small problem;
I am revamping the classic Pacman game in Flash MX. I am using new artwork for the Pacman character, and my problem with the sourcecode is that it states when Pacman goes right, he simply flips 180 degrees. Since he is just a circle with a wedge for a mouth you can’t tell that he is upside down. My new art for Pacman
is a profile of an alien and it looks dumb when you go right because he is upside down. I have attached my AS code below; is there a command that can give me a mirror image of my character when he goes right instead of just a cheesy rotation? (see the first ‘else if’ command)
Any help is greatly + deeply appreciated

[AS]// setPacMove - works out and sets Pacman’s next move
function setPacMove(d) {
with (_root) {
if (d == 0) { nextX = pacX; nextY = pacY - 1; Pacman._rotation = 90; }
else if (d == 1) { nextX = pacX + 1; nextY = pacY; Pacman._rotation = 180; }
else if (d == 2) { nextX = pacX; nextY = pacY + 1; Pacman._rotation = -90; }
else if (d == 3) { nextX = pacX - 1; nextY = pacY; Pacman._rotation = 0; }
}
}
