Creat Boundaries - actionscript-3

Hello Everyone again :) I'm having an issue with boundaries actually about creating boundaries. In my stage I got 2 mc's names : Dispenser and Puller. Dispenser creating particles and puller is pulling them. I just need to set a boundary like a path.
But i couldn't so asking for your help :)
Bdw the code is from this site : http://www.freeactionscript.com/?s=puller&x=0&y=0

}

var tempParticle:Particle = new Particle();
tempParticle.x = (target1.x - target1.width / 2) + (Math.random() * target1.width);

tempParticle.mass = tempParticle.width / 2 + tempParticle.height / 2;
particlesArray.push(tempParticle);
addChild(tempParticle);
}
private function updateParticle():void

// I know i can set boundries here but idk how to so :)
if(tempParticle.hitTestObject(puller_mc))
{

trace(_sayac);
}
else if (tempParticle.alpha <= 0)
{

}
else if (tempParticle.x < 0)
{

}
else if (tempParticle.x > stage.stageWidth)
{
destroyParticle(tempParticle);
}
else if (tempParticle.y < 0)
{
destroyParticle(tempParticle);
}
else if (tempParticle.y > stage.stageHeight)
{
destroyParticle(tempParticle);
}
}
}
private function destroyParticle(particle:MovieClip):void
{
for (var i = 0; i < particlesArray.length; i++)
{
var tempParticle:MovieClip = particlesArray[i];
if (tempParticle == particle)
{
particlesCurrent--;
particlesArray.splice(i,1);
removeChild(tempParticle);
}
}
}
private function onEnterFrameLoop(event:Event):void
{
createParticle(dispenser_mc, puller_mc);
updateParticle();
}
}
}

actually there is no boundary in this code. let me explain the main parts of this code for you:
this is the most important part:
tempParticle.rot = Math.atan2(target1.y - target2.y, target1.x - target2.x);
tempParticle.xSpeed = Math.cos(tempParticle.rot) * radians / particleSpeed;
tempParticle.ySpeed = Math.sin(tempParticle.rot) * radians / particleSpeed;
rot is the angle to reach the puller.
xSpeed is how much the particle should go to right  every frame to reach the puller.
ySpeed is how much the particle should go to down every frame to reach the puller.
and in updateParticle function, the partcle will move, according to xSpeed and ySpeed.
so the correct xSpeed and YSpeed will cause particles to go straight.not a boundary !

How to implement enemy behaviour based on type?

I am building a game which create three types of enemy.Amount them only type 3 can fire others cannt.This is my enemy class
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.utils.getTimer;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.utils.Timer;
import flash.events.TimerEvent;
import flash.geom.Point;
public class Enemy extends MovieClip
{
private var lastTime:int;
var hitCounter:Number = 1;
public var eType:Number = 0;
private var startYpos:Number = 0;
var nextFire:Timer;
var enemyType:Number;
public var bullets:Array = new Array ;
var speedY:Number = 50;
var enemySpeed:Number = 50;
var firstPos:Number = 0;
var fireCounter:Number = 0;
var firePause:Number = 10;
public function Enemy(xPos,yPos:Number,t:Number)
{
// constructor code
this.x = xPos;
firstPos = this.y = yPos;
this.enemyType = t;
lastTime = getTimer();
this.gotoAndStop(t);
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,moveEnemy);
}
public function moveEnemy(event:Event)
{
// get time passed
var timePassed:int = getTimer() - lastTime;
lastTime += timePassed;
// move bullet
if (this.y + this.height / 2 > firstPos + 100 && speedY > 0)
{
speedY *= -1;
}
if (this.y - this.height / 2 < firstPos && speedY < 0)
{
speedY *= -1;
}
this.x -= enemySpeed * timePassed / 1000;
this.y += speedY * timePassed / 1000;
// bullet past top of screen
if (this.x - this.width / 2 < 0)
{
deleteEnemy();
}
if (this.enemyType == 3)
{
canFire();
}
}
public function canFire()
{
if ((fireCounter > firePause))
{
MovieClip(parent).createEnemyBullet();
trace((('Enemy Type : ' + enemyType) + ' and firing'));
fireCounter = 0;
}
else
{
fireCounter++;
}
}
public function deleteEnemy()
{
if (this.currentFrame == 2)
{
this.gotoAndStop(4);
}
else
{
//trace(MovieClip(parent).enemyKilled[this.enemyType-1]);
MovieClip(parent).enemyKilled[this.enemyType - 1]++;
MovieClip(parent).removeEnemy(this);
parent.removeChild(this);
removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,moveEnemy);
}
}
}
}
Now once a enemy type 3 start firing then every enemy start firing.i want just only enemy type 3 can fire not other enemy.How i do it?
Thanks in advance
Addition :
public function createEnemyBullet()
{
var bullet:Bullet = new Bullet(enemy.x - 10,enemy.y,500,-1);
bullets.push(bullet);
addChild(bullet);
//setEnemyBullet();
}
Then why don't you try something like this. `
public function canFire()
{
if(enemyType == 3){
return;
}
if ((fireCounter > firePause))
{
MovieClip(parent).createEnemyBullet();
trace((('Enemy Type : ' + enemyType) + ' and firing'));
fireCounter = 0;
}
else
{
fireCounter++;
}
}

