AS2 Add more movieclips to var

This question may be weird, but it's a big problem for me.

onClipEvent (load) {
var ground:MovieClip = _root.bottomground1;
var grav:Number = 0;
var gravity:Number = 2;
var speed:Number = 10;
var maxJump:Number = -17;
var touchingGround:Boolean = false;
}


So, the thing i want to do is to add more movieclips to var ground, such as

var ground:MovieClip = _root.bottomground1,_root.bottomground2...;


I tried this also:

var ground:MovieClip = _root.bottomground1, MovieClip = _root.bottomground2...;


None of it is working. Any reply would be very helpful.

A variable can only have one value :) What you need is an array. Might not be a valid AS2, it's been a while:

Create an array:

var groundArray:Array = new Array(_root.bottomground1, _root.bottomground2);


OR something like

// add objects with instance names bottomground1 to bottomground9
var groundArray:Array = new Array();
for(var i:int = 1; i < 10; i++)
{
groundArray.push(_root[(bottomground + i)]);
}


Read from your array:

var myGroundMC:MovieClip = groundArray[0] as MovieClip; // first object in array


OR

// Loop trough all objects and do something
for(var i:int = 0; i < groundArray.length; i++)
{
var myGroundMC:MovieClip = groundArray[i] as MovieClip;

// do something with it
}
