I'm trying to figure out how to reference the class of a target. Here is some of the code:
xmlDoc = new XML(xmlLoader.data);
//trace(xmlDoc.Video[1].Desc);
for (var i:int = 0; i < xmlDoc.Video.length(); i++)
{
xmlObj = new FilmVideo(xmlDoc.Video[i].Name, xmlDoc.Video[i].title, xmlDoc.Video[i].Thumb, xmlDoc.Video[i].URL, xmlDoc.Video[i].APILoader);
XMLItem[i] = xmlObj;
//trace(XMLItem);
MovieClip(root).main_mc.thumb_mc.addChild(XMLItem[i]);
if (i <= 0) {
XMLItem[i].x = 20;
XMLItem[i].y = 0;
} else if (i > 0){
XMLItem[i].x = XMLItem[i-1].x + XMLItem[i-1].width + 120;
XMLItem[i].y = 0;
}
XMLItem[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, makeThumbClick);
XMLItem[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, makeThumbRollOver);
XMLItem[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, makeThumbRollOut);
}
}
function makeThumbClick(e:MouseEvent)
{
//var myFilmVideo:FilmVideo = FilmVideo(e.target);
MovieClip(root).main_mc.play();
trace(FilmVideo(e.target));
/MovieClip(root).main_mc.theater_mc.videoLoader(FilmVideo(e.target)._APILoad, FilmVideo(e.target)._videoURL);
}
The XMLItem is an array that's storing a class object I custom made (the class name is FilmVideo based off movieclip). The _thumbToMC is a method within my custom class that returns a movieclip. The class has info stored within its properties I would like to pass through a function called in the makeThumbClick function. However, I have no idea how. e.target reference the _thumbToMC movieclip rather than the class. I do I reference the class? Thank you in advance :)
Here is the class:
package filmvideo
{
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
public class FilmVideo extends MovieClip
{
public var _nameXML:String = "";
public var _title:String = "";
public var _thumbURL:URLRequest;
public var _videoURL:URLRequest;
public var _APILoad:String = "";
public var loader:Loader = new Loader();
public function FilmVideo(name:String, title:String, thumbURL:String, videoURL:String, APILoad:String)
{
_nameXML = name;
_title = title;
_thumbURL = new URLRequest(thumbURL);
_videoURL = new URLRequest(videoURL);
_APILoad = APILoad;
//trace(_name);
//trace(_title);
//trace(thumbURL);
//trace(videoURL);
//trace(_APILoad);
this.addChild(loader);
loader.load(_thumbURL);
}
}
}
You could simplify your class to:
package filmvideo
{
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
public class FilmVideo extends MovieClip
{
public var _nameXML:String = "";
public var _title:String = "";
public var _thumbURL:URLRequest;
public var _videoURL:URLRequest;
public var _APILoad:String = "";
public var loader:Loader = new Loader();
public function FilmVideo(name:String, title:String, thumbURL:String, videoURL:String, APILoad:String)
{
_nameXML = name;
_title = title;
_thumbURL = new URLRequest(thumbURL);
_videoURL = new URLRequest(videoURL);
_APILoad = APILoad;
//trace(_name);
//trace(_title);
//trace(thumbURL);
//trace(videoURL);
//trace(_APILoad);
this.addChild(loader);
loader.load(_thumbURL);
}
}
}
Then you can use FilmVideo as a MovieClip (since it extends the MovieClip class).
