_root

[Regone]

My flash is a cocklicking peice of... well.... why wont this work: i have a dynamic text, with number 0 and var "redb". then i have a movieclip, with a frame with this code: _root.redb +=10

But when i start the movie, it just says 10 then 1010 then 101010... i want it to say 10-20-30...

when i have the dynamic at 10 and the code in the movieclip at _root.redb -= 1 , it says NaN.. WTF help me plz!

I think its reading your redb variable as a string, thats why it concatenates the 10 on every time.

where you define it , use

var redb:Number = 0;

tell me if it still doesnt work.

try adding redb = 0 on the main timeline.

it still doesn't work. the number is at 0. the code is now _root.main += 1 (i changed var)
but it still says 0 then 01 then 011 and so on...

change +=1 to ++;

i did now, but then it says NaN :S

_root.redb = _root.redb + 10;

[Lopas1]

on first frame add:
_root.main = 0;
_root.main += 1;

On second frame add:
_root.main += 1;

on third frame add:
gotoAndPlay(2);

Then it will count as hell!

And can you please remove Lopas1 from you're sig... someone might think you're in love!!LOL

maybe YOU (NOT ME) are...

BAAAH!!!

_root.main = Number(_root.main)+1;

Have your variable and then -(-10);

10 is just an example, but by doing -(-Number), it will add the number.
