Actionscript 3 :: Lots Of Movie Clips Make Flash Lags?
Jul 20, 2011
i created a game that has 96 still movieclips and seven more movieclips that basically move horizontally. The lag starts to rise if i add more and more moving movieclips. The game loop just basically, increment the x coordinate of the movieclips, so i don't think i have problems in the game loop.Is it normal the flash will lag once it has exceeded certain number of movieclips??if it's normal, what do you suggest to increase the game's performance?anyway, this is the update method from the game loop:
public function update():void
{
//cek kondisi untuk melakukan spawn char

I currently made a flash animation. the background is the only one that is animated and scrolls to the right. But my problem is why it lags? Is there any way to not make it lag? here's a link of the swf file you can view: http:[url]......I tried it on a high spec pc and it does not lag when it is in normal screen(640x480) but when I view it in full screen it lags. There are no scripts or anything in this file just animation.

I'm making a shooting game but there won't be much of a challenge without enemies that point and shoot. Is there an easy way to make them do that?

I am working on a flash desktop application which requires me to have the flash to appear as full screen when run on the computer. I compiled my flash into executable(.exe) file with mdm zinc but I realise that the flash animation is lagging a lot when it is shown in full screen. I then try to display the frame rate on the movie and the movie is actually running at 10fps when full screen and animating. It returns to about 20-25fps when it is not having any movieclips animating while remaining full screen. It is running all well at 30fps when opened with flash player.

I am trying to make an interactive flash application that works by detecting mouse overs and clicks on various buttons/movie clips and then moves to the appropriate part of the time line. But I am having an issue when I use more than one addEventListener in any one frame. I have attached the code for one such frame below. When I comment out the addEventListner and the other code relating to the followBall function this works fine and directs the user to frame Inlet_Valve_Open_Frame but now only the followBall function is working and when i try to click on the Inlet_Valve_Button movie clip nothing happens.
I have never read all the help files on the adobe flash CS3 as i don't have time and i have built this code up based on examples i have found online. I wanted to include my fla file but it's to big 6Mb. But i have attached the swf so you have an idea what i am doing.
Code: Select allstop();
//1.
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE,followBall);

I've managed to get a sensor attached to an arduino talking to flash using something called AS3glue. it works, when i set up a trace("leaf") for the contition that the sensor reads 0, i get a printout of the word "leaf". however i want the program to make a graphic appear on the screen when this condition is met, not just trace something.
I'm trying to get the program to generate a library object called "Enemy" on the screen at a random position each time the conditions are met. It's called enemy because I was following a game tutorial...actually it's a drawing of a leaf. Here's the bit of the code which is causing me problems:

I was taught to make a fading "slide show" in Flash CS3 using movie clips, key frames, and alpha channels. Is there a simpler way? I have a project with over 40 "slides." I am aware of some web sites like slide.com but they seem to include ads which I don't want on a professional site. Any suggestions on how to create a slide show like this one more quickly than with tweening movie clips? (I do have CS4 now.)[URL]

I have made this little flash game that is almost done, There is just one thing that I need to know.Is it possible to make a movieClip stick to another Movieclip in some easy way?You see there is this tower in the game, that shoots arrows at an enemie.Now I want that arrow to stay on the enemie that is moving along the axis until it dies, where the arrow should just drop and dissapear after a while.I have tried alot of different things to get this to work, But with no success.the enemies and arrows are saved in two separate arrays, and the arrow have a random rotation.

I have a project and i have an issue with an idea i have. The index of the website is in html with a simple link to enter the main menu page in flash. But in the main menu i have a movie clip of a man in the center. In fact, i have 3 different images of men that i want to make appear, in a shuffle way, instead of 1. So when people visit the website, the main menu page could present 1 of the 3 pictures i chose in a random way. So a kind of shuffle every time someone log into the main menu page. So do you know what kind of code i could write to make it work ? It could be in the index page (html) or in the flash page itself ?

I'm trying to make a matrix of movie clips. To do this, I have two while statements, one inside the other. The interior is for the number of columns and the exterior is for the number of rows. The movieclip that I want in every entry of the matrix is called 'entryspace'. What ends up happening is that only the last row shows up at the bottom. There must be an error in the following but I can't find it. I've also attached the entire file.
on (release) {
i = 0;
xspot = 500;
yspot = 90;

I'm making a jigsaw puzzle in flash and there's something I just can't figure out. I want it so that if you pick up a piece, drop it next to another piece, and the two pieces are supposed to go together, the two pieces will snap together so that if you move one piece the other will move with it. I've seen some games where they somehow get movie clips to stick together when they come into contact with each other, but I haven't been able to figure out how they did it.

I have set up a single, one-page resume/portfolio website, but I'm having difficulty finding a way to get the 2 individual movie clips to play individually - not at the same time.Everything is set up on a time line. Each movie clip has it's own layer with it's own button via Code Snippets as follows:
CArrow1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_15);
function fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_15(event:MouseEvent):void

I have this page that has 8 movie clips, and I want to make these movie clips function as buttons. I got that part done already, but what I need now is the Rollover part. I made one separate animated movie clip that'll function as the rollover, so whenever a button is rollovered the animated movieclip will play on top of that button. So my question is how do you designate the one animated rollover movieclip to play on top of each separate button when they are rollovered on? Hope it's not too confusing to understand.

