Well... I try to stop animation that coded on as3, but can't do it. Here the code!
//this make the ground move
function GroundAndEndingMove(event:Event):void
{
ground.x = ground.x - 5;
if (ground.x <= -846.24)
{
ground.x = -846.25;
ending.x = 503.5;
stop();
}
stopmation.x = stopmation.x - 5;
if (stopmation.x <= -846.24)
{
ground.x = -846.25;
ending.x = 503.5;
stop();
}
ending.x = ending.x - 5.1;
if (ending.x <= 503.5)
{
rowl.x = 548.1;
ending.x = 503.5;
stop();
}
trash.x = trash.x - 5.1;
if (trash.x <= 503.5)
{
trash.x = 503.5;
ball.x = ball.x + 5.1;
stop();
}
}
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, GroundAndEndingMove);
//this function make the ball to faled
function GameOver(event:Event):void
{
if(ball.hitTestObject(ground))
{
//here I should stop the animation wherever it be.
}
if (ball.hitTestObject(stopmation))
{
//also here
}
}
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, GameOver);
What to do? or that you have any better idea..
Help!
(Sorry about any spelling mistake... I made it long ago and I back to it right now..)
I Don't know if it help you, but anyway.. Try to remove event listener from the stage stage.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, GameOver);
It's simple logic – you are almost there.
Think in pseudo code first and don't get caught up in "programming"
if (A is true OR B is true) then
// end game: do cleanup etc.
// off user some option (new game, etc)
end if
function GameOver(event:Event):void
{
if(ball.hitTestObject(ground) || ball.hitTestObject(stopmation))
{
stage.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, GroundAndEndingMove);
stage.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, GameOver);
// all cleaned up: what happens now?
}
}

I tried many of code so far pause and play to game but did not work many of them.
I got a moving object on stage also I have timer dynamic text.
I need a working pause and play code on my project.
Example my moving object
/*Fish 3 move*/
var balik3x:Number=7;
var balik3y:Number=Math.random()*15
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,h3);
function h3(oly:Event) {
balik3.x+=balik3x;
balik3.y+=balik3y;
if ((balik3.x>=stage.stageWidth-balik3.width/2)|| (balik3.x <= balik3.width/2 )) {
balik3x*=-12;
}
if ((balik3.y>=stage.stageHeight-balik3.height/2)|| (balik3.y <= balik3.height/2 )) {
balik3y*=-1;
}
}
balik3.mouseEnabled = false;
My timer code
UPDATE: #www0z0k Did you mean like this.The timer pause and mouse over bug not exist anymore.But timer is not resume when I click to play button.
time.text="0:10";
var dispSecs=09;
var dispMins=0;
var timerInterval=setInterval(countDown,1000);
var control:Timer = new Timer(1000,0)
control.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, keko)
control.start();
function keko (evt:Event):void{
if(dispMins <1 && dispSecs <1 )
{
timeisup.visible = true;
timeisup.play();
}
}
function countDown()
{
dispSecs--;
if (dispMins == 0 && dispSecs == 0)
{
clearInterval(timerInterval);
}
else if (dispSecs == 0)
{
dispSecs = 59;
if (dispMins > 0)
{
dispMins--;
}
}
time.text = prependZero(dispMins) + ":" + prependZero(dispSecs);
}
function prependZero(num)
{
if(num<10)
{
num=""+num;
}
return(num);
}
The last code I tried.But it's not work exactly. UPDATED
play1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, resumeGame);
function resumeGame(event:MouseEvent):void{
addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, keko);
stage.frameRate = 30;
}
pause1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, pauseGame);
function pauseGame(event:MouseEvent):void{
stage.removeEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, keko);
clearInterval(timerInterval);
stage.frameRate = 0.01;
}
Not specific to your code but you'll get the idea
private function togglePause():void{
// check if the event listener exists
if (!stage.hasEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME)){
// add it if it doesn't
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, tick);
} else {
// remove it if it does
stage.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, tick);
}
}
I think there might be a small mistake , you have added the event listener to this and try to remove the event listener from stage. try this code and if this doesnt work let me know I will provide you another solution
play1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, resumeGame);
function resumeGame(event:MouseEvent):void{
addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, keko);
stage.frameRate = 30;
}
pause1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, pauseGame);
function pauseGame(event:MouseEvent):void{
stage.removeEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, keko);
clearInterval(timerInterval);
stage.frameRate = 0.01;
}
I'm trying to make simple shooting game with Fiat Multipla falling up to bottom of the screen. I have created function to generate falling multipla and within this function I have a problem.
