Boxes and more boxes #2

My second entry

_root.createEmptyMovieClip("square", 0), i=0;
square.beginFill(0x0), square.moveTo(-5, -5), square.lineTo(-5, -5), square.lineTo(-5, 5), square.lineTo(5, 5), square.lineTo(5, -5), square.endFill();
square._x=Stage.width/2, square._y=Stage.height/2;
function create() {
square.duplicateMovieClip("explode"+[++i], _root.getNextHighestDepth(), {_x:stage.width/2, _y:stage.height/2, clr:"0x"+random(999999), _rotation:random(359), dir:random(10)+5, onEnterFrame:function () {
var cl:Color = new Color(this);
this._xscale=this._yscale -= 1, cl.setRGB(this.clr);
this._x += Math.sin(this._rotation*(Math.PI/180))*this.dir, this._y -= Math.cos(this._rotation*(Math.PI/180))*this.dir;
this._alpha -= 1.5, this._xscale=this._yscale += random(10), this._alpha<5 ? this.removeMovieClip() : this._alpha -= 3;
}});
}
setInterval(create, 20);

I can't see anything :alien:

Boxes and more boxes fail to appear. :) Whats with all of the commas in there? Aren't they supposed to be semicolons?

[esnetni]

I fixed it

square.beginFill(0x0), square.moveTo(-5, -5), square.lineTo(-5, -5), square.lineTo(-5, 5), square.lineTo(5, 5), square.lineTo(5, -5), square.endFill();
That should be split into multiple lines. You have too many statements separated by commas. The only "correct" place you used commas was when assigning the duplicateMovieClip properties in-between the { } tags. Everywhere else, you can't do that for this contest.

While you may, even by spreading out the commas into statements, fall within the 25 line limit, it makes the code more suspicious if you use commas like that :P

:cool:

that is why i expanded his code in his other entry



_root.createEmptyMovieClip("square", 0), i=0;
//1
square.beginFill(0x0);
//2
square.moveTo(-5, -5);
//3
square.lineTo(-5, -5);
//4
square.lineTo(-5, 5);
//5
square.lineTo(5, 5);
//6
square.lineTo(5, -5);
//7
square.endFill();
//8
square._x = Stage.width/2;
//9
square._y = Stage.height/2;
//10
function create() {
square.duplicateMovieClip("explode"+[++i], _root.getNextHighestDepth(), {_x:stage.width/2, _y:stage.height/2, clr:"0x"+random(999999), _rotation:random(359), dir:random(10)+5, onEnterFrame:function () {
//11
var cl:Color = new Color(this);
//12
this._xscale=this._yscale -= 1, cl.setRGB(this.clr);
//13
this._x += Math.sin(this._rotation*(Math.PI/180))*this.dir;
//14
this._y -= Math.cos(this._rotation*(Math.PI/180))*this.dir;
//15
this._alpha -= 1.5;
//16
this._xscale = this._yscale += random(10);
//17
this._alpha<5 ? this.removeMovieClip() : this._alpha -= 3;
//18
}});
}
setInterval(create, 20);
//19


ohh, and i like to number them :P
