Hi Eric,
i often got the same problem, which I usually resolve with these
basic rules :
- when creating MCs inside a loop, first create an empty movieClip
before the loop to contain the other clips :
var containerMc:MovieClip = _root.createEmptyMovieClip
("containerMc", 10);
for (var i=0;i<3;i++)
{
var clip:MovieClip = containerMc.attachMovie(....)
}
then, when you need to remove them, juste invoke
containerMc.removeMovieClip();
- do not use getNextHighestDepth()
- keep on _root a manageable array of attached MCs
- do not attach on _root.
The weird thing is, using your script on an almost empty movie, the
removeMovieClip method works allright...
maybe you can try using _level0 instead of _root, or try the
container trick above.
Hope this helps,
Gilles

It seems that I might have a timing problem... I am running very large
(1920x1080) and I guess its taking quite a while to destroy the
clips. I've
made some workarounds, but there is still a clip I cannot seem to
destroy
here. Fun stuff :/

I am attaching 3 movieclips, then later need to remove them. No
dice. This
seems SO noob, but its not happening:
for( var i=0; i<3; i++)
{
var clip:MovieClip = _root.attachMovie( "object_3D",
"object_3D_" + i,
i+40 );
// other normal stuff
}
then later I run this function:
killCamera = function():Void
{
for( var i=0; i<3; i++ )
{
_root["object_3D_"+i].removeMovieClip(); //Does
nothing... clips
remain
}
// Hmm... lets try this & make sure they are really there:
for (prop in _root)
{
if( typeof( _root[prop] ) == "movieclip" )
{
if( _root[prop]._name.indexOf("object_3D") != -1 )
{
trace( _root[prop]._name ); // traces the
instance
name just fine...
_root[prop].removeMovieClip(); // Does nothing...
}
}
}
};
These freaking clips stick around for some reason. ???
