I just realized there is no "Remove" button for my oldest and newest flash submissions. Why is this?

Try explaining what kind of game it is, what the objective is, etc. This might help people figuring out if their skills are good enough to help you.

Believe me, i've thought this, but i always find a situation where it doesn't work :<

Say my current _rotation is .. 15. I have set my goal to -56. I've been trying really hard to make a script to figure out the shortest way to get my _rotation to the goal. To Add or Subtract. Never worked correctly. So, does anyone know how i could figure out if it's shorter to Add of Subtract to reach my goal?

Thanks.

well yeah with AS it's possible. Even with no name and looping through the children you can solve this. But not by just copy pasting ;)

Hmm, is there then a way to paste an actionscript onto multiple movie clips at once? I'm just trying to save time here.

I'm wondering, Can i get a new number behind my movieclip everytime i paste it? like, i paste the movie clip once, and the instance name is Test1, and the next time i paste it, it will be Test2. Etc.. Is this possible, or is there an alternative that will do the same?

Thanks.

Does this tutorial help

Thanks alot!

I'm making a simple racing game. You view your car from the top. It rotates using _rotating. Of course, a race game is boring without someone to race against - Ai's. I've spent all day trying to get these AI's working but i just can't. I thought about making a movie clip, with a car moving using tween, but it would be hard to make it move the same speed as the player, which makes it too easy, or just unfair. Then i thought about making the AI car face some "nodes" and move in the direction it's facing. When it reaches one "node" it faces the next node on the course and moves toward it. My problem is simply, that i cant make it face another movie clip. So if anyone knows how make one movie clip turn around to face another - or have another way to make racing AI's, i would really love if you would take a minute to tell me, or link me to a tutorial. Thanks!

I've tried a bit, but without success. Does anyone have a clever script that can make a movie clip face another movie clip? (using _rotation)

Thanks alot!

Hey there! I am in need of some help. I want to turn around a movie clip. Changing it's angles. And then moving in the direction it's pointing. Is this possible? Any help is appreciated.

Is there any way to merge layers?

Yeah, so pretty noob question real quick,

How do i find the mouse position?

Don't say _xmouse i tried it

this._x = _xmouse; this._y = _ymouse;

Messed the movieclip up flying randomly around the screen :s

Calling someone a liar and stating complete horseshit?! Seriously if you had the slightest bit of knowledge about flash and its restrictions you would never have said that. Does the term "sandbox" and "security" ring a bell? Wake up!

It is not possible to write to a users hard disk with flash without using other tools or scripts ect. Live with it.

I was talking to the guy who said that you could only do it with permision and it was only possible with AS3, i was told once how to do it, and it worked in AS2. And i don't wanna write to people's harddisk... To my website, Depending on stuff they write in inputs.

LIES, I did it with AS2 b4.

If i have a var i need to write into a txt file ? Someone helped me once but resulted in it asked me where i want to save the file, i want it to just overwrite the file :)

Naah, im making a quiz, 4 answers so 3 of them on EVERY question will lead to death screen (but thx to you now only lose 1 hp out of 3 :p)

I am always very organized or whatever you said :D

Is there a way to replace a certain piece of code (in my case gotoAndStop(4); ) with something else EVERYWHERE in the document? Frame 4 is the "You fail, lose etc..." screen where i don't want that but i wanna add health bar so instead of just failing you lose some health then the health bar takes care of moving to frame 4 when you don't have anymore health left.

Then you Google.

Then you slap yourself for not trying Stage.showMenu = false

Ok, i slapped myself lol.

What is the code to remove like "play, forward" etc.. when you right click? :)

How do i rotate an MC Using like AS? :p

I need something that defines "anything" so i can make like

if(var1 == "example"+ANY){
BLAH
}

So if it was "example4424" it would work or even "examplefas1233234sffs".

Understand what i mean?

thank you! :D

1. I would have putten "?" also in the subject but newgrounds has a damn limit :(

2. So yeah what are they,

3. You could also give me a link to a keycode getter, but i only found one that got deleted because some idiot tried to upload an swf on imageshack D:

So yeah thanks :3

My flash game is based on a guitar hero likely, and people can make custom songs, by uploading the mp3 and giving the game a DIRECT URL to the mp3 file, so to make looading time of game faster i'll do the same with the build in songs, so does anyone know a website that you can upload files to who also gives you a DIRECT link? This way i can also recommend people where to upload the mp3 to their custom songs.

Oooh, i thought it was an example of what i wanted xD i didn't know it worked :D THANK YOU! :D

EDIT: It could also be something like just playing the sound from the URL or saving it to the library

Can i load an mp3 to a timeline, so the sound file it is playing on the timeline is the one from the url you have written in the script or the input? :D

yeah! :D
Know i'm late but i was checking up on these old "help" threads i made to get the help again as i completely forgot it :3
So is there a way to do that? :3

I'm bored so does anyone know a game on newgrounds that's good for wasting my time? :p

I meant to say Let's say the meeting is over a webcam,,
