It sounds like a scope issue. In cases like this, I just take the easiest route, and declare my Tween variable(s) at an upper level scope, outside of any functions/methods, and sometimes on _global (when not in an AS 2.0 class). That way, I always know exactly where to find it/them when it comes time to reset it/them. Since #Walker is a property of your function (local scope), it's difficult to assign a null value. Where/what is the proper reference/handle for #Walker when the function exits? It would otherwise be garbage collected, except that it remains active somehow and persists in memory. I scratched my head over this too. It's a bit of a black box IMO. I skip the wondering by simply making the Tween reference explicit (as described above). - pixelTwiddler, a.k.a.
