Hi,

Could you tell me the limitation in AS3 ? For example, how many "Sprite" can i use in an another "Sprite" ? Where can i find all limitations in the langage AS3 ?

i don't think the limit is the number of sprites. it's going to be the time
require to create them that will cause a (timeout) problem. and if they are
display objects the cpu used to display them will cause problems (system hang).

I think the answer is probably somewhere around 16 million? At some
point you'll hit the 32bit limits inside the player (and OS). Also, I
think Flash only has -16 million to +16 million addressable "layers", so
at some point (if you don't run out of memory) you'll start overwriting
existing layers. Suspect Flash would crash long before that. Basically
we're talking huge numbers anyway.
