Actionscript Loader Error #1009 - actionscript-3

I'm trying to make a basic loader that uses Splash.swf to then load myisogame.swf
I keep getting error #1009. It's a template we was given in class, originally the Splash.swf directed to Game.swf, but in the code below there is only one mention of where it directs to.
In the template Game.fla doesn't have any code in it.
Here is the Splash

I tried the code you supplied (without the numbers at the bottom) and it worked just fine for me.
error #1009 is a runtime error when you use a variable that hasn't been defined yet. I would suggest debugging from Flash Pro (ctrl + shift +enter) and let it show you where it breaks.
In your FLA, you said there is no code, but in the properties panel you do see the class field with "Splash" in it right? that is what links the class to the FLA.
It is possible that the runtime error you are seeing is not in the Splash class but in either BluBox or LoadingAnimation. Do those have class files? If not, take a look in the Library and you'll have two movie clips that are exported for actionScript with those names. Check in them to see if there might be some framescript.

(Actionscript 3) Pixel-perfect collision detection between the walls and player?

I am trying to make a flash game in which there is collision detection between the player and the walls. However, when I try using Wall11.hitTestPoint(), I cannot get the collision detection to be perfect. Then, I decided to use bitmap but it is hard to code this because the wall is irregularly shaped (it is not a square, rectangle, circle or any regular shape). Is there anyway to improve the collision detection with walls?
function checkCollision(_debug:Boolean = false):Boolean {
var bmd1:BitmapData = new BitmapData(Wall11.width, Wall11.height, true, 0);
var bmd2:BitmapData = new BitmapData(LevelOnePlayer.width, LevelOnePlayer.height, true, 0);
bmd1.draw(Wall11);
bmd2.draw(LevelOnePlayer);
if (_debug) {
var bmp:Bitmap = new Bitmap(bmd1);
bmp.x = Wall11.x;
bmp.y = Wall11.y;
addChild(bmp);
var bmp2:Bitmap = new Bitmap(bmd2);
bmp2.x = LevelOnePlayer.x;
bmp2.y = LevelOnePlayer.y;
addChild(bmp2);
}
if(bmd1.hitTest(new Point(Wall11.x, Wall11.y), 255, bmd2, new Point(LevelOnePlayer.x, LevelOnePlayer.y), 255))
return true;
if (!_debug) {
bmd1.dispose();
bmd2.dispose();
}
return false;
}
These are basics of hitTestPoint stuff.

AS3 BitmapData Collision

I am having a problem with BitmapData Collision detection, my class is not detecting any collision at all
BitmapCollision.as
package com.ipromoweb.demoapp
{
import flash.display.BitmapData;
import flash.display.DisplayObject;
import flash.display.DisplayObjectContainer;
import flash.geom.Matrix;
import flash.geom.Point;
import flash.geom.Rectangle;
/**

*/
public class BitmapCollision {
private var collides:Boolean = false;
public function check(obj1:DisplayObjectContainer, obj2:DisplayObjectContainer):Boolean {
// obj1
var obj1Rect:Rectangle = obj1.getBounds(obj1);
var obj1Offset:Matrix = obj1.transform.matrix;
obj1Offset.tx = obj1.x - obj1Rect.x;
obj1Offset.ty = obj1.y - obj1Rect.y;
var obj1ClipBmpData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(obj1Rect.width, obj1Rect.height, true, 0);
obj1ClipBmpData.draw(obj1, obj1Offset);
// obj2
var obj2Rect:Rectangle = obj2.getBounds(obj2);
var obj2Offset:Matrix = obj2.transform.matrix;
obj2Offset.tx = obj2.x - obj2Rect.x;
obj2Offset.ty = obj2.y - obj2Rect.y;
var obj2ClipBmpData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(obj2Rect.width, obj2Rect.height, true, 0);
obj2ClipBmpData.draw(obj2, obj2Offset);
var rLoc:Point = new Point(obj2Rect.x, obj2Rect.y);
var bLoc:Point = new Point(obj1Rect.x, obj1Rect.y);
if (obj1ClipBmpData.hitTest(bLoc, 255, obj2ClipBmpData, rLoc, 255)) {
trace("hit");
collides = true;
}else {
collides = false;
}
obj1ClipBmpData.dispose();
obj2ClipBmpData.dispose();
return collides;
}
}
}
And i am calling checkCollision function on a ENTER_FRAME event, the hitTestObject is firing well but the bitmapData Collision is not firing at all.
private function checkCollision():void {
for (var i:int = 0; i < parent.numChildren; i++) {
if (Object(parent.getChildAt(i)).constructor == '[class CollisionTest]') {
if (this.hitTestObject(parent.getChildAt(i))) {
trace('colliding');
if ( _collision.check(Sprite(this),Sprite(parent.getChildAt(i))) ) {
trace('>>>>>>>>>>> perfect hit');
}
}
}
}
}
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
I discarded the previous method of BitmapData Collision that i was trying to implement and downloaded a free library called CDK:
https://code.google.com/p/collisiondetectionkit/
it solved all my problems.

