Nov 18, 2011I am currently looking at a way of visualising data and a part of the algorithm needs something 99% the same as A* Path Finding but I cannot wrap my head round it fully. I know it will be a fairly simple modification. (specific cost instead of least cost)
Basically I need to plot a path (2D Grid, no Diagonals) from point A to point B in X number of steps.
E.g. If the start and end points were right next to each other and I needed the path to be 3 steps it would have a tiny loop. (moves: up, right, down). Is there a known name for this algorithm or is the use of this so rare it's uncommon? I am currently looking at this AS3 Librbay for modification as it is apparently very fast and seems clean and simple to me:[URL]..
ActionScript 2.0 :: Find The Closest Value In An Array?
Dec 20, 2007So if the value of myVar = 50;..and the array holds the values 25, 100, 150, etc.I want to write a function that will be able to find the array element that's closest to myVar, which would be the first element in the array (myArray[0]), since 25 would be the closest value to 50.

Actionscript 3 :: Point Closest To Combined Geometric Shapes (compound Shape)?
Feb 20, 2012I have a single point and a set of shapes. I need to know if the point is contained within the compound shape of those shapes. That is, where all of the shapes intersect.But that is the easy part.If the point is outside the compound shape I need to find the position within that compound shape that is closest to the point.These shapes can be of the type:squarecirclering (circle with another circle cut out of the center)inverse circle (basically just the circular hole and a never ending fill outside that hole, or to the end of the canvas is there must be a limit to its size)part of circle (as in a pie chart)part of ring (as above but lineThe example below has an inverted circle (the biggest circle with grey surrounding it), a ring (topleft) a square and a line.
If we don't consider the line, then the orange part is the shape to constrain to. If the line is taken into account then the saturated orange part of the line is the shape to constrain to.The black small dots represent the points that need to be constrained. The blue dots represent the desired result. (a 1, b 2 etc.)Point "f" has no corresponding constrained result, since it is already in the orange area.For the purpose of this example, only point "e" is constrained to the line, all others are constrained to the orange orange area.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Path Of Trajectory Based On Point?
Sep 12, 2009this is a piece of my code
PHP Code:
dirx1 = (Math.cos((-70)*Math.PI/180)*80);
diry1 = Math.sin((-70)*Math.PI/180)*80;
}
fire1.onEnterFrame = function() {
[code]...
it throws a movieclip at a degree of -70 and a power of 80, while applying gravity of 2 to the diry var anyway... i want to, instead of making the trajectory based on power and angle, make it based on a point on the screen (mouse click) so the bullet will end up at that point when i click that point, ive seen this in bowmaster or bowmaster 2 so i know it works for as2.
Professional :: Cs4 Parameters Can't Find Path For Xml File
Feb 3, 2010I am trying to build a .xml image scroller using the scroll pane component in CS4.I choose Actionscript3. Drag the component to the stage. Give it an instance name.Then I look for the Parameters that used to be in the properties panel in CS3. Not there anymore.I find that the Components Inspector has Parameters in there now.OK.I need to use ContentPath to tell the component where the .xml file is so it can find the images for the scroller.Can't find 'ContentPath'.How can I point the component to a .xml file?Is there a way of getting Parameters back in with properties - it was so much easier.

View 3 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Find Most Left And Top Right Point In A Sprite?
Aug 8, 2009I once needed to pan a sprite full of movieClips (picture 1) which were draggable with no bounds so you could drag them up and left (higher than sprites registration point).
You could also drag them down and right and expand a sprite that way (as well) but that didnt matter.What did matter was how much is 'up' and 'left' from the sprite registration point so i can include that in my formula for panning.
This was easy to find, i just sorted my array of movieClips, sorted on x and sorted on y after each drag, and thats how i got my up and left points.
Now I am trying to do that same thing, exept my movieclips inside a sprite have a custom rotation (picture 2), so i also have an up and left point, except this time up and left are caused by rotations of movieClips inside a sprite... (and these are dragable as well with no bounds)
ActionScript 3.0 :: Find X Position Of A Point On A Line?
Aug 22, 2009To make this easy, lets say I have a movie clip with a diagonal line in it (top left to bottom right).
I want to start my y position at 0, and place it in a loop and increase y by 5 every time. So we start at the top left of the clip, and move to the bottom of the clip.
Now since we have our y value (0, 5, 10, etc.) would you get the x position of the line? such as (x, y):
5, 10
or
42, 15

View 5 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Find Highest Point Of A Group Of Boxes?
Mar 31, 2009I have a number of boxes on screen - each box is a rectangular movieclip, and they fall to the bottom of the screen where they pile up to make a stack of boxes. I'm using box2d for the physics. Oh, and each box may be rotated. I need to find the highest point - ie the smallest y value, of the stack of boxes.
Obviously I can find the position of the highest box's registration point easily (which is the centre of each box) - but that may not be the highest point of the pile of boxes. The highest point may not even be the highest box - it could be a lower box that is rotated on end, for example.
Flash :: Find Number Of Touches At A Point In Time?

do i need to handle this on my own ? for eg: in the TOUCH_BEGIN event handler i could see how many different unique touchPointID i have received and update the count myself.
