I have my guy who shoots at blocks. I want it so that when the bullets hit the blocks, the bullet dissapears and the block dissapears. right now, im using .\_alpha because i couldnt get the removemovieclip() to work.

here is my code on the block:

onClipEvent(enterFrame){  
if(this.hitTest(\_root.bullet)){  
\_root.b1.\_alpha = 0;  
\_root.score += 1;  
}  
}

so since im using alpha, i can keep shooting the block and get points, which is a bad thing 😛