How to make a movieClip move independent of the stage if added on it?

In my flash-made game, if my character jump on top of an enemy movieclip it spawns 3 minions from another class by MovieClip(root).addChild(spawn1);. In my minions class I've put the code for them to fall and stop upon hitting the ground and also follow my character.
I have a VCam(virtual camera) movieClip to follow my character(who moves on the stage, not the stage around him) with this code build-in:
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.geom.Matrix;
import flash.geom.Rectangle;
import flash.geom.Point;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
//VCam
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, handleEnterFrame);
function handleEnterFrame(event:Event):void {
if (parent) {
parent.scaleX = 1 / scaleX;
parent.scaleY = 1 / scaleY;
if (rotation == 0) {
parent.x = (width / 2 - x) / scaleX;
parent.y = (height / 2 - y) / scaleY;
parent.rotation = 0;
} else {
var bounds:Rectangle = getBounds(this);
var angle:Number = rotation * Math.PI / 180;
var midX:Number = -x / scaleX;
var midY:Number = -y / scaleY;
var rx:Number = -bounds.width / 2;
var ry:Number = -bounds.height / 2;
var cos:Number = Math.cos(angle);
var sin:Number = Math.sin(angle);
var rotatedX:Number = rx * cos - ry * sin;
var rotatedY:Number = ry * cos + rx * sin;
var cornerX:Number = midX - rotatedX;
var cornerY:Number = midY - rotatedY;
cos = Math.cos(-angle);
sin = Math.sin(-angle);
parent.x = cornerX * cos - cornerY * sin;
parent.y = cornerY * cos + cornerX * sin;
parent.rotation = -rotation;
}
}
}
addEventListener(Event.REMOVED, handleRemoved, false, 0, true);
function handleRemoved(event:Event):void
{
removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, handleEnterFrame);
removeEventListener(Event.REMOVED, handleRemoved);
}
When I jump with my character it seems that the minions follow the movement of my vcam and not behaving normally, jumping with the camera and falling throu'the ground when the character falls.
If I add a child normally from the main timeline by addChild(m_clip); it does not behave like that.
Is there an easy fix? Thanks!
This is the minions class code:
package {
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;
public class EnemySpawned extends MovieClip {
protected var gravitysp: Number = 1;
protected var ySpeedsp: Number = 0;
protected var Speedsp: Number = 6.5;
var charMTL:MovieClip;
public function EnemySpawned()
{
this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, movement);
trace('exist');
}
function movement(event:Event):void
{
var MTL:MovieClip = MovieClip(root);
charMTL = MTL.char1;
ySpeedsp += gravitysp;
if(! MTL.ground_1.hitTestPoint(this.x, this.y, true))
{
this.y += ySpeedsp;
}
if(ySpeedsp > 40)
{
ySpeedsp = 40;
}
for(var j:int = 0; j<20; j++)
{
if(MTL.ground_1.hitTestPoint(this.x, this.y, true))
{
this.y--
ySpeedsp = 0;
}
}
var Distance:Number = charMTL.x - this.x;
if(Distance < -charMTL.width/2 - this.width/2)
{
this.x -= Speedsp;
}
if(Distance > charMTL.width/2 + this.width/2)
{
this.x += Speedsp;
}
}
}
}
There is no moving of ground_1 movieClip via code.

