I have a problem with the game over menu. I called it "GameOverMenu" and its export is "GameOverMenu" - just like in the tutorial. Now when I try to run the game, I get this error: "1120: Access of undefined property gameOverMenu." I get that error 8 times - the number of times "gameOverMenu" is written in my Game.as file. I tried changing "gameOverMenu" to "GameOverMenu" but that didn't help. Can someone please explain what the problem is?

For score format, the code is correct, but the score format code has to be before the score text code because if you are defining a default text format, you need to define it before drawing the text. ALSO, in order to define scoreText's text format, you have to create it first, so replace this line: static var scoreText:TextField; with this:static var scoreText:TextField=new TextField(); in your variables spot. Take that Cantor.

To answer the one question most people have for this tut, defaultTextFormat is WRONG! instead use: scoreText.setTextFormat(scoreFormat);
Quite a simple little error but causes so much frustration :P
