[RESOLVED] Rising rain

[thesween]

Hello, can anyone help me modify the following code (the code to make it rain), so instead of the movieclip duplicating and falling, it duplicates and rises...

This code is in the movieclip:

onClipEvent (load) {
//put the size of the movie stage here
movieWidth = 550;
movieHeight = 300;

//variables that will modify the falling snow
//this is for the speed of the falling rain
i = 20+Math.random()*100;
k = -Math.PI+Math.random()*Math.PI;

//giving each snowflake unique characteristics
this._xscale = this._yscale=50+Math.random()*100;
this._alpha = 75+Math.random()*100;
this._x = -10+Math.random()*movieWidth;
this._y = -10+Math.random()*movieHeight;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
//putting it all together
rad += (k/180)*Math.PI;
this._x -= Math.cos(rad);
this._y += i;
if (this._y>=movieHeight) {
this._y = -5;
}
if ((this._x>=movieWidth) || (this._x<=0)) {
this._x = -10+Math.random()*movieWidth;
this._y = -5;
}
}

This code is in the frame:

for (k=0; k<25; k++) {
duplicateMovieClip(_root.rain, "rain"+k, k);
}

Also, I can see this wont work if you import the .swf into anther movie, does anyone know why?

Thanks in advance..
