Hey everyone,
So, I create a new movieclip with a stop action on frame 1, drop it on the stage and give it an instance name. On frame 1 of the main timeline, i tell this new movieclip to play. But it doesn’t. It just sits there and laughs at me.
So I try making it play by telling the root clip to play it onLoadInit. Nothing.
But if I move everything to frame 2, then it all works.
So I then created a function to do everything for me, and get the same problem (whether on frame 1 or frame 2). Interestingly, if I tell the clip to play(), it doesn’t leave frame 1, but if I tell it gotoAndPlay(2), it goes to frame 2 and just sits there… These are all very basic concepts, but they’ve got me stumped, and they’re driving me berserk. Berserk!
Am I overlooking something?
Thanks in advance,
Steve
