Loading bar problems

[neznein9]

The "stage" property isn't set until after the constructor finishes running for your game - so if you have anything in the constructor that points to stage (like stage.stageWidth) you need to move that outside to a function that's called after the constructor finishes. Here's the setup I use to get around the problem. Also for a really good rundown on preloading, you should check out Lee's tutorial over at gotoAndLearn.com.

public function Constructor(){
    super();
    //  stage doesn't exist here yet
    addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, function(e:Event):void{
        e.target.removeEventListener(e.type, arguments.callee);                    
        init();
    });        
        }

private function init():void{
    //  stage exists here
}
