Need A Person To Write Simple Array For Me.
Don't think im dumb are anything but i need someone to write a simple array for me though all my actionscripting ive never had to do it before and I really dont have the time to learn now. Let me descirbe what has to be done really simple and then ill send you a test dummy to add the code to. The game this is for is almost completed and is one of my best creations yet.
Description:
My game consists of thousands of hit tests that all work together to stop the unit from running though small objects. (mostly alot of trees and walls).
I know nothing about arrays. Heres the simple hit test all you have to do is make the number after T everynumber possible.
if (this, hitTest(_root.world.T+[i])) {
okay if you accept this job you will be included in the Credits. The file is attached, when done send it to (with the name you want to be known as under the credits):

Simple Question? Write To Array In Parent?
I've got a movie that loads in an external swf into a movie clip. I need to be able to write items into the array in the main clip from the sub-clip...I thought it would be simple, but it doesn't seem to be working??

I'm using:

in the parent movie I create the array:

Code:
var aImages:Array = new Array(); aImages.push({image:"img1", fileLoc:""});
in the nested movie I use:

Code:
_parent.aImages[0].fileLoc == "test";

but when I trace it in the following line, it shows me what I push in from the parent, but not what I set in the nested clip??!!

Code:
trace("array "+_parent.aImages[0].fileLoc);

Thanks!!

Simple Questions From A Simple Person
Hi all...

I am new to flash... The only actionscript I have actionally used is "stop ();" Anyway... I'm using flash cs3... It seems a fantastic tool to a newcomer like me!! Firstly, I'll show you what I've managed to do so far...

This is my first movie...
http://www.allnationschessleague.com...tpagewhite.swf

An this is the header I would like to put at the top of the website pages:
http://www.allnationschessleague.com...ANCLHeader.swf

Well, my first question (for I am sure to return to this site for more advice, is how do I link the flags at the top, to the relevant pages. Please check out the following page to see how it should work:
http://www.allnationschessleague.com
So as you can see, the flash needs to link to php pages... for example the British flag needs to link to 'setlanguage.php?lang=en' etc... so how do I set those links for the flags?

Thank you for answering my post )

Simple Question For Dumbfounded Person
How do you check the paths in a directory?

I've followed the VERY LONG tutorial in the forums regarding the resizing slideshow. I finally found one that suited my needs (made by vman) however, the images do not load when I uploaded the phps the swf and the images. Everything is correct in terms of its lay out

in the root director I have the phps and the swf
in a folder within the root directory, called "Arrar" images are kept there where they are properly named.

However the images REFUSE TO LOAD. I'm not sure if this has to do with my actionscript, the script within the php files or my paths which I don't know how to check are correct. I have attached everything except my images SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!@

20 Bucks To The First Person Who Can Help Me With This Simple Problem.
hi there,

My name is brandon. i have this website with a flash JOIN MAILING LIST FORM. Here is the link:http://www.brandonparis.com/upload/N...submission.fla
.its very simple it just has a email input line with a variable name "YMLPO" <--that name is a must. then there is one submit button.

when you enter your email address and press submit, your email address should be sent to this MAILING LIST PROVIDER (called YLMP a mailing list company provider) which logs into my account then enters the email address. unfortunately it does not. and im very sure its because the action script does not tell it to send the variable line(named "YMLPO"which is the email input) to enter on the site.

below is the fla. i took everything else out except the form so its simple as hell. just try entering your email address and press submit. it will say" you forgot to enter your email address"

here is what i have in the action scrip so far:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

on (release) {
getURL("http://www.ymlp.com/subscribe.php?brandonparis", "_blank");
}

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
the part that says "brandonparis" is my account. it logs in properly but the email deosn't get entered becasue as you can see there is nothing that tells it to in the actionscript.

