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

```auto

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

```
