Actionscript 3 :: Pass MovieClip To Super - Rotate The Turret
Oct 11, 2011
I have a Spaceship movieclip, with a movieclip Turret inside. Spaceship extends the Unit class, where I want to rotate the Turret. In my Spaceship constructor, I use super(this.turret); but this always returns null. Passing other variables works, and before calling super(), I can successfully trace this.turret So why can't I pass it to super? And how can I fix this? [edit] Perhaps it has something to do with the turret not being available/added to stage yet when super() is called? If so, how could I deal with that and get it "Unit" anyways?

Is it possible to call a method in the super class of a super class? I tried the above and it doesn't work, unsurprisingly. Only way I've been able to do it is to store a reference to a super.someMethod in the super Class (eg. var superMethod: Function = super.someMethod) and call that instead. Seems reasonable and it works but wonder if there is an in-built method for doing this?

I am trying to extend the new AutoComplete component from Adobe. In two different places I need to bypass the AutoComplete methods and get right at the ComboBox methods.
I was told that super.super.someMethod() works just like it does in Java. But I keep getting Compiler errors:1084: Syntax error: expecting identifier before super.Any suggestions other than just cutting and pasting the code and extending the AutoComplete superClass?

I'm trying to make a turret that points towards the cursor, but lags when the cursor is moved. I can get this to work, however I am running into problems when the cursor crosses from quadrant 4 to 3 (and vice versa). The problem is that the function I am using to control the turret's rotation rotates the turret around the opposite direction almost 360 degrees to get to the new position, instead of moving the few degrees it needs to.

i am trying to make a "double-barrel" firing cannon in AS3..below is a crappy drawing of what im trying to acheive...im having trouble making the two bullets come out where they should (1 on the left barrel, 1 on the right barrel). prior to this, i already successfully created a standard "one-barrel" turret that rotates depending on the mouse location and fires 1 bullet per shot.. what i'm trying to do now is (like i said above) to create a double-barrel turret that would fire 2 bullets per shot (1 on the gun1 and 1 on gun2)..below is the code i used for the single-barrel turret: on the timeline:
ActionScript Code:
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, followMouse);
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, fireBullet);
var radians:Number;

What i'm trying to do is to make my movie clip (plane_mc) to rotate when it collides with another movie clip (cloud_mc). At the moment my plane is controlled by the arrow keys on the keyboard, it is flying through a sky with clouds and when it touches a cloud, i want it to rotate.

I know there's all these posts on how to use For... loops to hittest, but no matter how hard I try, they just don't work. So, after hours of hair tearing, paceing and starting a new game I've decided to bother you all for help.
My situation is that in the game I'm making, I have a movable turret firing duplicated bullets. I need to hittest them against a duplicated set of oncoming robots. I've tried using a for loop, but I just can't get it to work.
I've attached the .FLA, and I would be grateful if anyone could point out what I'm doing wrong (ignore the values for removing the clips and the random duplication; I had to shrink the stage size to make the file size smaller

i recently learned how to program a tank-type game.. i was able to make the turret follow the mouse and fire bullets that would move to the direction the turret was pointed at..what i'm trying to do now though is make the bullet follow an object moving on stage.. sort of like a heat-seeking missile..

I made a game in AS2 where the player rotates towards the mouse, then discovered you need AS3 for 3D things(which I plan to add later) so I re-made the game in AS3. I think I can more or less do the rest of it but the rotation is driving me crazy. This code works fine in AS2 but when I try it in AS3 it completely fails. The player just wobbles about a 90 degree radius.

How or where I could find the code to rotate an image or a movie clip just using code. I use MCtween to move them on the X and Y but I don't know how or even if you can rotate with that add on. I don't need it to be a smooth animation I just need it to turn on its side when a btn is clicked.

url...Now click at "add image" and load any image.. The image will be shown on the shirt and the blue border shown around the image comes by-default or is it a movieclip? Secondly the image itself is a movieclip or external swf? And i know that movieclip has rotate and scaleX,Y properties that can work here but it seems that these properties are not used?? the script is rotating and stretching it due to container default properties.

I have 2 movieclips (btn_rotate, btn_scale) that are attached to a movieclip (view_mc) that holds an image.
These 2 movieclips are used to rotate and scale the Other movieclip as in the attached picture
I want when the user click and dragg the btn_rotate, btn_scale, the view_mc will be rotated and scaled respectively, in smooth way.
But I can't achieve that.
Here is my code which is wrong:
ActionScript Code:
btn_rotate.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, on_btn_rotate_down);
btn_rotate.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, on_btn_rotate_up);
function on_btn_rotate_down(e:MouseEvent):void

I'm lost and new to AS3. How to get this code to ease into end point compared to its sudden stop.
CODE:
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, mcRotation);
var rotateSpeed:Number = 0.003
var oldvalue:Number = 0;
function mcRotation(event:Event):void{
var controller:Number = (stage.mouseX - stage.stageWidth * 0.5) * -1;
var rotY:Number = box_mc.rotationY - (controller * rotateSpeed);
rotY = Math.max(rotY, -90);
rotY = Math.min(rotY, 0);
box_mc.rotationY = rotY;
oldvalue = box_mc.rotationY;

I'm trying to drag & rotate a planet so it spins around with the mouse -instance name: PlayerThe code works really well but it doesn't seem to rotate around the centre, instead it rotates from the top left corner.I'm quite a noob at as3 so I'm not quite sure where I've gone wrong with my code to be able to fix this. Do I need to specify the dimensions of the stage or the planet? I have altered the Stage from the the default 550 x 400 (if this could be the problem).
ActionScript Code:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.events.Event;
