Um... not quite sure what you're up to here - but it sounds like you're getting a bit confused between IWorldPart and WorldPart.
What you need is: interface IWorldPart class SomeWorldPartSubclass implements IWorldPart then var myPart:IWorldPart = new SomeWorldPartSubclass(); should be fine. _OR_ interface WorldPart class SomeWorldPartSubclass implements WorldPart then var myPart:WorldPart = new SomeWorldPartSubclass(); Not quite sure why your description mentions both IWorldPart and WorldPart - unless WorldPart implements IWorldPart..? In which case you're looking for: interface IWorldPart class WorldPart implements IWorldPart class SomeWorldPartSubclass extends WorldPart then either var myPart:WorldPart = new SomeWorldPartSubclass(); or var myPart:IWorldPart = new SomeWorldPartSubclass(); should both work...
