So I'm creating a platform game in Actionscript 3.0, trying to call a function that spawns blocks based on an array. The code is in a 'Game' class and is directed towards a movieclip on my .fla When it is ran I get the error: "cannot convert flash.display::Stage@2a2cdf99 to flash.display.MovieClip." Here's the code:
public function GameScreen(stageRef:Stage = null )
{
this.stageRef = stageRef;
btnReturn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, returnMainMenu, false, 0, true);
mcMain.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, moveChar);
this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, createLvl);
this.stageRef.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, checkKeysDown);
this.stageRef.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_UP, checkKeysUp);
this.stageRef.addChild(blockHolder);
}
And
private function createLvl(event:Event):void
{
var lvlArray:Array = MovieClip(root)['lvlArray' +lvlCurrent];
var lvlColumns:int = Math.ceil(lvlArray.length/16);
for(var i:int = 0;i<lvlArray.length;i++){
if(lvlArray[i] == 1){
if(i/lvlColumns == int(i/lvlColumns)){
row ++;
}
var newBlock:Block = new Block();
newBlock.graphics.beginFill(0xFFFFFF);
newBlock.graphics.drawRect(0,0,50,50);
newBlock.x = (i-(row-1)*lvlColumns)*newBlock.width;
newBlock.y = (row - 1)*newBlock.height;
blockHolder.addChild(newBlock);
} else if (lvlArray[i] == 'MAIN'){
mcMain.x = (i-(row-1)*lvlColumns)*newBlock.width;
mcMain.y = (row-1)*newBlock.height;
}
}
row = 0;
}
Please help =(
Thanks!
