Is there a way to make symbols variable in AS3? I want the user to select one of lets say 4
static images in the first frame and then the image they select would be used in the actual
animation in the following frames. I tried to put all 4 images into the frames of one movie clip
symbol and have the movie clip gotoAndStop on whatever image was selected but I can't seem to
pass the variable established outside the clip to the clip itself.
If none of this makes sense I can try to clarify further and in case it wasn't obvious I have no
idea what I'm doing.

how about you make 4 movie clips named image1 image2 image 3 image 4 and
on their first frame you put stop();
in the main timeline you add listeners and functions to these movie clips
Image1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, Image1Function);
function Image1Function(event:MouseEvent) :void
{
Image1.gotoAndPlay(2);
}
this will make the animation play in the Image1 movie clip after you click on the image

I think I understand the idea here but I'm not quite sure if it would work. To expand on my
example I'd like it to be like a character select screen in the first frame or 2, you'd pick 2
characters and the rest of the frames would have those 2 specific images used in the video. I'm
not sure how to search for what I need to do, I keep coming up with tutorials on how variables
work but none quite address what I'm trying to do

yeah you're gonna need to implement some switches for the character selection and limit it to
choose from only 2 and then add condition ("if") for each character
god helps you if you want to combine them