I'm trying to make a short clip = a website introduction - where feathers fall from above the stage eventually covering it completely. I've created movie clip with the animation (motion via motion tweens) - and what I'd like is for multiple instances of the Movie Clip to appear above the stage, then the Movie Clip to play, hence feathers falling randomly.I'd also like to put a time delay on the appearing of each new instance (ideally random) so that when the movie clip plays the falling feathers aren't perfectly synchronised (which they would be were all the instances to appear at the same time).I've tried playing with the scripts suggested in this thread with limited success: showthread.php3?t=259911(Also, I'd ideally like to change the tint on each movie clip (to a limited set of colours) instance to vary the colour of the feathers, but that's maybe a complication too far for the moment!

I am trying to make some buttons that play different parts of multiple movie clips- and also link to a url. I also want to be able to click on a movie clip and make it play starting from a certain point (this is what I have been working on) I have this code
stop();
_root.frogdance.stop();
froggy.onRelease = function() {
_root.frogdance.play(4);
}
it is on an actions layer of my main timline- I am not sure if I put it in the wrong place or what- but it doesn't do ANYTHING when I click on it when testing the movie. I gave the frogdance movie clip the instance name 'froggy' in the properties panel. The rest of what I am working with will be buttons that do things- but I also want this movie clip thing to work...

I'm trying to make duplicated movie clips scroll down the screen (asteroids) for an experimental game but I just can't get it working. :-
I'm using this to duplicate the movieclip:
i=i+1;
duplicateMovieClip ("m0", "m", i);
and trying to get the movieclips to scroll down with this:
p=eval("m" add i);
p._y+=2;
make renamed duplications scroll down the screen?

I'd like to control a movie clips current frame by another movie clips action script.I realise the following controls the outside (root) frame time line:
on(release){
_root.gotoAndStop(1);
}
but I'm not sure how to apply that to my other movie clip. I'm guessing it would be something like this:
on(release){
_*movie_clip_name*.gotoAndStop(1);
}

i have a bunch of movie clips and in order to make them rotate the way i want i have grouped them together, made the entire group into a movie clip and applied the motion tween. I'm trying to code it so that when i mouse over the movie clips WITHIN the group movie clip, something happens. How would i go about it? All i can work out is how to make the entire group react on mouse over, not the individual movie clips themselves.

I have 6 scenes, the first scene has 5 pictures that i converted to buttons. each button goes to a different scene to play the appropriate movie clip. right now it shows up with scene 1, then i click on the button and it goes to the appropriate movie clip but after it finishes playing it just goes to the next clip on the next scene, then after it is finished it goes to the next clip on the next scene and so on. i would like to know is there some way i can make the movie clips return to scene 1 after they finish playing?

I have seven loops in total. I imported them into the library. i've put each of them in a seperate movie clip with the names loop1,loop2,.In those movie clips, the first (key)frame contains the action stop(); . The second frame is a keyframe too and from here on the sound starts. And of course they loop.Okay, now the buttons to control the movie (Prev, Stop, Play, Next) work fine, but let me explain the system i used. I used a var loopnumber and everytime you click Next or Prev, it '+'es 1 or '-'es 1. I also set a variable number_to_play = "_root.loop"+loopnumber, so you would get _root.loop--number--, where --number-- is 1,2,3,4,5,6 or 7. To actually play the sound, i used tellTarget(number_to_play) {gotoAndPlay(2)}.That's why i added stop(); to the first frame of those clips.how can i make a volume slider for those sounds inside my movie clips ? I've checked this forum already for questions like this but they don't use the system I use.

I have typical situation where big loop is loading lots of images and its done asynchronous which make browser to frees during loading and I want to make it synchronous but having big trouble doing it. I found this class synchronous loader and it work great but you cant add mouse event listener to loader. Here is sample code:

As most of you don't know, I've been creating an rpg game. And, after several tries of art making, etc, I have finally moved back into coding the game. And now, I'm stuck on the equipment system idea. At first, I thought I would just place a bunch of goToAndStop's for each movie clip to go to a frame that has that certain armor piece. This was my first idea for an equipment system. However, after doing some research, and realizing how much lines of code could be saved, I started looking into simply adding and removing movie clips from the character as my new equipment system idea. Now.... on to the problem.
Basic want/ overall achievement wanted: Create an equipment system, which will basically attach movie clips (items) onto characters, which themselves will already be attached movie clips on the stage.
Problem: What is the exact code to do this? And Is there a better way to do this for an equipment system (a less laggy or more efficient way perhaps that I'm not seeing; Check the code below to get a better idea of what I'm talking about)?
Part of the code (or basic idea of code; see comments for extra details
code:
//Don't worry I have an OnEnterFrame function here;
//attachedObj= the character; figure= the MC name of the character;
attachedObj = attachMovie("figure", "figure"+1, 1);

I have multiple movie clips on stage (all in separate layers, of course) as well as buttons on stage to play each movie clip. There are buttons inside each movie clip. The problem is that the buttons inside the top layered movie clip work, but the others in the movie clips below don't.

I'm looking to make a slider bar reveal movie clips on my stage as you drag it along. I've written some sloppy code that works, but isn't smooth by any means. I basically put MCs on different frames on the timeline, and I want those MCs to fade in or out relative to where the pointer is on the bar. This was a workaround, what I think I need is a boolean solution, but I'm not familiar enough with AS to write one from scratch. Here is the code I have so far. Does anyone have any ideas?
