 |
|
I'm trying to make a game for my DA profile where random objects fall down and you have to collect them (and dodge some).
So far i have:
| Code: | var drops = new Array( "_shuriken", "_kunai", "_konoha", "_kibaCollect" );
var count = 0;
function SpawnDrop ()
{
var Drop:MovieClip;
Drop._x = Math.Random()*Stage.width;
Drop._y = 0;
if( count <= 35 ) {
Drop.attachMovie( trace(drops[ Math.Random()*3 ]), "_dropTmp", count, count );
Drop.onEnterFrame = StartDrop(Drop);
} else {
gotoAndStop(3); // Leave to the completion frame
}
count++;
}
var IntID = setInterval( SpawnDrop, 3000 );
function StartDrop ( item )
{
var gravity = 6;
item._y += gravity;
item._y += item._y;
if (item.hitTest(_root.tray))
{
trace("Item fell");
delete item.onEnterFrame;
}
} |
Does anyone know why NOTHING appears or falls? if i change "item" to "this" in the StartDrup function, the whole stage falls down so I know that the falling works. |

var Drop:MovieClip = _root.attachMovie("lol", "Drop",+_root.getNextHighestDepth, _root.getNextHighestDepth)
Drop._x = Math.random()*Stage.width;
Drop._y = 0;
Drop.onEnterFrame = function() {
var gravity = 2
this._y += gravity;
this._y += 2
if (this.hitTest(_root.tray))
{
trace("Item fell");
this.unloadMovie()
}
}
}
}
var IntID = setInterval( SpawnDrop, 3000 );

I fixed the ball falling speed for you because it was way to fast. |

Thanks! Things actually fall down now but i'm still having problems with my array. Whenever i use trace like this:
| Code: | | trace(drops[ Math.Random()*3 ]) |
It outputs "undefined". Any ideas? |

| Code: |
trace(drops[Math.round(Math.random()*3)])
|
An array requires specific values, not 0.10438302 so round it. |

| Nope, still no luck. It dissapears when the function is called again. |

| Just change the theme of the game. Have it fall into lava, or something where it is impossible to be retrieved if it falls all the way, and just vanishes. |

It is supposed to fall all the way offscreen but i would like to spawn more than one movieclip at a time. The current code removes the movieclip when it puts another on. |

| Well.. use the exact same code but for a different object, then you have two objects spawning, and use variables to control the rate of falling, etc. |

This will end up being practically the exact same game..
The graphics are up to you, this should be all the code you need for the gameplay.
| Code: |
_root.timer = 10
_root.score = 0
_root.missed = 0
function SpawnDrop ()
{
var Drop:MovieClip = _root.attachMovie("lol", "Drop",+_root.getNextHighestDepth, _root.getNextHighestDepth)
Drop._x = Math.random()*Stage.width;
Drop._y = 0;
Drop.onEnterFrame = function() {
var gravity = 9
this._y += gravity;
if (this.hitTest(_root.catcher))
{
_root.score += 1
this.unloadMovie()
}
else if (this._y > 400){
_root.missed += 1
this.unloadMovie()
}
}
}
onEnterFrame = function() {
_root.timer -= .2
if (_root.timer <= 0) {
_root.timer = 10
SpawnDrop();
}
}
catcher.onEnterFrame = function() {
this._x = _xmouse
}
|
-Put frame rate on 40
-Stage size 550 by 400 pixels |

| It'll be nothing like that, firstly you have a character which you move around and second 2 of the drops kill you and 2 increase score. |

This code will drop 4 random objects. I will let you decide what the objects will do, and let you program what will happen if it touches the catcher.
| Code: |
var drops:Array = new Array("1", "2", "3", "4")
_root.timer = 10
_root.score = 0
_root.missed = 0
function SpawnDrop ()
{
var Drop:MovieClip = _root.attachMovie(drops[Math.round(Math.random()*3)]) , "Drop",+_root.getNextHighestDepth, _root.getNextHighestDepth)
Drop._x = Math.random()*Stage.width;
Drop._y = 0;
Drop.onEnterFrame = function() {
var gravity = 9
this._y += gravity;
if (this.hitTest(_root.catcher))
{
_root.score += 1
this.unloadMovie()
}
else if (this._y > 400){
_root.missed += 1
this.unloadMovie()
}
}
}
onEnterFrame = function() {
_root.timer -= .2
if (_root.timer <= 0) {
_root.timer = 10
SpawnDrop();
}
}
catcher.onEnterFrame = function() {
this._x = _xmouse
}

I've tried everything. It just isn't working out.
Look at the attached image, it might show what im trying to do.
The star at the top stays still until the next one is drawn and then it disappears. |
