AS moving object based on preloader percent

I am trying to move an object across the stage while my preloader is going. (i want two fists to meet when the preloader hits 100%). i am not very good with AS but i have tried things such as this.fist1_mc._x = percent + 100; but i am just taking shots in the dark at this point. i can post the file if need be.

off the top of my head


this.fist1_mc._x = percent * STAGE_WIDTH / 2;
this.fist2_mc._x = (1 - percent) * STAGE_WIDTH / 2 - STAGE_WIDTH / 2;

i gave it a whirl, but i am not sure if i put them in the right spot. i uploaded a sample of what i tried. let me know what i need to change. thanks
