I am working on a simple reusable custom Layer in Cocos2d-html5 to manage a classic continuous background scroller. I initially created this in my main game layer, where I got it working, but when I moved it to its own BackgroundScroller Layer everything works except that the Schedule, whether set from the Main Layer or in a method inside of BackgroundScroller the function "scroll" never gets called.
What can cause a schedule to be registered but not fire? Is it a scope issue? Should I schedule the event on the BackgroundScroller or from within the code that is instantiating it?
onEnter: function(){
var self = this;
this._super();
winSize = cc.director.getWinSize();
centerPos = cc.p(winSize.width/2, winSize.height/2);
bs = new BackgroundScroller("https://fbcdn-sphotos-f-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xap1/v/t1.0-9/1014377_10153225997278888_209146662968373758_n.jpg?oh=287c045d5b8752581f8bdce968312c5c&oe=55BBA0B3&__gda__=1437658479_65b312f58967c3e1bd0ddb07260395cb",
winSize, centerPos, BackgroundScroller.Speeds.MEDIUM_SLOW);
this.addChild(bs);
bs.startScroll();
}
Here is the BackgrounScroller custom layer's code:
var BackgroundScroller = cc.Layer.extend( /** #lends cc.Layer# */ {
_bgSprites: [],
/* This is the interesting bit */
startScroll: function(scrollSpeed) {
scrollSpeed = scrollSpeed || this.scrollSpeed;
cc.log('Start Scroll:' + scrollSpeed);
this.schedule(this.scroll, scrollSpeed);
this.scheduleUpdate();
},
scroll: function(dt) {
debugger;
for (var i = 0; i < this._bgSprites.length; i++) {
var bgSprite = this._bgSprites[i];
bgSprite.setPositionX(bgSprite.getPosition().x - 1);
this.checkIsOffEdge(bgSprite);
}
},
ctor: function(bgSpriteOrCallbackFunction, winSize, centerPos, scrollSpeed) {
this._super();
this.scrollSpeed = scrollSpeed;
this.winSize = winSize || cc.director.getWinSize();
this.centerPos = centerPos || cc.p(this.winSize.width / 2, this.winSize.height / 2);
if (typeof bgSpriteOrCallbackFunction == "function") {
this.setupBackgroundSprite = bgSpriteOrCallbackFunction;
} else {
this.bgSpriteName = bgSpriteOrCallbackFunction;
}
this._bgSprites = [];
},
onEnter: function() {
this.setupBackgroundSprites();
},
stopScroll: function() {
this.pause();
},
/**
* Sets up sprites with either the Background sprite name or the callback function specified in the ctor.
* #returns void
*/
setupBackgroundSprites: function() {
cc.log("Setup background sprites");
this.totalBgWidth = 0;
var bgSpriteWidth = 0;
while (this.totalBgWidth < this.winSize.width * 2) {
var bgSprite = this.setupBackgroundSprite();
this._bgSprites.push(bgSprite);
bgSprite.setAnchorPoint(0, 0);
bgSpriteWidth = bgSprite.getBoundingBox().width;
this.addChild(bgSprite);
this.totalBgWidth += bgSpriteWidth;
this.maximumBgExtent = this.totalBgWidth - bgSpriteWidth;
var posN = (this._bgSprites.length - 1) * bgSprite.getBoundingBox().width; // Stack them left to right
bgSprite.setPositionX(posN);
}
cc.log("BgSprites in background sprites:" + this._bgSprites);
},
setupBackgroundSprite: function() {
var bgSprite = new cc.Sprite(this.bgSpriteName)
return bgSprite;
},
checkIsOffEdge: function(sprite) {
var spriteBB = sprite.getBoundingBox();
if (spriteBB.x + spriteBB.width < 0) {
sprite.setPositionX(this.maximumBgExtent - 1);
}
}
});
BackgroundScroller.Speeds = {
"SLOW": 0.5,
"MEDIUM_SLOW": 0.005,
"MEDIUM": 0.001,
"MEDIUM_FAST": 0.0005,
"FAST": 0.0001
};
I figured it out. I encapsulated everything but the schedule in the BackgroundScroller layer. In MainLayer I set the schedule and it calls "scroll" on the BackgroundScroller.
