Duplicate movie clip issue...... help?

1

I have two mcs on the stage, one is called ‘circle’, one is called ‘circle2’. This duplicate movie clip is supposed to work on both of these mc’s, but it only seems to work on the last one…

As in, whatever code is at the bottom, it will work on, but the code that is on top gets ignored.

circle.duplicateMovieClip(“circle”+,);
circle2.duplicateMovieClip(“circle2”+,);

Why is this happening? I’m targeting different mc’s… it is an onEnterFrame function, but I’m not sure what is making this happen. So, looking at the above code, the circle2 mc would duplicate and work, if I reverse the order, the other will work.

Help!!!

var **** = 0;// an arbitrary name to count the unique instances of the circle movie clip
this.onEnterFrame = function() {// updates every frame

if (**** == true) {// if the mouse is down
    
    circleCount++;
    ****++;// increment a counter by 1


    circle.duplicateMovieClip("circle"+****,****);
    circle2.duplicateMovieClip("circle2"+****,****);



}
