There are a lot of things he did much better, but as with others I didn't really enjoy the gameplay as much as the first. Too much wandering around just for the sake of running up walls, without the...

I believe the Flash 9 alpha was basically Flash 8 moddified to publish AS3. The actual Flash CS3 product is a new product that is substantially different. In some ways good, others bad.

As far as...

Yes. You can choose to hide and show it whenever you want.

You dont have to hide the cursor from the beginning. Leave it as the system cursor until the event occurs, then hide it and play the animation.

No problem :)

No its not necessarily new. You could declare them public and private in AS2. However, in AS2 if you didnt declare it public, it would default to public. In AS3 it must be declared...

For one, declare your class and your function as public. It cant be accessed publicly without a public declaration.

Well you could just import it as a bitmap in the first place if its causing that much trouble. Or you can copy dynamically to a new bitmap object and then display that.

Are you trying to turn it...

Its not possible, its global.

Kongregate is fairly new, its only been around since sept-oct of last year (still in beta right now). I highly recommend joining. A lot of developers like to chat it up there.

Last I checked, it is possible to change the properties of a class, at least certain properties. It would be insanely stupid to not to be able to. As I said, you shouldn't be defining a function...

As you are figuring out, you can use function pointers. You just should not declare the entire function as you did in your first example. That was bad practice anyways and Flash CS3 throws an error...

Thats a pretty rude response. I can see that you seem to have an attitude problem, despite the fact that you are asking for help. You have been unclear about what exactly it is you want to duplicate,...

But you have objects in swf you are loading right? Or are you interested in duplicating whats on the loaded swfs main timeline?

Adobe is 'deaf' because duplicateMovieClip is an archaic command this is no longer really used. AS3 works much differently than previous versions.

And my question is simple, are you loading image...

What exactly do you want to duplicate? An image file, or a library object from a loaded swf?

1 ) You need to declare your class, its constructor and its properties as public if you are going to use them in that manner
2 ) I dont know why you are using "self" in ship1.self.rotation. Remove...

Awesome.

No problem ;)

MovieClip.totalFrames

Not really. You can apply actions to a button (of course) but you have to use event listeners. Listeners are available and in use in AS2 already, its just in AS3 it became the standard.

Several things are wrong.

1 ) You defined clone() outside your class. Put it inside.
2 ) You need to import flash.net.URLVariables
3 ) You cant declare required variables after optional...

Flash CS? There is no Flash CS. There is Flash CS3 (aka Flash 9) and yes, the final version is available. Whether or not the version you have is the final, thats not possible for me to tell with the...

Yes, TextField.getTextFormat is still available and can be used. However, if the selection contains mixed properties; like part of it is bold and part isnt; then it will return that property as null....

Yes. Just do as I showed earlier. It seems the TextFormat object automatically creates html tags for you, so all you have to do is get TextField.htmlText.

Add trace ( tf.htmlText ) to my above...

Is it an AS2 or AS3 component? If its AS2, it will only show up if your publish settings for the current file are AS2.

I dont use Flex but I use .swc files with Flash all the time. Did you try adding the swc to your components folder so they show up in the components panel? (make sure to restart Flash)