***here is a link to an HTML version which works perfectly when you enter your email and press submit. this may help you with figuring how to make the FLASH version work. http://www.brandonparis.com/upload/testformHTML.htm

who ever figures this out i will pay them 20 bucks. just give me a link to your paypal or give me your address which i can send you a money order. this is so important i get this fixed.

thank you all so kindly

Brandon

ps also here is my email addres : info@brandonparis.com can you please email and let me know that you solved my problem. thank you so much! you can use my email address to give me your mailing address for me to send you a money order providing that you actually solved the problem. if for soem reason it took you much longer than you thought i may be willing to pay you more.

Just Need One Knowledgeble Person To Answer A Seemingly Simple Question For Me...
I have a button that uses loadVariables to bring a txt file into a dynamic text box. I want to be able to click on a word in that txt file once it is loaded into the .swf and cause it to load a different txt file into that same text box. Instead of using a hyperlink to go to a different webpage, I want it to go to a different txt file in the same movie. Does this make sense?

Recap: This is what I want to do: clicking on a word in theory.txt causes history.txt to load into the same movie, same dynamic text box.

Please help me...this is the third or fourth time I've posted this message, and I've gotten a few views, no answers. Someone please answer!

Thankyou in advance,

[F8] Need To Write Array, I Think (?)
onLoad = function () {

numPart = 50;

for ( var index = 0; index < numPart; index++) {

particle.duplicateMovieClip("Particle"+index, index);
particle._x = Math.random()*320;
particle._y = Math.random()*240;
speed = Math.floor(Math.random()*3)+6;
}
}

onEnterFrame = function () {

particle._y += speed;

if (particle._y > 240) particle._y = 0;
}

This code is taken off AS 1.0 and trying to fit it over to AS 2.0 for Flash 8, since that is what got loaded into my classroom this year - and I am trying to make sure the kids are NOT writing code on the movieclips themselves and trying to get them to write on the main timeline layer.

How can I get the particle in the onEnterFrame section to create an array or loop statement so I can apply the vertical movement to all the already created duplicate clips that were created in the onLoad section.

Should I use attachMovieClip instead and just call for the clip from the library instead of duplicating it on the stage first?

Thanks for your help and my high school kids will appreciate the fix.

How To Write An Array Of URL's ?
Hey guys,

Stupid question I know... But I don't know. LOL
In AS3, how do you create an array of external files loaded thru a URLLoader?

I know how to write an array, but I need to put down that it is basically an array of URL's, right? How do I add it to:

HTML Code:
var extFiles:Array = new Array("nnn", "nnn", "nnn");
Second question, also... What about an array of strings, would it be of any help in that case?

THANK YOU FOR ALL OF YOUR HELP!

how would i write an array from variables which i loaded to my movie from an external .txt- file?

my txt looks like:

the variables are loaded to flash properly (i checked this with a dynamic text field) but if i try to create a neqw array with my variables (i do this with an upcounting integer, like array[i]=user[i], i=i+1),
flash ignores the variables loaded from my .txt.
i tried to trace my variables, but nothing happened. maybe you have a solution to this...

[CS3] Help Need A Cleaner Way To Write This Array Of Buttons
Hi there,

not sure how difficult this is going to be, but I have 30 movie clips, which will all be sequentially numbered. (pos1, pos2, pos3......pos30).

They will all have the same functions, with the only change being the number.

I know there is a more efficient way to write this code using arrays, but I will need help with it. I would rather have 10 lines of code than 150.

I also need help with writing the code, that will disable all other movie clips, once the first one is clicked.

Also, not sure how tricky the javascript part will be.

Below is the code i am trying to achieve, but the long version.

