Yes I see, I have realised now that you cannot target a Scene from an MC. I have found three ways around it now. There is the one I described in an earlier mail where I put in a goto next frame of the main timeline and this frame targeted the next scene or you just do not put a stop in it and it just plays and then runs right into the next frame. Then there is this method you have come up with. also found that if you take all the frames in the first scene, say there are 5 and you want to goto the first frame of the next scene, that frame is identified as Scene 2 frame 1 but it can also be addressed as frame 6. Frames of scene 1 plus the target frame of scene 2. So this also works
if (variable >= 24) { gotoAndPlay ("Scene 1", 6); }
