Good day, kind sir’s. I have a quick question…

Why doesn’t this work:

i have a class that extends movieclip, then in it i put a “move” function that runs when an instance of the class is added (event.ADDED).

Then, i created that class in the main time line, created a keyframe, made a motion tween and stuff, then copied those frames as action script.

In the “move” function, i pasted the above motion code.

However… when i run it, it doesn’t move =(

i placed trace functions before and after the pasted coded and both of them were working properly… what step am i missing?

i already imported:  
import flash.display._;  
import flash.events._;  
import fl.motion.Animator;  
import fl.motion.\*;  
into the class btw…

thanks for your time =)