And use 'currentTarget' instead of 'target', because it always points to the listened object, while 'target' points to the object which fired the event. more info here
xmlDoc = new XML(xmlLoader.data);
//trace(xmlDoc.Video[1].Desc);
for (var i:int = 0; i < xmlDoc.Video.length(); i++)
{
xmlObj = new FilmVideo(xmlDoc.Video[i].Name, xmlDoc.Video[i].title, xmlDoc.Video[i].Thumb, xmlDoc.Video[i].URL, xmlDoc.Video[i].APILoader);
XMLItem[i] = xmlObj;
//trace(XMLItem);
Object(root).main_mc.thumb_mc.addChild(XMLItem[i]);
if (i <= 0) {
XMLItem[i].x = 20;
XMLItem[i].y = 0;
} else if (i > 0){
XMLItem[i].x = XMLItem[i-1].x + XMLItem[i-1].width + 120;
trace(XMLItem[i].width);
XMLItem[i].y = 0;
}
XMLItem[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, makeThumbClick);
XMLItem[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, makeThumbRollOver);
XMLItem[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, makeThumbRollOut);
}
function makeThumbClick(e:MouseEvent)
{
//var myFilmVideo:FilmVideo = FilmVideo(e.target);
MovieClip(root).main_mc.play();
trace(myFilmVideo._APILoad);
MovieClip(root).main_mc.theater_mc.videoLoader(FilmVideo(e.currentTarget)._APILoad, FilmVideo(e.currentTarget)._videoURL);
}
If you don't want to do this way
Add a reference (inside the class) to the _thumbToMC back to it's FilmVideo object.
_thumbMC._filmVideo = this;
Then:
function makeThumbClick(e:MouseEvent)
{
//var myFilmVideo:FilmVideo = FilmVideo(e.target);
MovieClip(root).main_mc.play();
MovieClip(root).main_mc.theater_mc.videoLoader(MovieClip(e.currentTarget)._filmVideo._APILoad, MovieClip(e.currentTarget)._filmVideo._videoURL);
}
I'm not 100% sure I understand the question, but assuming you want to retrieve the properties of the FilmVideo instance (which it appears the user is clicking on) then maybe this is what you are looking for;
function makeThumbClick(e:MouseEvent){
var myFilmVideo:FilmVideo = FilmVideo(e.target);
// access properties of _thumbToMC
myFilmVideo.randomproperty = 123;
}

This is in the main class
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;
public class main extends MovieClip {
public var scene = 0;
public var _money = 0;
public var gain = 1;
public var clicks = 0;
public function main() {
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, loop);
mainbtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, handler);
playbtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playHandler);
}
var mainbtn:button = new button();
var playbtn:playbutton = new playbutton();
var playtxt:playtext = new playtext();
var cash:money_txt = new money_txt();
var scene0:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
var scene1:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
public function loop(e:Event):void {
if(scene == 0) {
addChild(scene0)
scene0.addChild(playbtn);
playbtn.x = 300;
playbtn.y = 200;
scene0.addChild(playtxt);
playtxt.x = 300;
playtxt.y = 100;
} else {
scene0.removeChild(playbtn);
scene0.removeChild(playtxt);
}
if(scene == 1) {
addChild(scene1);
scene1.addChild(mainbtn);
mainbtn.x = 300;
mainbtn.y = 200;
scene1.addChild(cash);
cash.text = 'Money: ' + _money.toString();
} else {
scene1.removeChild(mainbtn);
}
}
public function playclickHandler(e:MovieClip) {
scene = 1;
}
public function handler(e:MouseEvent):void {
_money += gain;
clicks++;
trace('yep');
}
public function playHandler(e:MouseEvent):void {
scene = 1;
}
}
}
And This is where the error would be
C:\Users\Slime\Desktop\Art-ish\game\main.as, Line 47, Column 10 1119: Access of possibly undefined property text through a reference with static type money_txt.
Thanks for helping if you can!
these should be defined as public
public var mainbtn:button = new button();
public var playbtn:playbutton = new playbutton();
public var playtxt:playtext = new playtext();
public var cash:money_txt = new money_txt();
public var scene0:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
public var scene1:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
also it is hard to tell if money_txt, playtext, playbutton and button are classes or MovieClip instances. Convention dictates that Classes should start with a capital letter and instances with lower.
update
The issue is that if button and playbutton are buttons and playtext and money_txt are MovieClips, you should instantiate them as such.
for example if you have
public var mainbtn:button = new button();
but there is no class with name of button, mainbtn will be null. What you may need to do is
public var mainbtn:Button;
public var cash:MovieClip;
and as a part of your main or some other function, assign the instances
mainbtn = this['button'];
cash = this['money_txt'];
you can check if this worked by checking trace(cash);, which will return null if the assignment did not work.
