I'm getting a millisec timestamp in ActionScript as a Number object which can return a primitive double. I'd like to cast it for a backend that expects a primitive long long millisec, however the language does not provide long long. Am thinking a double can be converted to two ints and submitted together. Any encounter something like this and have a solution?

View 1 RepliesSo, I'm writing an AS3 program that tiles floor tiles. I want the user to be to be able to create their own floor schematic represented by different rectangles. It'll be drag-and-drop. They will lay out their schematic (which is composed of different size rectangular tiles) and drop colors/patterns onto them.
This schematic will then be tiled on a 3D plane to represent what the actual floor would look like.
I've got the 3D part working, drag-and-drop working, etc. What I'm missing is the floor schematic stuff. I've spent a lot of time trying to figure out the best solution, but I can't QUITE get there.
Here are some examples (out of a WHOLE bunch of possible combinations) of how the floor schematics could look:
The different tiles within the schematic are the droppable regions. My problem: How can represent these schematics in XML? Don't worry about tiling, sizing, etc. I've got that all figured out already. I just literally do not know how I can represent a tile schematic in XML and draw it correctly with AS3.
I have 4 Sliders that I want to represent 100% of a total Number; Say the number is 100 and you start all the sliders off at 25. Each Slider has a Min of 0 and a Max of 100, to represent 0 to 100 percent of the Total number.So if one slider is all the way to 100% the rest of the 3 are at 0%;
Example: All Sliders are set to 25, and you slide the top slider to the right (increasing) say to 40%; The Sliders should say 40%, 20%,20%, and 20% since it would decrease the rest of the sliders accordingly, so they all add up to 100%;.
im new to flash - actionscript 3.0. I have created a text and i am able to set a string by doing txt.text = "something". My problem is, i want to display an integer instead of a string, how is this possible?
View 3 RepliesI've stumbled upon a strange thing in Flex. I created an integer variable:
var foo:int = 1;
And in the debugger it says foo is a Number with a value of 1.It wasn't a biggie for me but seems Numbers are being sent instead of integers when doing remote service calls. What's happening here?
I've been busting my head forever on this... I'm trying to load variables from an external txt file in the same folder as my SWF file to be used as normal variables in _root and not in Text Fields, every method or Tutorial I found and tried with both LoadVars() and LoadVariables() only works with loading into Dynamic Text Feilds but there is no way I can copy those values into normal variables to be used for other purposes like integers and normal strings...
I've read over a dozen tutorials and tried more than 30 different lines of code but there seems to be no way to get the values into normal variables, the list of things I've tried is way too long to mention, so I'll just ask, anyone here know how to load values into normal variables and perhaps an Array? my text file is called "Strings.txt" but again I do not want to load those strings directly to a text Field I want them to be used in a different area...
Code:
var result:Number = int(driven.text) / int(mpg.text);
result1.text = String(result);
var result:Number = int(driven.text) / int(mpg.text + 3);
[Code].....
for some reason it doesnt work properly...the correct equation should work like this:
12000 (milesdriven) / 20(mpg) = 600
12000 (milesdriven) / 23(mpg + 3) = 521
600 - 521 = 79(gal.)
79 x $2.75 = $217.25
what im having problems with and what i need to function is that the MPG input has a +3 to any number inputted (i.e. 20 becomes 23)
I'm loading an XML file into flash, one of the fields is an ID of them item in the database the XML file was made from.I can load everything fine and have put all the data into a multi-dimensional array, but for some reason the ID is a string. I've tried using Number(myID), to covert it to an integer but nothing seems to work.So how can I load an Integer into Flash using XML and have Flash recognise it as an Integer?
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to make a question game with 30 question divided into 3 dificulties, so i'm using arrays to have my questions randomized but not repetitive.
I made the code use the first parameter of the array (array[0]) then remove it from the array.
So, my array will have no more elements after a time. But, when my array have only 1 element, i cant play this element, and i need to use the representation of the empty array to get it to play.
I'm new on AS3, so this may seem very confusing. Here is the code I used.[code]...
i want to choose one of these randomly, I have a loop way in which there is a loop searching for the index number which is inside an array like M1[1]=1 , M2[1]=2 and if I have a random number between 1 and 20 I can loop the arrays [1] element.
But is there another way with directly get the random array buy name. For example I have the random number 14 which directs me to M14. how Name of the array help me to choose M14 when I have the number 14....
I'm getting Error #1009 when subtracting two integers inside a class function.This code throws Error #1009:

I heard that dynamic Object() properties, when looped through via a "for in" do not preserve their original order they were added to the Object.However if I use integers as object properties like this:

View 1 Repliesi have an some movie clip objects, named A,B,C,D,E respectively. Also, asssumed i have 3 arrrays, globally defined with
Array1={'A','B'};
Array2{"B","C"};
Array3={"C","D",E","B"};
Finally, i have some buttons there, both will be used to trigger the movie clip to change it's alpa value. Now here is the problem, when i click on button1, it will search in Array1, and those elements match the object name will be triggered.For example, i click on button1, and it search Array1, which contains elements A, B. With these elements, it only match movie clip object named A and B only.
So as a result, only these two objects are triggered.
Can you let me know what is the concept to run this? The requirement must use the elements in an array to trigger an object. For more information, i actually need this concept to create a Search Algorithm, such as breath first search and depth first search method. So after it find a solution path from A to B and C, which these similar to array1={"A","B","C"}, so only the node A, B and C will be highlighted, and a line from A to B and B to C is drawn to visually show the path.

i would like to basically represent a group of cells multiplying and dyeing. I have some data im pulling in, from an xml file and would like this to generate some cells. I have figures that change frequenly, so for example, if the figure increases i would like the cell to multiply and if the figure decreases i would like cells to die off.
If any one point me in the direction of some examples or give me some ideas about the best way to do this i would really appreciate it.
As you can see im not sure if i should be looking at flocking or recursion etc so

View 3 RepliesI'm making a game and I need to represent a "layered" circle in some clever datastructure.A circle can have any number of layers. Each layer has a number of "slices", they can be of different lengths and pieces can be missing. The innermost layer is always a full circle.Each segment has a color, multiple segments with the same color can be next to each other. Realistically a circle wont have more than about 40 layers or about 1500 individual slices.I will need to be able to easily find adjacent pieces to a specific piece, see if a piece is "hanging in free air" (imagine gravity towards the center), and to remove pieces leaving a hole in their place.

View 1 RepliesOk perhaps ive bitten off too much here...I know you are not supposed to parse xml/html to regex but the thing is there just arent many other options.Im using AS3.im parsing the source of textflowlayout text to a different format.
string to parse :
< fontFamily=Verdana encoding=unicode fontWeight="bold"> some text < fontFamily=Verdana encoding=unicode > some text < fontFamily=Arial encoding=unicode fontStyle="italic"> some text < fontFamily=Arial encoding=unicode fontWeight="bold" fontStyle="italic"> some text
what i really need is:
< fontname=Verdanabold encoding=unicode> some text < fontname=Verdana encoding=unicode > some text < fontname=Arialitalic encoding=unicode > some text < fontname=Arialbolditalic encoding=unicode > some text
logically i think of it as taking apart the string into substrings
checking if there are fontWeight or fontStyle in the substring
if there is then appending the font name with the weight or style so so that the font name becomes font NameWeightStyle.then rebuilding the string.The font could be any font with variouse styles or weights..so far:
pattern = /<(.*?)>/gixsm;
var matches:Object = pattern.exec(str);
var finalstring:String = "";[code]...........