I'm still not sure why it wasn't working, but this makes sense--the parent layer is where all of this logic should be managed anyway.

as we can see in this example Animals_on_the_Beach_Game the animal's images are drag-able and can be drop ever where.... but I want to change it in the way that it just can drop on the specific place ... what can I do ?
thank you :)
This is more of a design question, as letting go of the mouse button isn't something you can prevent. It would also be non-intuitive to keep the image attached to the mouse position as you would then need a new mouse event to associate with dropping it. What I've done for a drag and drop UI was to either (1) destroy the dropped shape, or if that wasn't an option, (2) animate the shape back (i.e. snap back) to its original position. Alternatively, you might (3) find the closest likely valid drop target and snap to that location.
First you define lionOrigin, that maybe you already have.
You have to implement the call on the dragend event of the object dragged, so let's say the lion. You have to check position of the lion in relation to the end desired position, let's call it lionDestiny. That can be done with a simple grometry: calculate the distance between to point. We do that with distanceA2B() function.
Now you can establish an offset inside wich you can snap the object, as it is close enough. If the minimal offset is not achieved, then you place the lion back on lionOrigin.
Al last, in konvajs you can use .x() and .y() to easily get or set position to lion.
Something like this:
var lionOrigin = [50,50];
var lionDestiny = [200,200];
var offset = 20;
distanceA2B(a,b) {
return Math.sqrt( ((a[0]-b[0])*(a[0]-b[0])) + ((a[1]-b[1])*(a[1]-b[1])) );
}
lion.on('dragend', (e) => {
var d = distanceA2B([lion.x(),lion.y()],lionDestiny);
if(d<offset){
lion.x(lionDestiny[0]);
lion.y(lionDestiny[1]);
}else{
lion.x(lionOrigin[0]);
lion.y(lionOrigin[1]);
}
});
Hope this helps!
It would have been better if you could explain your question more when you say you want to move any shape to a specific position. Though konva.js provides you with various events through which you can do this. For example, suppose you want to interchange the location of two shapes when you drag and move the first shape to the second and drop it there. In this case, you can use dragend event of konva. So when you move the target element to another element and drop it there, check if they are intersecting each other or not and then interchange their coordinates with each other.
Here is the function to find the intersection between two elements:
haveIntersection(r1, r2) {
return !(
r2.x > r1.x + r1.width ||
r2.x + r2.width < r1.x ||
r2.y > r1.y + r1.height ||
r2.y + r2.height < r1.y
);
}
And from here, you can try to understand the functionality. Though it's in nuxt.js but the events and scripts would be almost same if you are using only javascript. You can find sample code with an explanation for replacing the location of two shapes with each other. So even if you don't want to replace the locations but you want to move your target element to any position this will make you understand how to do this.
We use an embedded map to track our location while driving in the field. Currently the map rotates to match the GPS's orientation. We've found that to be very disorienting and I'd like to lock the orientation North (0 degrees). I still would like the map to track location and indicate heading if available. Below is the snipped from the map's javascript file pertaining to geolocation.
map.addLayer(addressLayer);
// Geolocation marker
var markerEl = document.getElementById('geolocation_marker');
var marker = new ol.Overlay({
positioning: 'center-center',

// is time aware.

trackingOptions: {
maximumAge: 10000,
enableHighAccuracy: true,

}
}));
var deltaMean = 500; // the geolocation sampling period mean in ms
// Listen to position changes
geolocation.on('change', function(evt) {
var position = geolocation.getPosition();
var accuracy = geolocation.getAccuracy();
var heading = geolocation.getHeading() || 0;
var speed = geolocation.getSpeed() || 0;
var m = Date.now();
addPosition(position, heading, m, speed);
map.getView().setCenter(geolocation.getPosition());
document.getElementById("locate").style.backgroundColor = 'rgba(0,128,0,1)';
locateUser = true;
});
geolocation.on('error', function(error) {
var errors = {
1: 'Permission denied to locate device',
2: 'Position unavailable',
3: 'Request timeout'
};

Here is the relevant ol3 code that's causing the rotation to happen.
By setting view.rotation = 0; you may resolve the issue.
