MyScript

To create a script Extend AbstractScriptController Override the update() method

You can keep working the way you want You donrsquot have to use scripts or controllers

But with scripts amp controllershellip

Re-usable loosely coupled code Target multiple scene nodes with a single script Easily build and share your own library of useful scripts Easily fetch and use the communities code snippets

only 1 script var kbScript KeyboardMoveScript = new KeyboardMoveScript() but it controls 2 targets cubeaddController(kbScript) sphereaddController(kbScript)

Easy access to Mousekeyboard properties and signals time deltaTime Scene A lot of other properties useful to script stuffhellip

if the right arrow key is downhellip if (keyboardkeyIsDown(KeyboardRIGHT)) targettransformappendTranslation(1)

Similar to EventENTER_FRAME but Lighter Customisable per-script laquo frame rate raquo

execute this script only once per second thisframerate = 1

Example move objects with the keyboard

public class KeyboardMoveController extends AbstractScriptController override protected function update(target ISceneNode) void

if (keyboardkeyIsDown(KeyboardRIGHT))

targettransformappendTranslation(1)

if (keyboardkeyIsDown(KeyboardLEFT))

targettransformappendTranslation(-1)

if (keyboardkeyIsDown(KeyboardUP))

targettransformappendTranslation(0 1)

if (keyboardkeyIsDown(KeyboardDOWN))

targettransformappendTranslation(0 -1)

if (keyboardkeyIsDown(KeyboardPAGE_UP))

targettransformappendTranslation(0 0 1)

if (keyboardkeyIsDown(KeyboardPAGE_DOWN))

targettransformappendTranslation(0 0 -1)

Usage

instanciate the script var kbScript KeyboardMoveScript = new KeyboardMoveScript()

add the script to a target

cubeaddController(kbScript)

remove the script from a target

cuberemoveController(kbScript)

Language Features

In 1992 Flash was called FutureSplash Animator and written by a single man Jonathan Gay

learning AGAL = learning GPU programming AGAL is awesome for 3D engines developers Low-level binary assembly code Cross-platform

AGAL is a nightmare for 3D applications

developers

With Minko you can program the GPU using ActionScript 30
