[jagunco]

Hello to all, does someone have proto to FPS control and to control the direction of playing one MC, back and forward, i tried to go to proto layer, but what they have is not good

thanks

[kode]

// methods
MovieClip.prototype.playCtrl = function(dir, fps) {
this.stop();
this.play = function() {
var frame = this._currentframe+dir;
if (frame<1) {
frame += this._totalframes;
} else if (frame>this._totalframes) {
frame -= this._totalframes;
}
this.gotoAndStop(frame);
updateAfterEvent();
};
this.$interval = setInterval(this, "play", 1000/fps);
};
MovieClip.prototype.stopCtrl = function() {
clearInterval(this.$interval);
this.play = MovieClip.prototype.play;
delete this.$interval;
};
/* usage

one frame forward at 12 fps:
myMovieClip.playCtrl(1, 12);

two frames backward at 24 fps:
myMovieClip.playCtrl(-2, 24);

stop
myMovieClip.stopCtrl();

Kode, what is the $ used for ? Is it to avoid the keyword play ? Or is it just a variable name ?

[kode]

Yeah, that's the main reason. :P

[Voetsjoeba]

Argh :P

Which one is it ? :P

[kode]

The first one. :P
Now that I think about it, I should overwrite the play method to stop people from messing up the code, and then restore it in the stopCtrl method.

PS. Am I going crazy or did you edit your post?

[Voetsjoeba]

Both :P

[kode]

...Yep, that's what I thought. :P
