I’ve a movie clip (mcChar) that moves around the stage with the arrow keys. I want to have another movie clip (mcOverlay) move with it at all times without adding the code from mcChar.

Is there any way to have mcOverlay’s x and y values be the same as mcChar’s at all times? If so, how should I go about doing this?
