I’m using the following code to have an MC follow the users mouse based on it’s x value. But I’d like to have this inverted…so that if the users mouse goes right, the MC goes left…instead of going right along with the mouse. You know? How could I do this? I feel it is just one tweek away.

```auto

 
 
import mx.utils.Delegate;
class Mover {
 
 private var target:MovieClip;
 private var limits:MovieClip;
 private var ease:Number;
 
 private var leftX:Number;
 private var rightX:Number;
 private var topY:Number;
 private var bottomY:Number;
 
 
 /*
  * Constructor
  *
  * @param target defines the movieclip to move
  * @param limits movieclip used at the limits or bounds for target's movements
  *
  * @param ease Number that provides the easing on the movieclip. Higher num = ease.
  */
 public function Mover(target:MovieClip, limits:MovieClip, ease:Number)
 {
  this.target = target;
  this.limits = limits;
  this.ease = (ease != undefined) ? ease : 22;
  
  leftX = limits._x;
  rightX = limits._x + limits._width;
  
 }
 
 
 /*
  * Method that starts the animation
  */
 public function start():Void
 {
  target.onEnterFrame = Delegate.create(this, onEnterFrame);
  function onEnterFrame():Void
  {
   var x:Number = Math.min(Math.max(_xmouse, leftX), rightX);
   var y:Number = Math.min(Math.max(_ymouse, topY), bottomY);
   
   target._x += (x - target._x) / ease;
   target._y += (y - target._y) / ease;
  }
 }
 
}
 

```
