Slow external loaded movie 2004-03-10 - By Adrian McTaggart
Back
Thank you Jason,
You mention making the bubbles every other frame. Say my movie is 36 fps and I
want a bubble about every 2 seconds, how would I adapt the code I have below
working to frames?
You ask why don't I use 440-350. The simple answer is there is no reason just
not thinking straight! I've now changed it to 90.
Thanks,
Adrian

This is most likely why you see the slowdown.
Why is this on the onEnterFrame handler? For animation's sake? Could also be
done with a for loop, or make the bubbles every other frame or something.
On an unrelated note, you have " * (440 - 350)) + 350 "- just wondering why
since its the same as " *90+350 "
