Re: FLASH: MC Names & stars

[Cheri Harder]

Hi.


I'm going to do some testing in a minute, but first had two comments.  When

you set your initial variable as random, you are saying sometimes it is ok

to have only one star.  It looks like this initial value of StarNo ought to

be 20.  Secondly, your Duplicate Movie Clip statement indicates to me that

the original mc is named a name that will get duplicated, that is Star1 is

the original and will likely be one of the new names as well.  Don't know if

that hurts anything....


Back in a bit with any other news after testing!
