Hello Everybody
I have a question on the timing and detecting mouseClick in Actionscript. I have this simple game of Whack a Mole.
My first problem is when I needed to addChild and removeChild a few seconds later. In a human way of saying, I want my animation of moleComingOut to be added to stage and wait for one second, after that second has passed, I want the remove the animation of the moleComingOut and add the animation of moleGoingDown to stage. After it finishes running the clip, I want it removedChild off the stage. The problem is that I don't know how to let it pass 1 second and remove itself while adding the moleGoingDown, and remove the moleGoingDown when it finishes running. The elements moleComingOut and moleGoingDown are movieclips that I have in my library. Thank you!
My second problem is on detecting mouse being clicked. Is there any way of detecting mouse being clicked? I want it so that (from the above question) when the moleComingOut is waiting for 1 second, detect any mouse being clicked on the mole, and display a moleHit animation, and remove itself. Is there any way of doing this? I know that in Java you can do it in a if/else statement but how about ActionScript? Thanks!
I can post my code up if needed. Thank you for taking time on my question! I appreciate it very much!
