[FONT=&quot]Hi!  
I have tried to create a simple Hangman game, it works great,[/FONT]:pleased:[FONT=&quot] but I have two problems. Number one, the course I´m taking requires that there should be an if else statement in the actionscript programming (in an appropriate manner in connection with the user interaction) and I realy don’t know how to fix that. I´m tearing my hair. [/FONT]:crying: [FONT=&quot]Number 2 Preferably I would like the program, alternating between several different words. How do I do? Some kind of array? [/FONT]😊 [FONT=&quot]Please can someone help a woman in need? [/FONT]:hang:[FONT=&quot] Maybe I better say that I am a beginner at actionscript to. This is the code as it looks today.[/FONT]