PHP Code:

pos1.onRelease=function(){
    this.gotoAndStop("selected");
    getURL("Javascript:JSposition('',1)");
    (all other buttons).enabled = false;
}

pos2.onRelease=function(){
    this.gotoAndStop("selected");
    getURL("Javascript:JSposition('',2)");
    (all other buttons).enabled = false;
}

pos3.onRelease=function(){
    this.gotoAndStop("selected");
    getURL("Javascript:JSposition('',3)");
    (all other buttons).enabled = false;
}

pos4.onRelease=function(){
    this.gotoAndStop("selected");
    getURL("Javascript:JSposition('',4)");
    (all other buttons).enabled = false;
}

... all the way to

pos30.onRelease=function(){
    this.gotoAndStop("selected");
    getURL("Javascript:JSposition('',30)");
    (all other buttons).enabled = false;
}

AS Guru's please help!!!
Thanks.

Dear Users:

I have glanced at a couple of tutorials and tried to write my own function but can't seem to get it to work.

myParam.this._x=_xmouse;
myParam.this._y=_ymouse;

Simple Write To TXT File
Flash CS3 Pro-AS2
I'm not looking for this to run over the internet,
I'm looking for a simple way, or at least hopefully, for getting text that is submitted in one flash document (As in some text in an input box), being written in a txt file.
If I could choose, I'd prefer to be able to choose where it placed the text in the file, but I'd still be okay if it were to write the text at the end of the txt file.

Ok then, thanks.

*simple* How To Write Range
I am creating a flash game, and I can't seem to get a range to work correctly. I have an object that needs to be collected. once you touch it, it randomly regenerates on the y axis. That all works fine, however I'd like it to regenerate between lets say 20 and 500 because otherwise it overlaps a menu bar.

Here's what I have

Attach Code

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (hitTest(_root.super_fister)==true)
{
trace("hit")
_root.score.text = Number(_root.score.text) + Number(25)

gotoAndPlay(1)
_root.point._x = (0)
_root.point._y = random(400)
}
}

ReferenceError: Error #1074: Illegal Write To Read-only Property Array
I'm really sorry if this ends up a no brainer. I'm new to both AS3 and OOP and have spent the last 4 hours getting nowhere.

the code is being used as a document class in an fla (nothing else in the fla yet).

the boiled down code is:

package
{
import flash.display.Sprite;

public class SimpleMenu extends Sprite
{
public var btnData:Array;

public function SimpleMenu():void;
{
btnData:Array=new Array("Home","About us","Projects","Clients","Press","Brochure");
trace (btnData);
}

}
}

the output says:
ReferenceError: Error #1074: Illegal write to read-only property Array on global.
at SimpleMenu$cinit()
at global$init()

I've tried every way round that I can think off including the stupid ones.
I've googled it but the errors reported there seem much more complex.

[FMX] Creating A Simple Read & Write Database In Flash?
Hi everyone. I'm new here, nice to meet everyone ^^. I have some big problems(to me T^T) that I really need some advice about.

I'm working on this flash game right now and I need to implement a simple players database...

It needs to be both read and writable . Meaning, when the player register to save his character information , he needs to key in his email and a password and create an account. The account shall store that player's life amount, ammunition etc . All the infos are stored on an external file and retrieved again when the player logins to the game with the email as his login ID. Security issues are not the biggest concern here because its not exactly meant to be an online game and I don't think hacking would be something I need to worry about ^^'''

I've tried Xml with AS, but I realised that, that alone canot allow me to write the player's info into the xml file.

I'm not exactly an mySQL idiot...but I really have very(x2) rusty and limited knowledge of it. All the server topics confuses me and I've had no experience with Microsoft Access. I know neither Php nor ASP =(but they shouldnt be too hard to learn i hope>.<

I hope I've been clear in explaining. Sorry to trouble you folks here but can anyone suggest how I should go about this project? what are the programs necessary? Thanks in advance >.<

Flash Can Write To Txt? [FLfile.write]? :confused:
Okay, a while ago I started a project for one computer. I needed a little database to store information. When I started out I was informed that flash cannot write to a txt file and that I would have to use php to do my bidding. Well.... I just found in F8 the FLfile.write command that says otherwise. I haven't tested it, but will. So what is the deal with this? What advantages are there to flash vs. php with writing to a txt file?

