Ok so basically I got mobs spawning at intervals, using attachMovie(), name them mob1,mob2,mob3,etc. They run upward onEnterFrame towards some police dudes also spawned using attachMovie(), named police1,police2,etc. Now when the mob hits the police, the mob should be removed from the stage.

But I've progressed to the point now where I have most basic things in the engine down, but theres a few things Im still planning to implement. One of which is jumping and multiple platforms.
