Hello all,

I have a problem, as a newcomer to AS3. I'm looking to be able to pick up one of 36 movieclips on the stage, and drag it to a hotspot. If it lands on the hotspot, then it does something, otherwise it just gets dropped.

How do I dynamically change the "target_mc" to be whichever movieclip I select?

This code works fine, but that's because eventlistener is set-up explicitly for a given mc.

Code:
// sprites
import caurina.transitions.*;

var drag_mc:MovieClip = energy_sprites.play_wave;
var target_mc:MovieClip = energy_sprites.hotspot_sea;

drag_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,beginDrag);

function beginDrag(e:MouseEvent):void {

	stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE,moveMC);
	stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,endDrag);
}


function endDrag(e:MouseEvent):void {
	stage.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE,moveMC);
	
	if (drag_mc.hitTestObject(target_mc)) {
		Tweener.addTween(drag_mc,{x:mouseX,
		  y:mouseY,
		  time:1,
		  transition:"easeIn"});
		trace("HIT ME");

	} else {
		Tweener.addTween(drag_mc,{x:mouseX,
		  y:mouseY,
		  time:1,
		  transition:"easeIn"});
	}
	stage.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,endDrag);
}

function moveMC(e:MouseEvent):void {

	Tweener.addTween(drag_mc,{x:mouseX,y:mouseY,time:0.5,transition:"easeIn"});
	e.updateAfterEvent();
}

Thanks a million for any thoughts on this.
