well I have this frame as a movieclip called field. And inside it, there’s another mc that is moved by the cursor keys called box. Now I have created another movie clip called boxclone. I want boxclone to make the same movement as the box in the field. I know it has something to do with localToGlobal but I don’t know how to setup the code correctly…
