Global variables in Flash MX 1

[shaddow]

Here is what i have.
I have a main movie that loads when needed other movies on diferent layers.
What i need to knw is that is posible to see the main movie variable in the loaded movie.

Or somehow to not relay on loadVariableNum, it's preatty anoying to check on the server each time you do an task

im not very sure what you are asking. can you give more details?

if you just want to pass a variable to other movies thats easy enough

If you're loading external movies on other levels, or in empty movie clip containers, you can easily check or set any variable of the main movie, if the variables were set with _level0.my_var to start with... In MX you can even use _global.my_var.

In the main movie...

_level0.my_var = value;

Then in the loaded movie... (level or container clip)

trace(_level0.my_var);

Or...

_level5.my_var5 = _level0.my_var;

Or...

_level0.my_var = new_value;