EDIT: When the game starts, the LV1 introduction text starts. Once the scrollV equals maxScrollV, a next buttons appears. Click that, it will delete itself and the game starts. Once you beat stage one, levelNum automatically equals 2 and I add this class again from my main document class. However, it will show the same text over and over, regardless of what level.
So does the urlLoader always stay the same? If so, how can I change it?
URLLoader can be reused to load another data with new URLRequest instance. It is completely OK to reuse same URLLoader instance to load another file. Your problem is not in URLLoader, but in logics or somewhere else. You'd better try debuggers to make sure variable level has correct value of 2.
Why are you loading text file EVERY second? It would be ok to load them only level is changed.
does this textLoader instance have event listeners attached?
:::::::::EDITED:::::::::
You are removing event Listeners from textLoader in clickNext() call. textLoader will load file, but will not run onLoaded() to update textBox.text
Your speechBoxCheck() method is doing it wrong. 1. You must make only 1 load() call in speechBox() method. Your conditionals in the method are not exclusive, and it may cause trouble when multiple load() calls are made (previous loading operation will be canceled). consider "else if" chain.
it is not recommended to do something like loading files in this fashion. Unnecessary I/O operations, especially in runtime, should be avoided. Only load files when it is needed; In this case, it is when level changes.

Correct usage of addtoStage when loading external swf

I am loading an external swf file into a parent swf file.
Previously, I was getting error 1009 and fixed that by using a listener event to add the swf to the stage before running any scripts.
The swf however fails to load completely when embedded into a parent swf as seen in this URL
http://viewer.zmags.com/publication/06b68a69?viewType=pubPreview#/06b68a69/1
Here is the code I am using.

If you still need it you can try these two suggestions. Note I didnt know about Zmags and initially assumed that it was your own domain name. That's why I suggested you use the Loader class. It worked for me when I did a test version of a parent.swf' that loaded a test 'child.swf' containing your code. It actually loaded the child swf without problems.
Change from extending Sprite to extending MovieClip
Avoid checking for added to stage in this project
Explanations:
Extending MovieClip instead of Sprite
I Long story short Flash wont like your swf extending Sprite then being opened by a parent loader that extends Movieclip. The ZMag player will be extending MovieClip. It's logical and the docs do confirm this in a way. Whether it fixes your issue or not just keep it MovieClip when using ZMags.
Avoiding Stage referencing in your code..
Looking at this Zmags Q&A documentaion:
http://community.zmags.com/articles/Knowledgebase/Common-questions-on-flash-integration
Looking at Question 4.. In their answer these two stand out.
Reference of the stage parameter in the uploaded SWF conflicting with the publication
Badly or locally referenced resources in the SWF you uploaded which cannot be found
Is it really necessary to have an added_to_stage check in this? If it wont hurt then I suggest dropping the stage_added checking from function slider5() and instead cut/paste in there the code you have from the function onAddedToStage(e:Event).
Hope it helps.

