Re: [Flashcoders] Grid / Math - getting neighbouring positions
Please I really need help on this on, I am cracking my head over it.
Bresenham algo is also not the way to go, because it is for circle's and
to complex!
I can only get one ring, arggg
If I go one ring further then it results in many double values,
calculate allready when doing the first ring.
Here is the code..
var row = 0;
var c:Number = 3;
var ring:Number = 1;
//take start pos [2,2]
var x:Number = 2;
var y:Number = 2;
//
while (rowc) {
for (var i:Number = 0; ic; i++) {
var rowID:Number = (x-ring)+i;
var colID:Number = (y-ring)+row;
if (rowID0 || colID0 /* || (rowID == sR colID == sC)*/) {
continue;
}
trace('['+colID+','+rowID+']');
}
row++;
}

Re: [Flashcoders] Grid / Math - getting neighbouring positions
The easy way to do this is like so.
So you have a square at x,y, and you want to get all
the squares n squares away.
Get squares
x+n, y
x-n, y
x+n, y+n
x-n, y+n
x+n, y-n
x-n, y-n
x, y+n
x, y-n
I suspect you want to do this for your version of that
whale-ey thing though, so what you actually want to do
is a bit different.
First off, to find out which grid square a point fits
into (this being the center of where your user is
looking):
You need the height and width of your grid squares.
Take your point (x, y)
Your point fits into grid square
[Math.floor(x/squareWidth),
Math.floor(y/squareHeight)]
Apply this by figuring out where on the big picture
your person is looking.
After that, move left and up by half the screen width,
and height, then right and down by the same amount,
and you have the ranges of squares to get in order to
display that part of the image.

Re: [Flashcoders] Grid / Math - getting neighbouring positions
Thxn Joshua and others,
I have to look into that. In the mean time I came up with the following
code. This takes in a vector and then calculates a 'ring' from that
position. With this, I can scale up the 'radius' and get recursively get
all the rings from a point from in to outer ring. My goal i still to
fill an array with all the points of the grid, starting from a center
point en then moving outwards in a ring.
Here is the code so far, i hope someone can maybe give some commment on it.
var i:Number = 0;
var cycle:Number = 1;
var dir:Number = 1;
var count:Number = 3;
var row:Number = 0;
function getTiles(startX:Number , startY:Number) : Void
{
//startX -= (count-1);
//startY -= (count-1);
var x:Number = 0;
var y:Number = 0;
while (cycle=4) {
if (cycle2 dir == 1) {
dir = -1;
}
row = (cycle%2);
while (icount) {
if (dir == 1) {
if (row) {
display(startX + x, startY + y);
x++;
} else {
display(startX + x, startY + y);
y++;
}
} else {
if (row) {
display(startX + x, startY + y);
x--;
} else {
display(startX + x, startY + y);
y--;
}
}
i++;
}
i = 0;
cycle++;
}
}
function display(x, y) {
trace('['+x+','+y+']');
}
getTiles(2,2)

[Flashcoders] sending simple messages between swf files
Hello Simple, quick question We are building a game that contains mini games. We want to create the mini games as separate swf files to load into our main swf. We need the mini game swfs to send a message to the main swf that it has finished. From reading the docs, one way to do this is by using the LocalConnection method. Is this the preferred method of doing this kind of thing? Or is there another way?

Re: [Flashcoders] sending simple messages between swf files
if your movies are loaded into your main.swf, the movies have access to classes and _root variable. So, you can use singleton, and call static methods of classes defined in your main.swf from your games.swf. Maybe, you can also give a look at exclude.xml They prevent the code of your classes of being duplicated in main.swf and games.swf. http://www.google.com/search?hl=pt-BRq=exclude.xml+actionscript+classesbtnG=Pesquisarmeta= []'s andrei On 6/17/07, August Gresens [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello Simple, quick question We are building a game that contains mini games.

[Flashcoders] onRelease, onPress missing with attachmovie and DoubleClick class
Hi all Forgive me, i'm learning here :) If i use attachmovie to add a mc to he stage which has a doubleclick class attached to the mc in the library, i cant use onRelease or onPress. If I remove the class, attachmovie works with onRelease etc Why is this? Is there a simple answer?

Re: [Flashcoders] flv problems, cpu usage
Problem fixed...i was using some old html templates to display the swf in the browser...when i used CS3 with the new AC_RunActiveContent.js it fixed everything!

Re: [Flashcoders] Mac full screen title bar
Hello Tony, yep, I think I saw this happen to me. It's a bit of pain because it only occurs on a subset of macs which can make it difficult to spot. The following solution works for me, found it on a forum but I don't remember where, so unfortunately, I can't give credit where credit is due. best regards david hodgetts -- start quote make a 3 frame movie. don't put anything in the first two frames except this actionscripting: in frame 1, put fscommand(fullscreen, true); in frame 2, put fscommand(fullscreen, false); in frame 3, put fscommand(fullscreen, true); and then continue on w/ the rest of your actionscripting in this frame and on... placing the three toggling fscommands all in the same frame did not seem to provide enough time for flash to react. i realize this is ugly w/ the flashing notfull/fullscreen. i hate writing code and building files like this... but it does work. the flashing doesn't really show up on a PC either, which is nice. -- end quote On 12 Jun 2007, at 17:15, Tony P wrote: Hello all, I have a strange problem with a fullscreen projector (Flash Player 9) on Mac OS X.

[Flashcoders] Why 512?
Someone asked me the other day, why the Sound class function computeSpectrum() returns specifically 512 floating point values. I know it returns 256 values for the left and right channels and that each value is a 32-bit floating point value of 4 bytes, but despite alot of Googling, I could find no explanation as to why it's 512 values (rather than 30 or 200,000). Maybe it's a audio specification, maybe it's a number the Adobe Flash team decided arbitrarily was sufficient to represend the sound frequencied. Does any one posses this knowledge?

Re: [Flashcoders] Why 512?
It's quicker to do an FFT with a length that is a power of 2 Can't remember exactly why, but I think the algorithm keeps splitting the array into 2 for each iteration of the calculation...