The main issue is that after change of multideath status to 1 "Death" function does nothing even if It is kept with ENTER_FRAME. Child becomes invisible as I implemented it in multipla movieclip, but even after response from there with Death = 1, nothing happens.
I'm new to all this, I've met and solved few issues during programming, but here's my brickwall for now. Code's either failing completely or I don't know something that's obvious. As I said, I'm newbie.
Thanks a lot for help!
Here's the function:
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.desktop.NativeApplication;
Multitouch.inputMode = MultitouchInputMode.TOUCH_POINT;
Mouse.hide();
var velocity = 0;
var ammo = 6;
LGUI.LGUIammo.gotoAndStop(6);
var counter = 0;
function multiplarain()
{
var x1 = Math.ceil(Math.random() * 280);
var y1 = -200;
var random:Multipla = new Multipla();
var life = 265;
var multideath = 0;
random.x = 100 + x1;
random.y = y1
addChild(random);
random.gotoAndStop(1);
setChildIndex(random, +1);
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, Death);
function Death(event:Event):void
{
if(multideath >= 1)
{
removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, Death);
removeChild(random);
}
}
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, fl_EnterFrameHandler);
function fl_EnterFrameHandler(event:Event):void
{
if(random.y >= 680)
{
removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, fl_EnterFrameHandler)
removeChild(random);
trace("rofl");
}
}
random.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, fl_AnimateVertically);
function fl_AnimateVertically(event:Event)
{
velocity = velocity + 0.000035;
random.y += 1.5 + velocity;
}
random.addEventListener(TouchEvent.TOUCH_TAP, fl_TapHandler);
function fl_TapHandler(event:TouchEvent):void
{
counter = counter + 1;
ammo -= 1;
}
if(ammo == 6)
{
LGUI.LGUIammo.gotoAndStop(6);
}
if(ammo == 5)
{
LGUI.LGUIammo.gotoAndStop(5);
}
if(ammo == 4)
{
LGUI.LGUIammo.gotoAndStop(4);
}
if(ammo == 3)
{
LGUI.LGUIammo.gotoAndStop(3);
}
if(ammo == 2)
{
LGUI.LGUIammo.gotoAndStop(2);
}
if(ammo == 1)
{
LGUI.LGUIammo.gotoAndStop(1);
}
if(ammo <= 0)
{
LGUI.LGUIammo.gotoAndStop(7);
}
HGUI.saved.text = counter;
this.addEventListener( Event.ENTER_FRAME, handleCollision)
var kucyk = LGUI.LGUIlife.lifeitself;
function handleCollision(e:Event):void
{
if (random.hitTestObject(LGUI))
{
kucyk = LGUI.LGUIlife.lifeitself;
kucyk.width -= 0.1;
}
/*if (kucyk.width == 0.75)
{
trace("cycki");
NativeApplication.nativeApplication.exit();
}*/
}
}
and here's multipla's movieclip in library code:
Multitouch.inputMode = MultitouchInputMode.TOUCH_POINT;
this.addEventListener(TouchEvent.TOUCH_TAP, fl_TapHandler2);
function fl_TapHandler2(event:TouchEvent):void
{
this.gotoAndPlay(2);
}
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, fl_EnterFrameHandler);
function fl_EnterFrameHandler(event:Event):void
{
if(this.currentFrame == 60)
{
this.visible = false;
MovieClip(root).multideath = 1;
trace(MovieClip(root).multideath);
removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, fl_EnterFrameHandler);
removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, fl_TapHandler2);
}
}
it's been like 10 years since I last time worked with AS2 but I'd guess that this Multipla sets the multideath property in the wrong place. If i remember corrctly, root is the top-most level (your application). So if your first code is not on the main timeline but in a movieclip that is on the main timeline it won't work. Try to put a trace into the Death function to see if the multideath is really changing there:
trace(multideath);
try this in the multipla code:
parent.multideath = 1;
instead of
MovieClip(root).multideath = 1;
And I'm asking myself why do you need so many enter frame listeners? You can have just one and combine all animations in one function.
