1.) its ACTION script
2.) what do you want the button to do?
3.) have you looked at the built in tutorials in flash on buttons?

Use >= for any score greater than or equal to 500 and == for exactly 500.

just incase you didnt know(cos i didnt know when in started)
where he has stated to use == instead of = .. the reason is:
= is an assignment operator it asigns a value to something
== is a comparison operator it checks to see if it is equel

im not sure if it has it in AS but some languages also have
=== must be exactly the same so with 1== "1" its the same where as 1 === "1" it isnt the same because ones an integer and ones a string

:)

could you not also do

setInterval(timer(){
do stuff
},1000);

or whatever the syntax is

also if you dont get that working on the last frame put on

stopAllSounds();

this will stop all sounds on the last frame and them when it goes back to the first it will start it again so you dont get the song over itself if it hasnt finished

but stream is the way to go

hey man have a geezer at this

Click on me i'm cool

if you hold in the left and up button two will highlight but for some odd reason the 2nd one does not do that?

Nice start for a game, but maybe a litle bit faster, but it looks good and your AC skills are good too, im not too inteligent to make game like yours.

I know its nothnig but please refer to it as AS skills not AC
i keep thinking Air Conditioning skils

well if you interested i have a game i was working on and also have a few other ideas but i really dont like animating so if your interested in making games :)

But seriously, if you don't like all the hard work of sprite animating, just hand draw your stuff.

i tried it but it kept crashing my computer im just waiting for the new 2.6 release

try removing the clip and recreating it again on the second frame

wierd

is there actionscript on the second frame?
or is it only on the first frame in your fla?

he means ACtionscript

maybe something like this

attachMovie("wall","topwall"+i,_root.getNextHighestDepth(), {_x:i*60, _y:_root.centre.getBounds(_root).yMin});
topWall = _root["topwall"+i]
}

hmm.. on the frame on the maintimeline place this

yourMovieClipInstanceNameHere.onRollOver = function(){
 this.gotoAndPlay(2);
}

it could be Rollover or RollOver i cant remember

and to be clear put your movieclipinstance name where it says to

Im not looking for work in art, I am just saying I'm pretty good in art and if you have no other people that want to do it, I will.

for starters mate that was not ME who wrote that.. and that was also directed at me
i had a look at your profile and it seems you only do stick or madness?
if you got something else sure send it through

var touchingGround:Boolean = false;

if(touchingground) {
jumped = false;
}
} else {
if(Key.isDown(Key.UP)) {
jumped = true;
falling = jumpHeight;
this.gotoAndStop(3);
}
}

look at your var its declared as touchingGround
your testing touchingground

notice no capital G Actionscript is Case sensetive man

so seing as touchingground doesnt exist it can never be true

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (this.hitTest(_root.bullet)) {
_root.gotoAndStop(2)
}
}

so im just wondering if there is an artist / animator out there that would be interesting in teaming up to make games, maybe we could get togeather get a good game idea work on it and create it

i've got a few ideas but i do need someone to do art for them :)

if your interested let me know.. im heading to bed now as its 1am here and i have work at 7am

but seeing as i am sooooo busy at work i will be on NG's all day :)

just a thought

I'm Muja, and I'm looking for a LOT of Monkey Island Sprites (for the first and second game only), because I came up with the idea of a point-and-click game of Monkey Island with Flash. I feel ready to try it out (if the results will be ugly, I'll just stop it :-P).

So, anyone knows where I can find these sprites? Pretty please? I'll give a three-headed monkey as a gift to whoever does!

how long have you been doing actionscript?
cos im already making a point and click game and if you dont know what your doing then i guarantee you will quit

lol how good of an artist are oyu?

all sent :)

stop the move speed

Not at problem at all there matey!

thanks a bunch.

No Problem, Anytime :)

Or in AS 2 put this on the button

on(press) {_root.ground_mc.play();}

I think those should work, but I might be missing somthing.

hmm i was told that putting code on the MC's is bad practice ??? no?

What I want is when you press the button It will play the ground_mc clip. all this needs to be in the one frame

yea...Noob...I know. I'm more on the animating side of flash. This is my VERY first game. thanks ;)

lets see if i can get this right :)

on the frame of the main timeline put..

buttonName.onRelease = function(){
_root.ground_mc.gotoAndPlay(2);
}
