I have a Flash movie and when running it the CPU usage is up to around
100%. On the first frame of my movie (root) I have a script that calls
an external .as file (this file holds variable data). It then puts this
data into arrays. As follows:
__ ____ ____ ____ ____ ______
#include "trumps_data.as "
pack = [];
pack.total = 14;
pack.title = "which ship is the best? ";
pack.desc = "pack description test ";
pack.catA = "Size ";
pack.catB = "Strength ";
pack.catC = "Speed ";
pack.catD = "Fighting ";
pack[ 'cards '] = [];
for(i=1; i <=pack.total; i++){
pack[ 'cards '][i] = [];
pack[ 'cards '][i][ 'ID '] = i;
pack[ 'cards '][i][ 'title '] = this[ "title "+i];
pack[ 'cards '][i][ 'desc '] = this[ "desc "+i];
pack[ 'cards '][i][ 'catAScore '] = this[ "scoreA "+i];
pack[ 'cards '][i][ 'catBScore '] = this[ "scoreB "+i];
pack[ 'cards '][i][ 'catCScore '] = this[ "scoreC "+i];
pack[ 'cards '][i][ 'catDScore '] = this[ "scoreD "+i];
}
More code down here...to shuffle cards...to deal cards...etc

There is a 'playing card ' movie clip and after it is dealt and turned
over (tweened over frames) it stops on the last frame, the dynamic text
boxes (on the face of the card) are populated with the correct data.
This is done using the following script on the last frame of the
'playing card ' mc:
__ ____ ____ ____ ____ ______
root.pcc = _root.hand1[0];
cardTitle.text=_root.pack[ 'cards '][_root.pcc][ 'title '];
cardDesc.text=_root.pack[ 'cards '][_root.pcc][ 'desc '];
catAButton.catATitle.text=_root.pack.catA;
catBButton.catBTitle.text=_root.pack.catB;
catCButton.catCTitle.text=_root.pack.catC;
catDButton.catDTitle.text=_root.pack.catD;
catAScore.text=_root.pack[ 'cards '][_root.pcc][ 'catAScore '];
catBScore.text=_root.pack[ 'cards '][_root.pcc][ 'catBScore '];
catCScore.text=_root.pack[ 'cards '][_root.pcc][ 'catCScore '];
catDScore.text=_root.pack[ 'cards '][_root.pcc][ 'catDScore '];
playerImageHolder.loadMovie( "shark.jpg ");
playerImageHolder._y = 0;
stop();

This 'playing card ' script seems to be causing problems with the CPU as
if I comment it out and the card is not populated with data the Flash
Player is not taking up the CPU usage.
If anyone has any ideas on why this code would cause the CPU usage to
jump right up, it would be much appreciated as at the moment the movie
is unlikely to function well on slower machines!
Many thanks,
Adrian
