30th August 2009 Week 21

Name: Wee You

With the discussions we had last week, Meiyi sent me an update on the graphics. Hence, I spent most of the time this week implementing the changes that we made. This includes 2 new scenes in Level 3. I realized that I forgot to ask for a graphic of a message box, so I went to a previous level, took the message box from there, and edited it to put it into the game. It looks great! I could be an artist one day!

Jokes aside, the drag and drop issues continue to be a hassle, as I continue to research (in vain) for a way to search for it. I faced a major problem in level 4. I had always used the height and the width to handle drop target checking due to a problem that I thought was a flash problem, but I couldn’t now, as all of them are of the same height and width! I asked Mr. Chong Ming for help. He helped me debug and explain about some flash things, and I realize that I have to use e.target.dropTarget.parent.name instead of e.target.dropTarget.name. Did a lot of editing to all drag and drop games.
