Working this time?

Still no luck...maybe there's just something wrong with the rest of my codes or something...meh...

Response to: AS problem with hitTest Posted August 5th, 2008 in Game Development

Alright, thanks whoever helped me, and to those who didn't, well 'bleeeh'. The only code that was suggested didn't seem to work, although it seemed alright..maybe it's something with my computer, I dunno..doesn't really matter, as it wasn't for a game that I was gonna publish, just a game to see if my hitTesting worked. They seemed to, except for that one..

Well, it's a learning curve I suppose..I learned that if you post an AS problem in the Forums, you get told off cos your AS is wrong, which is kinda the whole point of the thread...Maybe stick to animation in the future...

The fuck is 'this._,'? Remove it. Learn to code first of all.

Well, it works for every other hitTest on the MovieClip...it's like _root. but it refers to the item on which you placed the code...

Yeah, completely, and they're very useful, maybe get something cheap like a Wacom Bamboo...or a Wacom Bamboo Fun, they're meant to be better...

AS problem with hitTest Posted August 5th, 2008 in Game Development

OK, I have a line, I converted it to a symbol, and gave it the instance name of 'greenline'. I want it so that when my ball, also a symbol (instance name 'ball') connects with the line, it goes to a new frame. I placed the following code on the ball:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (this._, hitTest(_root.greenline)) {
gotoAndStop(3)
}
}

But it doesn't seem to do anything...I also tried placing a similar code (but with 2 '_root.'s) on the frame, but then it went straight to the 3rd frame, even though I had stop(); on the first frame...

What's happening?

AS 2.0 btw...

Thanks,

Response to: Second Secret Question Posted August 4th, 2008 in Game Development

1. You shouldn't really be talking about secrets, I have a feeling it's against the rules.

I'm sure that they get a lot of threads about people asking if they should change their names. It's your choice anyways so you should keep it to yourself. It is against the rules to complain about a locked or deleted thread though.

Oh, OK, sorry..in my defence, I was just asking why, I'm fine with it being deleted...


A few of minutes ago, I posted a thread in the General Forum asking if I should change my username. A minute later, it was deleted, with no given reason. It wasn't locked, just deleted. Below, I give you the thread simply for the purpose of answering the question:

I'm not really sure if I like my username, it's not very catchy...but is changing my name worth the bother. It means I'll have to change the name in all my flashes, but that won't take that long....
Also, what do you think my new name (if I get it) should be? I was thinking abstraction cos it's easy to remember, and kinda represents me, as I like, and do, abstract art...Any name suggestions?
Wait, actually, this is the general forum, I better not ask for name suggestions..
So anyway, the main question I'm asking is: Is my name catchy enough to not bother?

Was my thread doing anything wrong? I'm not quite sure why it was deleted...Is there any chance it could have been a error in Newgrounds?

Thanks,
~fish1892

Response to: Good Collabs?? Posted August 3rd, 2008 in Game Development

When it comes to requirements for startig your own collab, you seem to fit the bill: BA of over 3.5, solo submission over 3.5 etc.... Here are the new collab rules for future reference...

Good luck with your collab if you decide to make one...

Unless you meant the last in the list, meaning the first review given, but if you mean the latest...

Response to: the bolivian brain hugger Posted August 3rd, 2008 in Art

Well, seeming that I haven't done any art for a while, I felt I'd continue the trend...Here's my version. I gave him antennae and weird teeth for some reason, and continued Zurak's eye idea..

Anyway, it's nowhere near the other ones, but I don't think it's my worst art...

Response to: "official" atheism vs. non atheism Posted August 3rd, 2008 in Politics

Can I ask all non-atheists a question: Has whatever God you believe in ever done anything for you? I have no problem with people believing in God if the belief itself brings them happiness, but what's the point if you only believe so you'll go to heaven, or because of peer pressure..

Anyway, that's my opinion, I'll be leaving now...

I have now officially posted in every single NG forum...

It's iffy. What year was the last post made? Anything under 08 or a few months, even weeks and it could be bad.

The last post was only, like, yesterday, but it's slipped off the front page, and nobody looks at the 2nd page....
