help deadline approaching

hi,

I'm making an assignment in flash for school but i have some problems that I can't fix. You can watch my movie at http://users.pandora.be/trebke

1:
when you look at my movie, you 'll see a "Bring Chaos" button. And when you click it something happens. But I want this to happen automatically after 22 seconds without the button. How can I make this happen?

2:
The zoom part gifs a shock effect. How can I prevent this? I want the screen to zoom out gradually.I think that the actual framerate slows down, is that possible?

3:
Is it possible to make the length of the movie longer without changing the framerate. The framerate is 20 is this too fast?

Thanks for your help and maybe for my good grades ;-)

OK, I will take a shot at it. First let me try to understand the movie first. I take it the cars are tweens, and you just have them moving and then a gotoandPlay(1); at the end. Then for the button on(release) {gotoandPlay(whatever) } ??? I hope that's right. A simple way to achive the 22 second effect would to just multiply 22*framerate(20) to get 440 frames. Just start the chaos at frame 440. However, that would be kinda big, unless you are already using more than that. Otherwise, I would try to make an invisible movie clip that on fram 440 just say gotoandPlay the main movies frame 440. That's all my ideas for that.
As for the zooming. You have a pretty big movie. When everything is tweening like that, you will probably get the choppy looking effects that you have. I am not sure if there if much you can do about that. Optimizing stuff I guess. Maybe someone else will have a good idea about that.
finally, I am not aware of any other way to make your movie longer other than manually making all of tweens and stuff longer.....
Hope some of this helps.
