My proximity class

class Proximity extends MovieClip {
public var proxRadius:Number;
public var clips:Array;
public function Proximity() {
}
public function scaleProximity(clips:Array, proxRadius:Number, fade:Boolean):Void {
for (var i:Number = 0; i < clips.length; i++) {
var scaleBuffer:Number = proxRadius+100;
var xMousePos:Number = _root._xmouse;
var yMousePos:Number = _root._ymouse;
var cx:Number = clips[i]._x;
var cy:Number = clips[i]._y;
var prox:Number = Math.round(Math.sqrt((xMousePos-cx)*(xMousePos-cx)+(yMousePos-cy)*(yMousePos-cy)));
if (prox < proxRadius) {
clips[i]._xscale = clips[i]._yscale = scaleBuffer - prox;
if (fade) […]
