FLASH: ADVANCED ACTIONSCRIPT : go frame 1

[Jason & Merav]

Hi all,


Please only this question if you are sure of the answer ... as I have heard

many 'I think' opinions ... and I need a definitive answer.


In order to get a MC to have a recurring action (lets say 'actionX'), one

must put 'actionX' in frame 1 of the MC, and in frame 2 a 'goto and play

frame 1' action.


This is clear. The question is, what is the effect in putting 'actionX' ALSO

in frame 2, before the goto and play frame 1 action???


I ran my inital testing on a slow machine (PII 233), where this double call

of the action seemed to slow the movie down ... however, on my faster PIII

500, the movie ran faster.


I would love to know what really goes on here.


Thanks,


Jason.
