I highly suggest you get FLASC http://www.osflash.org/flasc
1) Your code will be cleaner. MTASC forces you to write clean code in order to compile. It is more strict than the Flash IDE compiler.
2) MTASC helps identify bugs before they happen. For instance, I had an issue I couldn't figure out for some reason. The issue ended up being that I had renamed a class but had not renamed its constructor. For some stupid reason, the Flash IDE compiler doesn't throw an error when you put super(); in a different function than the constructor, but MTASC does (one more reason to put super() in your constructor, and one more reason to always use MTASC to compile your Flash movies).
If your code compiles just fine in MTASC, then you've got an issue. Until then, you haven't exhausted all your debugging options. :)
