[Request] Script Problem


	Code: onClipEvent (load) { speed = 0; maxmove = 15; } onClipEvent (enterFrame) { if (_root.dead) { this.gotoAndStop("dead"); } else { speed *= .85; if (speed>0) { dir = "right"; } else if (speed<0) { dir = "left"; } if (dir == "right"){ this._x += speed; _root._x -= speed; } if (dir == "left") { this._x += speed; _root._x -= speed; } if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) { if (speed>-maxmove) { speed--; } this.gotoAndStop("run"); this._xscale = -100; } else if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) { if (speed<maxmove) { speed++; } this._xscale = 100; this.gotoAndStop("run"); } if (speed<1 && speed>-1 && !attacking) { speed = 0; this.gotoAndStop("idle"); } } }

I get errors saying this action can only be played in a movie clip, while it is a movie clip.

Symbol=Character, Layer=Layer 1, Frame=1: Line 1: Clip events are permitted only for movie clip instances
onClipEvent (load) {

Symbol=Character, Layer=Layer 1, Frame=1: Line 5: Clip events are permitted only for movie clip instances
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {

Are you sure the symbol is a MC?Maybe its a button or graphic.

Re: [Request] Script Problem

I have placed your code into code tags and properly indented it for clarity - not only is it easier to read by indenting it but it also helps to pick out any errors that may occur from misplacing {'s and }'s. I have corrected the code below for you - you basically inserted an extra } at the end of the second onClipEvent statement. Remember any code attached to a movie clip MUST be contained within an onClipEvent statement so in other words it wasn't.

I hope this works, this is the only obvious error I can see without actually reproducing the error in flash. If it doesn't then let me know