I should stress again though, it is hard to to know what exactly is going wrong without knowing what your setup is. I'm assuming money_txt and the other classes you are defining are not actually classes with their own linkage IDs, but buttons and movieclips inside the MovieClip or stage you are putting this code in.
i separated one big file into multiple file to have it cleaned and i got a problem now.
I have my main.as, character.as, camera.as.
What i'm trying to do is access a variable from another class which i set later on that class. Ill show you what i mean.
From my main.as im loading each class and add them as child so it get displayed on screen.
public function buildGame()
{
var loadMap:Sprite = new nf_MapBuilder();
var xChar:Sprite = new nf_Character();
var xCam:Sprite = new nf_Camera();
var UserControl:nf_UserControl = new nf_UserControl();
addChild(loadMap);
addChild(xChar);
addChild(xCam);
addChild(UserControl);
}
Everything show on screen like it needed. Then it goes to my character.as:
package as3
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;
public class nf_Character extends Sprite
{
public var character_pos:Array = new Array();
public var character_is_moving:Boolean = false;
public var character_x_dir:int = 0;
public var character_y_dir:int = 0;
public var character:hero = new hero();
public function nf_Character()
{
addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE,xCharLoad);
}
public function xCharLoad(e:Event)
{
character_pos = [2,2];
character.x=64*(character_pos[1]);
character.y=64*(character_pos[0]);
addChild(character);
}
}
}
There is the problem. I need to use those variable i set there in my character.as to use it in my camera.as:
package as3
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.geom.Rectangle;
import flash.display.StageScaleMode;
import as3.nf_Character;
public class nf_Camera extends Sprite
{
private var xChar:nf_Character = new nf_Character();
//Camera variables
var stageW2:Number;
var stageH2:Number;
var view:Rectangle;
public function nf_Camera()
{
addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE,xCamGo);
}
public function xCamGo(e:Event):void
{
trace("Camera pos - " + xChar.x + " " + xChar.character.y);
view = new Rectangle(0,0,stage.stageWidth,stage.stageHeight)
stageW2 = stage.stageWidth / 2 - 32;
stageH2 = stage.stageHeight / 2 - 32;
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,CamView);
}
public function CamView(e:Event):void
{
view.x = xChar.character.x - stageW2;
view.y = xChar.character.y - stageH2;
scrollRect = view;
}
}
}
When it was all in one big file it was ok i just had to set the variable in the class and acessing it trough every function but now im kinda confused. Anyone see how i could do this?
In short, I think you should subscribe to an event from your character in your main class which is fired whenever the character moves. In the handler for that event you could call a method on the camera to set it's position according to the current position of the character.
main.as
private var xChar:Sprite = new nf_Character();
private var xCam:Sprite = new nf_Camera();
public function buildGame()
{
var loadMap:Sprite = new nf_MapBuilder();
var UserControl:nf_UserControl = new nf_UserControl();
// listen for when the character has moved
xChar.addEventListener(MoveEvent.MOVED, characterMovedHandler);
addChild(loadMap);
addChild(xChar);
addChild(xCam);
addChild(UserControl);
}
private function characterMovedHandler(event:MoveEvent):void
{
xCam.setPosition(xChar.x, xChar.y);
}
nf_Character.as
public class nf_Character extends Sprite
{
public var character_pos:Array = new Array();
public var character_is_moving:Boolean = false;
public var character_x_dir:int = 0;
public var character_y_dir:int = 0;
public var character:hero = new hero();
public function nf_Character()
{
addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE,xCharLoad);
}
public function xCharLoad(e:Event)
{
character_pos = [2,2];
character.x=64*(character_pos[1]);
character.y=64*(character_pos[0]);
addChild(character);
}
public function xCharMoved()
{
// Dispatch a custom event when the character moves
dispatchEvent(new MovedEvent(MovedEvent.MOVED));
}
}
nf_Camera.as
public class nf_Camera extends Sprite
{
private var xChar:nf_Character = new nf_Character();
//Camera variables
var stageW2:Number;
var stageH2:Number;
var view:Rectangle;
public function nf_Camera()
{
addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE,xCamGo);
}
public function xCamGo(e:Event):void
{
trace("Camera pos - " + xChar.x + " " + xChar.character.y);
view = new Rectangle(0,0,stage.stageWidth,stage.stageHeight)
stageW2 = stage.stageWidth / 2 - 32;
stageH2 = stage.stageHeight / 2 - 32;
// Probably only need one enterframe either in your character class or main
//addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,CamView);
}
public function setPosition(x:Number, y:Number):void
{
view.x = xChar.character.x - stageW2;
view.y = xChar.character.y - stageH2;
scrollRect = view;
}
}
Out of interest, how are you moving the character?
