That's an awful way to do it.

Topic: Rate My Flash Site

Posted: 07/26/09 12:36 AM

Forum: Flash

I pretty much agree with what everybody else has been saying... besides that freewebs kid though.

Site takes too long to load, and it'd be better if you just embedded your youtube videos into the site.

How to get the selection thing to go away? That just takes a bit of CSS. You make this line:

<div align="center">

Become

<div id="content" align="center">

Then you make a CSS file called styles.css (or whatever you want, but styles is logical), in it you put:

#content
{
       outline-style:none;
}

That's all, this file goes into the main directory where Movies.htm and everything else is...

Then inside all of your page files you just do:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://www.moonlp.com/styles.css"/>

that's inside your <head> tags

I don't use a relative link because that styles file shouldn't be going anywhere AND all your pages will be using that same thing for now anyways.

But you really shouldn't make the page reload everytime you go to a new section, it justs too long of a load time.

That was pretty ugly, and bad. I forced myself through the main menu and even through the intro screens, but then I saw some arrows and your guy falling (maybe a cutscene? maybe the game?) and I just closed the window.

It wasn't very pretty to look at.

Topic: Enemy AI

Posted: 07/19/09 04:23 AM

Forum: Flash

I'd say just write down on a sheet of paper how you want the enemy to act. Think of all the possible scenarios, think of the strategies that the human player would use and apply them to the computer player. After you know how you want him to act then you'll have an easier and a clearer time scripting it.

Topic: Simple question classes in Java

Posted: 07/18/09 11:23 PM

Forum: Programming

Java is a pass-by-reference language, so you just give it the array and you can change its properties like that..

public static void TestThis(int[] sampleArray)
    {
        sampleArray[0] *= 2;
        sampleArray[1] *= 63;
    }
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        // TODO code application logic here
        int[] myArray = {2,4};
        System.out.println(myArray [0]);
        System.out.println(myArray [1]);
        TestThis(myArray );
        System.out.println(myArray [0]);
        System.out.println(myArray [1]);
    }

But you could not do something like this:

public static void TestThis(int[] sampleArray)
{
     sampleArray = new int[]{34, 23};
}

As I understand the problem, it's because you're actually passing a copy of the original reference, so you can't set that array to be a new array because it's memory adress changes (I think).

You could always just pass back the new array though.
public static int[] TestThis(int[] sampleArray)
{
sampleArray = new int[]{34, 23};
return sampleArray;
}

So what I'm trying to do is get a swf to talk to a java application running off of my computer. It works locally (I can recieve messages from the swf), but then I gave it to a friend so I could see if it still worked. And it didn't, he put in my IP adress and my java app didn't get any messages.

I'm totally lost with this, and I'd search for it on google but I don't even know what I should be looking for. So what's the problem with this setup? Is it getting caught by my firewall or something maybe?

Thanks for helping out =).

You shouldn't need the Stop(); at all if its just a button.

I suppose you could go through the hassle of keeping track of which animation is currently playing. Probably by a string so it's easier.

if (Key.isDown(aKey) && facingLeft == false && currentAnimation != "TURN") 
{
       currentAnimation = "TURN";
       player.gotoAndPlay("turn");
}

this.scaleX = whatever;

Fine, then don't change it, you're the only one that could.

4. I need there to be a variable that determines what movieclip gets drawn.

Thanks for the detailed info. I have no idea what you want here.

Oh well obviously it's because every frame you want to turn on you just go back to the first frame of the turn animation.

if (Key.isDown(aKey) && facingLeft == false) 
{
       player.gotoAndPlay("turn");
}

This can be easily fixed by putting each different animation into it's own movieclip. And then the player will have a timeline with each frame holding one different animation movieclip.

So then it'd turn into player.gotoAndStop("turn");
And because it's a movieclip on that frame, it won't start back at its first frame, but it'll keep playing.

Topic: Finding the X, Y of a point?

Eh, if localToGlobal isn't what you want then maybe this is:

var bottomRight:Point = new Point(myMC.x + myMC.width, myMC.y + myMC.height);
var topLeft:Point = new Point(myMC.x, myMC.y);

I'm assuming your registration point is in the top left of the square to begin with.