Code:
var URI = "file:///c|/temp/mydata.txt";
if (FLfile.write(URI, "xxx")) {
alert("Wrote xxx to " + URI);
}
if (FLfile.write(URI, "aaa", "append")) {
alert("Appended aaa to " + fileURI);
}

Simple? Array To Array Problem
I am trying to pass the value from one array element to an element in another array. I believe the value is getting there, but it won't display when the 2nd array element is used as the variable in a dynamic text block. Here's the simplistic code I'm trying to learn the concept with:

one = new Array(5);
one[0]=1;
one[1]=2;
one[2]=3;
one[3]=4;
one[4]=5;
two = new Array(5);
two[0]=one[4];
two[1]=one[3];
two[2]=one[2];
two[3]=one[1];
two[4]=one[0];

I then set up individual dynamic text boxes for two[0] through two[4], but no value will show.

Array (simple I Think..)

I have a menu bar with four buttons each button has the following
script:

on (release) {
submenuArray = ["Welcome", "Industry Challanges", "Overview"];
gotoAndPlay ("SubSlide");
}
I change the values of the items in the array but it always reverts to the
values contained in the first array. Why does the new array not load when
the button is "released". Is this the wrong way to handle this?

[F8] Simple Array Help
I have created one button and placed 3 instances of it on the stage:

I put the instance names in an array and set up a variable (in Blue)using a for loop

Code:
var pButtons:Array = new Array("portBtn_1", "portBtn_2", "portBtn_3");
//trace(pButtons[0]);
var i:Number
for(i=0; i<pButtons.length; i++){
_global.buttons = pButtons[i]
//trace(buttons);
}

I am trying to avoid repetetive actionscripting by using a variable to execute a rollover function for all the instances of my movieclip/button.

the variable returns the correct strings, but i can't get the rollover function to work: (I included the .FLA)

Code:
buttons.onRollOver = Over;
buttons.onRollOut = Out;
function Over() {
this.gotoAndStop(2);
};
function Out() {
this.gotoAndStop(1);

Help With An Simple Array
Hi all, I worked out a few things to do with my xml loading on this thread here: http://www.actionscript.org/forums/s....php3?t=149349
Now I want to load different nodes of the xml into different instances of the movieClip I'm attaching, how would I go about this? as I'm not very familiar with arrays
BTW the Mc "table" has 'node1, node2, node3' inside it.
Cheers

Code:
xml = new XML();
xml.ignoreWhite = true;
xml.onLoad = function() {
nodes = this.firstChild.childNodes;
numOfNodes = nodes.length;
for (i=0; i<numOfNodes; i++) {
_global.node1 = nodes[i].firstChild.firstChild;
_global.node2 = nodes[i].firstChild.nextSibling.firstChild;
_global.node3 = nodes[i].firstChild.nextSibling.nextSibling.firstChild;
}
attachResults = function () {
attach = attachMovie("table", "table", r);
attach._x = 0;
attach._y = table._height*r;

Array? Simple Question
Hi,

It's late and my mind and reference books are failing me. All I want to do is have one button randomly address ten different MC's. Do I put their names in an array, define a variable as the array name[random number between one and ten], then make the button tell _root.(variablename).gotoAndPlay("start")???
I'm following the directives to the letter-no code errors, but I cannot address the different MC's like this, randomly or otherwise. Am I barking up the wrong tree? This seems like a simple thing to do; is an array the wrong approach?

Surely I can randomly target several MC's with one button???

Thank You,

I thought it would be something like this..

