first flash game please view and help

[way2good4u_uk]

THE PROBLEM IS I HAVNT GOT A CLUE WHERE TO START IVE TRIED INCORPERATING SCRIPTS FROM OTHER EXAMPLES E.T.C BUT I CANT SEEM TO GET THEM TO WORK
IF SOMEONE COULD POINT ME IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION IM SURE I COULD FIGURE OUT THE REST. IM NOT A VERY GOOD ACTIONSCRIPTER I SEEM TO SPEND MY TIME ON
BETWEEN FLASH, SWIFT 3D AND 3DSMAX SIMPLY FOR WEBSITES AND PRESENTATIONS.
IF ANYONE COULD HELP IT WOULD BE GREAT. BECAUSE I THINK ONCE I GET THESE POINTS DONE IT HAS THE POTENTIAL FOR BEING A FUNNY GAME.

ALL THE BEST

Nice game here :)

mmm, you don't tell what you want to do with it or what is not working(or im missing something here?), anyway...:

remove the cow when it hits the trucks, increase the speed on enemy trucks, center the trucks on each track... spend a little more time on graphics (i love the cow as it is now!!), good luck!!!

:cool:

the thing i really want to know is how to wite a statement that

if the dynamic score box "SCORE" reaches a certain number the movie goes and to and play a new level (another frame number)


im not sure where to do this as im not sure how to check the score value and i dont know how to send the movie to a certain frame

any help would be brilliant

thanks

ps sorry about the very garbled post but it was very late when i posted it :)

[zoomfreddy]

ahhhh, ok do this:

on a empty mc as a movieclip event:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (_root.score<10000) {
_root.gotoAndPlay("nextLevel");
}
}

thank you for the tips and tricks i am very happy for it to be my first game

charlie :D

ps if anyone knows why the trucks go over the top of the bridges on the secound level (even though the bridge layer is above the truck layer) please say as i will have to take it off otherwise

thanks again