Also you don't need to check for multideath on every frame, just remove the movieclip in a separate function:
function removeMultipla():void
{
removeChild(random);
}
Just call this function from your Multipla instead of setting the multideath property:
parent.removeMultipla();
I have a few .as files. They are: MainClass.as, FrontEnd.as, Levels.as, and Hero.as. My problem (as far as I know) is in my Hero.as file. Let me descibe how I have it all set up thusfar because I have been a bit concerned that there are better ways of doing things in AS3.
MainClass.as makes a variable of FrontEnd (menus, namely the main menu) and calls it up (addChild).
FrontEnd.as are my menus. buttons and whatnot...
Levels.as right now just calls up level 1 when the start new game button is pressed on the main menu. Had one hell of a time figuring out how to use functions from a different .as file. Hero.as I will add my code for. I'm posting the whole thing because I don't know where my problem is.

{

}
else if(currentPlayer.x > stage.stageWidth)
{
currentPlayer.x -= halfWidth;
}
}
}
}
trace(currentPlayer); is giving me [object player] instead of the instance name "roger". (Later on I want more playable characters.) I'm not sure if the problem is there or in my levels file, which I'll post here. (not as long as Hero.as)
public class Levels extends MovieClip
{
var currentLevel:MovieClip;
public function Levels()
{
addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, onStage);
}
private function onStage(event:Event):void
{
removeEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, gotoLevelOne);
}
public function gotoLevelOne():void
{
var levelOne:LevelOne = new LevelOne();
var hero:Hero = new Hero();
addChild(hero);
levelOne.x = stage.stageWidth * .5;
levelOne.y = stage.stageHeight * .5;
addChild(levelOne);
currentLevel = levelOne;
hero.currentPlayer.x = 100;
hero.currentPlayer.y = 100;
addChild(hero.currentPlayer);
}
}
}
If I remove = roger; from var currentPlayer:MovieClip = roger; it gives me #1009 null object even though I told it in addCurrentPlayer() to change currentPlayer to roger. On level 1, everything shows up but I can't move my character. I know that it worked when I was working on his animations and I would call him to the main menu. Everything worked on him. What's the problem now?
Firstly, there's a lot of things wrong with your code:
In your Hero Class, the 'onStage' Event handler doesn't actually do anything other than remove the event listener that triggers it. While it's good practice to remove the event listener, there should be some other purpose to the Event handler. If there isn't you can remove it and not bother listening for the ADDED_TO_STAGE Event.
Similarly, in your Levels Class 'onStage' Event handler you attempt to remove the event, but name the wrong handler. I assume you want to remove the event handler and then run the 'gotoLevelOne' method. If so, just have the Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE listener call 'gotoLevelOne' and then remove the Event listener there:
public function Levels()
{
addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, gotoLevelOne);
}
public function gotoLevelOne():void
{
removeEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, gotoLevelOne);
// class continues....
OK, so to your question:
You will be getting the null error because you are referring to currentPlayer from outside the Hero Class, before calling addCurrentPlayer (where it is set).
