I want to the badguy plane to hit the player's plane and take a subtraction from the player's heath. I've fiddled around with using "this" instead of the full path of the playerMC - no success. My hitTest is working fine for the bullets!
I've found the BitmapData.hitTest() function very handy, but limited for my purposes. I need to figure out at exactly which point the two images collide (in any coords system,really), since their behaviour will change depending on the angle of the surface hit
I'm trying to create an animated 'LED style' display. I want to draw/tween/type shapes or text and have the 'LED dots' detect the animation and turn on the relevant dots.'ve been testing the hittests but it slows down pretty quickly and the problem with the hitTestObject is that it obviously just detects the bounding box, NOT the vectors.
I'm try to make the Collision Detected with hitTest for long time but it doesn't work. I have two objecct one is the Spaceship and rock. When those two hit each other. I want it to show text "Collision DetectedFrame1 script
var rockCount = 0; var rockTimeGap = 1; var nextRockTime = 0;
I have two png files, a circle and a maze. Basically the maze is a square with some paths carved through it. I want to draw these images, move the circle to the mouse coordinates, and have a text say 'hit' when the circle intersects a wall of the maze and 'miss' when it doesn't. Now I want to do these using the bitmapdata.hittest method. The circle is a 32x32 image and the maze is a 256*256 image. I've gotten everything set up and everything draws on the screen correctly but I can't get the actual collision detection part of it to work, that is it always displays 'miss' rather than 'hit' even when the circle clearly intersects the maze.[code]

For some reason my hitTest in the following function is not working. With each onEnterFrame of the mc being "fired", I am checking to see if it is touching one of the "clouds" I have floating by. My traces tell me that I am targeting everything correctly, but for some reason, hitTest never returns true. Even when I see the mcs colliding. The "clouds" are dynamically attached and pushed into an array (cloudsArr) The clouds and the "fire" mcs are on differnent timelines, but should that matter if I am targeting them correctly?
Does anyone know how to use hitTest with two movieclips so that it would detectthe collision of the visible part of the MC, not the **** bounding box???
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.
I'm actually working on a multiple collision detection in actionscript 3.0, using pixel collision for a game for my assignment, where an enemy patrols around and searching for the hero. So, i draw a line between the enemy and the hero, to check whether there's some collision happened between those two. if the line colllides with an obstacle such as wall, door, etc. enemy will not be able to see the hero. When i tried a single line collision with a wall (one object only) it works perfectly.
But here's the problem. For the multiple objects collision (several walls and doors included), i added those objects in an arraylist, When i used for loop to check the collision between the line and those objects in the arraylist, none seems to react , except the first object in the arraylist or index 0.
Is there any simpler way to do the multiple collision detection?
Important: ActionScript 2.0Flash CS3I have some knowledge in Java and C++ which makes this easier... Im trying to make a game and the collision *** does not stop the character in its spot... if i set _y to 0 then it would go to the top of the screen... if i set _y to -1 each frame that the hitTest is active then the character goes through the platform and the rises by -1 (1 up) _y .... how can i make it so the character is stopped immediatly when touching (hitTest) the platform?
how to use the bitmapData collision method. Now I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to see at what angle or coordinate of the bitmapData the collision happens? I need it in order to figure the accurate bounce angle after the collision occurs.
I am trying to get some collision detection working. What I have is a ball moving around the stage. There is a box in the middle which when the ball hits, I would like it to bounce off the box. I can get the x axis working fine using hitTestObject but when I detect for collisions on the y axis, the two axis conflict. Does anyone have a way of doing this properly?[code]
I am trying to do an example of collision in Action Script 3. It's a character that should stop when it hits a platform. It works well when I move only to the right, left, up or down directions, but if I try to move in the diagonals, if the characteris colliding with the platform, the object goes to a different area of the screen.
var level:Array = new Array(); for (var i = 0; i < numChildren; i++) { if (getChildAt(i) is Platform) { level.push(getChildAt(i).getBounds(this));
I'm making a game and ran into a problem I've been unable to figure out. The player is a boat, the boat can drop mines (via space key). I've created a Mine() Array in the init():
i'm trying to build this simple game for school: you've got a catapult which launches a "bullet" and you will have to aim it to hit a certain point. Now the whole catapult part and shooting the "bullet" works, but now it has to respond when it hits something, and that's where i'm stuck.

