Hi guys -

I have this script in Frame 1 of a scene. On another layer, I have a button that goes to the next scene on click. For some reason, the MCs that this script creates are still there on the next scene. What and where do I have to do to get rid of this on the next scene??

function drawCircle(taille,col,pro){  
var mc=this.createEmptyMovieClip(“b”+pro,pro);  
mc.lineStyle(taille,col,100);  
mc.lineTo(.15,.45);  
return mc;}  
function drawThing(){  
cl1=drawCircle(a=30+random(50),0xffffff,(++prof)+10000);  
cl2=drawCircle(a+20,0,prof);  
cl1.\_x=cl2.\_x=random (550);  
cl1.\_y=cl2.\_y=random (400);  
cl1.onEnterFrame=cl2.onEnterFrame=function(){  
if (120 - this.\_xscale \> 1) this.\_xscale = this.\_yscale += (120 - this.\_xscale)/7;  
else this.onEnterFrame = function(){  
this.\_alpha -= 2;  
if (this.\_alpha \< 5) this.removeMovieClip();}}}  
setInterval(drawThing,30);  
stop();

I don’t know if this will help, but something simular happened to me once. I had a duplicateMovieClip script on the main timeline that carried through to other scenes. I had to move that script to an emptyMovieClip that would not be in scene two. That’s solved my prob.
