levels targetPath

[iaustin]

This code is on the root of a movie, it workks fine. However, when i load it into level 100(from another movie) , the snap-to code no longer works.

I've worked with levels a lot, but this really stumps me.

I've tried many many variations to taget the correct path, _levels. _root, this._name, targetPath,

The basic code appear below.

//code on root movie
onEnterFrame = fsnapto;
function fsnapto(){
//trace("pushed @ snapto ==" +choices);
// target1
area_oftarget_x = target1._x;
area_oftarget_y = target1._y;
//target2
area_oftarget_x2 = _root.target2._x;
area_oftarget_y2 = _root.target2._y;
}
// == end snap to==


// code on buttons
on(release){
if(_root.a3._droptarget == "/target1"){
trace("dropped 3================" +this.targetPath);
_root.fchoice("a3");
_root.a3._x= area_oftarget_x;
_root.a3._y= area_oftarget_y;
}
}

hi iaustin!, i was lookin for something like this...working with levels, do you have any fla that you could share to see how this is possible?

i did this:
_level1.gotoAndStop(3);
but i canot actually have it working

[iaustin]

You wold have first loaded a movie into level1...
loadMovie("mymovie.swf", "_level1");
Then your command should work.

i used loadMovieNum();

do you think it is the problem?