Multitouch as3 problems

I have a little problem with multitouch in as3.
Recently started a project in connection with my student practice.
This is to be a small game for android.
Are used to control two virtual joysticks and that's the problem with them.
As long as I use one of them or the other separately all works very well. However, when I try to use two at the same time, one of them is blocked and the object which moves begin to move in a random way and I can not control it.
Here is my code:
joystick.as:
package com.controls {
import flash.events.TouchEvent;
import flash.ui.Multitouch;
import flash.ui.MultitouchInputMode;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.geom.Rectangle;
import com.controls.JoystickKnob;
import com.Hero;
import com.Fire;
import com.greensock.*;
import com.greensock.easing.*;
public class Joystick extends MovieClip {
Multitouch.inputMode = MultitouchInputMode.TOUCH_POINT;
private var my_x:Number;
private var my_y:Number;
private var knob:JoystickKnob;
private var hero:Hero;
private var fire:Fire;
private var knob_tween:TweenLite;
public function Joystick(margin_left, margin_bottom, hero_mc) {
var circle:Sprite = new Sprite();
circle.graphics.beginFill(0x696969);
circle.graphics.drawCircle(50, 50, 60);
circle.graphics.endFill();
addChild(circle);
my_x = margin_left;
my_y = margin_bottom;
hero = hero_mc;
if (stage) {
init();
} else {
addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE,init);
}
}
private function init(e:Event = null):void {
if (hasEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE)) {
removeEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE,init);
}
this.x = my_x + this.width / 2;
this.y = stage.stageHeight - my_y - this.height / 2;
knob = new JoystickKnob();
knob.x = 0;
knob.y = 0;
knob.origin_x = 0;
knob.origin_y = 0;
addChild(knob);
this.addEventListener(TouchEvent.TOUCH_BEGIN, onTouchBegin, true);
knob.addEventListener(TouchEvent.TOUCH_MOVE, onTouchMove, true);
stage.addEventListener(TouchEvent.TOUCH_END, onTouchEnd, true);
knob.buttonMode = true;
}
private function onTouchBegin(event:TouchEvent):void {
knob.x = this.mouseX;
knob.y = this.mouseY;
onTouchMove(null);
}
private function onTouchMove(event:TouchEvent):void {
if (knob_tween) {
knob_tween.kill();
}
this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, knobMoved);
knob.startDrag(false, new Rectangle( - this.width /2, - this.height /2, this.width, this.height));
}
private function knobMoved(event:Event):void {
// LEFT OR RIGHT
if (knob.x > 15) {
hero.move_right = true;
hero.move_left = false;
} else if (knob.x < -15) {
hero.move_right = false;
hero.move_left = true;
} else {
hero.move_right = false;
hero.move_left = false;
}
// UP OR DOWN
if (knob.y > 15) {
hero.move_down = true;
hero.move_up = false;
} else if (knob.y < -15) {
hero.move_down = false;
hero.move_up = true;
} else {
hero.move_down = false;
hero.move_up = false;
}
}
private function onTouchEnd(event:TouchEvent):void {
knob.stopDrag();
hero.move_left = false;
hero.move_up = false;
hero.move_right = false;
hero.move_down = false;
if (this.hasEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME)) {
this.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, knobMoved);
}
mover();
}
private function mover():void {
knob_tween = new TweenLite(knob, 0.5, {x: knob.origin_x, y:knob.origin_y, ease:Bounce.easeOut});
}
}
}
joystickKnob.as:
package com.controls {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
public class JoystickKnob extends MovieClip {
private var _origin_x:Number;
private var _origin_y:Number;
private var knob:Class;
public function JoystickKnob() {
var circle:Sprite = new Sprite();
circle.graphics.beginFill(0x32CD32);
circle.graphics.drawCircle(50, 50, 35);
circle.graphics.endFill();
addChild(circle);
}
public function get origin_x():Number {
return _origin_x;
}
public function set origin_x(o_x:Number):void {
_origin_x = o_x;
}
public function get origin_y():Number {
return _origin_x;
}
public function set origin_y(o_y:Number):void {
_origin_y = o_y;
}
}
}
Second joystick code looks the same, except that it is stored in files joystick2.as, joystickKnob2.as.
This is the main class of my program:
package com {
import flash.events.TouchEvent;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import com.controls.Joystick;
import com.controls.Joystick2;
import com.Hero;
import com.Fire;
public class MyApp extends MovieClip {
private var joystick:Joystick;
private var hero:Hero;
private var joystick2:Joystick2;
private var fire:Fire;
public function MyApp() {
hero = new Hero();
hero.x = stage.stageWidth/1.7;
hero.y = stage.stageHeight/1.7;
addChild(hero);
fire = new Fire();
fire.x = stage.stageWidth/1.7;
fire.y = stage.stageHeight/1.7;
addChild(fire);
joystick = new Joystick(-350, 100, hero);
addChild(joystick);
joystick2 = new Joystick2(600, 100, fire);
addChild(joystick2);
}
}
}
When using the two joysticks at the same time, the problem also occurs with the knob graphics - instead move in a specific area, one of them almost always moves to the other end of the screen, near the area of the second joystick.
Has anyone of you already encountered such a problem and knows how to remedy it?
Best regards and thank you in advance for your help
Multitouch.inputMode = MultitouchInputMode.TOUCH_POINT; does not support multiple fingers as written in de documentation:
For user interaction with multiple points of contact (such as several fingers moving across a touch screen at the same time) use the related GestureEvent, PressAndTapGestureEvent, and TransformGestureEvent classes. And, use the properties and methods of these classes to construct event handlers that respond to the user touching the device.
so you want Multitouch.inputMode = MultitouchInputMode.GESTURE;
This post shows up when searching for info on touch_point so I want to make sure it's correct.
TOUCH_POINT does support multiple touch points. Each touch is unique and given a unique id. You can have 100s of simultaneous touches.
TOUCH_POINT is what you use if you want to code your own touch handlers. GESTURE is TOUCH_POINTs handled for you. GESTURE decides if the touchpoints are swiping, tapping, etc. TOUCH_POINT is like a mouse event - the raw event.
