I have the following code placed on a “crystal1” but I cannot get the “crystal” removed from the stage. Can anyone tell me why it is not working. :jail:

onClipEvent (load) {  
if (this.hitTest(\_root.mog)) {  
crystal1.removeMovieClip();  
}  
}  
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {  
if (this.hitTest(\_root.mog)) {  
\_root.total = \_root.total + 1;  
}  
}

///as you can probably tell i am trying to create a game where player"mog" collects coin"crystal" and removes coin from stage and adds one to players score
