I am editing a flash game,I want that whenever user press the submit button,his score should be saved in the database at my Server.How i can achieve this task?I had got the variable in which score is stored.I can i send this to my database.
View 1 RepliesI've decide racing car game! and I want to be able to send the score to send to a mail box or send it to a table in php or database! at the moment I can send the Score Variable to be display in PHP but its not the way that I want!
Script that send the Score to php
submit.onPress = function () {
getURL ("getVars.php", "_blank", "POST");

I'm keeping score in a game. I have a text field with an instance name "finalScore". The score is a Number.
Code:
trace ("score = "+score);
finalScore.text = String(score);
trace ("finalScore = "+finalScore);
The output looks like this:
score = 10
finalScore = [object TextField]
The text field comes up with "1" not 10.
I am trying to get a high score table set up and I have it all working except for an if statement which decides whether to put a zero in the time or not.
ActionScript Code:
variable declared at the top
var gap:String;
This is getting data that is stored - it works fine except for the underlined "gap" - The "gap" is meant to be calling the variable which has the below if statement
ScoreInputScore.text=String(SpotTheDifferenceGame._minute)+gap+String(SpotTheDifferenceGame._second);
if (SpotTheDifferenceGame._second<10) {
gap=(":0");
} else {
gap=(":");
}
I thought by have the variable called in in the function and having the if statement with gap= it would do the specified text in the dynamic text box. When I put a trace on "gap" it traces with the correct text depending on what the number is but in my dynamic text box it displays as number null number.
// displays like this when trace put on it
:0
// displays like this in dynamic text box

Im designing my own game in flash, iv set up a score text box and it works fine. Except i just cant seem to get it to gotoandplay another frame,scene, when it hits a certain score??
View 4 Repliesi am building a shooting game and i was wondering if it is possible to have the movie go to frame 3 if the score = 500.I.E Score is displayed in a dynamic text box and everytime the enemy is hit the:
_root.score +=50
=============
on the first frame of the film i have the code
if (_root.score == 500) {
gotoAndPlay(3);
}
I have a result screen that shows bonus points and such. I want each text field to increment one after another and also have it increment by a certain amount each frame. Result Screen pops up. First is the player score check the player score, is it more than the score we want to display if the player score is greater than the player display score by 100 increase the player display score by 100 if the player score is greater than the player display score by 10 increase the player display score by 10 else increase the player display score by 1 when finished move to the next score...and so on. I have thought of using timers to move from one score to the next, but not being in an Event.ENTER_FRAME it only does one if then moves to the next one.
Also the if statement for incrementing the score looks ridiculous and I'm thinking there has to be a better way to do it. I was thinking of making it a separate function but then I wouldn't know what to return, or how to return it so it looks like its increasing and not just showing the total number instantly. I'll try to expand on it a little more.
problem is the score board is shown at the beginning if requested and at the end to show your score when the game is finished. The problem I have is refreshing the scores (replacing the current text in the boxes) rather than just adding the text again into the dynamic text boxes..Here is my code :-
var tab = "game1score";// update for each game // game2score, game3score....
var filesend = "receive.php";
var modesend = "post";
//This is called when the high scores are viewed at the beginning of the game
private function onHighScoresButtonClick(event:MouseEvent):void { var receptobjet = variableTransaction(filesend, modesend, tab, false, false); highScoresPage.rejouerButton.visible = false; highScoresPage.blueMan.visible = false; removeChildAt(0); addChildAt(highScoresPage, 0);}[code].....
Over the years I've become an uber-nerd when it comes to flash game development. Now I'm thinking about looking into using my skills for helping other game-developers out there.I want to develop an API in AS3 which will allow the developer to do (as a start) the following:Display a dialogue which lets the user log into their "account" (hosted on my site).Send a score/value to the website and attribute it to the logged in user.Unlock an achievement (achievements will be set up by the developer in the web interface - which is where they will also get a key of some type to use with their API.Display highscores, other players profiles in-game, etc (show basically any stats in-game).All easy enough to develop straight off the bat. However; where it becomes frustrating is security. I'm not expecting an indestructible solution that I'm fully aware isn't possible, but what would be the most defensive way to approach this? One thought I've had was converting my API to a component so there's no access to the code (unless you decompile). The problem here is it's just not friendly to the developers, though it would allow me to create my own graphics for the UI (rather than coding many, many sprites).Private/public keys wont work unless there is very good protection against decompiling.
View 3 RepliesI'm building a flash-game-site for a while. The big trouble is Secure Score Submitting System .I search on the net and find some ineffective techniques:
-Secret word method: there is an secret word (crypto pass) on the server and flash gets it from server and uses for crypting score data then sends it to server. But the algoritm that does the crypto job, can be accesible with a swf decompiler. Also getting the secret word from server outside of flash is simple. Not safe!
-HTTP_REFERER method: php (or what else) check HTTP_REFERER data to determine where the post coming from. But with a simply firefox extensions, the referer header can be changed. Not safe!
That is my own idea but can only make cracking harder, not more:
-We can get flash vars with js (:swliveconnect) and send to server. Flash just make a fake submit that makes no effect. Just a trick. But not safe
I've been fiddling around with the flash quiz template and it's pretty much what I need to a point. But I really just need is to know how to keep score?

