Hi all

I need to know a little bit about scenes.

I’ve got a preloader scene and my game scene, but once the preloader moves to the game, the game keeps on flashing very quickly back to the loading scene, how can I stop this?

Check your ActionScript.

Once you get into your game scene, you’ll need to have a stop(); action on the last frame, to make sure it doesn’t skip back around. 🙂

Hi again

Thanks for the replay but, My movie is a looping movie and if I place a stop action at the end the last frame my movie runs once and then stops.

Please assit.

Thanks!

In that case, you might have to tell the loop where to loop from, if you get me. At the moment it seems it’s looping through the entire movie, but you just want to to loop through the one scene. You might have to make sure that this is exactly what your code is telling it to do.

The little targetting crosshair in the Actions panel can come in handy there. Use that to tell the script exactly where you want to repeat from.

just add a new keyframe in the last frame of the game scene  
and place a gotoAndPlay(1) action in it

like this …
