AS3 String VS Number

I was accidentally storing numbers as a strings in my objects.
Something like that:

data = {x: "200", y: "100"};

instead of that:

data = {x: 200, y: 100};

So, the problem starts when you try to sum or deduct these “numbers”.
For example,

trace(data.x+90);
Output: 20090
trace(data.x-90);
Output: 110

From ArcademPro to WordPress

I have found a mochi plugin for wordpress, that is very nice and easy to use.
This plugin with some wordpress theme modifications gives really nice flash games websites absolutely free!
All this thanx to the plugin and theme author – Emanuele Feronato.
So, ArcademPro is buggy, ugly and slow piece of code, that is why I have switched Free Flash Games website to wordpress engine.




ePassporte, bad experience

Well. I have created an ePassporte account to receive payment from one of my client. It was a couple weeks ago and ePassporte asked me to verify my account by adding US checking account. And what if I don’t live in USA? So, I submitted my US saving account that I have opened in my bank, just hoping that it will work and voilà… My ePassporte account is blocked, they ask for numerous scans of personal documents, checking account statements and blah-blah-blah.

Thanks to PayPal, for 2 years of use, no stupid account blocks and personal documents’ requests.




Flash Game License “Pay Commission” bug?

So, I’ve recently sold a source code for Instant Football through FGL, I’ve accepted buyers offer and received the payment.
Everything was fine, then I’ve decided to pay my commission to FGL and… “You don’t have any outstanding sales or bids! (When you do, they will appear here.)”
Oooops.
Ok. I’ve sent a message to admins, and FGL_Steve asked me for details, I’ve replied and…
Silence. 4 days. No comments, no answers to my messages.
Hmmm…
