Imagine my shock…I’m setting up a pretty complex, multi-lesson game and using it also as an opportunity to make the switch from AS2 to AS3. It’s been a bumpy road but I’m getting it but think I’ve hit a roadblock.

Is there an equivalent to the “loadMovieNum()” parameter from AS2? I have been merrily building all the individual games assuming I’d just swap them in and out of the same level so they purge each other as we go.

Is there a way to do this in AS3? I’m on the verge of reverting back to AS2. I’ve only got a month left ; )