I'm trying to link two jQuery UI sliders so they'll add up to 100%. I've found the perfect solution for three sliders here on SO, but for some reason I am unable to get the math to add up correctly when modifying this jsFiddle example to strip out the third slider: http://jsfiddle.net/gWbMp/3/
Can anyone help me out in forking this to simply include two sliders instead of three?
Here's the (close) javascript I've ended up with but it's not quite right:
var min = 0;
var max = 100;
$("input").change(function(){
console.log("a");
var index = $(this).attr('class').substring(0,1);
$("#slider_"+ index).slider('value', this.value);
refreshSliders( index - 0 );
});
$('.selector').slider({
animate : true
}, {
min : min
}, {
max : max
}, {
change : function(event, ui) {
totalvalue = $("#slider_1").slider("value") + $("#slider_2").slider("value");
$('.1percent').val($("#slider_1").slider("value"));
$('.2percent').val($("#slider_2").slider("value"));
}
}, {
slide : function(event, ui) {
$('.1percent').val($("#slider_1").slider("value"));
$('.2percent').val($("#slider_2").slider("value"));
}
});
$("#slider_1").slider('value', 10);
$("#slider_2").slider('value', 90);
$('.1percent').val($("#slider_1").slider("value"));
$('.2percent').val($("#slider_2").slider("value"));
function refreshSliders(slidermainin) {
var value1 = $("#slider_1").slider("option", "value");
var value2 = $("#slider_2").slider("option", "value");
var valuechange = (value1 + value2) - 100;
var valuemain = 0, valueother1 = 0;
switch(slidermainin) {
case 1:
slidermain = "#slider_1";
sliderother1 = "#slider_2";
valuemain = value1;
valueother1 = value2;
break;
case 2:
slidermain = "#slider_2";
sliderother1 = "#slider_1";
valuemain = value2;
valueother1 = value1;
break;
}
if (valueother1 === 0) {
if (valueother1 === 0) {
if (valuechange <= 0) {
$(sliderother1).slider('value', valueother1 - (valuechange / 2));
}
} else {
if (valuechange <= 0) {
$(sliderother1).slider('value', valueother1 - (valuechange / 2));
} else {
$(sliderother1).slider('value', valueother1 - valuechange);
}
}
} else {
$(sliderother1).slider('value', valueother1 - (valuechange / 2));
}
}
var bindSliders = function(selector, value) {
$(selector).bind("slidechange slide", function(event, ui) {
event.originalEvent && (event.originalEvent.type == 'mousemove' || event.originalEvent.type == 'mouseup' || event.originalEvent.type == 'keydown') && refreshSliders(value);
});
};
bindSliders("#slider_1", 1);
bindSliders("#slider_2", 2);
I think this can be done much shorter for two sliders
You can rewrite refreshSliders function to calculate second value on the basis of max value
And call it directly on slider "change" and "slide" (or even just second one)
function refreshSliders(thisSlider, ui){
var thisNum = $(thisSlider).attr("id").replace("slider_", "");
var otherNum = (thisNum==1)?2:1;
$('.'+thisNum+'percent').val(ui.value);
if ($("#slider_"+otherNum).slider("value")!=max-ui.value){
$("#slider_"+otherNum).slider("value", max-ui.value);
$('.'+otherNum+'percent').val(max-ui.value);
}
}
have a look at this jsfiddle, i forked it from original one and adjusted a bit: http://jsfiddle.net/paulitto/fBxCm/1/
I have an mc with some tweens applied to it, but if you roll out before they are done they break. I don't want to disable the button while tweens are running because if you roll out while they run you confuse the user because nothing happens and you get stuck in that frame.
What I want is to acknowledge the rollout during the tween (or after) but not run until the tweens are finished. I cannot seem to access the onmotionfinished of the tween in the rollover function from the rollout function however.
Any ideas?
If it helps here is my rollover:
buttons[i].onRollOver = function() {
var oppX:Number = Stage.width-this._x;
var oppY:Number = Stage.height-this._y;
if (oppX-209.8<=20) {
var difference:Number = Math.abs(20-(oppX-209.8));
oppX += difference;
} else if (oppX+209.8>=780) {
var difference:Number = Math.abs(780-(oppX+209.8));
oppX -= difference;
}
if (oppY-172.1<=20) {
var difference:Number = Math.abs(20-(oppY-172.1));
oppY += difference;
} else if (oppY+172.1>=580) {
var difference:Number = Math.abs(580-(oppY+172.1));
oppY -= difference;
}
var TweenX:Tween = new Tween(circle, "_x", mx.transitions.easing.Strong.easeOut, circle._x, oppX, 1, true);
var TweenY:Tween = new Tween(circle, "_y", mx.transitions.easing.Strong.easeOut, circle._y, oppY, 1, true);
circle.gotoAndPlay("out");
myColor = new Color(this);
myColor.setTint(153,255,0,30);
for (MovieClip in buttons) {
delete buttons[MovieClip].onEnterFrame;
if (buttons[MovieClip] != this) {
buttons[MovieClip].enabled = false;
myColor = new Color(buttons[MovieClip]);
myColor.setTint(255,255,255,80);
myColor = new Color(buttons[MovieClip]._line);
myColor.setTint(255,255,255,80);
}
}
};
and my rollOut:
buttons[i].onRollOut = function() {
this.onMotionComplete = function() {
var TweenX:Tween = new Tween(circle, "_x", mx.transitions.easing.Strong.easeOut, circle._x, 400, 0.5, true);
var TweenY:Tween = new Tween(circle, "_y", mx.transitions.easing.Strong.easeOut, circle._y, 300, 0.5, true);
TweenY.onMotionFinished = function() {
for (MovieClip in buttons) {
buttons[MovieClip].enabled = true;
}
};
this._parent.circle.gotoAndPlay("in");
for (MovieClip in buttons) {
buttons[MovieClip].onEnterFrame = function() {
moveButtons(this);
controlButtons(this);
};
myColor = new Color(buttons[MovieClip]);
myColor.setTint(255,255,255,0);
}
};
Realised that it wasn't the tween causing most of the problems that it was the gotoandplay because i had my stop(); calls on the same frame as the markers on that movieclip causing them to get stuck.
Did have some trouble with tween (the rollout jumped back to the rollover position if its tweens were called mid tween) but I decided to push the tweens to an array making them globally accessible and purge the array onmotionfinished then in the rollout check to see if the array contains anything and if so kill off the old tweens first.
Final product:
buttons[i].onRollOver = function() {
circle.active = this;
var oppX:Number = Stage.width-this._x;
var oppY:Number = Stage.height-this._y;
if (oppX-209.8<=20) {
var difference:Number = Math.abs(20-(oppX-209.8));
oppX += difference;
} else if (oppX+209.8>=780) {
var difference:Number = Math.abs(780-(oppX+209.8));
oppX -= difference;
}
if (oppY-172.1<=20) {
var difference:Number = Math.abs(20-(oppY-172.1));
oppY += difference;
} else if (oppY+172.1>=580) {
var difference:Number = Math.abs(580-(oppY+172.1));
oppY -= difference;
}
var TweenX:Tween = new Tween(circle, "_x", mx.transitions.easing.Strong.easeOut, circle._x, oppX, 1, true);
var TweenY:Tween = new Tween(circle, "_y", mx.transitions.easing.Strong.easeOut, circle._y, oppY, 1, true);
TweenY.onMotionFinished = function () {
tweens.length = 0;
}
tweens.push(TweenX,TweenY);
circle.gotoAndPlay("out");
myColor = new Color(this);
myColor.setTint(153,255,0,30);
for (MovieClip in buttons) {
delete buttons[MovieClip].onEnterFrame;
if (buttons[MovieClip] != this) {
buttons[MovieClip].enabled = false;
myColor = new Color(buttons[MovieClip]);
myColor.setTint(255,255,255,80);
myColor = new Color(buttons[MovieClip]._line);
myColor.setTint(255,255,255,80);
}
}
};
buttons[i].onRollOut = function() {
if (tweens.length != 0) {
tweens[0].stop();
tweens[1].stop();
delete tweens[0];
delete tweens[1];
tweens.length = 0;
}

I am using the following code to tween an movieclip once _global.choiceMade equals 1...
onClipEvent (load) {
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (_global.choiceMade == 1) {
var myTweenX:Tween = new Tween(this, "_x", mx.transitions.easing.Back.easeOut, this._x, -349, 0.5, True);
}
}
This is contained within each frame of the main timeline. The first time it runs fine but on the next frame it runs incredibly slow (takes about 12 seconds not 0.5 and is very choppy), if I then return to the first frame and run it again now this time it is extremely slow.
