This was working fine last night, but today I moved it to a new keyframe and now it's not working. I'm not getting any errors (even if I debug). It just won't move the character or even show up in output.
I'm still quite new to as3, so I don't really know what to do.
Thanks in advance.
Edit: After playing with it a bit, I've found out that the reason it's not working is due to the menu. The menu has a single button and two text elements, which are fine. The code that I'm using on the menu is this:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
stop();
var format:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
format.size = 26;
format.bold = true;
playGameButton.setStyle("textFormat", format);
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playGame);
function playGame(e:MouseEvent) {
if(e.target.name == "playGameButton") {
gotoAndStop(2);
}
}
If I use just gotoAndStop(2); it works fine, but with everything else it just goes to the second frame, and nothing else works after that.
Edit #2: I've narrowed it down even farther to the if statement itself.
if(e.target == playGameButton)
if(e.target.name == "playGameButton")
Both of those don't work. If I just remove the if statement all together it works perfectly fine.
