[AS3] Breakout Game Problem

[Crazysheep]

Hi, I'm a real newbie at flash.
Basically I need someone to help explain how I could make a breakout game.

The only problem I have is that I don't know how I could make the ball bounce off every brick without giving instance names to every single brick MovieClip and copy + pasting code a million times.

I'm thinking arrays or something.

Help please? Thanks.

(As you can see I'm a real newbie)

Look up tutorials on an "Array" and a "for loop" and "Array.length"

Then you can .push() all your bricks into an array and then loop through the array.

Thanks!
That seems about right, I've seen that .push() thing mentioned in several places. I'll have a look now, thanks again.
