Package Cannot Be Nested 1037 & Syntax Error 1084

[inbound spot thoughts]

Trying to learn how to crerate a Box2D game in WIndows 8 Flash Pro CC.   Opened new document in ActionScript 3.0 Class or ".as" as a Flash Pro application.  Very very new to all developer languages and processes.  Please help.

package {
    import flash.display.Sprite
    import Box2D.Dynamics.*;
    import Box2D.Collision.*;
    import Box2D.Collision.Shapes.*;
    import Box2D.Common.Math.*;
    public class Main extends Sprite{
        public function Main(){
            trace(*my awsome game starts here *);
        }
    }
}

if that's saved as Main.as in the fla's default directory., there's no problem with the code you showed.

[kglad]

the default directory is usually in the same directory where the main fla is saved but that can be changed in advanced actionscript settings panel (file>publish settings>actionscript settings - wrench icon).

p.s. you should copy and paste your actualy code.  if that is your actual code, that trace is incorrect and should contain a string.  ie, change the asterisks to quotes.

Sir,

How do I save that code as main.as in the flas default directory if it is already saved as "main.as". WHat do I do after I click on the wrench?

V/R,

start by copying and pasting the code in Main.as and make sure that's Main.as, not main.as
