[AS2] how to get a character to spawn at a certain spot on a frame

[tjj2011]

In AS2 for example I am developing a top down rpg type game like Pokemon etc, I am wondering how to get a character to spawn at a certain spot on a frame, for example when he/she enters a house or exits a map and is taken to another frame via hit test how is it possible to set its spawn point?

Thanks in advance

if you attaching just set the _x and the _y

var character_mc:MovieClip=this.attachMovie("character","character",this.getNextHighestDepth())
character_mc._x=exactSpot
character_mc._y=exactSpot

if placed on the stage manually just set the _x and _y

character_mc._x=exactSpot
character_mc._y=exactSpot
