Flash Tutorial 4 How to end a game by Score or Time Limit.

[Flashthingy]

I re-made this tutorial as well as Tutorials 1, 1a & 3. They are called Tutorials 1, 1a, 3 & 4 ReDo’s. The code and layout is different. These Tutorials will work on both Flash Pro 8 as well as CS5.5 (use the Flash 8 Player and Action Script 2 settings as shown in the video).

I do not know how to program CS5. The code you are talking about is in the TIME movie clip. I believe it actually says "this._parent.gotoAndPlay(5);" not frame 1. If this is correct try removing the word "this" and the period ".". Here is the new action script "_parent.gotoAndPlay(5);". This will work on Action Script 2, no idea about CS5. If it does not work you will have to learn how the return to scene 1 from a movie clip, it is a must if you plan to go any further. Good Luck

hi, great tutorial. I am having problems because I am using Flash CS5.5 and it is telling me that this._parent.gotoAndPlay(1); function is not available and to use Display Object but I dont understand how to do it can you please explain it thanks .

Make 3 movie clips; player_mc, flag_mc and GameOver_mc (make sure frames 1 and 2 of GameOver movie clip have the action script "stop();". Put the rest of Game Over images what ever on frame 2. Write this action script on scene 1.

if (flag_mc.hitTest(player_mc)) { GameOver_mc.gotoAndPlay(2); }
