new to Flash –
I have a main FLA that loads and runs my entire flash/AS3 project. It always seems to take the same amount of time (~3 minutes) no matter what code has changed. Does Flash have the concept of makefiles? Is it always rebuilding all of my code?
Yes, if you build within the Flash IDE, it builds the entire fla. For large projects, I break the project into different fla’s, build them separately, and have the main fla dynamically load in other swf’s.
