Flash :: Spawn Enemies From Left And Right Side Of The Screen?
Nov 10, 2011
My character is spawned in the middle of the screen, and i'm not sure how to make zombies spawn from the left and right side of the screen, and moving towards the middle. My goal is to make the zombies spawn automatically, and the character in the middle is able to shoot them down. I've just started working on AS3, but i know that i'll need to make an array to do this, but not sure how to implement this.
Here is my code:
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.utils.Timer;
[code].....

I am making a game where red squares spawn on the right side of the screen. So far the red squares spawn all the way up and down the height of the stage. The problem is that I want the red squares to spawn only in areas randomly below a certain height of the stage
This is the code so far
enemy.x = 470 ;
enemy.y = Math.random() * stage.stageHeight;
This code makes the red squares spawn all the way up and down the height of the stage.

I'm working on a flash website which is published as a 100% x100% with no scale but I want to add a menu wich has to been shown always at the left of the screen. At home I've got a resolution of 1024x768 but on my work 1920 x 1200. In both cases I like to see the menu in left. Because i like to design some sort of paper strips wich are only visible for like a bit. On a mouseover it will be totally visible. Do I need to add some actionscript with a screensize detection and then some code with _y _x and stuff to place it or do I need to change the settings for the html publish? An example for the website at [URL]

can anyone give me any idea on how to make random enemies spawn with this code? The export is evil, for the enemies. I've tried a random function but it just doesn't work. Can anyone take this code and make enemies spawn randomly? Like can anyone actually modify it and the put it in their reply?Also, I don't care whether the enemies come from vertical or horizontal directions. The size of the flash is 550 x 400.[code]

I am having an issue with my project showing up to the left side of the screen when I look at it on the web. how to center the project in the middle of the page. Here is another blunder I am desperate for help with. another project I am working on I screwed up by editing the timeline for EVERYTHING inside the movie clip instead of the timeline. now when I export this to be a mov. file it only plays for like a second. so I fixed that and copy and pasted the timeline from inside the movie to the timeline on my workspace. everything is showing up on the bottom right of the page.

Here is a link to what I mean: [URL]. I am spawing enemies by this right now:
public function newPlane(event:TimerEvent) {
// random side, speed and altitude
if (Math.random() > .5) {
var side:String = "left";
} else {
side = "right";
} var altitude:Number = Math.random() * 300 + 20;
var speed:Number = Math.random() * 50 + 50;
var p:Airplane = new Airplane(side,speed,altitude);
addChild(p);
airplanes.push(p);
setNextPlane();
}

In my game, the character moves trough a map and everytime it hits the end of the map it goes to the next scene in which the map continues.The problem is, the character can come into a scene from two different sides, but I can only let the character appear on one side within the scene.So I was wondering if there is a way to make your character spawn depending on which side he enters the scene?

I'm a bit newbie to Flash, and I'm experiencing strange problem. I have a simple flash application, which when run in Flash player looks like this
the thing is, when i resize the Flash player window, a black frame becomes visible to the left and top of the stage. is it possible that these black areas start appearing on the right side, and the stage to be fixed on the left? The strange thing is that these black areas are not part of the stage, the (0,0) coordinate is there where white area starts and not in the corner of the window, and that's causing me problems.

I'm working on Flex component which can be resized using handles on the right and left (that is, if you click and drag the left side, the component will grow to the left, if you click and drag on the right, it will grow to the right).
Right now I am using:
var oldX:Number = this.x;
this.x = event.stageX + (initial.x - initial.stageX); // Move the left edge to the left
this.width += oldX - this.x; // Increase the width to compensate for the move to the left
But that makes the right side jump around, and generally looks ugly.
What is the "right" to do this? Is there something fundamental I've gotten wrong?
Edit: The jitter occurs on the right side of the component. When I set this.x, the component moves to the left, the screen redraws, then the width is updated, and the screen redraws again.

I'm getting an error: [code]I'm also looking for a simple way to show my 'enemies' on random base on my platform screen. I already made an array with the x and y coordinates but I don't know how to make AS3 print them on a random way on the platform windows.

I've been working on a uni project. Basically, enemies are placed on the screen using a timer variable and using the attachMovie to put them on the screen. This is an example of the code I'm using:
Actionscript Code:
var enemies;var timer;
function onLoad(){
enemies = [];
timer = 0;}
function onEnterFrame(){timer++;
if (timer == 10) {
Timer = 0;
var enemy = _root.attachMovie("mc_1", "mc_1",
_root.getNextHighestDepth());
enemies.push(enemy);
}}
This works and places them on the screen, (and into the array) but by putting them into the array, I thought that each one would be a unique instance of the movieclip which doesn't always seem to be the case. If I shoot one of the enemies, sometimes another enemy will explode (or both of them) and other times I will knock into one enemy and another one will be the one who get's knocked.
For my collision code I'm using this:
Actionscript Code:
for(var i in _root.player.enemies){
if (some arguments..)
_root.player.enemies[i].health -= 10;
}}
The explosion code also uses a similar for loop. Should I look at another method to place unique instances of the enemies on the screen?

I'm making a side-scrolling game, with a (theoretically) infinite background. I have a block engine that places the blocks on the bitmap canvas. Now here's the catch. I'm using the bitmapData.scroll() function. Now unless I clear the screen each time the character moves, it's going to leave ghost images of the border of the screen, like this picture: zanzlanz. tumblr. com/post/18857712784 If I clear the screen each time, then it generates a lot of lag (because it has to repaint the objects again). I'm a bit lost on how I can scroll without leaving streaks of the side of the screen and without repainting the entire screen.

Way with actionscript to determine the right and left side of a movie clip? I have a row of dynamiclly loaded pictures that load into a movieclip and then have arrows that scroll the photos left and right using an interval and _x +=10. The scroll works great. Only problem is, it just goes on and on and on if you keep pressing the arrow. Is there any way to tell it where the left and right side are and not to let either side go past a certain point.

I've got a scrolling image gallery which I have a zoom button that lets the user zoom in on the images... If they click on the stage, the scrolling stops. Now, if they try to zoom in, the image scales from the left side, since the images registration points are on the left side of the movie clip they're loaded into. This causes the images to shift right, but I want it to appear as if its a straight on zoom...

I want to make an interactive image scroller. I am making a webshop and I want a flash to scroll through some of the latest products (3 or 4) that I put in myself and animate or whatever, maybe there's a better and easier way. I want this movie to have these products scrolling from right to left by auto with maybe an ease effect, but when you move your mouse pointer over the whole movie I want it to stop, and when it stops I want two arrows appear on the left and right side of the movie which will be clickable and you will be able to scroll through the products with them as well.
It doesn't need to have an external XML connection where you insert scrolling speed and so on. Of course it would be simplier, but without is fine too. I will try to explain in what terms I know of:
-Mouseout/rollout = 3 or 4 products scrolling one by one from the right and ease in to the middle, pause 4 seconds, then scroll out to the left with an ease. Looped.
-Mouseover/rollover = Movie stops and then you can use arrows on both each side and scroll by yourself. But I don't know if I want this only to be available when the product is in the center of the movie, or else it would be kind of weird if the movie stopped when one product was just about to go half-way out or in.

I rearranged a vertical scrollbar code to get a horizontal scrollbar. The only problem is that now it takes the x coordinate of the last thumbnail (I think) and goes right to left, meaning that the 1st thumbnail will not be at x=0.How can I get it to start with the first thumbnail is at x=0 and go from left to right?
