I am using a function for a simple pacman game (im new to flash and i wanna try to make the game and refine it as i get better)…the function makes the onEnterFrame for the ghost null and when the dead\_ghost\_mc gets to the originating .\_x and .\_y it will make the onEnterFrame accesible again. My problem is once the onEnterFrame is made null i can never get it back.

this is my code so far:

//green eatable is assigned a 1 when pacman eats green\_ghost\_mc  
//green\_ghost\_dead\_mc is the movie clip that turns to eyes and finds  
//its way back to the starting coordinates.  
//once at the starting coordiantes the original ghost returns  
[color=#003366]green\_ghost\_dead\_mc.onEnterFrame = function()  
{  
if(green\_eatable == 1)  
{  
green\_ghost\_mc.onEnterFrame = null;  
if(green\_ghost\_dead\_mc.\_x \> 309)  
{  
green\_ghost\_dead.\_x–;  
}  
else  
{  
if(green\_ghost\_dead\_mc.\_x \< 308)  
{  
green\_ghost\_dead.\_x++;  
}  
else  
{  
green\_ghost\_dead\_mc.\_x = 308.7;  
}  
}  
if(green\_ghost\_dead\_mc.\_y \> 204)  
{  
green\_ghost\_dead\_mc.\_y–;  
}  
else  
{  
if(green\_ghost\_dead\_mc.\_y \< 203)  
{  
green\_ghost\_dead\_mc.\_y++;  
}  
else  
{  
green\_ghost\_dead\_mc.\_y = 203.15;  
green\_eatable = 0;  
green\_ghost\_mc.onEnterFrame; //how do i make this accesible?[/color][color=#003366]  
}  
}  
}[/color]
