Editting code from movieclip to actions layer

programming flash

Hey chaps i’m currently having a small problem with some Actionscript 2.0 in CS3.

I’m following a tutorial to make a simple maze like game
Tutorial here: http://www.webwasp.co.uk/tutorials/b32-collision-detection/01.php

I’m currently at step 5 where it’s coding the movement and wall detection… The problem is the tutorial wants me to apply the code directly to the maze/wall movieclip. However as this is for a college project my lecturer will not accept actionscript directly applied to buttons or movieclips… He basically wants all the script on a seperate actionscript layer. So basically what i’m asking is how and what part of the code do i need to change so it’ll still work even though it’s on a different layer!

Thanks!

This is the code here

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
with (_root.player) {

// Controls Player Speed
mySpeed = 3;

// Controls how far the Player bounces off the wall after impact
myBounce = 3;

// keyboard controls
if (Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)) {
_y += mySpeed;
}
if (Key.isDown(Key.UP)) {
_y -= mySpeed;
}
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
_x -= mySpeed;
}
if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
_x += mySpeed;
}

// detect if edges of the player is colliding with the Maze Walls
if (walls.hitTest(getBounds(_root).xMax, _y, true)) {
_x -= myBounce;
}
if (walls.hitTest(getBounds(_root).xMin, _y, true)) {
_x += myBounce;
}
if (walls.hitTest(_x, getBounds(_root).yMax, true)) {
_y -= myBounce;
}
if (walls.hitTest(_x, getBounds(_root).yMin, true)) {
_y += myBounce;
}

// detect if Maze is finished
if (_root.end.hitTest(_x, getBounds(_root).yMax, true)) {
_root.gotoAndStop(3);
}
}
}
