I've been reading through some of the docs and the LocalConnection functionality seems pretty cool! (p.193 Using Director pdf)
"The Flash local connection object can be very useful for allowing separate movies on the same computer to connect to and communicate with each other. Because the local connection object is a Flash object supported in Director, it can allow communication between separate Flash content, Director movies, or combinations of the two. You can use the messaging capability of the local connection object for simple tasks such as exchanging sprite property data, or for more complex ones such as exchanging chat messages when used in conjunction with the Flash Communication Server."
It seems you can use this messaging layer as an alternative to using 'tell' to communicate across LDMs, MIAWs, and flash sprite's transparently... Just fishing for uses here.... Maybe have indedendent swfs that are all on the same frame communicate without having to be within the same file? What other thoughts do people have about using this new feature in DMX2K4?
