[AS2] what do i do if i want to keep the money from the first frame if i use a new fr

[ccoonnyy]

hello i need some help with my flash project , im doing a game wich involves money and stuff like that, but what do i do if i want to keep the money from the first frame if i use a new frame?

like this , i have 100 money then i use 50 when i reach frame 2 (by clicking something) my money resets to 100 again

you're probably redefining your money variable each time you go to a new frame.

could you attach the file?

[ccoonnyy]

how do i do that?

[ccoonnyy]

heres the file , its a bit messy as you se... but i dont want it like everything on the first frame like that

[ccoonnyy]

how do i keep my money if i enter annother frame ? lets say im one the first frame and i hade 100 money then i enter second fram my money resets to 100 again even if i spended some ?

im newb so if anyone can explain i would be happy

Firstly, don't triple/double post, edit your last post instead.

Secondly, haven't really looked at your file but make sure that you are not using an onEnterFrame function to define your money or like ntou45 said, make sure you don't redefine your money at every frame.

how do i keep my money if i want to go to annother frame in my game ?
because everytime i use

on(release){
gotoAndPlay(_root._currentFrame + 1)
}

my money resets to what it was in the beginning , i havent done any variables because i dont know how they work

You really need to be more specific.

We have no idea what you are referring to.

Provide more information, or provide your FLA.

First it's _currentframe and not _currenFrame...

Second, you do need to use a variable, so attach your .fla.

like this , i done a static text wich is named money, and in my game you start with 100 money,

money = 100;

when i buy stuff in my game i use money = money - (price)

but my problem is i have the whole game on one frame because when i use gotoAndStop(2) my money from the first fram resets to 100 again

sry , my english isn´t the best , hope you understand

heres my fla ,

don't double post, edit your last one!!

Now...to solve it, just use _global variables!

example:- _global.money = 31;

it wont change its value throughout your swf unless you change the value yourself!

[ccoonnyy]

thank you bluemagica , how do i link them to a dynamic textbox ? so that the values show there?

[bluemagica]

like movieclips, your textbox must also have a instance name, right? so you just put the text there, like:

mytextbox.text = _global.money;
