I am building a tile based game, in which the player can digg away at all the tiles.The problem im having is that my collision detection code for the tiles only will detect a collision with the first tile placed, or any tile required i explicitly code its number in.
In all other examples, tutorials and code, this should work, and yet it does not on mine.heres the specific code , the array the cildren are stored in is called dirt, as they are dirt tiles.
ActionScript Code:
for (var m:int=dirt.length-1; m>=0; m--) {
forval.text=String(m);
if (dirt[m].hitTestObject(_player)) {
[code]....
this brings me onto another problem i am having, which is that now that the collision code is inside a for statement, the above code doesnt work correctly. normally the lastx and lasty should be recorded , and if there is a collsion, the player is shifted back to the last position there wasnt a collision.for some reason now, even though it should be looping faster and detecting the lasx and lasty even faster, it isnt, and although a collision is detected (only with child 0).
Assuming, for a rectangle that is controlled by the user using the arrow keys, that I do the following[code]...
Assuming that works in detecting the collision, what would I use to actually stop the rectangle from progressing through the wall?
The scenario: in Main, instances of class Bullet are spawned and added to the stage, and to the array bltarray, instances of class Enemy are spawned, added to the stage, and added to nmearray. This works fine.
The problem comes in seemingly sporadically, i.e. it works, then suddenly doesn't work soon after, when it doesn't work I get spammed with output errors and the score display is constantly rising, note it's the same instance of bullet and enemy. [code]...
I want to create movement in a movieclip when an arrow key is pressed. I want the movieclip to start moving and not stop until a hitTest recognizes a collision with another object and then tells it to stop. I want the key to only have to be pressed once to start movement and not have to stayed pressed down. How would I do this?
View 2 RepliesIf I removeChild an object from the stage can it still be detected by a hittest? I have objects that are tweening off the stage and if they hit other objects they stop their tween i use removeChild to remove objects that I don't want a hittest to occur on which is the nature of my question.

View 4 RepliesI'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
View 9 RepliesI'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.
View 3 RepliesI 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]
View 1 RepliesI can't seem to get hitTest to work for the plane in my little game. The code I'm using in the plane MC is:
[AS]if (_root.player.hitTest("_root.badguy"))
playerhealth -= 20;
}
[code]....
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!
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?
[Code]...
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???
View 2 RepliesRight 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.
View 2 RepliesI followed the bit101 tutorial on gravity and now have a movie clip called "ball" (instance name) with an embedded invisible button (so you can throw it all over the place).I also have a movie clip called "block1" (instance name too! what a coincidence, isn't life lovely). I want to make them collide, and make the ball bounce away.

Im an aspiring flash game developer struggling with a bit of code in my upcoming game, I want to play a sound(A "ding") everytime the main character touches a cookie on stage. The main character follows the mouse cursor, and the cookies fall down from the sky.
I have scripted the cookies main class, with this function(which works fine)
private function eFrame(e:Event):void{
Code:
private function eFrame(e:Event):void{
this.y += 3;//move the bell slowly downwards
if(this.hitTestObject(_root.mcMain)){//if this touches the main character
_root.mainJumping = true;//make him jump
[Code].....
And I was hoping it would go into the library and play the sound bit named "bellSound" but it doesnt do this, instead nothing happends, not even any errors under the "Compiler errors" So no im a bit lost, as I do not know how to make this work, so a sound is played when the main character touches the cookie.

This bounces the ball off each 'wall'. how to add more balls (using actionscript - ie not copying and pasting on the stage) and to make the balls bounce off eachother too?
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)

View 8 RepliesLets say that I got movieclips A,B,C,D in my scene and E,F which only come into scene when A hitTest B and C hitTest D.I was able to make the A+B and C+D hitTest functioning properly. But when E,F came into the scene, I tried to make E to hitTest F to get something else function but they won't work.# note that there is some short animation before E & F come into scene.I am pretty sure all the instance names are named properly.

View 3 RepliesI'm having an issue with using a hitTest to make a thumb menu from an image gallery I'm working with move up and down. Basically I need to use a hitTest because there is a conflict with the other rollover functions in the menu itself that prevents me from using a simple onRollOver function. All I want to do is hide the menu until the mouse rolls over it then I want it to pop up then on roll out hide itself again. The gallery is part of a larger site that loads the gallery into the index page and has a full screen function so it needs to stay at the absolute bottom of the page just above the footer at all times. Here is the code I'm working with but think I'm over complicating it.
