Flash :: Transparent Parts Of Sprite Responding To Mouse Events
Jul 17, 2010I'm making a puzzle game in Flash cs5/as3 which can have custom puzzle shapes. Basically, the user can draw basic protrusions of a puzzle. Then I create a black and white puzzle piece with a custom function like this var piece:PuzzlePiece= new PuzzlePiece(true,true,false,false); PuzzlePiece is a class that extends Sprite. The four arguments correspond to the four sides of a puzzle piece (up, down, left, right). If the argument is true, it means that protrusion should stick out of that side of puzzle piece. If it's false, it should have a hole on that side, so it fits the protrusion. I first attach the protrusions that stick out, then i flip the protrusions that stick in, attach them to a new sprite (in_part) and invert them with the following function:

ActionScript 3.0 :: Use A Timer In Differents Parts Of A Movie?
Oct 21, 2010I am trying to use a timer in differents parts of a movie, but I want each part to play a different amount of millisecounds, but even though I change the var millis, it still times for the same amount as the timer on the first timeline. DO I need to make a new timer, and how would I do it. Some else gave me the script for the timer I am using.
[Code]...
This is what I am using for the other frames because if Flash wont allow me to use the same script more than once. I use this for the second scene, but when I try to change it, there is no change it still follows the parameters f the timer in the first scene.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Removing And Adding Parts Of A Name?
Feb 23, 2011I have a bunch of movieclips called firstNameBtn_mc, lastNameBtn_mc and many others. I also have a bunch of movieclips whose names start with the same but instead of "Btn" they have "Arrow", like firstNameArrow_mc, lastNameArrow_mc etc.
What I want is when I click on firstNameBtn_mc it does somthing to firstNameArrow_mc, but there are so many buttons I would like to do it in the following way.
1. get the movie clip's name...something with e.currentTarget.name for example
2. remove the Btn_mc part
3. add the Arrow_mc part
4. do something to the movieclip of that name

The context of this problem is the following:I have a custom skinnable component class which needs to update some of its parts (e.g. change some labels) once it has been created, meaning once all the skin parts have been instantiated and added.
View 1 RepliesFlash - Adding Time To Timer / Counter
Nov 28, 2011I've looked all over the web and everyone can teach you how to make a timer for your game or a countdown, but I can't seem to find out how to add time to an already counting timer. So here is my counter class:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Stage;
import flash.text.TextField;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.utils.Timer;

That works without any issues or problems and just keeps counting upwards at a speed of 100ms, what I want to know is how to add say 30 seconds if something happens in my game, say you kill an enemy for example.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Snake AI - Getting The Artificial Intelligence To Work Right
Jan 4, 2010I have been working on something along the lines of a computer controlled version of snake.. and i have gotten most of it done, but i am having so many issues getting the artificial intelligence to work right. so far, i have it set up so that the head of the snake constantly moves toward the dots it is trying to pick up.
And i also have it set up so that every frame it checks to see if there is another block in its path. the problem is, once it knows there is something in the way, it cant seem to figure out how to get around it. in other words, i dont know what to tell it to do once it notices it is about to die.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Ribbons Or Snake Effect Class
Feb 22, 2010I'm working on writing a class that kind of creates a ribbon/snake effect. The class itself just needs to draw a box when initiated. I'm having trouble with some of the math though. I'm going to be passing in information into the initialized class, angle, speed, width, etc. When the instance is greated, the first two points are going to be the last two points of the box. Then I need to place a line at the angle passed in, and draw two more lines to that.

Oct 16, 2009I finally added a timer into my XML AS3 gallery, but when the timer starts the images dislocate..
What is the problem here? I manually set the width and height in the XML with difficulty... (Because I couldn't find a way to automatically set the image to the horizontal and vertical center..)
But why does the position changes when the timer starts to play (every 10 secs)?
This is wat it looks like when the timer hasn't started yet (or when I browse through the images with the arrow buttons):

ActionScript 3.0 :: Adding Timer To Recursive Function?
Nov 16, 2010I made an app (Towers of Hanoi) and i added a "demo" button that solves the problem based on a recursive function. The button is supposed to make a move one step at the time, i mean one step at every few seconds so you can actually see how the algorithm works. The problem is i haven't really used the timer event before and i have no idea how to implement it in this particular scenario.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Timer Animation - Adding And Removing Children
Aug 24, 2011I am working on a game and want to reward the player with an animation at the end of a level. I have created a time and added the animation to the stage but I cannot figure out how to remove the animation once the timer has completed.
Code: Select all/* Simple Timer
Displays a countdown timer in the Output panel until 30 seconds elapse. This code is a good place to start for creating timers for your own purposes.
Instructions:
1. To change the number of seconds in the timer, change the value 30 in the first line below to the number of seconds you want.
var celebration:Celebration;
var fl_TimerInstance:Timer = new Timer(1000,30);
fl_TimerInstance.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, fl_TimerHandler);
fl_TimerInstance.removeEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, removeTimer);
fl_TimerInstance.start();

ActionScript 3.0 :: Rotator Timer - Adding Buttons For User To Control Item
Aug 24, 2009I have a news rotator that is populated from an RSS feed. The rotator has a timer that cycles through the news items, displaying a link and image and title for each item. I have the put in three buttons for the user to control the item that is displaying. A pause, forward and backward button.
My issue is that I'm not sure how to implement the button without messing up my timer that is already running. I was able to do the Pause button, which was simply to stop the timer. The forward and backward buttons are a bit more tricky. This is what I have so far. Note that I have much of the code duplicated because I needed to initialize the objects for the first timer index. After the first item, the code runs from the timerHandler() function.
PHP Code:
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var xmlData:XML = new XML();
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;

Flash - Timer Object With TimerEvent.TIMER Event Globally Accessible To All Objects?
Feb 16, 2012I am working on a very simple game in Flash. I want to make all the animations framerate agnostic, so that I can change the framerate without affecting the flow and speed of the game.I read somewhere that if you want to do that, you simply create a Timer object and attach an event listener to this timer.
What if I have many objects that have to listen to the same timer? See the code to understand what I am trying to do. At this stage nothing breaks, but the event does not fire.Here is the Main class, the one that runs on swf execution:
public class Main extends MovieClip {
private static var _stage:Stage;
private static var _timer:Timer;
