[arnold30303]

this is my code for the Blue Guy : onClipEvent (enterFrame) { distance = 55; ux = _root.char._x; uy = _root.char._y; hx = this._x; hy = this._y; if (Math.sqrt((ux-hx)*(ux-hx)+(uy -hy)*(uy-hy))<distance && Key.isDown(Key.SPACE)) { _root.helpText.text = "Hello i am going to show you how to fly around the world.If you want to stop this conversations press ALT button on ur Keyboard"; } if(Key.isDown(Key.ALT)){ _root.helpText.text = ""; } }

[halo6wizdomify]

@arnold30303 AWESOME DUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[happyman22341]

i've realised something that this one you need flash cs3 because i used to have flash 8 and i tried it i didn't work. i got flash cs3 and it worked creepy eh? i think flash 8 doesn't have the multiplication sign * that mite be the problem pm me for scripts!i got it working like all the rpg tutorials this good guy has made!

[altu892]

onkeydown always better than if(Key.isDown())

[mk12121]

Fix this dude. Waaaaay too many errors!

[RNGbladestudios]

I got errors ')' expected" with bo symbol and "Statement must appear within on/onClipEvent handler" and "Unexpected '}' encountered" TIP s check styntax after one or two lines of script

[pasokd]

the code on the beginning of your flash tutorials are always different from the ones you use. FIX THIS!!!

everything else is perfect on all of your flash tutorials:)

[wilayafr]

thanks a lot !

[ThozmleDomre]

is this for cs4? its not working

[pasokd]

actionscript 2.0 not 3.0

[XsoulniteX]

lol you cut yourself off

[technodob]

is there a way to call an animation where your character is at. Like if i had an video clip of a man standing and then i push the right arrow key i would like to have the running animation (i already made the animation) take place of the man standing and whenever i release i want it to go back to man standing can you please help me.

[tarey13]

**Error** Scene=Scene 1, layer=Layer 1, frame=2:Line 1: Statement block must be terminated by '}'  onClipEvent(enterFrame) {

**Error** Scene=Scene 1, layer=Layer 1, frame=2:Line 9: Syntax error. }

Total ActionScript Errors: 2 Reported Errors: 2

[tarey13]

Can any1 send me the good code?

[alig96]

Hey PBJ i saw you had a health item wat would be the script for it cuz i tried:

onClipEvent(enterFrame) {

if(_root.hp.hitTest(this)) {

if(_root.hp <50);

_root.hp = +50;

unloadMovie(this);

}

}

[MaitreEauEau123]

alig96, What you can do is going onto youir health bar actions. the complete action would be: onClipEvent(enterFrame){ this._xscale = _root.hp; if(_root.hp<0){ _root.hp=0; } if(_root.character.hitTest(_ro­ot.health)){ this._xscale = 100; } } BTW "health" is the instance name of my health pack item. If somebody know how to make disappear the health pack item after, tell me

[alig96]

ty and btw if you want it to disipear type:

unloadMovie(this);

[MaitreEauEau123]

oops i put my comment as Spam =S

i wanted to say that the

"Do the guide" is actually create a man that will be a guid

[MaitreEauEau123]

for the text, you have to do like PBJ said

so add a dinamic text(instance name"helpText")

put it bottom of screen

and that's it

[MaitreEauEau123]

Hi Guys! I find a code to make the helpText appear!Its a bit different than PBJ's one tough. 1-Do the guide(dont worry about instance name for these actions 2-add these actions to the guide: onClipEvent(enterFrame){ if(_root.character._x<160){ if(Key.isDown(Key.SPACE)){ _root.helpText.text = "HI, I will help You in your quest"; _root.character._x = 160; _root.character._y = 275; } } } //this will place your player x and y correctly and the text will appear

[MaitreEauEau123]

Do the guide is create a guide

[MaitreEauEau123]

Can Somebody Write Teh Complete Code Here PLZZ!!

