I made A Maze and Action script 3.0 and everything works except when the player touches the exit box (a movie clip called exit) the maze wont go to my win screen.
If someone could help me that'd be great because this is a final project for school
here's my code
var rightArrow:Boolean = false;
var leftArrow:Boolean = false;
var upArrow:Boolean = false;
var downArrow:Boolean = false;
var speed:int = 5;
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, stage_onKeyDown);
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_UP, stage_onKeyUp);
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, stage_onEnterFrame);
function stage_onKeyDown(event:KeyboardEvent):void {
if(event.keyCode == Keyboard.RIGHT) rightArrow = true;
if(event.keyCode == Keyboard.LEFT) leftArrow = true;
if(event.keyCode == Keyboard.UP) upArrow = true;
if(event.keyCode == Keyboard.DOWN) downArrow = true;
}
function stage_onKeyUp(event:KeyboardEvent):void {
if(event.keyCode == Keyboard.RIGHT) rightArrow = false;
if(event.keyCode == Keyboard.LEFT) leftArrow = false;
if(event.keyCode == Keyboard.UP) upArrow = false;
if(event.keyCode == Keyboard.DOWN) downArrow = false;
}
function stage_onEnterFrame(event:Event):void {
var rect:Rectangle = player.getBounds(this);
var i:int = 0;
var xBump:int = 0;
var yBump:int = 0;
if(rightArrow) {
xBump = speed;
for(i = 0; i < speed; i++) {
if(maze.hitTestPoint(rect.right + i, player.y, true)) {
xBump = i - 1;
break;
}
}
}
if(leftArrow) {
xBump = -speed;
for(i = 0; i < speed; i++) {
if(maze.hitTestPoint(rect.left - i, player.y, true)) {
xBump = -i + 1;
break;
}
}
}
if(upArrow) {
yBump = -speed;
for(i = 0; i < speed; i++) {
if(maze.hitTestPoint(player.x, rect.top - i, true)) {
yBump = -i + 1;
break;
}
}
}
if(downArrow) {
yBump = speed;
for(i = 0; i < speed; i++) {
if(maze.hitTestPoint(player.x, rect.bottom + i, true)) {
yBump = i - 1;
break;
}
}
}
player.x += xBump;
player.y += yBump;
}
if(player.hitTestObject(exit)) {
gotoAndStop("win");
}
stop();
Your test:
if(player.hitTestObject(exit)) {
gotoAndStop("win");
}
appears to be outside the function stage_onEnterFrame and is thus only executed once. Make sure the closing brace of the function:
player.x += xBump;
player.y += yBump;
} // this one
Comes after the test, like so:
}
player.x += xBump;
player.y += yBump;
if(player.hitTestObject(exit)) {
gotoAndStop("win");
}
} // closing function here, NOT above
I have a simple game where the player needs to collect 4 game objects within 30 sec. Now I already created the timer, so I need to let the game know that if all game objects are collected under the time limit the player wins.
This is my code so far:
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class GameState : MonoBehaviour
{
public static int count = 0;
public float seconds = 30;
public float minutes = 0;
// Use this for initialization
void Start ()
{
}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update ()
{
if (seconds <= 0)
{
seconds = 30;
if (minutes >= 1)
{
minutes -- ;
}
else
{
minutes = 0;
seconds = 0;
GameObject.Find("TimerText").guiText.text = minutes.ToString("f0") + ":0" + seconds.ToString("f0");
}
}
else
{
seconds -= Time.deltaTime;
}
if (Mathf.Round(seconds) <=9)
{
GameObject.Find("TimerText").guiText.text = minutes.ToString("f0") + ":0" + seconds.ToString("f0");
}
else
{
GameObject.Find("TimerText").guiText.text = minutes.ToString("f0") + ":" + seconds.ToString("f0");
}
if(count >= 1)
{
print("You Won!");
}
}
void OnTriggerEnter(Collider collide)
{
if (collide.transform.tag == "Cube")
{
count = count + 1;
Destroy (collide.gameObject);
}
}
}
Note: cube is one of the game object that needs to be picked up.
