the main screen. I'm now moving towards creating such sites where the menu content is XML driven.
What I want to know is, what is the BEST way to do the old radio button style thing where the clicked button changes state (eg. colour) and the when another button is clicked, it returns to it's up state.
I've done this before, when I've created the buttons manually, by creating a 'clicked' variable that can either be true or false for each button, the value of which is changed when a button is clicked. The problem with this (I think) is that it relies upon me knowing how many buttons I have, and if this is driven by XML that is going to get messy.
What I'm after is a very simple, self contained method of setting a button's state when it is clicked (no problem), but then 'unclicks' when any other button in the menu is pressed.

I have a circle movieclip that needs to rotate to certain destinations depending on buttons pressed in the navigation. Everything works fine, except when you go from green to cyan and vice versa, it does a full 360 rotation instead of just moving to the destination.

I'm developing a game, here is a screenshot:I have a function in my main loop called moveShip that moves the player's ship if some buttons are pressed. The trouble is, some commands began to break it recently, such as removeChild(debriefingScreen), and I have no idea why. Also, firing (spawning bullet movie clips) restores the moveShip functionality 0_

I have a function on root:
_root.fadeBox_mc.onEnterFrame = function (){
if (fade){
this.nextFrame();[code]....
This causes a mc to fade in and out on rollover/rollout. But what I wanna make is a box that fades in when pressed on the button and fade out when pressed for the second time. But if I say
on (press){
_root.fade = true;
}
the mc fades in, but I cant do another on (press) to fade out. Is this too confusing?

PHP Code:[code].....

This won't work, because flash doesn't know which mc he has to move when "+" is pressed, but I still want this to work. It's weird, when you want to drag one, you always start dragging the lower one...

I am struggling a bit with keys on the keyboards controlling a movieclip to happen.Ive got a person moving when pressing right and left, and a movieclip with three frames: First frame is a movieclip with the person standing still, looking bored. The second frame is the person moving right, and the third frame is the person moving left.This is the code that Ive inserted into the persons actions on scene1:
if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {_x += speed;this.gotoAndStop(2);_xscale = +scale;}
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {_x -= speed;this.gotoAndStop(3);_xscale = -scale;}
this code works alright accept that when the keys are not pressed it doesnt stand still, the legs are still moving, so I tried to include this code aswell:
if (!Key.isDown(KEY.RIGHT)) [code]....this makes the person standing still when not pressed but not moving the legs when turning right and left.

I have a 'master' SWF file that calls in about 6 external .SWF containing graphics. This 'master' also pulls in external .FLVs (some that are video+audio, some that are audio-only) and makes the file the contentPath of my FLVPlayback component. On some of my Point of Interest buttons (numbered buttons that direct the user to view content), both FLV and SWF are being called. Locally (on my own computer), the videos sync together perfectly (graphics changing to match the audio description). But when i test the presentation on a 'testing server' (i.e. the internet) There is a pronounced lag between the SWF and FLV.
My question is: How do I code the AS2 to NOT play either the FLV or the SWF until BOTH have loaded completely? I'm looking for ideas and pseudo-code right now to point me in the right direction. I'm leaning in the direction of an event listener coupled with getBytesLoaded and getBytesTotal. Probably simple as an if statement with a listener and getBytes function?

I would like to make a small player where two sounds* can be compared.
- PLAY and CHANGE buttons
- On pressing PLAY button, two sounds (Sound-A and Sound-B for example) should play simultaneously (at the same time).
- While those two sounds play, Sound-B should be MUTED and Sound-A should be hear.
- On pressing CHANGE button, the situation changes: Sound-A is muted and Sound-B can be hear. And vice-versa.
*two sounds: both songs are the same, but one of them is remastered

Is it necessary to unload Movies in Flash, or can I keep multiple movies loaded simultaneously? Are there memory requirements that make it necessary to limit the number of Flash movies loaded at one time?

I have 2 buttons.There is a MOUSE_OUT event for button 1 and a MOUSE_OVER event button 2.The buttons are right next to each other.Each event leads to a different frame.When the mouse moves from button 1 to button 2, both events get fired, first MOUSE_OUT and then MOUSE_OVER - but the MOUSE_OVER event cuts off the MOUSE_OUT event and doesn't give it a chance to fully execute. To be more clear, for each event, a function is called which has "gotoAndPlay(x)"(x is some different frame number for each)The gotoAndPlay() will go to lets say frame 437 and play exactly 2 frames.But when MOUSE_OVER is fired and it calls my function, it calls the gotoAndPlay() BUT it doesn't get to play the 2 frames.It gets cut off because the MOUSE_OUT gets fired which calls a function which then calls gotoAndPlay() and plays a different 2 frames. How can I allow the first 2 frames to fully play and then the last 2 frames?

In a custom queue, there's a push() and a pop() function. The pop() may be called any time on an Event.COMPLETE, so does this mean that code can be running in push() and pop() simultaneously? If so, is there a way to prevent the code from being run in both functions at the same time?

I really hope someone can help me with this one! I've been trying to loop several embedded flv files in one flash document. I've found some really useful script that works when applied to one flv file in the document, however I don't really know how to adjust the actionscript so that it applies to the other three flv files on the page.[code]
