Changing frames on a button

Apr 22, 2012 9:01 AM

Hello, I was going to make a level select frame in my game, and to unlock the different level, you need to complete the previous level. I've done this, but I also want an effect on my button. So if level1 completed=true, it goes red, but if it's false, it goes gray. For a movieclip, I would have used

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {

          if (level1 == true)

          {

    this.lvl1btn.gotoAndStop(2);

          }

}

But that's only for movieclips, so do I have to make a pressable movieclip, or is there another way?

    If you want a button that will stay in different states you need to use a movieclip as a button.

     

    Just a tidbit else...

     

    if(level1 == true)

     

    can be reduced to 

     

    if(level1)

     

    conditinals work based on evaluating whether what is in the parentheses is true or false, so for Boolean values you don't need to use   == true/false
