object adds velocity instead of maintaining in opposite direct

I have a group of objects i want to rotate , there is a button which should onclick change from left to right and a stop button which should stop the current group position at its current location , however every time i click rotate , it changes direction but increases in speed even though it is bound to a slider, ive tried calling the animation frame last and cancelling it on each call but nothing works
var speedslider = document.getElementById("speedinput");
var direction = true;
var stopped = true;
speedslider.addEventListener("change",DirectionBTN.onclick);
zoomOutButton.addEventListener("change", zoomOutFunction);
speedslider.addEventListener("change",StopStartBTN.onclick);
//rotation of group
const rotateGroup = function()
{
if(stopped == true){
group.rotation.y =!group.rotation.y
}
if(direction == true){
group.rotation.y += speedslider.value/1000;
requestAnimationFrame(rotateGroup)
}
if(direction == false){
group.rotation.y -= speedslider.value/1000;
requestAnimationFrame(rotateGroup)
}
};
//start rotation left
StopStartBTN.onclick = function() {
stopped = !stopped
rotateGroup()
};
DirectionBTN.onclick = function() {
direction = !direction;
rotateGroup();
};

Creating a simple "smooth scroll" (with javascript vanilla)

I have been trying to make a simple "smoothscroll" function using location.href that triggers on the mousewheel. The main problem is that the EventListener(wheel..) gets a bunch of inputs over the span of ca. 0,9 seconds which keeps triggering the function. "I only want the function to run once".
In the code below I have tried to remove the eventlistener as soon as the function runs, which actually kinda work, the problem is that I want it to be added again, hence the timed function at the bottom. This also kinda work but I dont want to wait a full second to be able to scroll and if I set it to anything lover the function will run multiple times.
I've also tried doing it with conditions "the commented out true or false variables" which works perfectly aslong as you are only scrolling up and down but you cant scroll twice or down twice.
window.addEventListener('wheel', scrolltest, true);
function scrolltest(event) {
window.removeEventListener('wheel', scrolltest, true);
i = event.deltaY;
console.log(i);
if (webstate == 0) {
if (i < 0 && !upexecuted) {
// upexecuted = true;
location.href = "#forside";
// downexecuted = false;
} else if (i > 0 && !downexecuted) {
// downexecuted = true;
location.href = "#underside";
// upexecuted = false;
}
}
setTimeout(function(){ window.addEventListener('wheel', scrolltest, true); }, 1000);
}
I had hoped there was a way to stop the wheel from constantly produce inputs over atleast 0.9 seconds.
"note: don't know if it can help in some way but when the browser is not clicked (the active window) the wheel will registre only one value a nice 100 for down and -100 for up"

What you're trying to do is called "debouncing" or "throttling". (Those aren't exactly the same thing, but you can look up the difference in case it's going to matter to you.) Functions for this are built into libraries like lodash, but if using a library like that is too non-vanilla for what you have in mind, you can always define your own debounce function: https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/debouncing-in-javascript/
You might also want to look into requestanimationframe.

a different approach
okey after fiddeling with this for just about 2 days i got fustrated and started over. no matter what i did the browsers integrated "glide-scroll" was messing up the event trigger. anyway i decided to animate the scrolling myself and honestly it works better than i had imagined: here is my code if anyone want to do this:
var body = document.getElementsByTagName("BODY")[0];
var p1 = document.getElementById('page1');
var p2 = document.getElementById('page2');
var p3 = document.getElementById('page3');
var p4 = document.getElementById('page4');
var p5 = document.getElementById('page5');
var whatpage = 1;
var snap = 50;
var i = 0;
// this part is really just to read what "page" you are on if you update the site. if you add more pages you should remember to add it here too.
window.onload = setcurrentpage;
function setcurrentpage() {
if (window.pageYOffset == p1.offsetTop) {
whatpage = 1;
} else if (window.pageYOffset == p2.offsetTop) {
whatpage = 2;
} else if (window.pageYOffset == p3.offsetTop) {
whatpage = 3;
} else if (window.pageYOffset == p4.offsetTop) {
whatpage = 4;
} else if (window.pageYOffset == p5.offsetTop) {
whatpage = 5;
}
}
// this code is designet to automaticly work with any "id" you have aslong as you give it a variable called p"number" fx p10 as seen above.
function smoothscroll() {
var whatpagenext = whatpage+1;
var whatpageprev = whatpage-1;
var currentpage = window['p'+whatpage];
var nextpage = window['p'+whatpagenext];
var prevpage = window['p'+whatpageprev];
console.log(currentpage);
if (window.pageYOffset > currentpage.offsetTop + snap && window.pageYOffset < nextpage.offsetTop - snap){
body.style.overflowY = "hidden";
i++
window.scrollTo(0, window.pageYOffset+i);
if (window.pageYOffset <= nextpage.offsetTop + snap && window.pageYOffset >= nextpage.offsetTop - snap) {
i=0;
window.scrollTo(0, nextpage.offsetTop);
whatpage += 1;
body.style.overflowY = "initial";
}
} else if (window.pageYOffset < currentpage.offsetTop - snap && window.pageYOffset > prevpage.offsetTop + snap){
body.style.overflowY = "hidden";
i--
window.scrollTo(0, window.pageYOffset+i);
if (window.pageYOffset >= prevpage.offsetTop - snap && window.pageYOffset <= prevpage.offsetTop + snap) {
i=0;
window.scrollTo(0, prevpage.offsetTop);
whatpage -= 1;
body.style.overflowY = "initial";
}
}
}
to remove the scrollbar completely just add this to your stylesheet:
::-webkit-scrollbar {
width: 0px;
background: transparent;
}

