Question

how to get variables IN a loop to post their results outside the loop for use by addchild commands.

wondering how you do this as i'm not having good luck figuring this out.

 

 

ok i have a loader that grabs the contents of a swf and on its own, will load just fine to the stage as all of the addchild etc commands are IN the loop), problem is  as soon as separatea the two, they don't see the commands anymore. i know that stuff in a {} set is like this...and wonder how you get it out without a battle. i need to be able to access them outside the loop so the addchild commands can place them in the correct symbol with as3 name etc attached already.

add the loop variables as properties of objects.

this is where i'm having the problem spliting this at.

 

main timeline :

function LoadCompleteF(e:Event):void{
var A = ["Front_Leg_6","Back_Leg_6","Back_Leg_6"];
var E : Class = Class(getDefinitionByName (A[0]));
var F : Class = Class(getDefinitionByName (A[1]));
var G :Class = Class(getDefinitionByName(A[2]));

var obj:Object= new E();

 

 

on the symbol i'm trying to update (1 of 3)

 

addChild(DisplayObject(obj));
obj.x=100;
obj.y=500;

 

the next 2 are obj2, and 3 and no major changes.

 

it works together, but isn't letting me separate it, i know why as its all in the brackets so they only work in that section.

 

 

 

 

 

repeats for 2 and 3....

 

 

says possible undfined obj....

 

can't win for trying some days. did figure out how to store the clothing,pet profile and etc using a empty array and push command to update the array to what was selected by the user.  i win one and lose one it seems on this 🙂

id is defined in what class?

id is needed in what other class?.


in each of the symbols was a this id="name of part"

 

look what happens when i renamed them var id ="nane of part'

some ad was running audio while i recorded it, since its unlisted youtube video i'm not too worried....

 

this looks almost like id is a LOADER on its own am i correct going "hey give me whatever x's color and etc is? and send it HERE. i thought this was wrong as generally variables don't all have the same name, but apparently in different classes, its fine 🙂

 

this is as far as i got, but thought mabe you could highliight a path on this discovery. all i did to "load" this was use a existing video i animated using a prebuilt wireframe. figured the video would show more whats going on than a screenshot. mabe jpexs didn't manage it correctly as thats how i'm looking at the code and looking at code you wrote and code jpexs wrote is ...scary sometimes esp if the code isn't running to speak all the way.
