I have a question that is related to z-depth managing in an isometric

In the game I basically use one abstract layer that holds all the tiles
and their information wheter or not a movable object is allowed to
'walk' over the tile.
I am having problems using URLLoader to send data to a server side script.
What I am doing is loading in a file as binary data and converting to Base64
then sending this Base64 string within an xml string.
It is working fine with very small files of only a few kb. However if the
files are larger
Okay - I had to dig in a little more, I have a blog post about this (whats

Try toString(aArray[i]._name) instead I'm not 100% sure what you're
storing in your array, but it sounds like you're storing movieClip objects
in there, in which case the result [object Object] would be the correct
output.

The trace functions arguments are implemented as follows trace(...
arguments). Which means that all types of variables are accepted. Every type
of variable extends Object and with that every instance will have a toString
method. This is the method the trace function will call to display the
value.
toString() is a method of the Object class and it doesn't have any
arguments. So while every object in Flash has a toString method, by
default it returns [object Object]. From your code it looks like
what you're actually doing is calling this.toString(), you probably
want to do something like

Hi Jiri,
The key here is that you can have 'empty' depth levels i.e. an object at
depth 5 and an object at depth 8 with nothing at depth 6 and 7.
You can make the depth dependent on the actual pixel _y value of the
object rather than on the y value of the tile - so depth=_y (or more likely

I created a kioks application that needs to display data (text and images)

Hi Alexander,
You can create a video symbol in the library by using the library's menu. As
for depth, have you tried putting the video in a movie clip and swapping the
depths of that movie clip? That should work.
By the way, ElectroServer 4 supports video as well (to add that to your
list).
Every object gets a z-depth assigned. For the players the
zdpeth need to be set based on the tile they are at. This way
the players can walk 'around' the enviorment objects. For the
z-depth calculation I use the tile grid x and y plus the
width of the row, this generates an unique z-depth
Sounds like the ASO cache problem.
Try Delete ASO files and Test Movie from the Control menu.
Making sure that all computers in the Network have the exact same time (PC
clock) may prevent this from happening.

You say [object Object] is the correct output if the object is a
movie clip. This isn't the behavior I see. Any time I trace a movie
clip I get the clip's name (level0.foo.bar.whatever), not the generic
object results.
