Actionscript 3 :: How To Organize Classes

Mar 13, 2012

It's a bit basic question. But, I fail to understand how to solve it. I have an application which has several enteties. E.g. pike <-- fish --> shark. Where fish is a base class.I am doing some kind of lake, so all my instances of fish class can move only within some oarders. Even more, they all are randomly created on one of the edges of the lake and swim to another depending on the edge they are located at. Here is how it looks for a base class:

public class Fish extends FlxSprite
{
[Embed(source="./resources/Elipse.png")]

ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Organize Lot Of Maps

Nov 25, 2011

I was wondering how MMO's such as AQworlds URL... handle maps on the stage.In my game there would be one static map per screen. The background does not move, only the player. The player can move on to the next screen by walking over arrows on the map.How would I go about storing the maps? Is it good practice to just keep each map screen as a separate object in Flash and just delete the map and make create a new map from the library when the player moves around? Should I load the maps externally? Or should I have one map object and keep each stage on a separate frame and just toggle between frames?I am not looking for code but concepts and ideas. This is my first try at making a multiplayer game and I am not sure of the "Best practices" of maps.

ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Organize Project

Aug 18, 2009

I'm doing a project for school and based on what was designed I'm pretty sure it will need to be done in AS3. I've got experience with AS3, for small projects I have little trouble. This project on the other hand has 3 modules which will contain 3 lessons each, and each lesson has 5 practice problems. I don't know where to start.What I've started with is a menu screen with 5 practice problem pictures on it. When I click on a practice problem picture it brings you to the appropriate problem. Upon completion of the problem it pops up an arrow that brings the student back to the menu but with previously completed problems greyed out.

I can't seem to get variables from children to work with the main actionscript that's on the first frame of the project.I've been reading Essential ActionScript 3.0 by Moock but I'm having trouble trying to apply what he's describing to the project I'm working on.I'd like to be able to figure out things like...these are my packages, these are my classes, and these are so and so. I think I can work from there

ActionScript 3.0 :: Organize Functions Into One File?

Jul 30, 2009

I made some general useful functions for my project that I use in many different parts of the code.

I broke the code down into classes.

I can't seem to call the functions I want from each class.. right now I simply copy and paste the code of these functions into each class I need them in.

Is there any easy way to make a big file with all the general functions that are not class spesific to keep things easier?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Organize So Many Function In/out Options?

Feb 12, 2010

I am working on a Color class.allow people to use whatever formats for both input and output they like.Even though the Color class only has one single value ever stored (a hexadecimal RGB value), I allow users to make a color based on any type of input, so my "static constructors" look like this, and take up a lot of room:

Code:
//This isn't really how they look, but a reenactment. ;)
public static function fromRGB(r:uint, g:uint, b:uint):Color
{ return new Color(Color.RGBtoHEX(r, g, b)); }

[code]....

... etc ... etc ... etc ... Is there any logical and organized way of handling so many "in/out" options? Or perhaps some other way I can set up the class? I have been trying to think this through without success, and I need someone else's eyes. Perhaps because it is 3:30AM...

Flash - How Should One Logically Organize Rhythm / Timing

Jan 15, 2012

I'm working on a rhythm-based game set to a specific song in ActionScript, in which a trigger spawns on the right side of the screen and moves left. The player must hit the trigger when it touches the left side of the screen, and I'm trying to figure out the most code-efficient way to spawn triggers in sync with the timing of the song. The only thing that came immediately to mind was an update function tied to the main loop that checks if the song is at a certain second each frame, but that seems unnecessary.

Flex :: Flexbuilder - Organize Application For Compile Performance?

Jun 28, 2010

I'm preparing to reorganize & refactory a Flash Builder application. The goals of the reorg are 1.) keep compile times for the part of the project I'm working on as fast as possible, 2.) keep the unrelated parts separate for code reuse. Goal #1 trumps goal #2 if there's a trade-off.

Currently, the app has assets in one project, core functionality AS3 in another project, and the MXML in a third project that links to the other two.

Would moving resources/code into swc libraries help compile time? What about compiling assets into an swf and embedding that into the main application?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Organize A Menu Of Items Would Be A Dictionary Object Containing All Its Members?

Sep 3, 2011

My project is a visual way to represent a database of information about books. It will be represented as a collection of menus and submenus. From one menu, the user will be able to access another, from the other the third.Each item in a menu has some content, so the menus themselves are not a means to an end (to execute commands), but a goal in themselves. Viewing them, and browsing between them is the essence of the project.

The simplest way to organize a menu of items would be a dictionary object containing all its members.However, it is not really good for a complex set of menus and sub-menus which is a web of information linked between another.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Unexpected Errors, Multiple Helper Classes, Extended Classes?

Jan 9, 2010

The examples I'll use don't do anything - they're classes without ANY members - no variables, methods, anything.

Let's say I extends Sprite and call it MySprite.

I save it in test.core

[code]...

Now I create another custom class called MyWindow that extends MySprite.

I save it in test.windows

[code]...

Then I create another class that extends MyWindows (the example I'll use is a document class - but that doesn't matter - I've tested using an instance too).

[code]...

Notice that I'm not even trying to instantiate the helper classes - just having them there throws the error.

If there is only a single helper class, everything runs fine.

Also note that - as far as I can tell - this only happens when extending one class from another package, then extending that class with more than one helper object.I'm pretty sure there's no namespace bumps or typographical errors, as this is a very pared-down version of the original application.

EDIT: seems the problem exists even without the crossing packages - even extending MySprite in the document class with multiple internal classes generates this error.

Actionscript 3 :: Inside The Library Use Of A Bunch Of Classes/packages - Expose One Of These Classes?

I am creating a library in AS3. Inside the library I make use of a bunch of classes/packages that need not be exposed to the end user of my lib. I want to only expose one of these classes.

I guess my questions are:

1) How are libraries commonly distributed in AS3?

2) Is there a .jar equivalent in AS3 that developers can include, but will only have access/knowledge of the classes I've declared as public?

Scenes - Organize The Timeline And Not Take Up As Many Frames Per Timeline

Dec 5, 2009

how many of you use scenes to get your projects done. I've been switching to a different scene for every new angle (I'm making a flash movie, drawing somewhat 3D perspective, and storyboarding it out like a movie.) I find it makes it easier to organize the timeline, and not take up as many frames per timeline. Are there any downfalls to this method? Because I'm early on in the production, and if there's going to be any problems down the road I'd like to know before I get too involved.
