Masive Progress Update!
Suffice to say I'm feeling rather chuffed with myself. After looking at how far my tutor group had come with their projects, I decided to sit down and get on with mine, with a little help from a flash developer friend who pointed me in the right direction, gave me some general flash advice and helped out with my syntax issues. But Enough of that go and play the bugger!

Ive made loads off updates since the last one, so I thought I'd run though a quick list of whats new:
- Now uses mouse movement rather than webcam (for development purposes only)
- Fog objects appear one at a time
- They appear out of the factory
- They change size as they come out
- They have random movement
- Percentage counter now counts them properly
- Colour changes between 1 and 10 on the percentage counter (in the final version this will be between 1 - 100)
- Animals have some shadows on them
- that backwards cow now comes in from the right side
Code wise there has been a lot of tidying up, with me moving all my code into functions and calling them in the appropriate places etc. This makes it a lot easier to navigate and find things, though I'm still working on tidying bits up.
I think I've reached my target of getting all my Must Haves for the project complete. I'm going to start working on adding new features after my tutorial on Friday, and I really need to get on writing the report for it as well. Its only 4000 words, but its still work that needs to be done!