You can pass your character class instance to your camera class instance as an argument of the constructor. You will then have a reference to the character inside the camera class and you can access it's variables
// Inside buildGame() in main.
var xChar:nf_Character = new nf_Character();
var xCam:nf_Camera = new nf_Camera(xChar);
// Inside nf_Camera
public function nf_Camera(char:nf_Character) {
xChar = char;
}
I need to make a calendar in AS3 that looks like this regularly:
and this when a date is clicked:
I have the basics down, I think but I don't know where to go from here and I cannot figure out what is wrong with my code to make the days work properly.
Main Code:
package code {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
public class Main extends MovieClip {
private var days:Array = new Array();
public var selectedDay:Day = null;
public function Main() {
// constructor code
var across: int = 7;
for( var i:int = 0; i < 31; i++)
{
var row:int = Math.floor( i / across );
var col:int = i % across;
var d:Day = new Day();
addChild(d);
d.x = col * (d.width);
d.y = row * (d.height);
days.push(d);
d.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
}
}
public function onClick(e:MouseEvent):void{
if (selectedDay == null){
trace("meow!");
days[1].gotoAndStop(2);
}
else if (selectedDay != null){
}
}
}
}
and the Day code:
package code {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.text.TextField;
public class Day extends MovieClip {
public var weekday_txt:TextField;
public var date_txt:TextField;
public function Day() {
// constructor code
for (var num:int = 0; num < 7; num++){
var weekDays:Array = new Array("Sun","Mon","Tue","Wed","Thu","Fri","Sat");
weekday_txt.text = weekDays[num];
//trace(weekDays[num]);
date_txt.text = ""+42;
}
}
}
}
Thanks for any help!
I rewrote your classes as it is easier than trying to explain the logical errors:
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
public class Main extends MovieClip{
private var days:Array = new Array();
private var selectedDay:Day;
public function Main() {
stop();
days = new Array();
var weekDayTitles:Array = new Array("Sun","Mon","Tue","Wed","Thu","Fri","Sat");
var across:int = 7;
for (var i:int=0; i<31; i++){
var row:int=Math.floor(i/across);
var col:int = i%7;
var d:Day = new Day();
addChild(d);
d.x = col * (d.width);
d.y = row * (d.height);
d.setWeekDay(weekDayTitles[col]);
d.setDate(""+(i+1));
days.push(d);
d.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
}
}
public function onClick(e:MouseEvent):void{
if (selectedDay != null){
selectedDay.setAsUnSelected();
}
selectedDay = Day(e.target);
selectedDay.setAsSelected();
}
}// Class
And your Day class should look like this:
// make sure this class is linked to a movieclip
// in your library that has two frames
// frame 1 = "unselected"
// frame 2 = "selected";
// make sure to have 2 textfields in the linked symbol, one named : "weekdayTxt" and the other "dateTxt"
public class Day extends MovieClip{
public var weekday_txt:TextField;
public var date_txt:TextField;
public function Day() {
gotoAndStop(1);
weekday_txt = this.weekdayTxt;
date_txt = this.dateTxt;
}
public function setWeekDay(_day:String):void{
weekday_txt.text = _day;
}
public function setDate(_date:String):void{
day_txt.text = _date;
}
public function setAsSelected():void{
this.gotoAndStop(2);
}
public function setAsUnSelected():void{
this.gotoAndStop(1);
}
}// Class
Well, I think you do have the jist of it, but I notice that your onClick method is always targetting the second day of the array and setting it to goto frame 2, since it doesn't look like you ever initialize "selectedDay"...:
public function onClick(e:MouseEvent):void{
if (selectedDay == null){
trace("meow!");
days[1].gotoAndStop(2);
}
else if (selectedDay != null){
}
}
it might help to change the function to:
public function onClick(e:MouseEvent):void{
if (selectedDay != null){
selectedDay.gotoAndStop(1); //assuming frame 1 is an "unselected" state
} // you don't really need an else, if you are not going to do anything in it
selectedDay = e.target;
selectedDay.gotoAndStop(2);
}
public function getSelectedDayInfo():Object{
var _object = new Object();
_object.weekday = "nothing selected";
_object.date = "nothing selected";
if(selectedDay != null){
_object.weekday = selectedDay.weekday_txt.text;
_object.date = selectedDay.date_txt.text;
}
return (_object);
}
Hope that helps...
