K For my racing game I have movieclips inside other movie clips and I was wondering How u like aknowledge it… Like example…

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {  
if(\_root.car.hitTest(\_root.hotspot6)){  
\_root.road.easeXY(307, 315)  
} else {  
play();  
}  
}

That is the hittest for 2 moviecips onscreen…not in any other MC… how do I do it when ones in the MC and another on the main screen.  
Example… lets pretend that hotspot6 is in a moviecip “trigger”. Do i edit my command like this…

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {  
if(\_root.car.hitTest(\_root.hotspot6.trigger)){  
\_root.road.easeXY(307, 315)  
} else {  
play();  
}  
}

K i know i havnt done the best job explaining wat i need but if u understand plz… answer\<!-- / message --\>
