Why isn't ma function called?

Hello everybody, got a new annoying problem to tackle, i’ve been working on a ( quite simple ) piece of code the last couple of days, but i’ve encountered this really frustrating issue: one of the functions isn’t called.

this is the bit which has issues:


evolution();
function evolution() {
    //
    _root.onEnterFrame = function() {
...
           if (time%ed_CRMU == 0){
            //
            message_txt.text = "CRMU needed!";
            //
            var build_CRMU = _root.createEmptyMovieClip("build_CRMU", 11); 
         **   build_CRMU.onEnterFrame = function() {
                    build_CRMU();
                };**
            }
    };
}

and, of course, below, i have the build_CRMU function. the thing is that it won’t call it ( tried with trace(“OK”) inside the build_CRMU function, but trace(“OK”) in the onEnterFrame function works.

this is really mindboggling for me. i cannot realise what am i doing wrong. i went ahead and attached the full .fla source as well. thanks for any advices!

_root.build_CRMU();

Now wasn’t that an easy fix!
