Tweens dropping fps to 4

[chris]

hi, i have a problem with my first world. i have a boolean to trigger my intro at begin that contains different images that i all want to fade from one to another. after the last tween the player appears and you can step your way on the first map. i use this with a VarTween everytime (its about 20 of them) and it slows my fps from 60 to 4.

earlier the intro was a single world and it worked super except that little blink between world changes. so i moved them together and suddenly the fps drop.

i was wondering if the tweens although their type is set to oneshot arent removed entirely. so i tried different ways to remove them separatly - without sucess.

what do you think the fps drop could mean and is there maybe another simple solution as a vartween?

A friend sit to the game and suddenly the fps went high again after a few seconds. Problem solved :X

My game is feeling clunky

Have you tried running a release compile in the browser? It’s a common problem for flash games to do some odd vertical syncing and lock at 40fps in debug mode or on the desktop ‘flash projector’. The best way to test is in the browser.

Maybe this was the case?

I just ran it in firefox but the heavy drop just after the last tween is still there. I think its “ok” that there is a short delay since its just my post-compo of ld. but i’m still wondering why it is and i would like to know how to fix it.

i have certain feeling that its about all the tweens that maybe somehow doesnt get removed entirely. but i’m not sure how tweens are working in detail although i just spend a half hour in that tween class to get its heartbeat. so i was just about to post another post regarding the understanding of tweens but i have a feeling im already posting too much questions in here :x

(im a forum native so its natural for me to ask and give answers instead of reading a lot of books (although i bought some to read about programming in advance) and the irc is pretty dusty :'D )

(arr so much complaining, i’m sorry :x)

if i remove a tween (what the oneshot type is according to its code already doing) is it really removed? and i if i create with the same var i just used for the that tween the same tween again why isnt it working as the first?
