Under rating threshold (show) @Oreon Necris I have the same predicament as you had, Any info you can remember will be helpful. For anyone who didn't see, My ship spawns in the top left corner and I get an error saying "Symbol=EnemyShip, layer=Layer 1, frame=1, Line 1 The class or interface 'EnemyShip' could not be loaded." im running CS5.5 on a windows vista. The enemy also does not move. I have codes exactly how it says in here.

Under rating threshold (show) Hi. I am having a problem. There should be single enemy ships coming out each time, right? But with mine, two enemy ships come out together every time. What should I do? I don't see any part of the codes here that tells how many enemy ships should come out for each instance. Thanks.

Under rating threshold (show) If you had the same problem as me, copying the code exactly from the screenshot only to have it result with no enemy ships and no control over your own ship, add an extra '{' bracket to the bottom of the code.

Under rating threshold (show) Forget my other comment. Just go to library, click on "EnemyShip" (should already be there) and delete it. Hope it helps

Under rating threshold (show) If you don't name the enemy ships EnemyShip, where it puts _root.attachMovie("EnemyShip",etc change EnemyShip by the name of your current enemy ships. For example if the enemy ship is called AlienShip, you must put _root.attachMovie("AlienShip", etc). Maybe thats the problem that makes the enemies not appearing.

Under rating threshold (show) *If the Enemy ship disappears after 2 seconds* I had a typo in getNextHighestDepth. So it didn't read that it should assign a new number to each one and was generating the same one over and over again (i.e. deleting it every 60 frames and regenerating it on the left side of the screen).

Under rating threshold (show) At first I didn't know where to paste the _y = Math.random()*200 + 50; bit so I put it in the Ship.as... big mistake every time an enemy ship spawned it would teleport my ship to random parts of the screen. Thankfully I found it now :P

Under rating threshold (show) For those who seem to have correctly copied the code, but have errors: Perhaps you are missing one of these: ; { } ( ) Or perhaps you have put parts of code in the wrong place. Remember: Computers are the most stupid things you could possibly "talk to". If you don't "speak" their language perfectly flawless, they will not understand you.

Under rating threshold (show) For those of you who are trying to do this in AS3, I advise you make destructor methods, and even consider making an abstract parent class that handles all of your necessary parameters automatically (speed, registering EnterFrame, a generic destructor method). Also, if you are having trouble with a ship always appearing in the begining, that is because you didn't delete the enemy ship from the first frame. This was tough for me, because I couldn't find it behind my own ship.

Under rating threshold (show) I know a lot of people have said this already but, i cannot get enemy ships to appear. the only way i have gotten it to work is by placing one on the stage. I have checked the code several times, i have deleted and remade the enemy ships movieclip several times, and it still doesn't work please pm me with an answer if you have one.
