I think I need to optimise

programming flash
1

I have a flash movie, and I decided to learn how to use the tween classes in Flash 8. I think, however, that somewhere along the line I got carried away… and my script seems to run very slowly, even on 50 frames per second.

http://hguk.net/~jonbid/scripted.html

I have not yet been able to figure out a way of making it run faster.

I have used functions and called them using if statements on buttons.

Anyway here is the bulk of the script, which I think is the problem, I have also attached the fla.

    mov_port._visible = true;

It is rediculously long… :worried:

Any ideas on how to get rid of this slow jerky animation? or just reducing this script?

Any help is huuuugely appreciated