If you temporarily define currentPlayer as a private variable, the compiler should give you a line number where you first refer to currentPlayer from OUTSIDE the Hero Class (the error will be something like 'Class X is trying to access a private (or non-existent) property of Y Class').
You can then sort out WHY you are accessing currentPlayer before calling addCurrentPlayer. You may also want to think about if currentPlayer NEEDS to be public (if so, then what is 'addCurrentPlayer' for? That function effectively works as a setter for currentPlayer).
EDIT:
At the moment you are adding new KEY_DOWN and KEY_UP event listeners EVERY frame of your game loop. This is unnecessary. Add them both ONCE in the initialisation of your game (perhaps in your Hero's onStage handler), and count on them to trigger the appropriate handlers.
You will want to add the KEY_DOWN and KEY_UP listeners to 'stage', not currentPlayer, so:
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, keyDownHandler);
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_UP, keyUpHandler);
You will need to add the listeners AFTER your Hero instance has been added to the Stage though, so it has access to 'stage'. That's why it makes sense to add the listeners in the Hero's onstage handler.
First I really want to thank you for all the help you have given me so far, since I did not know anything about AS3 (basics gotoAnd stuff only) I came to Stackoverflow searching for some code already made but I was encouraged by some members to make the code by myself, now after almost 2 weeks and thanks to a lot of great people my soccer penalty kick game is almost finished, I really love this place.
I know I have to work on some collisions and other stuff since currently the game is not the best (remember I’m just a newbie), but Unfortunately while checking the game functioning by playing it over and over again, I have found the following:
1- When you get 3 fails, then game is over and a play again button appears after some animation, you click on it and everything seems to be fine, but when you continue playing the second time you reach 3 fails, when you click the button a new cursor appears??? Please help
2- I tried millions of times to make the ball move with speed and to animate its trajectory but was unable to make it, any help on this will be highly appreciated. I have speed variables and gravity but I didn’t know how to use them
3- I'm getting a actionscript error related to a removeChild, I tried many times removing some lines but I´m unable to fix it.
4- I'm using too many timers, I don't know if this is recommendable.
Here is the .fla file https://rapidshare.com/files/1702748636/kicks.fla just in case anybody want to try the game (this is really simple since it is my 1st AS project) and want to help me with the code and help me improving the game, and here is the code if somebody does not need to get into the file (I know this place is full of really smart people), once I finish it I know I will be able to do a lot of stuff with AS3.

I’ll really appreciate it guys , I promise I won’t be bothering again for a long time
1/3.
Problem 1 & 3 are the same problem. Looks like your trying to remove the cursor from the stage (removeChild) every click (so it will error after the first click because it's no longer a child of anything). Your adding it back on your delayedAction2 which doesn't run unless your hit test is true and only after 3 seconds. On initialize game you create a whole new cursor and add that to the stage which is why you get a duplicate after the first game.
Rather than removeChild the cursor, it might better to just set it's visibility to false/true and only create it once.
You'll need to use an EnterFrame handler, or timer, or tween for this. I can post an example later.
I can't figure out why you're using timers at all or need to delay your functions, except maybe to allow time for the kick animation?
You're code is very disorganized, naming functions things like 'delayedAction' is bad as it doesn't really tell you anything about the purposed of the function. You also have way too much functions inside of other functions. Here is a quick refactoring of your code I've done to hopefully teach a few things. I've also added the tween for the ball animation.

This is my fist time ever needing to use this for one of my games. I want to have the character jump. I have been trying to get this result for about an hour, but with no luck =( I am using AS3, and flash CS5.5. So far all my code does is make the character go left, and right based on keyboard input. Could someone please help?
