Denvish, you're cool, but some other mods will ban you for very silly stuff :P

I third that. And I would also like to say that you are my hero for updating the complete list at the top of the last three pages in a row! That takes focus and determination and all sorts of other spiffy traits that I lack.

AS: Pathnames would probably be one worth doing. I know a lot of newbies have trouble grasping why their variables dissapear when they try calling them from movie clips and things. It could also include _root _level# _parent and as well as an explaination of global functions and vars.

AS: Trigonometry would be another worth doing. Explain how to call the tan cos and sin as well asn the inverse/arc tan cos and sin. Explain the atan2 and why its so spiffy. Also explain the difference between radians and degress and how to convert back and forth.

AS: Custom Objects Explain prototype and __proto__. Talk about inheritance and why its good to have and use in different projects. Object.registerClass() method. I think there are even some new ones in MX 2004 that I don't know about yet that you could talk about too.

Anyway, thats just a few ideas for MORE as threads if you are looking for one to do :)

already called it :P

Here's a new tutorial about elasticity :

By the way, thanks Denvish for your comment about my symbols tutorial

AS: Inventory 1

pretty crappy, but should be helpful for newbies

Anyone can post questions here. I'll make a tutorial accordingly, I'm not in the mood for anything I'm comitted to atm

How about something about parsing user inputed lines of text into actionscript commands? Or even better would be just using Flash to execute whatever the user typed without having to parse.

For example: some sort of game were you have to program your way through it. Like on the first screen there is static text at the top that says the next scene you seek is Scene 2. And then you have an input text box to type: on (release) {gotoAndPlay("Scene 2", 1);}. I know that you could just test against some strings for this case, but for harder tasks parsing it into actionscript and having Flash execute it would be better. (Last level could be something like crash the swf with an infinite loop!).

Anyway, I wanted to incorporate something similiar (I came up with that game idea just now) into a project I am curently working on, but found a work around that works better anyway. It was just an idea of something that I had wanted to do, but lacked the skill to do it. Actually right now I had a new idea how to accomplish it. Have Flash save the user inputed text as a cookie and then #include it? Might work, I havn't tried it. Anyway, if you are still looking for something to do, great, if not I won't take it personally.

there is a way, never looked into it :P I do my own parsing :) that's what the syntax checking stack was about.

nice idea though.

there is a command for displaying and modifying the code

more questions

fine I'll look it up for you :P

AS: Webcam Control

feel free to change it's name

AS: Replay Button

as basic as it gets ;)

Hey, what if we put a complexity level next to each tutorial, do you think that would be a good idea?

You mean besides the Beginner , Intermediate , Advanced levels they have already been assigned?

That's a good idea.Should I type beginner next to AS:Basics? ^__^

Yeah, that's the sort of thing I like to see covered. Clear answers to the most commonly asked questions, with a little detail explaining why/how the code works. That was the original concept behind the AS: threads; a way to cover the situations where you end up typing something you already typed several (hundred) times before. With these threads, you just need to post a link, and hopefully the question is answered.
Having said that, there's a place for the Advanced AS stuff, too; I've learnt some new useful hints, tips, and code from other peoples' threads. However, as Inglor has noticed, there's a limited demand for the more complex code, since the majority of people who come to the Flash forum asking questions are those who have only just started out with Flash - so the more basic the tutorial, the more often it will be linked. Just make sure if you're doing Basic AS: threads, that you don't make them overly complicated/long, since newbs are notorious for having short attention spans ;D

If anyone feels that any of these are in the wrong section, say so.

Wasn't the list supposed to be on the top of the 6th page?
Anyway,with this post you can get to the 6th list XD

denvish try to keep up with me, I'm at 14 ;)

expect more soon.

just noticed, if you could change it to "Syntax Checking Stack" since it's really what it does, that would be great

lol, I do have other obligations in RL (like, 3 kids and various graphic/web jobs). I may do one occasionally, but I'm unlikely to be keeping up with your maniac pace...

I have RL too :P I'll climb to 20 and then go back to doing stuff I need done arleady :P like finishing the second proposal, moving out, and that sorta stuff

RL? Whats RL?

</sarcasm>

Just a quick question: Would a thread on the most basic math operators (+,++,- etc.) be necessary? Including the precedence order in which Flash perfroms them.

maybe, maybe not, you'll have to explain ^ | & % === and others too, that would be worth the while, do you know how to use em?

Out of the ones you just stated, I know modulo and that it. I guess this one isn't the job for me.

You can make a part one and I'll make a part two ;)

Sure thing, I'll get started on part 1 now.

Are you guys looking for a UI component tutorial for Flash Mx Pro 2004? I would love to make a nice run throught of several components, how to use them, and example scripts.

AS:Math - Simple
I hope Inglor does do an AS:Math - Advanced, that would be cool.

Interesting point, the link back to AS:Main in that page i just posted doesn't work, I did the page 9999 thing, guess i put two many 9's in and went over the max limit.
