Marcelo, I have a MVC framework for the application, but I am not sure how to add a listener if I can't resolve the scope. I need to find a good tutorial about combining stuff from the IDE with stuff written entirely in mtasc. I have been writing pure actionscript, but I am just getting started with the IDE. Do you know of anything like that?