I've included:
if (stok.kogel.hitTestObject(this.muur)) { trace("ball hit") }
but I just can't seem to get an trace back.(PS: here's the file as refference (all AS is in the catapult))
I have tried hitTest many times.The function works perfect if I run it from an example, but not if I do it myself.I attached the FLA.Also, in this demonstration I tried using the if with the ,s. I have tried with _root.mc.hitTest style.
ball2 is duplicated every 3 seconds and the gravity code is on the ball2 mc. this code is on frame one of the main timeline.Why when two of the ball2 mc's are on the stage does the hit test not work on one of them?
Code: checkX = function (dx, oldVal, newVal) { if (_root.paddle.hitTest(_root["ball2"+i])) {
I can't seem to get the hitTest to work for my script shown below. I have tested using movieclips created on stage during design time and made to collide during run-time. hitTest works fine in this situation.
But if I use the attachmovie command and create a movie on stage during run-time, that clip cannot hitTest with other movieclips. The hitTest simply doesn't work.
The script below is basically, to create instances of enemymc, and it will fall vertically, hitting a movieclip target_mc which is placed during design-time.
var enemyTime:Number = 0; var enemyLimit:Number = 20; onEnterFrame = function() {
how can I make the collision detection working in my game?I find it really difficult because I have no idea where to start...What I want to do is, when the spaceship hit the asteroid, the game will over (jump to the "end" scene)
1 main flash movie called game.swf 1 external flash movie called maze.swf
The thing is from my main movie game.swf I load the external "maze.swf" true the LoadClip procedure. This works "fine".
The maze.swf as you can guess contains a maze game, and as you all will know this works with the Hittest commando to check if the character doesn't walk up against the wall.
If I start the maze.swf as a stand-a-lone this works fine, but as soon as I load maze.swf in my main movie. The hittest doesn't work anymore, because in some way the hittest is now checking with the coordinates of the entire main movie instead of only the boundaries of the maze.
I checked If I was calling to the right path, with _root and _level0 and etc. This is al correct because I can trace all the properties from maze.swf in my main movie. But the hittest simply won't work.
I have had this problem for a long time and have not been able to fix it. I am using ActionScript 1, although if you can help me using AS2 I should be able to change it. I have a static movie clip with no code referring to it called "ship". Its center point is 275, 324.9. I have a series of planets coming down from the top of the screen and I need to check whether you "died" or not. The planets movie clips are contained inside blank movie clips that are there so thre registration point does not change. I was using the code
Ive got this piece of script where i place objects on the stage, to hittest eachother.Ive got two seperate addchilds: one child must hittest another child.[code]only one instance of the hitte_mc will hittest with the instances of Ring.
I'm trying to set up a very simple drag and drop game where users drag movie clips onto other matching movie clips.If the answer is correct, the mc stays in place; otherwise, it snaps back to original position. So far, only the dragging part works -- the movie clip won't stay in place when dragged to the correct position.I'm using Flash CS3 and Actionscript 2.The Flash movie can be found here: http:[url]..As it's set up now, the mc with the buffalo symbol is draggable,and the correct drop zone is the fish with thetext.Here's the script I'm using:
// Get the movie clip's location and // store the coordinates as variables onClipEvent (load) {[code].....
Go to [URL]. My hitTest function only works on the y-axis. This is the code.... onClipEvent (enterFrame) { // _root.speed = speed; if (Key.isDown(Key.UP)) { speed += 3; } if (Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)) {