Here is my code so far:
public class Dodgeball extends MovieClip
{
public var character:Character;
public var rightDown:Boolean = false;
public var leftDown:Boolean = false;
public var speed:Number = 3;
public var timer:Timer;
public function Dodgeball()
{
character= new Character();
addChild(character);
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, myKeyDown);
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_UP, MyKeyUp);
timer = new Timer(24);
timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, moveClip);
timer.start();
}
public function myKeyDown(event:KeyboardEvent):void
{
if (event.keyCode == Keyboard.RIGHT)
{
rightDown = true;
if(character.currentLabel != "walkingRight")
{
character.gotoAndStop ("walkingRight");
}
}
if (event.keyCode == Keyboard.LEFT)
{
leftDown = true;
if (character.currentLabel != "backingUp")
{
character.gotoAndStop("backingUp");
}
}
}
public function MyKeyUp(event:KeyboardEvent):void
{
if(event.keyCode == Keyboard.RIGHT)
{
character.gotoAndStop("standing");
rightDown = false;
}
if (event.keyCode == Keyboard.LEFT)
{
character.gotoAndStop("standingLeft");
leftDown = false;
}
}
public function moveClip(event:TimerEvent):void
{
if (rightDown)
{
character.x += speed;
}
if (leftDown)
{
character.x -=speed;
}
event.updateAfterEvent();
}
}
}
One method you can try is found here: http://www.actionscript.org/forums/showthread.php3?t=256009 Like your speed variable, grav determines the vertical position of the character.
var grav:Number = 10;
var jumping:Boolean = false;
var jumpPow:Number = 0;
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, onKeyDown);
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, update);
function onKeyDown(evt:KeyboardEvent):void
{
if(evt.keyCode == Keyboard.UP)
{
if(jumping != true)
{
jumpPow = -50;
jumping = true;
}
}
}
function update(evt:Event):void
{
if(jumping)
{
player_mc.y += jumpPow;
jumpPow += grav;
if(player_mc.y >= stage.stageHeight)
{
jumping = false;
player_mc.y = stage.stageHeight;
}
}
}
Edit: Jason's method is fine, but I'm not sure if it would be useful if you plan to have some kind of collision detection.
What I would do is create a motion tween of the character jumping. then call gotoAndPlay on that frame, and on the last frame of the tween put a stop, or a gotoAndStop on the "stationary" frame, or whatever frame represents a neutral position.
if (event.keyCode == Keyboard.SHIFT)
{
character.gotoAndPlay("simpleJump");
jumpDown = false;
}
This will give you the greatest animation control over the look and feel. You could also do it programmatically, but personally, I recommend against it. It will take less time to set it up, and you can tweak and refine the jump animations later. You could make several types of jump animations based on object near the target etc.
I would also change this stuff:
if(character.currentLabel != "walkingRight")
By defining a new function where you have all the rules for when and where something can be done, so that in your control logic, you just call
if(characterCan(character,"walkright")) ...
Where characterCan(String) is a method that check if this is possible. For instance, if you are jumping and shooting, you obviously cannot walk right, so in the end, you will have to start adding pieces of logic into those if statements and it's gonna become a cluttered mess.
A very simple approach is to have a vertical speed as well as a horizontal speed.
When the user presses "UP" or "JUMP", set y speed to a negative value and update it in your movieClip function. When the character gets to a certain height, reverse the speed.
Using gravity and acceleration looks better but this is a really good place to start. Look into kinematic equations to see how you would make the character accelerate.
public var originalY;
public function myKeyDown(event:KeyboardEvent):void
{
if (event.keyCode == Keyboard.UP && vSpeed == 0)
{
originalY = character.y;
ySpeed = -1;
}
}
public function moveClip(event:TimerEvent):void
{
if (vSpeed != 0)
{
character.y += vSpeed;
/* make the character fall down after reaching max jump height */
if(originalY - character.y > jumpHeight) {
vSpeed = vSpeed * -1;
}
/* level the character after he's hit the ground (so he doesn't go through) */
else if(character.y >= originalY) {
character.y = originalY;
vSpeed = 0;
}
}
}
