The Power of Finite State Machines: Application and Extension

The Power of Finite State Machines: Application and Extension

This entry is part 2 of 2 in the series The Power of Finite State Machines

Here’s the concluding part of our tutorial about creating a multi-state car using a finite state machine. In this part, you will see how easy it is to add more states as well as new features to the car. When finished, you’ll know exactly how to structure control for your FSM Object, which will be demonstrated when we add animation and sound.

This entry is part 1 of 2 in the series The Power of Finite State Machines

This two-part tutorial will cover creating a multi-state car using a finite state machine. We will start with Procedural FSM and progress into the State Pattern design pattern. Concept and creation will be our main focus during this first part; we will then proceed into application and extension during the second part.

Blow an Image Away with a Custom Wind Effect

Blow an Image Away with a Custom Wind Effect

Twice a month, we revisit some of our readers’ favorite posts from throughout the history of Activetuts+. This tutorial was first published in March, 2010.

In this tutorial, we will create a custom class which breaks a picture into a thousand pieces and simulates a wind blowing them away. I created this project purely with AS3 and FlashDevelop – Flash not required!
