AS Game Engine
Target Closest Enemy MovieClip
I’ve been thinking about how targeting the closest enemy would work and started experimenting with the algorithm. Basically AS has an array method called sortOn, that sorts objects properties in any order you want. Well, that’s the catch. It only sorts objects, not movieClips.
The work around is simple enough; when creating a new enemy object, just save a reference to the movieClip on stage inside the object’s property.

Game Weapons - Heat Seeking Missiles, Rockets, Torpedoes
This is a Flash ActionScript 2.0 heat seeking missile script for games. Includes AS2 dynamic smoke effects & dynamic animated explosion effects. Our missiles also need something to lock on to so I added a simple enemy random movement script.

Game Engine - Minimap & Radar
This script shows you how to create a game mini-map or radar for your Flash games using ActionScript 2.0.
How this works:
The mini map is 25% scale of the actual map so we multiply the current minimap player position by 0.25 to get the 25% scale position.
Equation:
minimap.player._x = map.player._x * 0.25
