Multiple instances of MC's in as3

programming flash
1

Hello, I need help with making multiple instances of one MC please :smiley:

  • Made a movieclip, and exported as class within Flash so that I can reach it in as3

  • Made a button. Every time the button is clicked, that one MC is called upon, and pushed to an array.

  • A secondary button is clicked, which uses a FOR loop to calculate how long the array is, and then addChild to every element of the array.

*Problem - Everytime addChild is used, it replaces it. Although I clicked the first button, say 5 times. There should now be 5 elements in the array, which there are. After the secondary button is clicked, it addChild the elements but only shows 1 on the screen because it gets replaced.

How do I get around this? Adding a container? I have done this before too, so it is frustrating I forget how. :doh:
