How to do an interactive Morse code Animation

Question

Hi everybody, thanks for viewing my message.

i wanna make an interactive morse code animation like in the Strangers things scene.

I am new on Animate.

The principle is to press buttons in Morse code so that the bulbs associated with the letters light up.
I planned 3 buttons: one for the "dot" (short presses), one for the "dash=(long presses), and a last to stop the shine. For example, I would like to be able to press the "dt" button and then the "dash button so that the letter A lights up. Only I do not manage to chain actions. I am familiar with some scripting.

so i need the scripting for one character so that i will copy that for every character.

please help me on this

Thanks for reading this loooooong message.

hoping for some scripting.

you need to use a timer (eg, Ticker in canvas/html) to do this properly so you can indicate separate letters and words.

then i'd use an object to define the library of dit's and dah's that define each letter/number. eg,

var obj = new Object();

obj["dit,dah"] = "A";

obj["dah,dah,dah,dit"] = "B";

etc

then assemble the array (eg, codeA) of dit/dah entered by the user for each letter and use the object to convert dit/dah to a letter. finally assemble the letters into an array (letterA) to form words.

letterA.push(obj[codeA.join()]);
