{
_root.gotoAndStop(200);

Np, really think about what your doing before you do it next time ;).

It's not that your a noob, its that you don't get what your doing, gotta think about this.

this.onPress = function ()
{
if (_root.haskey == 1)
{
_root.gotoAndStop(200);
_root.abriu = 1;
_root.chavenoinvent._visible = false;
} // end if
};

I bet you just pasted that replacement code at the very end of everything.

I'm guessing this is where it checks if you have the key or not and plays?

if (_root.haskey == 1)
{
this.play();
_root.abriu = 1;
_root.chavenoinvent._visible = false;
} // end if

do this:

if (_root.haskey == 1)
{
_root.gotoAndStop(200);
_root.abriu = 1;
_root.chavenoinvent._visible = false;
} // end if

I get 17-22

It's still just pong. Pong is pong, and pong is boring, if you're flash skills have improved a lot, then make something cool, get a cool idea and make it. Don't have to create a new genre of games but comon, flex those flash muscles.

You need the key code, things like Key.RIGHT and Key.LEFT are built in as variables that have the key code for those buttons.

So,
if(Key.isDown(2))
is what you are looking for, try it.

This is a very old topic, shouldn't have brought it up.

This seems like a pretty useless topic, anyone can go on google and find reference pics...

Thanks worked like a charm

So I've got a dynamic text box, actually, its a textArea (which is really behind the scenes just a styled dynamic text box, right?).
I want to be able to change the colors of the text, so it's not all the same color, is there anyway I can do that?

If its two circles, its easier to find the distance between the centers of the circles, and see if its less than or equal to r1+r2 (which would mean they are colliding).

if you want the maintimeline to goto frame 1, then do _root.gotoAndPlay(1);
if you want the object (im thinking the player?) to go to frame 1, just do this.gotoAndPlay(1);

Don't be a smartass, learn how a hittest works with the shapeflag parameter, and apply it.

Fla, some code? something? Are you even checking with the cliff?

On how to use the hitTest shapeflag parameter, not on making a platformer.

:With their being 1000's of schools with deep pockets,

Doubt it, my school has to cut back on a lot of activities next year, even busses because of not enough money. And a lot of schools are starting to struggle now with the slowing of our economy (United States), my last school also had some money problem (in Washington state), the one I'm at now is in Massachusetts.

Sloww, walk slow, bullets seem slow.

post the fla

That's what I do, I think it's pretty efficient and know of know better way.

That second onClipEvent(enterFrame) nullfies the first. It's just overwriting the first one, and theres no need for two, put the code from both into the same onClipEvent(enterFrame)

Hey man, I saw this before, looked over it, and didn't take the time to really look deep at it, at the least I shoulda asked for the fla, which is what i'm gonna do, can you upload the fla if you didn't already figure it out.
I'm really sorry about such a late response, but better late than never.

You're code all looks right though.

Thx, for the input, I'll try it out.

Btw, maybe they turned into zombies after juicing :p.

Double-tapping to run? You can dash by pressing D.
I've already got an fla sitting around on my desktop with a double-tap example, I am using CS3, I think I'm just using getTimer to check the time between hits.

Your sword doesn't grow, it just upgrades itself, there's going to be a shop where you can use coins that you get from dead zombies to upgrade things like your sword, idk if we're going to let you increase your skills like health, damage stuff like that. We havn't decided on anything about that though.

Um, so steroid zombies come after 1 minute. Barrel kills any enemies in range if you blow it up, and hurts you pretty bad. Steroid zombies can only be hurt by you after they fall down from chasing you too long. You're special attack kills an enemy in one hit but takes away half of your energy (it regenerates though).

1) how do i make it so that when the character fall off the edge it will get responed?

Reset the x,y to its orignal (store the starting x and y)

) how do i make the screen follow the character so that it is always in the middle of the screen (the ground loks like it is the only thing moving)

Use a V-Cam, inside it's function where it does most of the work, make its x and y the player's x and (y - 100) or something like that.

if you could gie me help that would be great. even a tutorial that shows me would help because i couldnt find any useful ones for that

Wrong forum? Try general?

Hey Prof, thanks for your opinions, I really appreciate them, I'm working on the spawning right now.

Yeah, I started to program an RPG before, a while ago, it was coming out pretty good, I just couldn't find an artist for it.
