Hey there! I have just started using flash MX quite a lot and Iam working on a 2d
platform game. I have been using a tutorial on this website so far, however I have also added my own things here and there to the scripting to help my game function the way I want… by doing this I my game’s scripting is all over the place and Iam finding it difficult make certain things work… :S I was just wondering if somebody who is farmiliar with actionscripting in flash MX could possibly take the time to help me with my game, so I can make it functional this would be greatly appreciated thankyou
sounds like your having some fun problems. if you can put up a code or a fla it might help so we can get an idea pof where your bugs are. o and one more thing alot of issues can come from having the code on the object if you read up a bit you can get it all on the timeline and will be around 100 times easier to debug. believe me ive been there and learned my lesson. keep your code in one spot.

I have just started using flash MX quite a lot and Iam working on a 2d
this would be greatly appreciated thankyou
