I’m currently just venturing into AS3 in classes and am building a tower defense game from the ground up, what I need to know is there a way to call in a second array to replace the first, while displacing the first one from the scene?
Here’s the code that I’m pretty sure I need to add something into:
private var level1:Array = new Array(
0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 3, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
2, 1, 1, 5, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 4, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 6, 0, 0, 0,
0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0,
0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0,
0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0,
0, 0, 0, 7, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 4, 0, 0, 0,
0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0
);
private var level2:Array = new Array(
0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
0, 0, 7, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 3,
0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,

cost1_txt.text = turret1.cost.toString();
for (var i:uint = 0; i < rows; i++)
{
for (var j:uint = 0; j < cols; j++)
{
var tile:Tile = new Tile(level1[counter]);
tile.x = startX + ((tile.width + space) * j);
tile.y = startY;
if (level1[counter] == 0)
{
tile.buttonMode = true; //makes the hand visible so you know where is clickable
tile.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, spawnTurret);
}
if (level1[counter] == 2)
{
startPoint = tile;
}
if (level1[counter] == 3)
{
endPoint = tile;
}
if (level1[counter] >=4)

wayPoints.push(tile);

counter++
}
startY += tile.height + space;
}
enemyTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, spawnEnemy);
enemyTimer.start();
waveTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, startWave);
update ();
}
Although… I might need to put the update in this area
private function spawnEnemy(e:TimerEvent):void
{
//trace(e.target.x + " " + e.target.y)
if (enemyTimer.currentCount == 10)
{
waveTimer.start();
}
if (waveTimer.currentCount<=2 || waveTimer.currentCount>=4 && waveTimer.currentCount!=10)
{
en = new Enemy();
en.x = startPoint.x;
en.y = startPoint.y;//284 will place closeto center
addChild(en);
enemies.push(en);
}
if (waveTimer.currentCount == 3)
{
fen = new FastEnemy();
fen.x = startPoint.x;
fen.y = startPoint.y;
addChild(fen);
fastEnemies.push(fen);
}
if (waveTimer.currentCount == 10)
{
sen = new StrongEnemy();
sen.x = startPoint.x;
sen.y = startPoint.y;
addChild(sen);
strongEnemies.push(sen);
}
}
(And I am using multiple ASC files to do my coding, this is all from my GAME class… my tiles are from a different class but my Arrays place them down)
What I’m looking to do is that after the third wave (just for level one! so the level1 array) I want to (if the player still has lives) switch to my level2 Array and clear the board of all turrets… Any ideas how I do this?
