Im making a fighting game and i’m having trouble making player 1 or player 2’s score go up when he hits the other player. I’ve got 2 players and on player 1 i have this code to make the score go up  
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {  
if (Key.isDown(83))  
{  
this.gotoAndStop(5);  
if(\_root.B1main.b1kick, hitTest(\_root.B2main))  
{  
b1mainScore += 2;  
if(b1mainScore \>= winningScore)  
{  
\_root.gotoAndStop(3);  
}  
}  
}  
}  
and then on my control layer i have this code  
stop();  
b1mainScore = 0;  
b2mainScore = 0;  
winningScore = 100;  
and i have 2 dynamic text boxes 1 with the variable of b1mainScore and the other with b2mainScore. can anyone help me fix the problem so that the score goes up.