OnMouseScroll increment a variable JS

I want to make a JS function.
It will work like this :
If I use my Mouse Wheel to Scroll Down so my variable will decrement. And if I use my Mouse Wheel to Scroll Up my variable will increment
I want to put that in a Condition with a max and min number.
I will send you a screenshot of my website and you will understand
So like you see, I need to make it work without scrollbar. I've only one page in 100vh.
I've make something very bad but you will understand the idea
https://jsfiddle.net/tuzycreo/
i= 1;
if (i>0 && i<5) {
//if(MouseScrollUp)
//i++;
document.querySelector('.number').innerHTML = i;
//else if(MouseScrollDown)
//i--;
// document.querySelector('.number').innerHTML = number;
}
Thanks you guys !

You can try like this,
var scrollCount = 0,
latestScrollTop = 0,
doc = document.documentElement,
top = 0;
// Bind window scroll event
$(window).bind('scroll', function (e) {
top = (window.pageYOffset || doc.scrollTop) - (doc.clientTop || 0);
if (latestScrollTop < top) {
// Scroll down, increment value
scrollCount += 1;
} else {
// Scroll up, decrement value
scrollCount -= 1;
}
// Store latest scroll position for next position calculation
latestScrollTop = top;
});

I make something that is working for me
https://jsfiddle.net/u93c9eth/2/
var scrollCount = 1;
window.addEventListener('mousewheel', function(e){
if(e.wheelDelta<0 && scrollCount<5){
scrollCount++;
}
else if(e.wheelDelta>0 && scrollCount>1){
scrollCount--;
}
document.querySelector('.number').innerHTML = scrollCount;
});

