Hi Eric,
Thanks for thinking out loud! :)
Or are the seats "reservé" once a user registers (logged in or not)?
Yes. Apparently, once they register they get a seat and they can't change
seats. they can reserve a seat though (expires after 24hrs)
The reason why we've chosen to place the empty movieClip on stage
manually is because the drawing of the stadium is quite arbritrary. It would
be difficult but not impossible to come with a fool-proof solid way of doing
this dynamic because of the way the stadium is drawn.
By placing the mcs on stage, will let the designer decide exactly where he
wants to place an object/avatar!
your Flash designer could have a load image fonction to place the avatar
(jpg image outside your flash?) inside itself and scalled to fit?
The avatars are actually created based on various component elements a use
chooses duing registration process (head, top, bottom, skincolor) not
through loading jpgs).
2. you tell the MC corresponding to his seat to load his/her avatar
Currently, we're close to having a solid solution that scales (depending
on amount of users we have), but we can't seem to be able to link "the MC
corresponding to his seat" with the seat number he is given. <--- if that
makes any sense?
Thanks

1. the user logs in to your system
2. you tell the MC corresponding to his seat to load his/her avatar
Or are the seats "reservé" once a user registers (logged in or not)?
In that case, on init of the flash application, pullout all the users
and init their seat (with a active / inactive representation based on
the component settings like _alpha)?
Just thinking out loud!
A+

Yeah, the users are allowed to choose their seat.
And I can loop trough the avatar object and pull out his seatNumber but
we
need a good way to link that seatID in the db with the one onstage.
Thanks

Just a suggestion...
Are your users choosing their seat or are you populating your stadium
in
a orderly fashion? One way or the other, when they register you
attribute them their seat and store that info (the seat id) in a
BD...And when they return to the stadium, just pullout the seat...
(It gives me an idea for project of mine!)
Thanks.

Hi franto,
Thanks for your reply. Dude, your english is not that bad :)
The current idea I'm working on is to get the Flash designer to place
an empty MovieClip on every seat of the stadium and name this empty
clip with a unique ID (Tier1_Block1_Stand1_Row1_SeatNumber1). Pretty
much as you suggested. But how am I going to connect the avatar's
seat
number (given to him when he registers) with his specific seat on
stage?
Thanks again,
Jan

it's hard to say, i think it depens of your 4 views :)
can it be matematically told that you can assign ID to every seat by
some math formulas?
or you want just create your views after you will find a good way to
populate them? (sorry for my english :)

Hi list,
I'm creating a 2D football stadium in Flash (4 views) which will be
populated with avatars/users from a .NET webservice.
The football stadium is illustrated - it's not 3D. The avatars are
simple
animated MovieClips.
Every section of the stadium has a stand with a certain number of
seats.
What's the most elegant or most scalable way to populate my stadium
seats
with a bunch of MovieClip avatars?
Bearing in mind that a single avatar must be placed in the exact
same
seat
everytime (no random seats).
Any suggestions welcome.
Thanks in advance.