IM Trying To Get It But I Cant Understand!

And BTW Congratulation PBJ746 Really Good Tutorials!!

[dirryl]

[ZayLong]

wouldnt it be easier to just do a hitTest(_root.char) ?

[FeRcHoXSS]

[GGMadMan]

**Error** Scene=Scene 1, layer=Layer 1, frame=1:Line 1: Clip events are permitted only for movie clip instances onClipEvent(enterFrame) {

[GGMadMan]

thanks :)

[Renkay141]

man all of u ppl are lazy if u want to make a game u won't beable to put copy paste and that's it that is really easy so plz ppl don't be lazy

[fishyentertainment]

that made no sence at all

[Stickman917]

I already know that all but.. BO?! LOL

[Manifest222]

Guys i found a new way to do Character Interactions, Instead of making it so that you have to have like, the ux and stuff. Just make a box around the helper or interacter, and make that box have an alpha of 0, and then tell the game to make it so u have to be touching that box which is invisable around the interacter to interact. I'll make a vid of it.

[Manifest222]

Thanks!

[metamano]

....you seriously expect me to write all that crap down? PUT IT IN THE DESCRIPTION!!!

[alexk175]

@metamano You don't actually learn unless you copy it yourself...

[Wuzzly]

Do you think you could post up the code for the text? (Or at least the last part?) ^_^ Pretty please? Or could someone please email me the code. I've spent over a half an hour trying to figure out the last part. x_x

[PivotyPivoty]

what did you say when the cam was on the right when you were typing on the left?

[asaclardy]

SRSLY SOMEONE PM ME WITH THE CODE??

[PivotyPivoty]

at 6:40 you can see the other half of the code. i just watched it yesterday

[scottycd]

thx i was confused

[PivotyPivoty]

your videos really are helping me! thx

[chttli]

wow first time I got flash I din't understand what u wehere saying(wiriting) but now that I'm not a nob anymore I can understand IS VERY HELPFULL MAN

[djdawkins36]

u type fast

[thejlcman]

what script do i use if I want something to happen when a person uses the '1' key?

[kuromaru00]

Scene=Scene 2, Layer=Layer 3, Frame=96: Line 7: '(' expected if Math.sqrt((ux-hx)*(ux-hx)+(uy-­hy)*(uy-uy))<distan ce && Key.isDown(Key.BACKSPACE) {

is it becaouse im using flash 5?

[kuromaru00]

Clipboard Actions: Line 2: Statement must appear within onClipEvent handler OnClipEvent (enterFrame) { ??

[NicholasSta]

Wow, you should at least revise this and be better at this crap faggot.

[8Blaze]

why are you assigning the distance variable inside the enterFrame clipEvent? It should be in a onLoad clipEvent or else it will set distance to 55 each frame.

[Inzuki]

How can we see you typing while your recording the right side while your typing on the left side?

[stickmanaxis]

or give us some links to sites with codes

[stickmanaxis]

[ryancullen95]

on the bottom line it should be Math.sqrt.helpText.txt

then its:

onClipEvent(enterFrame)( distance = 55;

ux = _root.char.x;

uy = _root.char.y;

hx = this._x

hy = this._y

if(Math.sqrt((ux-hx)*(ux-hx)+(­uy-hy)*(uy-hy))<distance && Key.isDown (Key.SPACE)) (

Math.sqrt.helptxt.txt=.text= "hello!"

[gunfr34k4z01d]

dude you should do the spacing and the lines(Enter)

[sylphmw]

Sometimes when you write the code you don't move your cursor to that area so we don't see what you typed. I love your tutorials, but could you fix that pretty please. :)

[Lin3freak]

Um... I made mine where you could jump from your tutorial, and when I go up to the man nothing happens.

[pbj746]

what key did you use to make him jump

if its the space bar your going to have to change what key is pressed to talk to the man

[lr1100]

if u wanna know the code and some other...
