Hello everyone,

I’m building a simple game where players scores 1 point each time his/her paddle makes contact with a ball falling vertically from a random X position. All works well - except for the scoring. Hits will score anywhere from 1 to 4 points; they should only be scoring 1.

I’ll attach the .fla. Help is GREATLY appreciated! :thumb2:
