I am using this code and getting the Error Message "1180: Call to a possibly undefined method DirectBlock." At Source: "block = new DirectBlock(lvlArray[i],(i-row*22)*25,row*25);"

Off course, you got no class called DirectBlock and your class EmptyBlock has no parameters in the constructor (in case you wanted to use the second class and not the first).
I'm trying to take this very simple "game" and give it three save/load slots. Following a separate tutorial I can make it work with a single save slot but once I try adding more, it gives me the following error message.
1046:Type was not found or was not compile-time constant: save2.
1046:Type was not found or was not compile-time constant: save3.
I am new to actionscript 3 so I'm sure I'm being very newbish but I have tried to figure this out for quite some time now but just can't seem to. The whole thing is controlled by buttons already placed on the scene. I appreciate any help I can get.
The code:
import flash.net.SharedObject;
var saveDataObject:SharedObject;
var currentScore:Number = 0
init();
function init():void{
btnAdd.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, addScore);
btnSave1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, save1);
btnSave1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, saveData);
btnSave2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, save2);
btnSave2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, saveData);
btnSave3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, save3);
btnSave3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, saveData);
btnLoad1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, save1);
btnLoad1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, loadData);
btnLoad2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, save2);
btnLoad2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, loadData);
btnLoad3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, save3);
btnLoad3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, loadData);
}
function save1(e:MouseEvent):void{
saveDataObject = SharedObject.getLocal("savefile1");
}
function save2(e:MouseEvent):void{
saveDataObject = SharedObject.getLocal("savefile2");
}
function save3(e:MouseEvent):void{
saveDataObject = SharedObject.getLocal("savefile3");
}
function addScore(e:MouseEvent):void{
currentScore += 1;
updateScoreText();
}
function saveData(e:MouseEvent):void{
saveDataObject.data.savedScore = currentScore;
trace("Data Saved!");
saveDataObject.flush();
trace(saveDataObject.size);
}
function loadData(e:MouseEvent):void{
currentScore = saveDataObject.data.savedScore;
updateScoreText();
trace("Data Loaded!");
}
function updateScoreText():void
{
txtScore.text = ("Score: " + currentScore);
trace("Score text updated");
}
I tried your code and it works like a charm...
Anyways, I've made a simpler version that doesn't use so many functions and Events.
Here is a pure AS3 version of it (just save it as Test.as3 and use as Document Class in Flash), but you can copy the content of the Test() method and paste in a action frame.

i have a problem with my as3 code,
i try to link a movie clip to different scene (quiz scene).
so,i have 2 quiz in total, first quiz is using external script (as)
And the second quiz have the same script like first quiz, but i placed the action script inside fla. and it had different xml.
but then this error message appeared:

the first quiz played perfectly with that code,
and i have no clue why this error appeared,
i'm beginner in as3 so i'm still lack in many ways,
can anyone help me,?
i really apreciate it.. :)
Are you sure that you're parsing a non-null TextFormat instance as the second argument of createText()?
The error means that you're supplying a null value for tf:TextFormat.
Unless I am missing something, your issue is here:
messageField2 = createText("Loading Questions...",questionFormat,gameSprite,0,50,550);
&
messageField = createText("Tap Untuk Memulai",scoreFormat,gameSprite,-10,250,500);
I see questionFormat2 and scoreFormat2 are instantiated, but I never see a questionFormat or scoreFormat. Your error says that the defaultTextFormat (or TextFormat supplied using setTextFormat(), for future reference), cannot be null. Null means that the object has not been instantiated/created yet. questionFormat and scoreFormat are never instantiated. Hell, their variables do not even exist. If you were using a proper development IDE (FlashBuilder, FlashDevelop, etc), you'd never be able to compile this code.
Switch those two lines to use the correct formats and you should be fine.
NEW MESSAGE - THE SOLUTION I ENDED UP APPLYING
This is what I used to load an external image into a movie clip and drag and drop.
The feedback part is pretty much the same from the old code.
var holdermc_Arr:Array = new Array(4);
for(var i:uint = 0; i < holdermc_Arr.length; i++)
{
holdermc_Arr[i] = this["panel" + (i+1) + "_mc"];
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var fileRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("images/" + (i+1) + ".jpg");
myLoader.load(fileRequest);
holdermc_Arr[i].addChild(myLoader);
holdermc_Arr[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, pickUp);
holdermc_Arr[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);
holdermc_Arr[i].buttonMode = true;
}
var startX:Number;
var startY:Number;
var counter:Number = 0;
function pickUp(event:MouseEvent):void {
startX = event.currentTarget.x;
startY = event.currentTarget.y;
setChildIndex(MovieClip(event.currentTarget),numChildren-1);
event.currentTarget.startDrag();
reply_txt.text = "";
}
OLD MESSAGE BELLOW
This is my latest attempt with the current error I am getting.
I actually would like to work with the code of my previous attempt because to me is easier that way to add multiple draggable movie clips.
But whichever the code, what seems to be the fundamental problem is that I am not setting up the property correctly for the "Loader".
Let me know if a link to the example is needed.
The error is the following:
ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property dropTarget not found on
flash.display.Loader and there is no default value. at
cs5test_fla::MainTimeline/ReleaseToDrop()
The code is the following
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
panel1_mc.addChild(myLoader);
var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("uploadedImages/photo_1.jpeg");
myLoader.load(url);
var startX:Number;
var startY:Number;
var counter:Number = 0;
panel1_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, ClickToDrag);
function ClickToDrag(event:MouseEvent):void
{
panel1_mc.startDrag();
startX = event.target.x;
startY = event.target.y;
reply_txt.text = "";
event.target.parent.addChild(event.target);
}
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, ReleaseToDrop);
function ReleaseToDrop(event:MouseEvent):void
{
panel1_mc.stopDrag();
var myTargetName:String = "target" + event.target.name;
var myTarget:DisplayObject = getChildByName(myTargetName);
if (event.target.dropTarget != null && event.target.dropTarget.parent == myTarget){
reply_txt.text = "Good Job!";
event.target.x = myTarget.x;
event.target.y = myTarget.y;
event.target.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, ClickToDrag);
event.target.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, ReleaseToDrop);
event.target.buttonMode = false;
counter++;
} else {

event.target.x = startX;
event.target.y = startY;

OLDER MESSAGE BELLOW
I am still struggling.
I am new to all this so I am really tying the best I can to grasp it.
The ActionScript I am trying to work with is all the way at the bottom.
I'd really appreciate if someone tries to look at this code and tell me how can I load external images to each draggable movie clip with out getting the following error.
ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property startDrag not found on
flash.display.Loader and there is no default value. at
dragdropDilema_fla::MainTimeline/pickUp() ReferenceError: Error #1069:
Property stopDrag not found on flash.display.Loader and there is no
default value. at dragdropDilema_fla::MainTimeline/dropIt()
I tried to use a simple var loader but for what I can see on the error, I have to set up the startDrag property to work with the Loaded image and not with the draggable movie clips that are currently in place??
I thought I would have just been simple if I had use the following for each:
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
imageHolder.addChild(myLoader);
var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("uploadedImages/photo_1.jpeg");
myLoader.load(url);
and then do something like:
square_mc.imageHolder.addChild(myLoader);
but when I do that I get the error anyway when I click on the image.
Here is the entire code: It is supposed to count when the object meet their target and gives a message all through out and at the end.
panel1_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, pickUp);
panel1_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);
panel1_mc.buttonMode = true;
var startX:Number;
var startY:Number;
var counter:Number = 0;
function pickUp(event:MouseEvent):void {
startX = event.target.x;
startY = event.target.y;
event.target.startDrag(true);
reply_txt.text = "";
event.target.parent.addChild(event.target);
}
function dropIt(event:MouseEvent):void {
event.target.stopDrag();
var myTargetName:String = "target" + event.target.name;
var myTarget:DisplayObject = getChildByName(myTargetName);
if (event.target.dropTarget != null && event.target.dropTarget.parent == myTarget){
reply_txt.text = "Good Job!";
event.target.x = myTarget.x;
event.target.y = myTarget.y;
event.target.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, pickUp);
event.target.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);
event.target.buttonMode = false;

event.target.y = startY;
