I have made a consol for any flash aplication.
just paste the mc into you exisiting flash game/movie.
the console is for deBugging, it can change, display variables it also can display messages play movieclips and change frames.
this little app has saved me countless hours of time! and LOADS of traces!
Its well good because you can edit stuff during run time, like all those traces you forget and all the alterations to variables to see what happens if chees = "pie".
press the "tidle" key to open and close
the ~ key
press the insert button to send you message.
here is the inbuilt documentation for you because im lasy!
---HELP---
there is a list of the commans that can be used.
disp: (note the space after the : that is very important) this displays a variable from the _root of the movie.
example disp: hero.speed
NOTE to display an array use this syntax Array.n instead of Array[n]
example disp: ammoArray.1
edit: (notice the space again) this edits a variable from the _root
example edit: hero.speed=30 or edit: hero.gunType="shotGun"
notice no spaces between the =.
NOTE to edit an array use this syntax Array.n=bleh instead of Array[n]
example disp: ammoArray.1=55
/ this displays a mesage in the output screen
example /hello world!
clear clears the output screen
credit the most vital part of the whole thing :P displays who made it, me shazwoogle :D
goFrame: gotoand stop at a frame example
goframe: hero.flash=15 or if you want to change the _root frame goframe: 15
play: plays a timeline (notice the space)
example play: hero.feet or play: hero

there are no bugs but there is 1 limitation.... you cant acces things beong 5 places.. like this.
this would be ok
hero.somthing.belh.blah.bob="omg cheese";
but this wouldent be
hero.somthing.belh.blah.bob.eeh="no cheese for you!";
Enjoy :D
