//Try this :
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.utils.setInterval;
import flash.utils.clearInterval;
import fireBall;
public class Fire extends MovieClip
{
private var mcFlameContainer:MovieClip;

Assuming you're using AS3, you might want to rewrite it as such:
public function Fire() {
mcFlameContainer = new MovieClip();
addChild(mcFlameContainer);
var t:Timer = new Timer(15, 10);
t.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, _addNewFlame, 15);
}

Hi,
Maybe it's because you looped through the loop before you started
adding flames - e.g. i is 10 by the time the first flame is added...
Can you just use the number of children already in the container to
set the x position of the next flameNew?

The timeout runs after the loop completes. The callback will use the
current value of i, and the loop leaves it at 10. So naturally, that is
what the timeout will see.
I fail to see the purpose of setting a timeout in a loop like this. Just
move the loop to inside the timeout. This way, you

Hi John...
You're listening for TimerEvent.TIMER.
when you instance a new Timer, you pass two parameters. First, you pass the
time in milliseconds, from your code, it was 15. Then instead of looping
through to get 10 instances of the fireball, just run the timer 10 times.
That's the second
