Hello everyone,

I am making this game, and I am missing something that I cannot figure out. I want to make a preloader that loads random items from different urls, like:

[url.com/1.swf](http://url.com/1.swf)  
[url.com/2.swf](http://url.com/2.swf)  
[url.com/3.swf](http://url.com/3.swf)

And after it loads it shows up in an empty movieclip. But even tough i have the right idea, i cannot figure out how to script this…☹

Thanks in advance,  
Nico
