This repository contains the original Adobe Animate .fla, exported HTML Canvas .js, and any image files (background, foreground, cached) for each animated scene of the plea bargain simulation. A project overview and detailed documentation are available at pleajustice.org.
- Adobe exports animated assets to CreateJS Canvas. The generated
.jsfiles include an internal "composition ID" which necesitates a lookup table to match asset name to ID. The publishing script adds a lookup table for this atwindow.FILE_TO_ID. These internal IDs must be unique, though it is not always the case that Animate gives assets unique IDs. For example, if.flais copied to make a similar asset, the resulting.jsfiles will have the same internal IDs and will not be able to be loaded by the simulation. To solve this, manually change any identical IDs.

Bitmap caching is supported by the simulation code, but separate image files are not by the console. Assets that require a separate
images/directory are problematic to upload to the console and also to load when the simulation is run or when thumbnails are generated. Because of this you may still use bitmap cache on symbols, but you should disable 'Export Images' in the publishing settings. -
The publishing script is run automatically by the console when a file is uploaded. If you need to do fine tuned customizations to the
.jsfile, you may manually publish using the script in this repository. -
The simulation is no longer backwards compatible with Adobe Animate 20.0.3 or below. All assets must be exported with Animate >=20.0.4.
