Using text variable to control MC timelines

March 10th, 2010 by , under nnmj.com.

  • I have an external text file that flash loads variables from. each variable contains a number that corresponds to a frame in a movie clip instance. What I would like to do is - have the main time line tell each instance name of each movie clip to goto and stop on it's corresponding value.

    My text file includes the following: bapparel=5&bfootwear=70&bretail=35

    there are thee instances of a MC on the main time line.
    Each one is named (bappaerl, bfootwear, bretail, respectively.)

    I would like to set up an action on the main time line that would tell each of the MC instance to go to it's corresponding frame number and stop.

    I have been at this for days to no avail - Please help or direct me if you can.

    Many thanks.
