There is one more significant addition to the
Block
class that we made to create the
Die
class. It
is the following function:
public function makeDieClickedComputer() : void {
this.filters=[new flash.filters.GlowFilter(0xFF0000,70,4,4,3,3,false,false)];
}
Notice, that this function is nearly identical to the following function:
public function makeDieClicked() : void {
this.filters=[new flash.filters.GlowFilter(0xFFFF00,70,4,4,3,3,false,false)];
}
makeDieClickedComputer
simply makes the dice red instead of yellow when they are clicked. Why
two function instead of one? It's lazy coding folks, end of story. We apologize. We could have
passed in the color value to change instead of making two functions, but we thought this example
would help illustrate the computer AI a bit more than strictly optimized code.
The full code of the
Die
class follows:
package com.efg.games.dicebattle
{
import flash.filters.GlowFilter;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.display.Bitmap;
import flash.display.BitmapData;
import com.efg.framework.BlitSprite;
import com.efg.framework.TileSheet;
public class Die extends BlitSprite {
public var dieColor:Number;
public var dieValue:Number;
