petermaxo: i didn't completly understand your question, but I think that's you should remove the first onEnterFrame, since every time a frame passes it redefine the variable action. If you change it in a frame, the next second it will re-become hit

Okay, let me explain it better. I told it to attatch the movie "playerhit" whenever the variable _global.action = "hit". on 1 frame in the movie clip "greenslimeattack", which is attached earlier, the variable _global.action = hit. when I run the movie, _global.variable != hit, no matter how many times the frame in the movie clip goes by.

some more clarification, the total script is:

on the scene:

if(_global.back == 1){
_root.attachMovie("grassback", "back", 1,{_x:335,_y:300})
}if(_global.back == 2){
_root.attachMovie("labback1", "back", 1,{_x:335,_y:300})
}if(_global.back == 3){
_root.attachMovie("labback2", "back", 1,{_x:335,_y:300})
}if(_global.back == 4){
_root.attachMovie("riverback", "back", 1,{_x:335,_y:300}) // determines the background
}if(_global.ename == "green slime"){
_root.attachMovie("greenslimeattack", "enemy", 3,{_x:400,_y:300})// determines the enemy
}_root.enemy.play()// plays the enemy movie
_root.onEnterFrame = function(){
if(_global.action == "hit"){
_root.attachMovie("playerhit", "player", 2, {_x:200,_y:300})// attatches the movie "playerhit" if action = "hit"
}if(_global.action == "attackcomplete"){
gotoAndStop("battle")
}
}




on the movie clip "greenslimeattack" frame 6:

_global.action = "hit"



Edit: is it just me, or have things been a little quiet around here?

I have another problem. what code should I use to set the global variable eaction to "attack" when the movie clip enemy is within 50 pixils of the movie clip player?

okay, I figured out what was wrong with my earlier script, but ran into ANOTHER problem. how does one destroy a movie clip attatched to the root?

Grr... I just realized it was that pesky _root.onEnterFrame again!
good news is, Problem solved (finally)

and in case anyone's wondering, I am working on something big. I may tell you about it when I am done.

SirSchmoopy: wow, your question is waaaaaaay too large...if you don't know flash AS and want to create a RPG, then use RPGMXP, it's easier and gives you many templates. Or you could learn flash AS

If you can't understand RMXP, than an rpg in flash IS WAY TOO MUCH. In fact, for MOST people, an rpg is way too much. If you're too lazy to understand RMXP, I'm sorry, you can't learn flash. No offence or anything...

No offense, I absolutely hate all the game maker programs that basically do the work for you.

I hate even more those "Free sprite sheets" sites that allow you to basically create sprites that look awesome with other people's art. Blech.


And, dude, there's a ton you could do with the free trial. Just don't start with an RPG; start with like a simple space shooter.

Code:

_root.onEnterFrame = function(){
trace(action)
if(_global.action == "hit"){
if(_global.condition == "ready"){
_root.player.removeMovieClip()
_root.attachMovie("playerhit", "player", 2, {_x:200,_y:300})
_root.player.play()
_global.condition = "wait"
}
}trace(action)
}

Problem: nothing happens. it doesn't even trace the variable. No error message appears when I check it.

don't tell me it's another onEnterFrame error...XD(I told you to not abuse them lol)
is the variable action defined? if it is, where is it? on _root? or somewhere else?

no it is not another one of those. all variables are defined, and even if they weren't it would still trace 'undefined'.
