Hey, guys, I'm new to flash, and I'm learning up on meh actionscript, and I've seen lots of the "Advanced" tutorials, but they still don't explain how people like Afro Ninja pull off stuff like Newgrounds Sim.

Bottom Line: How do yall learn yer advanced ActionScripts.

Books, i once tried too... U can only learn so much from the internet it seems you either need a guide (e.g a person who knows actionscript) or a really good book like flash bible

You can't sum up advanced actionscripts in one go.

Anyway, stuff like Newgrounds Sim use "variables".

A Tut By Rantzien on Variables. Check it out.

Nah, I personally never read a book about AS, yet I think I'm a fairly advanced programmer. The best way to learn is practice, practice and practice. And reading some of the better blogs/sites/tutorials (stimunation, gskinner, andre michelle, tonypa, strille, ...) for some interesting tips.

What the hell, EVERYTHING uses variables. No programming without them.

What you need to look into is classes. It really amazes me how many people here seem to work without them. Get with the times, or you'll be completely lost when Flash9 hits the stores :)
