Hey,
i have an Archer and when i move my mouse around the stage his arms and bow follow but when i press it should play the Archer shooting, and it does but it keeps repeating and never stops and if i click again it does not stop or play another shooting animation.. Plz help..

CODE
stop();
_root.onRelease = function() {
    _root.arrowman.gotoAndPlay(2);
}

see on release it should play the animation and then on the last frame of animation i put stop(); so it stops it but it ignores that and plays forever.. this is probly easy but i just dont get it. someone plz help

Thanks in advance..

I am not sure but onMouseDown only plays once for me (Flash 8) Maybe try changing the stop to this.stop(); to tell the movieclip to stop and not everything.

Hope that helps.
