AptActionPushString 0xA1 Pushes the given string to the stack.
See aligned structure AptAction_PushString.
AptActionPushStringDictByte 0xA2 Gets the constant with the given ID (see the Apt constant chunk) and pushes its value onto the stack..
This action has a 1-byte (unsigned integer) constant ID field.
AptActionPushStringDictWord 0xA3 Same as AptActionPushStringDictByte.
This action has a 2-byte (unsigned integer) constant ID field.
AptActionPushStringGetVar 0xA4 Gets the property with the given name from the current scope object, and pushes it onto the stack as an object. There are some special variable names:
  • _root—This represents the current scope object's root object (character).
  • MovieClip—Effectively the same as _root since all Apt files have a Movie as its root.
  • _parent—This represents the current scope object's parent object (character).
  • extern—This represents a special object that is responsible for extern variables/functions.

See aligned structure AptAction_PushString.

AptActionPushStringGetMember 0xA5
  • Pops an object off the stack.
  • Gets the property with the name given from this object.
    • There are some special member names: _root, MovieClip and _parent. See EA_GetStringVariable.
  • Pushes the property value onto the stack.

See aligned structure AptAction_PushString.

AptActionPushStringSetVar 0xA6

  • Pops an object off the stack.
  • Sets the popped object's property with the given name to the popped value.

See aligned structure AptAction_PushString.

  • Gets the string constant with the given ID (see the Apt constant chunk). This represents the function name.
  • Gets the function with the name given from the current scope object.
  • Calls the function (no arguments). Some special functions:
    • stop—Sets the scope object's play state to stopped
    • setInterval—TODO
