The previous replies seem to require you to either modify the movie you're
navigating to (getPref, read cast member) and/or that the 2 files share a
castLib.
Your idea of a timeout seems sound, though I haven't tried it. It needs to
be persistent (or it disappears on stopMovie of the first file) and you
need to determine when it's "safe" to reload your global space.
Fortunately, timeouts' target objects are relayed #prepareMovie,
#startMovie, #stopMovie, #prepareFrame and #exitFrame messages events so by
responding appropriately to these events in your next file you can reload
when required.
