Load a html file inside Flash
flash,actionscript,actionscript-2

First: You have a syntax error in these two lines: _player.x = MovieClip.(root).character.x + 5; _player.y = MovieClip.(root).character.y + 5; There should not be a period after MovieClip, so it should look like this: _player.x = MovieClip(root).character.x + 5; _player.y = MovieClip(root).character.y + 5; Second: You are always creating a...

How do I stop the edge of movieclips that extend the stage from entering stage boundaries in AS3?
actionscript-3,flash,actionscript,adobe,flash-cc
Sounds like you want to constrain the object so you can't scroll it to a point where it's edge is seen? In that case, you need to sanitize your value so it doesn't go beyond that point. So, for moving the object down, instead of just subtracting 200 like your...
When using the 'Class' datatype, how can I specify the type so I only accept subclass of a specific class?
actionscript-3,class,actionscript,superclass
If you are going to instantiate it anyway, why not accept an object instead which allows you to type it to :SuperClass? careless(SomeClass); //vs. careless(new SomeClass); Not too much of a problem there as far as your code goes. There are a few differences though: The object has to be...

In AS3/Flash, the bottom most layer is 0. So doing addChildAt(character, 1) would make your character the second to the bottom layer. addChildAt(character, 0) would make it the very bottom/back layer. If you want to make it the top most layer, you do any one of the following: addChild(character); //this...
