Hi all!  
I have to movieclips which rotates after a value which is feeded in using xml.  
Is there a way to make my.movieClip.gotoAndStop(2); based on the rotation of another movieclip?  
Something like this:

if ([COLOR=Magenta]rotation of MC1[/COLOR] \>= [COLOR=Magenta]rotation of MC2[/COLOR]){  
my.movieClip.gotoAndStop(2);  
} else {  
my.movieClip.gotoAndStop(3);  
}

Now, I don’t know how to code this correctly, therefore I’ve highlighted my problem in pink.  
Anyone?
