Hello.
I have a MovieClip with 100 frames and I'm trying to get it to play the specific frames based on its acceleration values.
Here's an image explaining what I'm aiming for. The MC with 100 frames should go and stay at the 50th frame. Depending on its movement from left or right, it should play the movieclip frames inside forward or backward.
I'm a total noob so any help is appreciated.

Here's how it should look like when moving

Unless the gif has a glitch when the slider is returning thats not possible because why would you slide it left and it slides but than you bring it back and it doesnt slide. If you make it move with code it will work but not with key frames
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {Quote:

Normally the code above works if you manually enter a number but I need it to read it from the position value of another object to create the swing effect.
So it should look like ;
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
var fNum:Number = _root.Target._x;
gotoAndStop(fNum);
}
but for some reason it doesn't work.
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
var fNum:Number = _root.Target._x;
gotoAndStop(fNum);
}
I would not declare variable names at 30fps i would declare it once outside the enterframe like this:
var fNum:Number = _root.Target._x;
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
fNum=_root.Target._x;
this.gotoAndStop(fNum);
}
or no var is better:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
this.gotoAndStop(_root.Target._x);
}
dont let your mc exceed 100px

Hi,
Why are you giving him abort the script codes Alloy, he wants help not flash not responding.
Seems you have since removed it.
Maybe attach your fla that you have made Alloy, bbut it would also help to see the fla that the poster has created.
Hi,
Alloy it would beif you were declaring the variable outside of the movieclip then it would be referenced using _root.fNum or _parent.fNumPHP Code:onClipEvent (load)
{
var fNum:Number = _root.Target._x;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame)
{
fNum = _root.Target._x;
this.gotoAndStop(fNum);
}
Thanks alot guys.
I figured out that the problem was that the _x value had fractions and that was whats messing up the script. I added a 'math:round' before '_root.Target._x' and it worked like a charm. I got the first part working where the frame it plays change depending on the _x position of another object. Now I wanna calculate the _x difference of the current and previous frames of that object and tell the MC which frame to play.
Thanks for the help :) I think I've figured it out with the code above. I got something else to do for the swing now. Would you mind helping me convert a few AS1 scripts into AS2 ?Quote:

Switching from Flash 5(AS1) to Flash 8(AS2) breaks the script and nothing works.Quote:

maybe you are asking for it to be ported to actionscript compiler 2.0 which is actionscript 3.0?
The flash was set to be published for flash 5 with AS1. When I changed it to Flash 8 and AS2 it didn't work. It didn't show any errors but the spring effect wasn't working. I just need this script to run in AS2.Quote:

dezoid go learn at english kit and dont come back until you do
merre chrissmas alloys, i jus wonder if you have fixed the guy, or maybe you no downloaded file or perhap you not able to help because you can not do it.
honest is only answer alloy
Hi,
Alloy, GauFra means the publish settings, not the actions panel display setting.
He means publish for -
Target : flash player 8
and
Script : Actionscript 2.0
I haven't actually downloaded the file as been busy, maybe at some other point.

Now would any of you know how to find an objects difference in _x position of the current frame and the _x position of the previous frame? So I can subtract those values and figure out how much it moved in one frame.
Hi,
This is not answering your next request by the way, just converting the previous rerquest
But you might want to push the values of both to separate arrays and then compare/ add/ subtract them when needing to.
Thanks man, I'll check it out.Quote:

Hi,
The attached fla is regarding your first issue.
The second issue I haven't even looked at but quickly suggested the dual array at first glance, if you were using AS3 then you could perhaps save as byteArrays and then compare data when complete or when needed.
I do believe the code does provide the numbers you require already, you just need to collect them, note that you are using onEnterFrame so it will build up a lot of data in a short amount of time.
Failing that you are on your own there, or some other poster could assist you with working examples, or even an *.fla in accordance with your needs.
