Patience, Grashopper, patience... It's dinner time here.

As for the question, that is a very, very broad statement. The goal is amiable, but I would suggest starting out by learning the software a bit, learning a bit about animation, then working on the scripting.

Start with the graphics. Find or draw a frog, a tongue and a fly, then see if you can get them to move the way you want. Once you have that, then start looking to control the objects and finally, to keep score.

i have the animations down pact. but i just dont know how to make something show without stoping the frame before....

i have fly's flying around and when i click to make the frogs tounge show the flys stop..

im in a VB class now and i was wondering is scripting like vb examples:

image1.visible = true
or
if image1.visible = true then
image2.move
end if

-----------------------------------

any thing like that??

For now, stick with the visual animation. Learn how to use sprites to keep things in motion. You can start by reading Sprites 101 and Tell Target Does What??

You can have a fly buzzing around in a sprite, them move the sprite using Tell Target Transform actions or scripts. Once that's in place, you can let loose with the math.

The Math & Physics Forum here at FlashKit is an excellent resource.

Good luck!
