[Golist] HydroSequence Looping Issue

Or you may be able to just wrap this thing in a function and then call it from itself with one of those onComplete methods.

I haven’t used HydroTween yet, but you could instead accomplish this with a Timer.

Something like

var loopTimer:Timer = new Timer(1000, 0);
loopTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, loopHandler);
loopTimer.start();

function loopHandler(t:TimerEvent):void{
hydro sequence…
}

Subject: [Golist] HydroSequence Looping Issue

Hello fellow GoList members,

I would really appreciate it if someone can help me out with this issue. My project will be ready to launch as soon as this is fixed.

I am having an issue with a HydroSequence instance that I need to loop indefinitely. As far as I understand it, a HydroSequence class instance
has a public property called "repeater" that needs to be set to Repeater.INFINITE in order to accomplish infinite looping. The problem is that it's
not actually doing that at all. I tried adding a listener for the "CYCLE" event, but that doesn't get triggered either.

Here's the relevant portion of the code:

--------------------------------------

import com.hydrotik.go.HydroSequence;
import org.goasap.managers.Repeater;

__sequence = new HydroSequence();
__sequence.repeater.cycles = Repeater.INFINITE;

__sequence.addItem( { func:firstFunction, args:[whatever] } );
__sequence.addItem( { func:secondFunction } );
__sequence.addItem( { target:__fader, start_alpha:1, alpha:0, duration:__duration_fade } );
__sequence.addItem( { delay:Number(properties. at timeout) || __duration_timeout, func:trace, args:['timeout triggered']} );

__sequence.start();

--------------------------------------

If I execute the above and look at the output, "timeout triggered" will show only once, which is obviously not what I need.

I have even tried adding another step to the sequence that basically calls __sequence.start(), like so:

__sequence.addItem( { taget:__sequence func:start } );

... but that did absolutely nothing.

Am I missing something here? I really can't seem to get it to work correctly.
Thanks for your time guys!
