Hey, I’m using an external .as file that is included in a .fla file. It is programmed so that every time the mouse button is clicked, the instance on the stage creates a child of another class. This all works perfectly. Now how to I make it so that the new child from the class moves towards where the mouse was when the mouse key was pressed? Thanks in advance.
