Class vs Timeline

[timf999]

Hi all

I've been programming AS3 for a few months now and want to move on to making games.

My first game is to be a top down tower defense game. My question is this: should I program my AS in a document class or on the timeline? I would usually use the class, but it would take SO MUCH hassle to try and get the 'things' to move in paths. I could do that much easier with a timeline.

HELP!!! Thanks in advance! :eek:

Howdy and Welcome... :)

I'd say you use whatever you are most comfortable with... If you are really into programming and OOP, it'd be best to use class based approach though...

Even if you use the timeline, any code you put there ultimately becomes a class.

Whether or not you, yourself, write in classes depends on how organized you want to be (classes = more organized ; )