you could interrupt the game or show a victory menu or something when you have all the cubes collected
void Update ()
{
bool cubescollected = false;
if(cubescollected == 4)
{
ShowVictoryOrSomething();
cubescollected = true
}
if(cubescollected == true)
return;
... your timer code
}

this is a "clone" of Asteroids. Some of you who have been around maybe a little longer than myself have probably played it in an arcade. Anyways, I wrote this for a final project in my Java course, but could never get to work completely. It starts up just fine, you can turn and shoot, but not move forward. I'm not worried about moving right now though. What happens after applet starts is music plays and an "asteroid" travels across the screen. If you shoot the asteroid or shoot 3 times in any direction, a thread exception occurs.
Exception in thread "Thread-3" java.lang.NullPointerException
at AsteroidsGame.updateAsteroids(AseroidsGame.java:161)
at AsteroidsGame.run(AsteroidsGame.java:115)
at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:722)
Having looked around online has benefited me very little. Most of what I have learned was self taught and not as easy to wrap my head around. I'm not exactly sure what to do here to resolve this exception. In another thread on stack, it was mentioned to use an ArrayList because the array was not formerly declared with a size. Tinkered with that; never got it to work.
I need ideas/suggestions/criticism. I want to get this to work just so I can say I finished it.

thanks for looking.
---------------------Edit 12/9/2012------------------------
Tried debugging with NetBeans IDE 7.2.1. It improperly depicts the turning of ship and gives a completely different error:
Exception in thread "Thread-3" java.lang.NullPointerException
at AsteroidsGame.run(AsteroidsGame.java:122)
at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:722)
It is directing attention to the Shot[] shots array inside the run method.
This could be expected as the array for Asteroid[] and Shot[] are set up the same.
I currently working on a Cocos2D Mac Game in Objective-C.
I've got the movement working but i have one more question ..
I use this code to move my player, it is a fly so it needs free movement in all directions.
Keyboard event:
- (void)ccKeyDown:(NSEvent*)keyDownEvent
{
// Get pressed key (code)
NSString * character = [keyDownEvent characters];
unichar keyCode = [character characterAtIndex: 0];
// Player movement
if (keyCode == 119) {
playerMoveUp = TRUE;
} else if (keyCode == 115) {
playerMoveDown = TRUE;
}
if (keyCode == 100) {
playerMoveLeft = TRUE;
} else if (keyCode == 97) {
playerMoveRight = TRUE;
}
}
- (void)ccKeyUp:(NSEvent*)keyUpEvent
{
// Get pressed key (code)
NSString * character = [keyUpEvent characters];
unichar keyCode = [character characterAtIndex: 0];
// Player movement
if (keyCode == 119) {
playerMoveUp = FALSE;
} else if (keyCode == 115) {
playerMoveDown = FALSE;
}
if (keyCode == 100) {
playerMoveLeft = FALSE;
} else if (keyCode == 97) {
playerMoveRight = FALSE;
}
}
Gametime loop:
-(void) tick: (ccTime) dt
{
// Get player current position
NSInteger playerPositionX = player.position.x;
NSInteger playerPositionY = player.position.y;
// Player movement
if (playerMoveUp == TRUE) {
player.position = ccp(playerPositionX, playerPositionY + 1);
}
if (playerMoveDown == TRUE) {
player.position = ccp(playerPositionX, playerPositionY - 1);
}
if (playerMoveLeft == TRUE) {
player.position = ccp(playerPositionX + 1, playerPositionY);
}
if (playerMoveRight == TRUE) {
player.position = ccp(playerPositionX - 1, playerPositionY);
}
}
My problem is when my player is moving left it's not possible to add the up key the same time, so the player will be moving left and up. What is the best way to achieve this?
There is a simple-simple trick: declare an array of bool like bool arrows[4], where each element is an arrow button state and true == pressed. Now you set an array element to true in keyDown event and to false in keyUp. The last thing you need - a timer to check this array and move objects.
Actually, the timer a better solution than regular event handling because you can control "keys processing speed".