I have a simple problem which is not easy at the moment. this is a text field class which add a text field to a movieclip (passed from root class) and also save(buffer) some data (like xml file name) in it`s public variables:
package src {
import flash.display.Shape;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.text.TextField;
import flash.text.TextFieldAutoSize;
import flash.text.TextFormat;
public class menuitem00 extends Shape {
public var activateFlag:Boolean = false;
public var name00:String = "";
public var xml00:String = "";
public var txt00:TextField = new TextField();
private var OM:MovieClip;
private var id00:Number = 0;
public function menuitem00(n:int ,OE:MovieClip ,xmlf:String):void {
trace (" Text Field Object with buffer ");
OM = OE; id00 = n; xml00 = xmlf;
}
public function init():void{
// textfield
txt00.selectable = false;
txt00.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
txt00.defaultTextFormat = new TextFormat("Impact", 36,0x66AAFF);
txt00.text = name00;
txt00.border = true;
txt00.borderColor = 0x00FF00;
txt00.sharpness = 100;
txt00.x = 0;
txt00.y = (id00 * txt00.height) + 1;
txt00.z = 0;
OM.addChild(txt00);
}
}
}
.. now I use a for loop to add instance of that class to a movie clip on stage:
for (var i:int = 0; i<Bunker[0]["trans0size"]; i++) {
menuData[i] = new menuitem00(i, menu_mc, Bunker[0]["transfile0" + i]);// pass i , a movieclip named menu_mc and an xml file name
menuData[i].name00 = Bunker[0]["transtitle0" + i]; // pass text
menuData[i].activateFlag = true; // set actveFlag to true
menuData[i].init(); // run init() inside the instance. it adds textfield to the menu_mc and also set name00 as Text for the textField
}
also I add mouse event for clicking on the stage,
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clk, false, 0, true);
public function clk(evt:MouseEvent):void{ //// mouse
trace (" Name: " + evt.target.text);
//trace (evt.target.xml00);
}
HERE IS MY PROBLEM --> I want to get "xml00" var from that instance on the stage by mouse click but, trace (evt.target.xml00); is not working .. also trace (evt.target.name00); is not working. I can get everything like .alpha or .text from txt00 but not other variables in my object. Any idea ?
don't add the click-listener to the STAGE but to you object.
menuData[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clk, ...);
and add the following line to your menuitem00 class:
this.mouseChildren = false;
so you can be sure that the evt.target is an object of this class and not a child (like the textfield or something else).
edit
if you want to keep the stage-listener, try this:
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clk, ...);
private function clk (evt:MouseEvent):void
{
if (evt.currentTarget is menuitem00)
{
var item:menuitem00 = evt.currentTarget as menuitem00;
trace(item.xml00); // or any other public variable
}
}
but still add the mouseChildren = false; to your class.
edit2
make the menuitem00 class a sprite (and rename it pls):
public class MenuItem extends Sprite {
private var _activateFlag:Boolean;
private var _xml:String;
private var _txt:TextField;
private var _id:Number;
public function MenuItem (n:int, xmlf:String) {
trace (" Text Field Object with buffer ");
_id = n;
_xml = xmlf;
_activeFlag = true;
this.mouseChildren = false;
// create txt
_txt = new TextField();
// do the formating here ...
