1.Instead of using “com.asgamer.basic1″ directory you can also make this game in single folder

2.First save basic1.fla
in same folder save Engine.as & Ship.as

means save basic1.fla ,Ship.as and Engine.as in one folder

3.Change package com.asgamer.basics1 (first line in both as files)
to simply package

4.New code will be

For Engine.as

package //remove everything here
{

import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Stage;

public class Engine extends MovieClip
{

public function Engine()
{
var ourShip:Ship = new Ship();
stage.addChild(ourShip);
ourShip.x = stage.stageWidth / 2;
ourShip.y = stage.stageHeight / 2;

}

}

}

for Ship.as

package
{

import flash.display.MovieClip;

public class Ship extends MovieClip
{

public function Ship()
{

}

}

}

5. Change Linkage For ship movie clip (remove com.asgamer.basic1.Ship)
type this

Class: Ship
base: flash.display.MovieClip

6. Finally in basic1.fla Go to properties and change Class:Engine

remove that com.asgamer.basic1.Engine

7. Tutorial is nice and helps me to getting started in as3

my homepage (currently one page is loaded other are in progress)

First of all I`m really new to Flash as well so I came here to learn and spent nearly half an hour on how to make step4 and finally it worked.

You just have to create an Engine.as with codes as requested and a Ship.as with codes in a folder called “basics1″ that is nested in “asgamer” that is nested in “com” and put your fla file (whatever you want to name it) OUT of folder com but just in a same directory.
Moreover make sure any name is capotalised or lowercased, according to their names in .fla.

And this all! Hope this helps!!

Thanks for the tutorial!

The folders should have the following folders all inside one another in this format: (location where the .fla is)\com\asgamer\basics1. So it is com\asgamer\basic1

Look familiar? Remember this: “com.asgamer.basics1″? That’s why it’s in those darn folders.

So if you want it in just one folder (let’s call it AS) that isn’t nested in other folders, then you have the:
- Document class called AS.Engine
- Movie clip class as AS.Ship
- Package (in the Engine.as and Ship.as file itself) as ‘AS’

If its in the same directory as the .fla:
- package would be blank
- Document class would be Engine
- Movie clip class would be Ship
Get the picture now?

Just in case, if you haven’t got it, here’s a long one.
If you nest the AS files in the directory I:\Game\Resources\Code\AS:
- Package would look like “Package Game.Resources.Code.AS”
- Movie Clip class would be Game.Resources.Code.AS.Ship
- Document class would be Game.Resources.Code.AS.Engine

Best thing to do is toy around with the source code. just do minor changes and slowly learn how everything works.