I can't work out why its doing this my CPU stays around 6-15% while its running so it can't be too demanding.
Updated to show rest of my code:
On main timeline have a frame each containing a movieclip. On the timeline of each of these movieclips contains:
//tint an object with a color just like Effect panel
//r, g, b between 0 and 255; amount between 0 and 100
Color.prototype.setTint = function(r, g, b, amount) {
var percent = 100-amount;
var trans = new Object();
trans.ra = trans.ga=trans.ba=percent;
var ratio = amount/100;
trans.rb = r*ratio;
trans.gb = g*ratio;
trans.bb = b*ratio;
this.setTransform(trans);

MovieClip.prototype.scaleXY = function(to){
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
this._alpha = to-(to-this._alpha)/1.2;
if(this._alpha > to-1 && this._alpha < to+1){
this._alpha = to;
delete this.onEnterFrame
}
}
}
scoreUpdated = 0;
Answer = 1;
_global.choiceMade = 0;
Buttons = new Array(this.buttonHolder.True, this.buttonHolder.False);
Answers = new Array(this.Correct, this.Wrong);
for (i=0; i<Answers.length; i++) {
Answers[i]._alpha = 0;
}
for (b=0; b<Buttons.length; b++) {
Buttons[b].thisValue = b;
}
In this movieclip there are two movieclip buttons (True and False) containing this code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
this.onRollOver = function() {
this.gotoAndStop("over");
};
this.onRollOut = function() {
this.gotoAndStop("up");
};
this.onPress = function() {
this.gotoAndStop("down");
};
this.onReleaseOutside = function() {
this.gotoAndStop("up");
};
this.onRelease = function() {
this.gotoAndStop("down");
whichChoice = this;
_global.choiceMade = 1;
counter = 0;
};
if (_global.choiceMade == 1) {
this.enabled = false;
this._parent.scoreNow = _global.score;
this._parent.scoreOutOf = (this._parent._parent._currentframe)- 1 + ( _global.choiceMade);
if (thisValue == this._parent._parent.Answer && whichChoice == this) {
myColor = new Color(this);
myColor.setTint(0,204,0,13);
this._parent._parent.Answers[0]._alpha = 100;
this._parent._parent.Answers[0].scaleXY(100);
this.tick.swapDepths(1000);
if (counter == 0) {
_global.score++;
counter++;
}
}
else if (thisValue == this._parent._parent.Answer) {
myColor = new Color(this);
myColor.setTint(0,204,0,13);
this.tick.swapDepths(1000);
}
else if (whichChoice == this) {
this._parent._parent.Answers[1]._alpha = 100;
this._parent._parent.Answers[1].scaleXY(100);
myColor = new Color(this);
myColor.setTint(255,0,0,13);
this.cross.swapDepths(1000);
}
else {
myColor = new Color(this);
myColor.setTint(255,0,0,13);
myColor.setTint(255,0,0,13);
this.cross.swapDepths(1000);
}
}
}
The script at the top is on a movieclip these buttons are contained in called buttonHolder which does what it says, and tweens the buttons across the screen to reveal a next button once an answer is chosen.
From what I can see, as long as you have choiceMade == 1 you create a new effect! which is not ok. because in 1 sec at 15 fps you will have 15 tweens running :(
try yo set choiceMade = 0 or somehting else than 1
onClipEvent (enterFrame)
{
if (_global.choiceMade == 1)
{
_global.choiceMade = -1;
var myTweenX:Tween = new Tween(this, "_x", mx.transitions.easing.Back.easeOut, this._x, -349, 0.5, True);
}
}
Without seeing the rest of your code it's hard to see exactly what's going on. But it looks like you never change choiceMade and it continuously recreates the tween.
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (_global.choiceMade == 1) {
var myTweenX:Tween = new Tween(this, "_x", mx.transitions.easing.Back.easeOut, this._x, -349, 0.5, True);
_global.choiceMade = 0;
}
}
