    alpha 0-100 on multiple mc's

    ...hopefully this won't be as silly a question as my last post!

    I have an fla file that contains 32 mc's all titled tile followed by it's number - so tile1 tile2 etc...

    How can I tell 'all' 32 of the tile clips to start off with a alpha of 0 but then when the user clicks a button all 32 become visible?

    How do I do that? other than the painful method of telltarget for each of them?

    Hi wwfc,

    U can do that with a "for" action.. just like this.

    Code:
    function start(){
      for (i=0;i<=32;i++){
          eval("tile"+i)._alpha=0;
      }
    }
    
    my_button.onPress=function(){
     for (i=0;i<=32;i++){
         eval("tile"+i)._alpha=100;
     }
    }
    I dont have the flash here so i cant test the code, but i think its allright... The function start sets all the MCs to inicial 0 alpha, and the second, triggered by the click of the button, sets it to 100 alpha; Tell me if that works for you ( i know eval its not used anymore, but what can i do, used it for a long time, old habits )

    Edited* = I forgot to say, u need a button in the stage named my_button to make it work ( u can change it of course)

    Thats a ripped fla you have there. Most of the code is knackered.
    Code:
    function slideACTION(mc, s, sec)
    {
        var _loc1 = mx.transitions.easing.Elastic.easeOut;
        var _loc3 = new mx.transitions.Tween(mc, "_y", _loc1, mc._y, s, sec, true);
    }
    _loc is used in decompilers
    Code:
    function checkForXtraBall(theBallName)
    {
    	var xtraBallNum = xtraBallList.length;
    	i = 0;
    	for (;;) 
    	{
    		if (i >= xtraBallNum) 
    		{
    			return;
    		}
    
    		if (theBallName == xtraBallList[i]) 
    		{
    			return 1;
    		}
    
    		++i;
    	}
    
    }
    note* then for() and the ++i these are also trates of an swf that has been ripped to fla

    ...aah that would explain a fair bit then!!!!

    It is something that I found, not sure if it was on here or one of the others - is there a way of putting it into a proper format?

    ...or does anyone know of a good tut/source for creating a ball pop type game?

    I presumed it would be in there somewhere since the others are there.
    Try google for "flash games source" see if that comes up with anything.
