How do I move items when they are shot or collided with?

Hello I'm sorry if this is a noobish post. I've worked with this issue for about a day and would like some insight from the community. For the game project that I'm working on I want to be able to (shoot) or move objects when they are collided with through script.
When I say collided with I mean through when they collide with the player or a projectile. I did find some usueful code on how to make items aware of these collisions. But another question, What methods/functions do I use to call a move function?
obj.moveme() doesn't seem to work for me? What is the syntax/case for moving things in Torque? I really appreciate any insight you all can provide.

Keep in mind that the rigidshape class is already part of Torque, TGE and TGEa, so you only need the datablocks and script collision methods not the whole resource.
