Question

I have the following code (stripped down):

public class Character extends MovieClip
{
  var happiness:uint;

  public Character()
  {
    happiness = 0;
  }

  private function doTheTween():void
  {
    TweenLite.to(this, 3, { happiness:100, onComplete:onTweenComplete } );
  }

  private function onTweenComplete():void
  {
    // do stuff
  }
}

When tracing the happiness variable every frame it stays at 0 after the tween has been called, and the onTweenComplete function is never called. Is it even possible to use TweenLite in this manner or have I missed something stupidly obvious?

Answer 1

No you didn’t, it is possible. Just try to make happiness variable of Number type, and make that variable public.