Touch Events not registering for HTML5 Canvas Authoring using Flash CC

I have been having some issues when it comes to authoring HTML 5 Canvas in Flash CC, mostly as a result of the lack of information on writing JavaScript inside Flash.
I have been converting an existing drag and drop .fla into HTML 5 with the hope of making it iOS and Android compatible. It is already functioning with mouse, but I have hit a brick wall on trying to add touch support.
The only way I have been able to even register the touch events is by listening to the entire window, which isn't very useful when I have multiple pieces that I want to move around.
This is what I have so far, all this code is located on the first frame of the main Scene Timeline, and the scene is composed of 5 pieces and 5 targets for those pieces, as well as a pop up task completed box and a reset button.
this.stop();
MainStage = this;//Declare
//*********************
//Actual Drag and Dropping
// Initialize:
var numPieces = 5;//<---------------Place number of pieces HERE---------------
var homePosX = [];
var homePosY = [];
var correctAns = 0;
var isClickableAry = [];
var whoAmI = [];//Declared "Globally" so that I can identify which piece is being grabbed later
for (var i = 0; i < numPieces; i++)
{
var pieceName = "p" + (i + 1);
var piece = this[pieceName];
//This sets the starting position for each piece
homePosX[i+1] = piece.x;//(i+1) is so that Piece names line up with Target names and MC names
homePosY[i+1] = piece.y;
whoAmI[i] = piece;
isClickableAry[i] = 1;//Makes it so each pieces is set as clickable
if( piece ){
piece.name = pieceName;
piece.on("mousedown" || "touchstart", function(evt)
{
evt.preventDefault();
//Debug
console.log(checkPiece(this));
//Rather than adding and removing event listeners, just check to see if piece is clickable
if(isClickableAry[checkPiece(this)] == 1){
this.parent.addChild(this);// Bump to top
this.offset = {x:this.x - evt.stageX, y:this.y - evt.stageY};
//Debug
console.log(piece + "PICKED UP, X " + piece.x + ", Y " + piece.y + " is Clickable? ");
//Set Home Coordinates (Where it was picked up)
homeX = this.x;
homeY = this.y;
}
});
piece.on("touchmove",function(evt)
{
console.log("touch moved! " + touchobj);
evt.preventDefault();
});
piece.on("pressmove", function(evt)
{
if(isClickableAry[checkPiece(this)] == 1){
this.x = evt.stageX + this.offset.x;
this.y = evt.stageY + this.offset.y;
//Mouse Cursor change
document.body.style.cursor='move';
}
});
piece.on("pressup" || "touchend" || "touchcancel", function(evt)
{
var target = this.parent["t"+this.name.substr(1)];
//Reset Cursor
document.body.style.cursor='auto';
if( target && hitTestInRange( target, 60) && isClickableAry[checkPiece(this)] == 1 ){
this.x = target.x;
this.y = target.y;
//If it is correct add one
correctAns++;
//Make that button Unclickable
isClickableAry[checkPiece(this)] = 0;
if(correctAns >= numPieces){
//If they have answered correctly equal to the the number of pieces
MainStage.complete_mc.parent.addChild(MainStage.complete_mc);//Bump to top
MainStage.complete_mc.gotoAndStop(1);
//reset answer counter and make drag pieces and buttons unclickable
correctAns = 0;
//Debug
console.log(correctAns + "CORRECT!";)
}
}else{
//Return to home Coordinates (Where it was on intialization)
if(isClickableAry[checkPiece(this)] == 1){
this.x = homePosX[checkPiece(this)+1];
this.y = homePosY[checkPiece(this)+1];
}
}
});
piece.on("mouseover", function(evt)
{
if(isClickableAry[checkPiece(this)] == 1){
//Makes cursor a pointer finger
document.body.style.cursor='pointer';
}
});
piece.on('mouseout',function(evt)
{
//sets cursor back to normal
document.body.style.cursor='auto';
});
}
}
function hitTestInRange( target, range )
{
if( target.x > stage.mouseX - range &&
target.x < stage.mouseX + range &&
target.y > stage.mouseY - range &&
target.y < stage.mouseY + range )
{
return true;
}
return false;
}
//Check which piece it is
function checkPiece(checkName)
{
for (var i = 0; i < numPieces; i++)
{
if (checkName == whoAmI[i]){
return i;
}
}
}
//Reset Functionality
this.complete_mc.reset_btn.addEventListener("click", resetPos.bind(this));
function resetPos(){
for (var i = 0; i < numPieces; i++)
{
var pieceName = "p" + (i + 1);
var piece = this[pieceName];
correctAns = 0;
//Makes Pieces Grabable again
isClickableAry[i] = 1;
//This returns each piece to their Original Starting Positions
piece.x = homePosX[i+1];
piece.y = homePosY[i+1];
}
}
//Controlling the Pop Up Window, window pops up when user answers everything correctly
this.complete_mc.exitComplete_btn.addEventListener("click", closePopUp.bind(this));
this.complete_mc.exitComplete_btn_alt. addEventListener("click", closePopUp.bind(this));
function closePopUp(){
MainStage.complete_mc.gotoAndStop(0);
}
In my own troubleshooting with other problems that have come up generally the issue has to do with scope of either functions or variables, since when flash exports the files it generates its own .js file and turns all of your movie clips into code and separates the code that you have written by whichever frame you wrote it on.
Any help at all would be appreciated.
EDIT: After a bit more research I think the problem might have something to do with touch events only being able to target separate elements? So it isn't able to grab objects inside the canvas element just the canvas element itself?

Turns out that adding touch support is incredibly easy. All I was missing was one line of code
createjs.Touch.enable(stage);
this makes all the touch events respond as mouse events. and fixed all my issues.

make a character jump inside canvas

this is my jsfiddle : http://jsfiddle.net/2tLCk/4/
as you can see if you hit the up button Mario will jump far to the up and go back down once but if u hit it again he will not jump how can i fix this problem ? when I hit the up button Mario will jump to a specific location let's say y=32 and than go back down (always not just for one time ) ?
var Jump = function () {
if (character.y > limit && !goingDown) {
character.y -= limit;
} else {
goingDown = true;
character.y += limit;
if (character.y >= 184) {
clearInterval(jumping);
goingDown = false;
limit = 0;
character.y = 184;
}
}
}

Set the limit inside this if statement
if (keydown.up) {
limit = 10;
jumping = setInterval(Jump, 150);
}
DEMO
To specify a specific height you can delcare a new variable called limitHeight and switch it with limit in this if statement
if (character.y > limitHeight && !goingDown) {
// ^^^^^^^^^^^
in this new demo i also put clearInterval in the keydown.up statement to fix some bugs
DEMO

You set your limit to 0 when the jump is done. So there is 0 substracted from the y position on the second jump. In your initialization you set limit to 10. If I set limit to 10 after jump it works again.
fiddle
Relevant code:
var Jump = function () {
if (character.y > limit && !goingDown) {
character.y -= limit;
} else {
goingDown = true;
character.y += limit;
if (character.y >= 184) {
clearInterval(jumping);
goingDown = false;
limit = 10;
character.y = 184;
}
}
}
