Hi group,
AS2 newbie question here...
I've been going round and round in circles trying to work out the best
way of doing this, so maybe someone can help me.
Let's say I have a movieclip on the main timeline of my fla called
acrobat_mc which is an animation of a little man doing a somersault.
I also have a bunch of movieclips of audience members each controlled by
thier own instance of an AudienceMember object. The AudienceMember
object contains a method called applaud().
When the acrobat has finished doing his somersault, I want all the
instances of audienceMember to have their applaud methods triggered.
Now obviously, I could put a whole bunch of commands on the final frame
of my somersault animation such as:
_parent.audienceMember1.applaud();
_parent.audienceMember2.applaud();
_parent.audienceMember3.applaud();
etc...etc...
But what I really want is to just broadcast some message from that frame
on the acrobat's timeline which all the audience members will listen to
and automatically applaud.
How should I be doing this?
Cheers.
Mark.
