Variable prob. (Example fla inside)

[Johnnsen]

Alright I figured out why my stuff doesn't work.

I have a plane movieclip which chooses a plane sprite randomly. When you drop a bomb the bomb should choose the sprite fitting the plane that it was dropped by. (Plane 1 drops bomb 1, plane 2 drops bomb 2)

This works if I have one plane already on the stage, and no others. However, if I attach more plane movieclips it drops only bombs with the same sprite. (plane 1 and plane 2 only drop bomb 1)

Here is an example fla/swf:

I commented the code a little, its not much. If you delete the controller movie clip and put the plane on the stage then it will work. Use it like it is and it doesn't.

This is driving me nuts, but I am probably only missing one little thing that makes it not work when attaching movieclips.

Dropbox seems to have messed up (or me) but the download link doesn't work. Here is the correct one:

Also: By "attach more planes" I meant attaching by code, as in attachMovieClip

From what i can tell, you're not using the same variable for the plane and bomb type.

Make a public variable in the main class like

public var type = Math.floor(math.random()*2+1)

Or you need to add one to the end of it

public var bomb_type = Math.floor(math.random()*2+1+1)

Try either.
