on (press, keyPress "<Space>") {
    duplicateMovieClip (_root.man, "man"+ shotname, shotname);
    setProperty ("man" + name, _x, _root.man._x);
    setProperty ("man" + name, _y, _root.man._y);
    if (j>=1000) {
        j = 1;
    }
    name = name+1;
    if (name>=100) {
        name = 1;
    }
}

this will dupe a "man" movie and put it where the old one is. this is only works with moving items, or you wont be able to see the duped movie. this is a flash 4 script, bit when i converted it to 5 it didnt work so lets jst leave it
