[Flashcoders] Extract and use numbers from string

2007-05-19 Thread Johnny Zen 

Can anyone help me with this one.

i have movie clips named

location_0_0_mc

location_0_1_mc

location_1_0_mc

location_1_1_mc

set up in a grid style, so the number represent x and y or columns and rows
// location_x_y_mc

I need to a formula to work out if for example

var current_location = location_0_1_mc
var possible_location = location_1_1_mc


if (current_location X = possible_location X) {
//do this
}

if (current_location Y = possible_location Y) {
 //do this
}

etc etc

Can anyone help?

Hi,
Im not sure what you mean, the x for the clips is simply:
current_location._x

getting the reference is eg (if this is the movieclips parent):
this[location_+row+_+column]

parsing the x and y from the name can be done (quick and dirty) with:

var movieclipNameParts:Array = (+clipreference._name).split(_);
var x:Number = Number ( movieclipNameParts[ 1 ] );
var y:Number = Number ( movieclipNameParts[ 2 ] );
