Flash player will load the frames of an swf file in sequence and will start executing the code of the first frame as soon as the first frame is loaded. You can do the following:
1, main code starts loading external engine swf, waits for it to load 2, meanwhile, the second frame with heavy assets is already loading 3, external swf loaded, you should now wait in main until the second frame is loaded 4, do the logic with the engine and assets Alternatively, you can just load the assets from a separate external swf too instead of placing them on the second frame.
