Change Framerate On A Movieclip As3

[stickman8190]

I would like to know how to change the frameRate on a MovieClip in ActionScript 3

So any idea?

[mark212]

the only way i can think of is to have a function like this

public var frameRate:Number = 12;

private function changeFrame()
{
    gotoAndStop(currentFrame+1);
    setTimeout(changeFrame, 1000/frameRate);
}

Am I suppose to type this code inside a MovieClip?

the code was incomplete, just a way to guide a programmer to a solution. if your not into programming then why do you want to dynamically change the framerate using as3?
