[NaffaCake]

I can't pick up the coins, what am I doing wrong?

[fanmanavnger16]

Does it still work if the text is a different layer from the character?

[Marcoasdxdlol]

at 3:20 what's the code of action??

[ToxisGrey]

I have a question for you. I'm not very good with computers, but I'm making a sim game and I don't know what I need to do, this is what happens.

I'll rest up which adds 50 Hp and goes to a new day, like day 3 or something. How do I make my flash keep the Hp at whatever it was after that? If I click on a new activity the Hp resets. If you can't help me, do you know another tutorial that could?

[PigeonStealth]

Does it matter how old he is? The fact he's helping game makers is all that matters

[HemVed]

Your not supposed to copy "var code"

[shaddy360]

mine says dat but it still works

[HelpGuyAndVid]

you say mansdaskdh, not money.

[TYCchannel]

instead of adding up to 20 it goes 1010!!!! halp

[shoopdawoop25]

ahblahshanagahflahbahradarada

thats why

[TimeFreeze1]

it won't work... could it be because I am using macromedia flash 5? I don't know... I put in everything that you said to put, but the dude just goes over the dots. I haven't put the money thing at the top, so I don't know what the value is...

[sevenmeyou]

me too im using macromedia flash 8 pro and we got the same problem!

the black dot just goes over the money and nothing happens!.

[TimeFreeze1]

I think instead of

unloadMovieClip

it should be

removeMovieClip

Not sure, but that might work.

[sevenmeyou]

it wont work!>

i figured it out!

just put out the clip thing

and add "unloadMovie"

and it will work

[stuuk1958]

how can you make a wall that when the carachter picks it up he will go to a new frame. Im trying to make a maze game and the walls could be somthing you pick up but when you do you would go to a new frame

:D

[JayMutta]

it's easier to paste the code and then copy&paste the money

[stuuk1958]

how do you make a item that the carachter can buy when he picks up?

do you now a code for that?

:D

[kamiro361]

[Marwaniok]

oops never mind thx dude u rock i am totally gonna subscribe

[THECanadian05]

did you make the new text dynamic(did you even make a new text?)

[Deskarano]

I want to make a store in my game, but I need a code to subtract the money. Can anyone help?

[VandziorX]

YEAH! ;> - I have already.

[VandziorX]

come into money, and nothing is without motion, and money to me does not add...

[FlashUser95]

i had same problem, but just high-ligth the money bar, press properties,

find " Var: " then type "_root.money"

it should work...

[Deskarano]

One question. At 0:21, how did you turn the rectangle green. I'm still really new to this so...

[hormy1]

what does "unloadMovie();" works for? does it delete the clip?

[FlashUser95]

yes, the symbol, but it's still in the library.

[UchihaMizika]

if its the _root.char(hitTest) thing and then unloadeMovie it deletes the clip when "char" "hit" "this"

[ZTD09]

yo, so if i want a start button at the beginning I believe I have to Highlight a start button convert to symbol make it a button, (If I'm wrong correct me) Now I need a code to make it load the next frame.

If you could show me somewhere or even somewhere to teach how to make actionscripts I would love you. Anyway Yeah... (I subbed by the way.)

[ballr4lyfe]

[VampieGames]

dont worry about it, i wrote the code weird, just use the one in the description

[circassianlife]

how can i make a hard object? for example walls

[LsDesigns13]

To make a Hard object it takes alot of action script As you need to ad gravity into your charecter

so for example if he jumps he will fall and land on the ground And its the same for the walls he will jump hit the wall and bounce of it.

[circassianlife]

I c, i found out some way to do it, but do you know how to make a video, for example if i have a video, and i wanna call it to play after a certain stage, how can i do that?

[LsDesigns13]

So say at the end of the levle You watch a video ?

[FireTwucks]

make a thing to buy and convert to a button.

type:

on(release){

_root.money -=10

}

You can change the amount above to whatever but it was change the plus in it to a minus. Your welcome. Nice vid!!!

[deogrou]

ty man now it works i think i was forgotten to change the intance name off that guy to char :)

[shintashi]

this tutorial rocks. You can make anti-money (taxes?) by making similar movie clips with

_root.money-=10 instead of _root.money+=10

:)

[JackSpud999]
