FLASH: Preload Problem

[Flash Casey]

I have a preloader and it displays the percent of the

movie that is loaded.


I use a if statement that looks like this


If Frame Is Loaded (70)

      Set Variable: "percent" = "20%"

End Frame Loaded


If Frame Is Loaded (110)

      Set Variable: "percent" = "40%"

End Frame Loaded


If Frame Is Loaded (150)

      Set Variable: "percent" = "60%"

End Frame Loaded


If Frame Is Loaded (190)

      Set Variable: "percent" = "80%"

End Frame Loaded


If Frame Is Loaded (230)

      Set Variable: "percent" = "100%"

      Go to and Play (94)

End Frame Loaded



the problem is that it sometimes jumps from say 20 to

60. I know why it does this i think i just dont know

how to fix it. 


The reason I beleive is that some frames dont have

anything to load just a couple 'k' but on say frame 40

there is a image that takes 40k so to have frame 40

loaded will take alot longer than frame 20 which only

tweens a few small graphics.


Is there an easier way to figure out what percent of

your movie is downloaded.
