View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Call Methods Of A Loaded SWF?
Feb 13, 2008I've written a pre-loader for my game, it uses Loader, URIRequest and LoaderInfo to display a bytes left/total counter as the main game SWF loads - this all works fine.
However what then happens is that the main SWF constructor is called, so the game starts running "in the background" while the pre-loader finishes off.
I moved the 'start game' code from the constructor into a different function but I'm now left with the issue of how can I actually tell the main game SWF to start?
You can't do loader.content.go() (where go() is the function I want to call).
How can I access methods of a loaded SWF? Or is there another way? I tried dispatching a custom Event from the pre-loader, but the game SWF just never heard it - but is this the right way to go about things?
I really want to pass some bits of data from the pre-loader into the main game SWF too, but until I can figure out how to make them both talk I'm totally stuck! Is there a way the game SWF could reference any variables set by the preloader?

View 2 RepliesActionscript 3 :: Bad Form For Child Components To Call Methods On Their Parent?
Feb 4, 2010I have a parent class that instantiates a MenuClass and handles transitions between pages.[code]And here's the MenuClass which creates forward and backward buttons. Clicking each will tell the above ParentClass to transitionForward() or transitionBackward() respectively.[code]One one hand, I feel like the MenuClass is too tightly bound to its parent and is thus less reusable. On the other hand I feel like, in the interest of keeping everything self contained, it's not the ParentClass's responsibility to reach into the MenuClass instance and add event listeners there. This seems like there should be some kind of OOP rule-of-thumb to govern this kind of relationship.Is my MenuClass too tightly bound to its parent? And if so, do you have any suggestions that would loosen that coupling?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Using Methods From Another Class
Feb 22, 2011I'm new to AS3. I've got two classes.
damnMoles.as and startBtn.as
The damnMoles class uses a method called randomPlay();
ActionScript Code:
public function randomPlay():void {
this.gotoAndPlay("moleLabel"+randomNumber(1, 18));
}
Which basically allows the looped mole animation to start from various points in its timeline. I could probably use a different method to do this using an interval variable, but I originally coded this in AS2.0 and I want to update it, to see how this are different.
damnMoles class is attached to 6 mrMole# instances on the timeline.
Originally I used code on the main stage timeline to start the animation of the moles.
ActionScript Code:
startBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, startClick);
function startClick(event:MouseEvent):void {
mrMole1.randomPlay();
}
This works fine, however, I would like to refrain from timeline code and use .as files. My startBtn class looks like this, but I get the error:
1120: Access of undefined property mrMole1.
ActionScript Code:
package com{
import flash.display.SimpleButton;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Stage;
[Code] .....
So, how does this work? When I want to use a method from another class that has multiple instances on the stage?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Creating Methods Without A Class?
Jul 22, 2011What if you have methods you want to use in your project, that really have no need of a class, or in other words, there is no need for an "object" associated with it. It's not going to have member variables, so why bother making it a class?
for example,
I want to create a randomNumber method, takes two numbers, low high, returns a random between or equal.
Originally in my code I had a very top level class i just called globalLibrary that extended movie clip, i put my randonNumber method there. Then every class in the project extended that. I got the method scoped properly, but to me it looks like a hack.
For example, the most basic functionality in flash like +, even = , trace, etc. Are these also methods defined in some class that we are extending? Or are they methods that have no object associated since that would seem to make just as much sense.
why can't I just create a file of methods, and import that file and have access to these methods?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Reference To Class Methods?
Mar 16, 2009I need a way to reference to object (or the class methods inside). I have a button "Add box" and when it is pressed it creates a new instance of class "MyBox". The thing is everyone of these objects get the same name "box".Here's a hint of what it's like:
Code:
var arrBoxes:Array = new Array();
// var n:Number = 1;[code]...
Inside of the addBox function I can easily refer to the Object with just "box" (for example box.name = ..)but when in another function I cannot (and by then I might have created many "box"es).
ActionScript 3.0 :: Add New Methods To MovieClip Class?

Then, without instantiating myClass, I want to be able to call that method like this:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing MovieClip Methods From A Class?
Oct 17, 2009Here is the situation:I have created a movieClip named "tp_crack" on the timeline and created its class using linkage called "tp_crack".The tp_crack mc is like a small rectangle which breaks in 3 seconds when it is played.I have a seperate class in which I have used tp_crack to create many instances of tp_crack going by the names: cracked1","cracked2" etc.These instances are present in another movieClip (this time created within the class) called "crackContainer".Now I have added the following code to check for hitTest of those cracked1,2,3...... with a spaceship.The hitTest works but flash does not recognize the pieces as movieClips and does not play them as required, instead it gives me an error saying:1061: Call to a possibly undefined method play through a reference with static type flash.displayisplayObject.
for (var i:uint=0; i<crackedPieces; i++) {
if (crackContainer.getChildAt(i).hitTestPoint(Spacesh ip.x,Spaceship.y+(Spaceship.height/2),true)) {

Flash :: MovieClip Can't See Base Class Methods?
Aug 12, 2010I have this base class
package sevengames.miranda.front.res {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.text.TextField;
[Code].....
I then, in the Flash document, create a movie clip which has this class set as the "Base class" in the properties. However, if I then do this.updateText(); in the movie clip's frame script, it complains
TypeError: Error #1006: updateText is not a function.
at miranda_fla::MenuButton_3/frame1()
Why doesn't it work? I know the class is read and compiled, because I had an error there which was reported.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Add Custom Methods To MovieClip Class?
Dec 13, 2010I want to add a custom method so that any MC can use it like this - Code:text1.fadeIn(2) - which would fade text1 in over 2 seconds. The actual method isn't important, it's the way to add it as a custom method for ALL MCs that is confusing me.I can add it inside the document class (that extends MovieClip) like{/*fade in over tt seconds etc*/};But pretty much everywhere I look peoples are choking on their coffee shouting not to use that method. So is there a nice, clean way to do it without using prototype?BTW I want to add these methods in a class that is imported into the main document class at compile-time. So my main doc class has code specific to this SWF but the general external classes like Effects and Transitions are imported as needed.

May 30, 2005I've got a custom class (using AS2) that mostly does things like set the score and level of a game, as well as sets the player's lives on the screen. I need to unload and attach MovieClips within the Lives control function, which require those methods from the MovieClip class. I don't think I need to extend this class from the MovieClip class, I think I need to import the class somehow. I don't know the path though..something like mx.MovieClip.
