i have a question though  
–They duplicate and stuff but i want it to stop duplicating if the previous clip is not moved from where it was duplicated

heres the code im using to duplicate the movieclips

on (release) {  
music = new Sound();  
music.attachSound(“click10”);  
music.start(0, 1);  
if (i\<900) {  
duplicateMovieClip("\_root.box3red", “box3red”+i, i);  
\_root[“box3red”+i].\_x = random(30)+50;  
\_root[“box3red”+i].\_y = random(60)+50;  
\_root[“box3red”+i].onRelease = function() {  
trace(this.\_name);  
delete this.onMouseMove;  
};
