duplicateMovieCli p

[InnerChild548]

This is the present code:
var count:Number = 0;
var i:Number = 0;
function onEnterFrame() {
count++;
if (count == 120) {
i++;
duplicateMovieClip(_root.orig, "MC"+i, 1000+i);
_root["MC"+i]._x = random(550);
_root["MC"+i]._y = random(400);
}
count = 0;
}

I have a movieclip on the stage with the instance name of "orig".

That's all the code in the fla so this should be simple.

The count variable is basically a timer, since the swf runs at 30fps. So every 3 seconds, I duplicate movieclip should be made and placed randomly. But it's not working.

Any help? Please.

You're resetting count to 0 every frame. Move the count = 0 line to inside the if(count == 120) block.
Also, make it so that it's count>=120. Flash might one day decide to add 0.99999999 instead of 1, and then your exact check fails...

Oh, silly me. I'm so embarrassed. This won't happen again, sorry.

Oh, thanks for the tip (And help)!
