Hello Paul,
If you already have an instances of Boiler on the stage you can use
boiler's self-registering in your game class.
For example you have in library:
"Game_mc", linkage - Game_mc, AS 2 class - Game.
"Bolier_mc", linkage - Boiler_mc, AS 2 class - Boiler.
On the stage you have an instance of Game_mc contained instances of
Bolier_mc inside
in example you needn't to know instance name of your boilers
example of self-registration:
======================
import Game;
class Boiler extends MovieClip {
private var game_mc : Game;
private function Boiler() {
this.game_mc = Game(this._parent);
this.game_mc.registerBoiler(this);
}
}
========================
class Game extends MovieClip {
private var boilers : Array;
private function Game() {
}
/**registerBoiler (Game.registerBoiler method)
* public registerBoiler (boiler_mc:Boiler) : Void;
* <pre>
*
* </pre>
* @param boiler_mc:Boiler ≈
* @return Void ≈
* <pre>
*
* </pre>
* <B>Example:</B>
* <pre>
* import Game;
*
* </pre>
**/
public function registerBoiler (boiler_mc:Boiler):Void {
this.boilers.push(boiler_mc);
// other actions
}
}
=========================
PS> I do not want to create the boiler movie clips as these are already on the
PS> stage.
PS> Basically I want to be able to control a nested movie clip within each
PS> boiler, that is called "needle_mc"
PS> And I want the boiler object to store unique properties for each of the
PS> boilers.
PS> Your code looks very complex for my requirements - can I not simply
PS> dynamically create the boiler movie clip path reference and pass it to the
PS> boiler instance similar to how I passed the path to the Game class?
PS> Thanks
PS> Paul
