how to create a symbol in code

how do I create a symbol in code from the library and name it in code

I don't think you can create new "library symbols" dynamically using ActionScript.

What you can do is create copies of "symbols" that are already in the library.

that's what I meant

In AS3 if you've created a symbol and given it a class name "TestSymbol".

You can create a copy of the symbol like so...

Code:

---

var test:TestSymbol = new TestSymbol();
addChild(test);

---

In AS2, you would use the attachMovie() method.

ok how can you make everything from the same class behave the same way

ok I put the code in

but the bullet is not appearing
how do I define its appearing spot

also how do I make its angle, and direction the same as "shooter"

and make it go that way
current code:

PHP Code:

---

setInterval(shoot,10);

function shoot(){
    shooter.direction=Math.atan2((shooter.y-mouseY),(shooter.x-mouseX));
    shooter.rotation=(shooter.direction*180/Math.PI-90);
    shooter.speed=20
    var test:bullet = new bullet();
    addChild(test);
}

Are you using AS2 or AS3?

as3

have you setup a linkage with the export to Actionscript checked, and the correct class name?

what now?
