function initializeGame():void {
cursor = new Cursor;

// name
addChild(cursor);
//this will place a cursor on stage
cursor.enabled = false;
// this will neutralize the cursor
Mouse.hide();
//This will hide our own mouse (cursor)
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, dragCursor);
// this functions fires when the mouse moves
// changes the cursor location
}
function dragCursor (event:MouseEvent):void{
cursor.x=this.mouseX;
cursor.y=this.mouseY;
// this will place the cursor on stage according
// to the mouse coordinates
}
initializeGame();
