Never-mind, i figured it out. i was double clicking on the ship movie instead of of a single click on the ship in scene 1.

I'm on page 2 and when i went to select the ship, i got a dashed-grey line not a blue one. I'm using cs4 by the way. also I don't see the info bar that is shown at the bottom of the shootorial page.

Dont save the source files to the same folder as your current work. You will lose your current work and it will be replaced with the finished product... i had to learn that the hard way.

@anakin2177, create a new symbol of type MovieClip. Double click it in library to edit it. Draw something. Right click on another frame in the timeline, choose insert new keyframe. draw something else in that frame. Tadah, animation :D

when i change the instance name for the Ship it stops reading the action script file. id doesn't move, shoot, and enemies dont spawn. when i remove the instance name everything goes back to working.

@Operator.
You replaced the existing ship.as with a new one?Well i guess your only options are to either continue on wit the new one and maybe find picture of full ship as from the last point you were making your ship.as or you could just start again from scratch.

It's all easy! All you need is advanced attention-paying skills, if something is wrong, just undo 12% of your work, and do-over what it says but pay more attention, 90% of all problems caused is when you forget one tiny line..

Hydrolaze maybe you are using a too small number to spawn enemies, remember that every second has 30 frames so for every spawn you have to count to 30*how many seconds you want them to spawn

This is a great tutorial, but I've done absolutely everything perfect to page 10 and when I test the game spawns literally HUNDREDS of enemyships at me. My missiles work, they are destroying the enemies, but I can't figure out why it's spawning so many enemies.

Oooh so right click the link on the frist page, then click open on a new window. then right when it come up it closes for me. so what I did is quickly press ctl+a when the window came up. That helped me get the source.

@ DrFr0st and BigBoy120, If you idiot just came here to complain, stfu. No one wants to hear you just because you suck at flash. If you don't have anything good to say, don't say anything at all. Not that anyone cares since you are level 5 and below.
