ActionScript 2.0 :: HitTest Detect Random Duplicated Instance?

Sep 25, 2005

I've got this code on my frame:

if (_root.count <= 20) {
duplicateMovieClip("_root.clip", "clip"+_root.count, _root.count);
_root["clip"+_root.count]._x = random(500)+50;
_root["clip"+_root.count]._y = random(1)+20;
}

And I need to figure out how to have the hitTest see the randomly generated instances of this duplicated mc.

I can get the hitTest to see the first instance (called "clip"), but then it doesn't see all the rest.

Here's the code I have on the hitTestMC:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (_root.chime1, hitTest(_root.clip)) {
_root.chime1.gotoAndPlay("play1");
}
}

ActionScript 2.0 :: Hittest On A Duplicated Movie (flashmx2k4)?

Feb 29, 2004

When you duplicate a movieclip or generate one through AS hittest will allways return true. I tried to make a selection script,by putting the code below into the frame. It makes a rectangle to select charclip movieclips (duplicated and numbered, therefor the for loop) to select them, like when you select icons on a desktop. Unfortunately, it will select all charclips wether theyre inside the rectangle or not. I tried to confirm this behaviour by making a simple hittest script like the one discribed on the kirupa actionscript tutorial, with a moviecript and a duplicated one. The moviescript was detected when it actually hit it, the duplicated one was detected all the time. How do I circumvent this? Should I ducplicate in an existing movieclip or something?

_root.createEmptyMovieClip("sfield",10000000);
_root.onMouseDown = function(){
x=_xmouse;
y=_ymouse;

ActionScript 3.0 :: Detect A HitTest With The Cursor?

Feb 1, 2008

The current problem is trying to detect a hitTest with the cursor. I use this code very successfully in AS2, when I cannot use an rollover for whatever reason.

This is my AS2 code:

PHP Code:

onEnterFrame = function(){   if(my_mc.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse))   {      race("the mouse is positioned over my_mc")    }} 

This is me trying unsuccessfully to convert it to AS3:

PHP Code:

stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, intro); function intro(e:Event):void{     my_mc.hitTest(mouseX, mouseY)     {        trace("the mouse is positioned over my_mc")     }}

ActionScript 3.0 :: Faulty HitTest - Detect A Hit On The Image When It Doesnt Hit It?

Dec 20, 2010

I am have a enemy with a sword on 1 image and a player character on another.I test to see if the tip of the enemy sword (point) appears in the player image.
It seems to always detect a hit on the image when it doesnt hit it. The player image has a lot of transparent pixels and it looks like it detects a bounding box hit.Not sure what to do here as this test looks faulty. The y values are correct but the x values seem to cause th issue where xVal is the currect image x value.
 
x=enemy.xVal+el.x ;y=posY(enemy.yVal-el.y) ;
 
if (myplayer.img.hitTestPoint(x,y,false)==true)

ActionScript 2.0 :: Generic HitTest - Detect Collision With One Object

Oct 13, 2005

Right now I'm working on an advanced hitTesting engine, and What I'm trying to do here is create an engine that will detect collision with one object instead of two. That basically means that if any other objects touch this movie clip, the hitTest will return True. Right now the .fla containing the engine has nothing but a circle that can be moved using arrow keys and 8 squares that disappear when touched by the circle. Obviously, I could do something like:

if (circle.hitTest(square1)) {
do so and so
} else if (circle.hitTest(square2)) {
do this and that
} etc...

But that would be too long, since the engine has to be able to contain 100 squares without too much change in the code.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Use HitTest To Detect If A Dragged Clip Is Over Any One Of 3 Different Targets?

Jun 20, 2007

I'm trying to use hitTest to detect if a dragged clip is over any one of 3 different targets - when it is I want that target to blink. And then when I drag off I'd like the blinking to stop. Make sense? I'm struggling a bit with the following code:

Code:
square_mc.onPress = function() {
this.startDrag();
for (z=1; z<4; z++) {
circle = _root["circle"+z+"_mc"];

[code]....

The "eval(circle)" part isn't really working.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Different Movieclips Same Instance Name - HitTest

Jan 3, 2011

I'm creating a platform game, and I have those boxes which needs hitTests on all sides - including the bottom.I want my hit areas to have the same instance names. With that I mean, that I want only one instance name for all the bottom hits, one instance name for alle right hits - and so on. If it's possible. 'Cause else there will be so much actionScript code to write.I've been trying to simply make a normal hitTest on for example hitGround, and then place two movieclips with the instance name hitGround, but the hitTest function only works on the last added movieclip with that instance name.I have also been trying to look up some for each in-arrays, but I don't really get the meaning of how to use them.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Accessing An Instance Of Parent Movieclip For HitTest?

I have a stage with instances of bauble_mcs on it that are attached by the document class of the main timeline (can someone tell me what the right term is here? I don't know what I call the main time line in AS3).I then have instances of snow_mc attached by the same class. Inside the snow_mc I want to test to see if it is hitting any bauble_mcs but I don't know how!

inside snow_mc I am trying:

PHP Code:

if(this.hitTestObject(this.parent.bauble_mc)){
}

to which flash says:

1119: Access of possibly undefined property bauble_mc through a reference with static type flash.displayisplayObjectContainer.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Objects - XML - Creating A New Instance Of An Object That Uses An Identical Name To An Older Instance Delete The Previous Instance?

Mar 20, 2009

Does creating a new instance of an Object that uses an identical name to an older instance, delete the previous instance? Or should the original instance be deleted first? The code uses a ridiculous amount of XML vars. Isn't it less memory intensive to parse the XML and save the properties to an Object, and then delete the XML Object, rather than keep the XML Object around and reference it's child nodes directly? Is it better form to break up a huge XML file (>600lines/3200vars) into smaller chunks?

ActionScript 2.0 :: Create An "hitTest" Script Inside A Movieclip That Is Actually Part Of That HitTest Code?

Jan 15, 2009

i just would like to know how to create an "hitTest" script inside a movieclip that is actually part of that hitTest code?I mean... I have mc A, and mc B. and the current hitTest code im using (that is on the timeline) makes mc A, destroy mc B when collide with it... but there are many mc B on the stage (with the same instance name) so, when mc A collide with one mc B, it destroys ALL mc's B... but i want it to destroy only the mc B that he collides, not all the others... maybe an hitTest script inside a movieclip B would work (somethig like "if MC A hitTest ME = i die" (not all the others)).