this.addChild(_txt);
}
public function getXml():String {
return _xml;
}
}
in the for loop you would do sth like this:
for (var i:int = 0; i<Bunker[0]["trans0size"]; i++) {
var item:MenuItem = new MenuItem(i, Bunker[0]["transfile0" + i]);
item.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clk, false, 0, true);
menu_mc.addChild(item);
menuData[i] = item;
}
private function clk (evt:MouseEvent):void {
var item:MenuItem = evt.target as MenuItem;
if (item != null) {
trace(item.getXml()); // use a getter and don't access the variable directly
}
}
and pls re-read your actionscript (or programming) books, you're doing some really bad things i your code that you shouldn't.
I have the following problem when I try to use TweenLite with a Bitmap:
I get strange error messages when applying TweenLite to a Bitmap (tempScore.bitmap). GetBounds works. The bitmap has transparency. Does anyone have an idea why it doesn't work? Any help appreciated. Thanks.:)
When using a getBounds-Method I get this:
tempScore.bitmap.getBounds(this)(x=2.35, y=-0.45, w=25, h=18)
This is the error message:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at com.greensock.plugins::TransformAroundPointPlugin/onInitTween()
at com.greensock.plugins::TransformAroundCenterPlugin/onInitTween()
at com.greensock::TweenLite/init()
at com.greensock::TweenLite/renderTime()
at com.greensock.core::SimpleTimeline/renderTime()
at com.greensock::TweenLite$/updateAll()
My imported and activated libraries look like this:
import com.greensock.*;
import com.greensock.TweenLite;
import com.greensock.plugins.TweenPlugin;
import com.greensock.plugins.TransformAroundCenterPlugin;
import com.greensock.plugins.TransformAroundPointPlugin;
import com.greensock.easing.*;
import com.greensock.plugins.AutoAlphaPlugin;
import com.greensock.plugins.ColorTransformPlugin;
import com.greensock.plugins.ColorMatrixFilterPlugin;
TweenPlugin.activate([TransformAroundCenterPlugin, TransformAroundPointPlugin, ColorTransformPlugin,
ColorMatrixFilterPlugin]);
This is the part where I try to use TweenLite on my tempScore:
var scoreTextLength:int = scoreManager.scores.length - 1;
for (var counter:int = scoreTextLength; counter >= 0; counter--)
{
tempScore = scoreManager.scores[counter];
tempScore.startDelay = true;
TweenLite.to(tempScore.bitmap, 2, {transformAroundCenter: {scale:2}});
trace("tempScore.bitmap.getBounds(this)" + tempScore.bitmap.getBounds(this));
if (tempScore.update())
{
disposeScore(counter);
}
}
So far as I can see the getBounds-values are ok. My game is based on a gameframework. There's a renderer inside of it.
Call me an idiot if I'm wrong but is it possible that the renderer of the framework and tweenlite are getting in each other's way??
TweenLite has problems with other similar objects like tempAsteroid. A lot of objects are drawn onto a canvas with copyPixels (blitting-method).
tempScore is a Score-object. The Score object is based on a BasicBlitArrayObject. Otherwise this object extends an EventDispatcher. I hope this little info helps.
This is the scoreManager which manages the look and properties of tempScore:
package com.cosmicward.src.classes
{
import flash.display.*;
import flash.text.*;
import flash.geom.*;
import com.framework_mod.src.BlitArrayAsset;

I think the problem is simple, but the resolution is not. The objects you are trying to transform are blitted. So they are not added to the stage. So the object's stage property is null.
I suspect that the TransformAroundPoint plugin is trying to use the object's stage property, and that is throwing a null object error your are seeing.
To see a simple example of this, make a very simple file.
Create two bitmaps, add one to the stage, and don't add the other.
Apply the tween to the stage instance, it will work.
Then apply the tween to the off-stage instance, and you should get the same error you get in the game.
What you will need to do instead is handle the transform yourself. Instead of using TweenLite to rotate around a point, do it yourself.
Fortunately Stack Overflow already has a great thread on that topic!
Rotate around a point that is not (0,0)
