I’m trying to create dynamic balls by using a for loop. For some reason

  • 0

I’m trying to create dynamic balls by using a for loop. For some reason I get two objects (trace show 2 balls and their DIFFERENT properties), but on the stage I can see just a last one created.

This is my code:

var randomBall_mc:ball=new ball(); for (i=1; i<3; i++) {         addChild(randomBall_mc);     randomBall_mc.name='randomBall'+i;     randomBall_mc.x=150*i;     randomBall_mc.y=175;     randomBall_mc.height=20*i;     randomBall_mc.width=20*i;         trace('randomBall'+i);     trace(randomBall_mc.x);     trace(randomBall_mc.height); } 

What is wrong in my code?

    var randomBall_mc:ball=new ball(); should be inside the for loop in order to create more than ONE ‘ball’

    for (i=1; i<3; i++) { var randomBall_mc:ball=new ball();** addChild(randomBall_mc); randomBall_mc.name='randomBall'+i; randomBall_mc.x=150*i; randomBall_mc.y=175; randomBall_mc.height=20*i; randomBall_mc.width=20*i; trace('randomBall'+i); trace(randomBall_mc.x); trace(randomBall_mc.height);}
