Here is my issue. I am trying to create a scrolling menu with clickable objects on it. I can get the menu to move with on(release) and on(rolOver) [ on(rollOver) is the function I want to use, as I want the menu to scroll as long as the use hovers their cursor over a button ]. It works by having the menu and buttons tweened from frame 1 to 40, so if the button is pressed or rolled over it adds one to the scroll variable, and then goes to the next frame like this:
on(rollOver){
var scroller = scroller +1;
gotoAndStop(scroller);
}
What I want to accomplish a few things
- keep scrolling while the use keeps their mouse over the button
- stop when they remove it
- repeat at a specific rate
Ive been doing research and trying diffrent things, I think setInterval is what I want to use, but I have no clue at all how to implement it. Ive been working at this for weeks now and its getting a bit frustrating so some more help would be really appreciated. Ive seen a few tutorials online that accomplish similar but I have a bit of a hard time understanding and following all of the examples as most assume you have a greater knowledge of AS2.0 so I am a bit lost atm.