How can I set the damage level of enemy

var s:int = (Math.random() * 12);
x = RandomX[r];
y = RandomY[s];
this.BG = BG;

In this code I have added a new type of Enemy in Level 2 and I have also written code for its HitTest property..In which each enemy of level 2 requires more than 1 bullet to kill.. But when I shoot a bullet to one enemy and then I shoot another bullet to another enemy of same type the another enemy gets killed. It means that the second enemy is getting killed in only 1 single bullet.. So how can I solve this issue..?
Please Help.. Thanks in advance..
The problem in your code lies within the checkCollision function. It basically goes over the first for loop and ignores the second. But it's best if you just assign the enemies health by adding a health parameter within your Enemy class and have each bullet decrease their health by 1. That way, you can just go through your array and remove any enemies that reach 0 health.
EDIT: I just looked over your code again and realized it's the bug2HitCount that's screwing everything up.

Flash AS3:Constructor functions must be instance method

Hello guys i have a problem and no idea how to fix it :( Can someone tell me how to do it?
Constructor functions must be instance methods.
So here is my code:
package
{
import com.coreyoneil.collision.CollisionList;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.display.Sprite;
public class terrain extends Sprite
{
private var wheel:Ball;
private var collisionList:CollisionList;
private var speed:Number;
private const GRAVITY:Number = .75;
private const FRICTION:Number = .98;
private const IMMOVABLE:Number = 10000;
public function terrain():void
{
if(stage == null)
{
addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, init, false, 0, true);
addEventListener(Event.REMOVED_FROM_STAGE, clean, false, 0, true);
}
else
{
init();
}
}
private function init(e:Event = null):void
{
collisionList = new CollisionList(terrain);
wheel = new wheel(10);
wheel.mass = IMMOVABLE * 2;
addChild(wheel);
collisionList.addItem(wheel);
wheel.x = 30;
wheel.y = 10;
speed = 0;
terrain.graphics.lineStyle(15);
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, updateScene);
}
private function updateScene(e:Event):void
{
var collisions:Array = collisionList.checkCollisions();
if(collisions.length)
{
var collision:Object = collisions[0];
var angle:Number = collision.angle;
var overlap:int = collision.overlapping.length;
var sin:Number = Math.sin(angle);
var cos:Number = Math.cos(angle);
var vx0:Number = wheel.vx * cos + wheel.vy * sin;
var vy0:Number = wheel.vy * cos - wheel.vx * sin;
// Unlike the other examples, here I'm choosing to calculate the amount
// of bounce based on the objects' masses, with a default mass of 10000 (IMMOVABLE)
// being used for the drawing the wheel is colliding with. As such, the only
// real variable in play here is the current vector of the wheel.
vx0 = ((wheel.mass - IMMOVABLE) * vx0) / (wheel.mass + IMMOVABLE);
wheel.vx = vx0 * cos - vy0 * sin;
wheel.vy = vy0 * cos + vx0 * sin;
wheel.vx -= cos * overlap /wheel.radius;
wheel.vy -= sin * overlap / wheel.radius;
wheel.vx += speed;
}
trace("down");
wheel.vy += GRAVITY;
wheel.vy *= FRICTION;
wheel.vx *= FRICTION;
wheel.x += wheel.vx;
wheel.y += wheel.vy;
if(wheel.x > stage.stageWidth) wheel.x = stage.stageWidth;
if(wheel.x < 0) wheel.x = 0;
if(wheel.y > stage.stageHeight - (wheel.height >> 1))
{
wheel.y = 10;
wheel.x = 30;
wheel.vx = wheel.vy = 0;
}
}
private function clean(e:Event):void
{
removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, updateScene);
}
}
}
There are some comment in the code.. Just ignore it i have used example.
collisionList = new CollisionList(terrain);
terrain.graphics.lineStyle(15);
This is error 1026, also thrown if the constructor is static, private or in your case used as an identifier. Either use this.graphics instead of terrain.graphics or just graphics.etc (remove terrain) and also pass 'this' as parameter for 'CollisionList'.
(Unrelated: Also it's better to name classes starting with a capital "Terrain")

Collision detection for loop problem, only one array item tested?

[I apologise if this isn't really an in depth question, but I wanted to solve this once and for all]
I was trying to get look into quadtrees, but already ran into trouble getting collision detection without any optimization working properly. Did a search and found a pretty neat example:
http://wonderfl.net/c/kyLx
(onenterframeC part mostly)
Trying to imitate this, it won't work the same.
Only some collisions are detected between particular objects. When the objects are not moving it seems to work alot better for some reason.
I really can't figure out whats the problem, the code is essentially the same as the sample. I did not blindy copy pasted it, I understands whats happening except for this part:
if (j <= i)
continue;
J would never become bigger that I right? The line also completely removes any working collisions for me.
Here is what I did:

