My brain just melted and drained out of my ears.

This is what I've been trying before, why doesn't it work?

what do you want it to do?

my code doesn't have anything to do with the aiming or anything, it just makes it so that you can't shoot a target for 100/[game framerate] seconds after firing


also, it looks like you're trying to apply button script to a movieclip, which won't work. also, if you're trying to make your cursor in to a button, you won't be able to shoot anything that's covered by the cursor. you can only click one button at a time and you'll be making sure that that button is your cursor every time.

what's the instance name of that there "symbol 8"?

I'm just trying to make the aimer jump when you shoot. It's such a simple idea, but so challenging.

have you got msn?

i'll have a look at your whole flash file if you like

I would say come up with a way where when you click, the cursor goes into an animation where it does the kickback as well, but while it's doind the kickback, it doesn't have the clickable feature to it.

Also work on your hit test, I could barely click on the stick figures :/ I would get about one or two in an entire run.

var clickListener:Object = new Object();

clickListener.onMouseDown = function () {

    _root.symbol8.play();

};

Mouse.addListener(clickListener);

man

Criticize on what you wish and thanks for the help.

I was thinking... how could you fix this... it came to me.

give the aim/scope thing an instance name and then on the frame make a link to it. like this

onMouseDown = function () {

	_root.aim.play();

};

onMouseDown = function () {



making it recognise that a click is a function



_root.aim.play();



making a link to your modified cursor, and putting play after it will make it play (the modified corsor has an instance name of aim)



};



closing the action

anyways... AsSeenOnTv, I gave you a download link to make it more clear

EDIT: just looked at scarecrows last code and its pretty much the same, just mines simplified and explained =)

New post cos I need help... when my question is answered ill take it away.

arch-angle or scarecrow, PLEASE HELP

I made an enemy and he walks across the screen because I put in a tween and made him into a movie clip that has him walking inside of it... when you click him he falls over but he keeps moving because of the tween... how can I stop the tween when he is clicked?

I have the same question. It would be better for me to figure this out for myself, but I need to know too.

Update!
Making a nice game, can't get the buttons to even function, you can pick up the knife, the end.

Wow, when he picks up the knife that looks really good but is there a reason you make your games wobbly?

Pazzaz .

its his style ^_^

Everyone know's wobbly's the new sexy.

i made some changes, and i commented everything i made adjustments to

works the way you wanted it to now, plus the added functionality of a cooldown time between shots is available

still somewhat inefficient because you used buttons, but it works.

[EDIT]

made code much more efficient. you can also adjust the number of buttons in the code without having to go through changing numbers for lines and lines of it - all you have to do is change "numberofbuttons"

Sorry, Scarecrow. I found a better way to do it before you posted
