This is a simple file I made as a concept which I never bothered expanding. Go nuts.

Demo here: http://megaswf.com/view/85ef337d295f0c75d7e7419ec6ed6482.html

To elaborate further on my original suggestion:


function mouseHasReleased(e:MouseEvent):void {
e.target.parent.parent.parent.gotoAndPlay();
}

Note that the 'e' is whatever you...

To get to root from a movie clip in as3 you could do:


event.target.parent.parent.parent.parent.gotoAndPlay();

You can use


trace(event.target.parent.parent.parent.name);

Just commenting, but isn't this thread going on 3 years old?

Game is fantastic! A couple of points, though:

-There is a bug with starting a race, if you are holding the up key while entering the race, the message telling you to press up to start will stay...

I'm reporting this as a bug also. It seems that not everyone has had this issue, but I can't get rid of it for the life of me, and I know some other people have had it.

When you try and use...

Despite this sort of stuff being all over the forums, it's a little spread out and there aren't as many definitive answers to people asking for flashvars, just people discussing it. So I present:...

CTRL-SHIFT-ENTER

Takes you into debug mode.

It can tell you the line the error is on. You are trying to reference something that isn't there. Perhaps it isn't instantiated yet? Haven't even...

I'd reccomend doing it with Flashvars. It's quite simple in your situation, just hard code the flashvars into your html file. So it would be like <embed src=movie.swf?i=2> and <param name="movie"...

I don't agree with not banning the guy just because it's not practical. Have you seen the freelance section lately? How many people is he going to rope into working for him for such low wages?

I know people get a certain pleasure from watching this guy make a fool of himself on the boards, but I would put forward that he needs to be banned right away. The guy is a thief, he takes credit...

Does it give any messages or anything? It's hard to figure out whats going wrong with so little information.

I used to have problems with flash crashing every 20 minutes or so, starting fast,...

PM and email sent, think I have what you need :)

With what he said about using "_height", it relates to whether you are in Actionscript 2 (which puts "_"'s before it's properties) or Actionscript 3 (which doesn't).

Basically, when you create a...

I wanted to see the code where you instanciated both movie clips, so I could be more relevant to you, but never mind. Actionscript 3 is very weird about instance names and how you use them with...

I'm not sure what you are asking, but if a movie clip is in your library, to add it to the stage and have the ability to control it, you right click the movie clip in your library, tick the 'export...

stop();

enter_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickHander);

function clickHandler(e:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndStop("Scene 2", 1);
}

AS3.

It would be easier to help if we were given more of the code.

I don't think it is possible, I just tried and realised that though it is quite easy to slow down the mouse pointer:

addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, moveCursor);
function...

Hi,

We can use DispatchEvent to communicate events from movie clips to the main timeline. This is how I would do it.

In the main timeline, add:

Change


var score:Number = 0;

Here I have come up with a yucky, but stable solution. Improve on it at your will. I recreated your document in flash with my own boxes. Basically, take the movie clip that you are loading from your...

Hi,
Believe it or not, they try to keep it a secret, but flash can actually tell you what line the error occurs on. I don't know if you've tried already, but ctrl-shift-enter, enters debug mode, it...

You should really define your variables with types and values.

isNaN is a test for whether somethings is a number, for use in conditionals, it won't output anything unless you tell it to.


var...

Window - Other panels - Scene.

I once spent 20 minutes looking for it too :)

Hi, hopefully these questions will get answered soon, as this will need to be finished quickly.

So basically, I found when I was using flash that when I drag a checkBox component into the stage,...