View 7 RepliesI want to create a very simple game for school. The user chooses answers based on questions, at the end the software presents some choices to the player based upon what they said. They have to choose food they like to eat, and the game tells them about the diet, they have 9 choices.
I wonder how I should keep track of what they player chose, and how to come up with the result based upon those choices. I made it with a score, so each answer had a value, but various arrangements of answers had the same score.
I am working on a flash game which is a shooting egg game. I want to export a score(what ever it may be ) to the xml file so that using php developer can take it from there n post it to the wall just like we play games on facebook n it asks you that "Do u want to post your scores?". The variable of Dynamic text box is score.
View 1 RepliesI wonder whether anyone knows of a solution to this: I want to embed a Captivate 4 quiz in a flash CS4 file and retrieve the score from the Captivate SWF so that I can use it in my flash file (AS3)- does anyone know a way of doing this (?eg. shared objects?). Communication between Flash and CP seems to be a lot more problematic than I anticipated.
View 0 RepliesI am creating a simple game where you must remember the name of a number of people. On the stage is a table with faces. Text appears, asking who, for example, "Mike" is. You then have to click the correct face. The questions appear randomly.I have come this far, but what I want to do is the following:
1) Restrict the number of random questions, presumably by adding a variable, with the value incrementing by each question, and tells the movie clip to go to the "game results" frame when reaching a certain number.
2) Keep track of the number of questions answered correctly/incorrectly. I suppose this is also done easily by adding a value for number of incorrect answers, which is increased for each incorrect answer, with the amount of correct answers being calculated like (total number of questions)-(incorrect answers).
3) Display the number of correct and incorrect questions on the "game results" frame. For example "You answered X number of questions correctly, and Z number of questions incorrectly".
I know that the pieces of code below should be used, but I don`t know how to put it all together, or where to put it. I suppose the main code should be in the first frame, and some should be in the buttons.
Code:
var questionsAsked:Number;
Code:
myValue++;
Code:
if (questionsAsked == 20){
gotoAndStop("results");
}
there is is simple Game ( kids multiplication ) game will be on Normal website

View 2 RepliesI have a question concerning high-scores.So I'm running an internship at a museum right now and I have made a game that currently saves high-score data through a SharedObject. However, they would rather have it stored online so people can see their scores at home after a visit to the museum, instead of having their own personal local top-10.What is the best way to do this? I was thinking of using mySQL or something of the same sort, yet I have 0 knowledge as to how that's done

View 1 Repliesis it possible to use graphics (the numbers 0-9 in one png-file) instead of a Textfield to show the high score of a game to the player? With a TextField it is easy to "refresh" the score but what can I do, if I want to use my png-files for the score? Is there a simple way to do this? How are other flash game designer do it?
My current solution (not tested, just in my head) is, to create 10 bitmaps (numbers from 0-9) or 1 bitmap with all the numbers in it and then convert the current score into a string, split this string and for every digit show the matching bitmap. Update: or should i try to use filters on the textfield to create a "more beautiful" score?

Creating a high score table in flash, using external file handling, can be achieved using server-side scripts, such as PHP. However, as this is not allowed for my game (school project), I need a way to write a few variables directly to a text file and read it back again. Is this possible? I am using AS 2.0. Any other ways in which a high score table, which is portable and can be saved and updated
View 3 RepliesI am having a problem getting Flash to work with PHP as I need Flash to read and write to a text file on a server to store simple name/score data for a games hi score table. I can read from the text file into Flash easily enough but also need to write to the file when a new high score is reached, so I need to use PHP to do that. I can send the data from flash to the php file via POST but so far it is not working. The PHP file is confirmed as working as I added an echo to the file which displayed a message so I could check that the server was running PHP - the files were also uploaded to a remote server so I could test them properly. Flash code is as follows:
//php filewriter
var myLV = new LoadVars();
function sendData() {
//sets up variable 'hsdata' to send to php
myLV.hsdata = myText;
myLV.send("hiscores.php");
}
I believe this sends the variable 'myText' to the php file as a variable called 'hsdata' which I want the php file to write into a text file. The mytext variable is just a long string that has all the scores and names in the hiscore. OK, XML would be better way of doing this but for speed I just want to get basic functionality working, so storing a simple text sting is adequate for now. The PHP code that reads the Flash 'hsdata' variable and writes it to the text file 'scores.txt' follows:

I created a game in Flash and outputted it into an APK file for use in my Android phone. I would like to make a quit function so that it quits the game application when you leave.
Right now, I have to quit using task manager in my mobile. Also how do you enable it to maintain a high score in the game so that next time the user plays the game again, the high score is still there? Right now, the highscore is lost when you quit the game application.
I'm working on a small game in Flash to get the basics of AS3 down. However, I ran into some problem that I can't seem to figure out. I have my Player 'avatar', which is supposed to pick up small coins that appear from the right side of the screen. These coins move to the left where my player character can pick them up. I want to remove them from the screen and increase the score by 10 when the character picks up a coin.
However, there seems to be a couple of bugs: when I pick up a coin, I get these errors:
TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter child must be non-null ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.
I push the coins to an array and then run a foreach loop on them to make them move and call hitTestObject() on them:

I want to create a simple high score list of 10 high scores of a game. From reading the forums I seem to get the idea that flash cannot create a simple text file. I don't have php or asp but do have cgi capability. Does anyone know where I can find a simple cgi-script that will allow me to write the text the cgi receives to a simple text file: game.sco I want to be able to write a single long string to it so that I create a string of values and can load it back in using flash loadvariables. I can create the string in flash... but how do I write it to a text file using a cgi script? the text file would include this string...I already know how to read it and split it to parse it into arrays:
