Hi all,

I have the following code that’s working withing the context of a Flash8 file.

Suffice to say, this old code only works under AS1.0.

Could anyone give any pointers in making this 2.0 friendly?

Cheers

i = 2;  
while (Number(i)\<150) {  
duplicateMovieClip(“isk1”, “isk” add i, i);  
setProperty(“isk” add i, \_rotation, random(360));  
scalefactor = 40+Number(random(60));  
setProperty(“isk” add i, \_xscale, scalefactor);  
setProperty(“isk” add i, \_yscale, scalefactor);  
i = Number(i)+1;  
}
