I'm making a .swf with 4 scenes in it. In the .swf your building a monster. In each scene you pick a part for your monster, which head you want, next scene which body, etc.
The problem is for example: You find the head you want out of 12 different choices then your going to go on to the next scene which is the body, how do you tell flash to keep the one body part out of that scene on to the next scene.
There is only one way I can think of...and that is you must duplicate the movie clip and then position it on the screen. Movies you have on the stage are only for that scene but when you duplicate the movie clip they stay there throughout the entire movie...at least until you remove them.
Good luck.
I think I understand what your saying, but it could be different everytime they play the game. Is it something I would set up in Get Property and have all my parts set as a variable or something?
I'm not exactly sure what your saying there...
Alright well here is an idea. Have a little selection menu for, lets say, the heads of the monster. When a user clicks it you can duplicate that movie and place it in the middle of the screen...then allow the user to drag that one where ever they want...and the heads in the selection menu should not be draggable but only clickable.
If that wasnt clear enough I could make a little sample movie if you want...good luck.
I actually have recently done this sort of application. I can send you my FLA files if you would like to take a look at how it was done in mine. I actually used 3 separate movies... 1 parent movie, 2 child movies (1 nav, 1 manequin).
If interested, let me know your email an I'll send them.
