MovieClip Speed AS?

in actionscript 2.0 how might i use actionscript to increase the framerate of a movieclip when a certain thing happens for example on a button with the on(release) {
}

handler

how could i make the button increase the framerate of my movieclip or the speed at which it is played?

I’ve heard it said that you can’t change the framerate of a running swf (or at least, you can’t change it through AS)

In AS2, you cannot change the frame rate at runtime. Only AS3 can do that.

Your best bet is to use a tweener package (TweenMax, Tweener, gTween, etc), and tween the MC’s frame from wherever it starts to the end in less time or more time, depending.

ok well thank you anyway. i guess i cant make my game :*(

you can, however, use timers instead… (setInterval, setTimeout)

You can change the framerate in AS3?

yeah…. stage.framerate = x….