Code:
items = new Array();
code = [["Sword"[100, 23]], [["Sheild"[34, 65]]];
then all of the other items, now the problem arose when i wanted to acess just the first sat of sword:

Code:
trace(items[0, 1);
but that game me the entire first element
OUTPUT:
Sword, 100, 23

I just need the 100 in this instance, I am hoping you understand what I mean by this, I am guessing i am just way off on the array set up(as I Have no clue how to, that was just an educated guess) so please, i need your help flashers

Just A Simple Question About Array
Hi,
Would anybody tell me how to create a 2-dimensional array with actionscript? Thanks.
And i am wondering what this actionscript means:
_root.myArray[b] = new Array(); // b is simply a number

Thanks a lot

Array Problems So Simple I Am Sure
Hi everyone,

I am having such a problem with a stupidly simple thing. I am trying to copy from one array into another array. I have really simplified the script below but it still doesn't work! Any help would be much appreciated! Why doesn't it work!! Maybe becasue it is the weekend and I am tired but I can't figure it out!

Code:
stop();
categoryVar = new Array("doubles", "tennis_playing");
categoryArray = new Array();
for (j=0; j<2; j++) {
var temp2 = categoryVar[j];
trace(temp2);
_root.categoryArray[j] == temp2;
trace("loaded "+_root.categoryArray[j]+" into array");
}
trace("Category array: "+_root.categoryArray[0]+"|"+_root.categoryArray[1]);

this is in frame one! layer 1, nothing could be simpler!
WHere am I going wrong?

Thanks
A

Simple Array I Hope(MX)
Hi I suck at this so I really could use some help.

I have a php script that loops all the content of a databas.
While doing so it generates a name and a message.

I want to fetch that into flash but all that comes up in my dynamic box is the last post of my databas. I want them all in the same dynamic box called box.

My actionscript goes:
status="FETCHING COMMENTS";

loadVariables("comments.php", _root.container, "POST");
if (status eq "FETCHING COMMENTS") {
gotoAndPlay (8);
} else {
gotoAndPlay (9);
}

So I should have some sort of array i guess in the if statement.
But I have no clue on how to make an array in flashMX.

Simple Array Problem- Please Help
hi,

im trying to make a card game (choi dai di) using flash. so far im even getting stuck on the basics like shuffling the cards into 4 hands. i have got this far, but although i can trace the contents of each hand, it wont let me do anything with it (ie then convert it into displaying the appropriate cards). its pretty inefficient at the mo but i just want to get it working at the moment. below is some code!

_global.cardArray = new Array();

//sets up deck of cards. each item in array has 2 numbers- 1st is rank 2nd is suit

for (i = 1; i < 14; i ++)
{
for (j = 1; j < 5; j ++)
{
_global.cardArray.push(new Array(i, j));
}
}

Array.prototype.copy=Array.prototype.slice;
tempArray =_global.cardArray.copy();
tempArray2 = new Array();
tempArray3 = new Array();
tempArray4 = new Array();

//randomly picks cards from array of all cards, assigns it to new
//array and then removes it from original array

for (i = 0; i < 52; i ++)
{
randomise = Math.round(Math.random()*(tempArray.length-1));
tempArray2.push(tempArray[randomise]);
tempArray3 = tempArray.slice(0,randomise);
tempArray4 = tempArray.slice(randomise+1, tempArray.length);
tempArray = tempArray3.concat(tempArray4);
}

//then splits final array into 4 different hand arrays

hand1 = new Array(tempArray2.slice(0,13));
hand2 = new Array(tempArray2.slice(13,26));
hand3 = new Array(tempArray2.slice(26,39));
hand4 = new Array(tempArray2.slice(39,52));

trace (hand1);
trace (hand2);
trace (hand3);
trace (hand4);

//traces fine upto here, but if i say
// trace(hand1[0][1]);
//ie explicitly reference it then it does nothing.

What am I doing wrong- any help would be much appreciated!!
Thanks

Simple Array Question
Hello,

I'm not sure if using an array is correct in this instance, but i'd like to change the color of several movie clips at once by a using a function. Each clip has a unique name. Currently, I'm using the following code, and i know it's not accurate, or complete.

function setColor() {
states = ["fl","ga"];
myColor = new Color(states);
myColor.setRGB(0xD8D0C7);
}
setColor();

Any help in advance is greatly appreciated, as i can't seem to find any help elsewhere
