problem with scenes

[Daniel Posada]

Hi, I need to know how to make two buttons. the two buttons should play the same part of my animation, but when that part finishes each button should take me to a different scene.
I'm really new with flash and i dont seem to get it right.

Thanks for your time.

[Ms.Latte]

I don't understand ... How do you have it set up? could u show an example of what your trying to do?

[Daniel Posada]

well, lets think we have buttons A and B, if you push either one it will play frames 4 to 25, but after that, A button will take you to scene 3, while button B takes you to scene 7.

I'm planning the same way he is... he has a button on say frame 5, then he wants the animation to play out until say frame 20. On frame 20 he wants the as to figure out which button was pressed and go to thatt specific scene.

[Daniel Posada]

That's exactly my problem.

[Ms.Latte]

have buttonA have this in its script:
on (release) {
var buttonA = true;
gotoAndPlay(yourAnimation);
}

buttonB:
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay(yourAnimation);
}

on the last frame of "yourAnimation":
if (buttonA == true) {
gotoAndPlay("Scene 2", 1);
} else {
gotoAndPlay("Scene 3", 1);
}

what about if need to do this with more than two Buttons?

[Ms.Latte]

how many buttons are u talking about? the structure doesn't really change... could u elaborate?

[Daniel Posada]

HEY, Ms.Latte, i got it, is just like you said, but without the "else" part.

Thanks a lot, really, I mean it.
¡your the best!

Bye, and thanks again.

I'm kind of interested in this code, so I'm just going to practice it here :p



btn= new Array [button1_mc, button2_mc, button3_mc, button4_mc]

for (i=0, i<btn._length,i++){
_root.btn[i].onRelease () {
var btn[i] = true;
gotoAndPlay (3);
}
}

//on last frame:
if (btn[i]= true) {
gotoAndPlay ("scene [i]", 1);
}



Would that work? I just wrote that up now....
