setInterval problem 2004-03-15 - By Adrian McTaggart
Back
I have a movie clip that is being duplicated and animated using the following
code. The problem is that the first time it runs it works fine, however the
second time the setInterval seems to be firing faster than every 2 seconds and
duplicates too many clips.
All this is within an mc that itself is on frame 3 of another mc. It is part of
a game and if the player loses the mc is brought on to the stage and moved to
frame 3. Not sure if the problem is with this code but can anyone spot any
problems with what I have here:
-- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ------
var i = 1;
showLoseBubble = setInterval(displayLoseBubbles, 2000);
function displayLoseBubbles() {
if (_global.winLoseBubbles == 2) {
bubbleLose_mc.duplicateMovieClip("bubbleLose"+i, i);
var bubbleX = Math.floor(Math.random() * (240));
var bubbleY = Math.floor(Math.random() * (90)) + 350;
setProperty ("bubbleLose"+i, _x, bubbleX);
setProperty ("bubbleLose"+i, _y, bubbleY);
i++;
trace("bubbleLose"+i); }
else {
clearInterval(showLoseBubble);
}
}

TIA,
Adrian
