All works fine until I also try to move that mc horizontally using actionscript and the ._x property, the timeline motion tween stops working, the mc moves horizontally but not vertically. Is this just Flash's normal behavior, that moving an object using actionscript means that the timeline will be ignored? Are there any work arounds?
Yes, it is. It stops updating the object with timeline's properties if you change them dynamically.
There's one workaround: create another inner movieclip and change the _x of that inner movieclip. That way, changes to the timeline and the dynamic property will "stack" to each other.
I'd recommend stop using the timeline and always use code animation though. It's much bettter in almost all cases, the only exception being guided animation.