Any help would greatly be appreciated, want to get further on this !
EDIT: Changed some stuff, there is progress but stuff still is unclear to me !
Changed some things in TestWorld.as:
package com.martino.world
{
import com.martino.objects.Ball;
import com.martino.objects.CollisionObject;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;
/**
* ...
* #author Martino Wullems
*/
public class TestWorld extends MovieClip
{
public var objects:Array;
public function TestWorld()
{
initWorld();
}
private function initWorld():void
{
objects = new Array();
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, loopWorld);
}
private function loopWorld(e:Event):void
{
var object:*;
for (var i:int = 0; i < objects.length; i++) {
MoveObject(objects[i]);
//CheckCollision(i);// doesn't work here for some reason [case 1]
}
CheckCollision(0); //[case 2]
}
private function CheckCollision(i:int):void
{
//test collision
for (var i:int = 0; i < objects.length; i++){ //only use in case 2
var elementA:CollisionObject;
var elementB:CollisionObject;
elementA = objects[i];
for (var j:int = i + 1; j < objects.length; j++) {
if (j <= i){
continue; //j resets each I loop and therefor sets collision to false while it could be true
}
elementB = objects[ j ]// as ObjSprite;
if (elementA.hitTestObject(elementB)) {
elementA.isHit = elementB.isHit = true;
}
}
} //[case 2]
}
private function MoveObject(object:CollisionObject):void
{
object.x += object.vx;
object.y += object.vy;
////////////////////
//check boundaries//
////////////////////
if (object.x > stage.stageWidth)
{
object.vx *= -1;
}else if (object.x < 0)
{
object.vx *= -1;
}else if (object.y > stage.stageHeight)
{
object.vy *= -1;
}else if (object.y < 0)
{
object.vy *= -1;
}
object.isHit = false;// where do we check when it isn't colliding? this seems messy!
}
public function addObject(object:CollisionObject):void
{
objects.push(object);
addChild(object);
}
}
}
Also added a setter and getter in collisionobject (so section before the edit).
Not sure why I can't put the checkcollision inside the loop on the enter frame function? (when I do no collisions are shown). And placing "isHit = false" inside moveobjects to reset a check for a hit also seems pretty messy.
I can't seem to find out when the objects aren't colliding to reset them I guess.
Making an else statement on the hittest to check if there is no collision doesn't work, seems logical since there could be collisions with more than just 2 items in the hittestcheck.
Any idea's ?
I had to look at the original source to understand this. It is below, for reference.
This line
if (j <= i) continue;
is a permutation check; it basically makes sure that each combination only gets checked once, instead of multiple times. However, for this, you need to have two For loops - an inner one and an outer one.
You've done the same thing with the following line:
for (var j:int = i + 1; i < objects.length; j++) {
Try using that for loop instead of the one that starts from zero. Leave the "if j <= i" line commented, though. I think that will solve your problem. (Those two statements can't coexist in this loop; if used together, they'll cause the problems you're describing.)
Good luck.
Original source from website:
for (i = 0; i < myrects.length; i++) {
elementA = myrects[ i ] as ObjMyRect;
for (j = 0; j < myrects.length; j++) {
if (j <= i)
continue;
elementB = myrects[ j ] as ObjMyRect;
if (elementA.rect.x + elementA.rect.width < elementB.rect.x) {
} else if (elementA.rect.x > elementB.rect.x + elementB.rect.width) {
} else if (elementA.rect.y + elementA.rect.height < elementB.rect.y) {
} else if (elementA.rect.y > elementB.rect.y + elementB.rect.height) {
} else {
elementA.isHit = elementB.isHit = true;
}
}
}
(For what it's worth, I think that this guy's code actually checks objects against themselves for collision - he should change the "if j <= i" line to "if j < i". You solved this problem with your original for loop.)
Couple of things, after looking at his code, and reviewing your code.
This part IS necessary to make sure you don't waste time going through the loop and re-checking items that have already been compared.
if (j <= i)
continue;
Imagine you have 3 items in the array, and compare item 3 to item 0. Then you compare item 3 to item 1, and item 3, to item 2. THEN you compare item 2 to... item 3? You've already done that. You want to compare item 2 to anything lesser than itself so you avoid duplicates.
Your code is close to his, but you've swapped out his version of the hitTest (which uses position + dimension) with the already-defined hitTestObject. I'm only seeing one hit-test on the first square. Something seems off in that... I'd drop some trace statements in there and see what's up.
Last, when you uncomment his code, does it work?
