Okay, this is what it looks like: On stage, there is a movie clip (a). In that movie clip, there are 2 frames with stops on each. Movie clip ( is on another layer inside movie clip (a) and it is the same for both frames. After clicking a button in movie clip ( I want the movie clip b to play itself and same with a few other movie clip in movie clip (a). This is the code:

on (release) {
	_root.a.b.gotoAndPlay(5);
	_root.a.c.gotoAndPlay(2);
	_root.a.d.gotoAndPlay(2);
}

The problem? After © plays, it goes back to frame 1 of (a), which resets the movie clip and the changes made in ©.

What do I want? I want so even if the movie clip goes back to frame 1 of (a), it will keep the frame it played within itself ©. This sounds really confusing and even me reading this is confusing sometimes but I think is the best I can do.

I avoided the problem using some other way to do the actions.

But, now, I have new problem yet again. I have 5 buttons. How do I make it so you cannot use one of the buttons two times in a roll?
