ActionScript 3.0 :: Collision Detection Using Multiple Instances?

Jun 18, 2009

Here's the low down of what I have

- a hero in the middle of the screen who follows the mouse
- he can shoot bullets, so there are multiple instances of the BulletClass
- zombies spawn, so there are multiple instances of the ZombieClass

Where is the best place to put my collisions detection code, and how would I even start? I'm new to AS3 so there's no real code to show you, I just need some starting advice.

Would I have to add each name of the bullet and zombie instances into an array and check them against each other in every enterframe? that could get pretty big....

I want to detect collision for several different objects, but want to keep the code as short as possible. whether I can use an array to hold the different movieclips and then detect collision with the entire array, or if I have to create a class and do it that way.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Multiple Object Collision Detection?

Feb 19, 2008

I read the tutorial about Multiple Object Collision Detection. What I want to do is have there be 3 circles and 3 squares. the circles are moving randomly while the squares are stationary. The actionscript would need to be checking to see whenever the moving circles collide with the stationary squares. However, it doesn't seem to be working. I followed the logic of the tutorial pretty closely, by making a separate list for the instance names. Here is the code for the collision detection.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Multiple Array Object Collision Detection?

Jun 23, 2009

I am creating a game where I have two separate arrays of objects that I need hitTested with each other. I found an old tutorial in AS2 that I modified to come up with this code:

ActionScript Code:
for (var w:Number = 0;w < enemyLaserArray.length;w++) {
for (var R:Number = 0;R < barricade1Array.length-1;R++) {
if (enemyLaserArray[w].hitTestObject(barricade1Array[R])) {

[code]....

This code executes like I believe it should, but along with removing the two objects, and splicing them from their arrays, I get this error

Code:
TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.on the line hitTestObject line. I have had similar problems in other areas of my project, but this time no matter what I try using trace statements I cannot fathom quite what the problem is.

Where (parent) is a manager logic class. The parent does this
public function checkCollisonWithPlayer(wall:MovieClip)

Flash :: Handle Collisions Detection With Multiple Instances Of One Movieclip?

Apr 27, 2010

I'm using Adobe Flash CS4.The language is Action Script 3In my library I have 2 items:playerwallthe player object is already functioning correctly with moving him around.Now when I place multiple wall objects into the stage (wall = 32x32 px) I want to prevent the player from moving when he walks into a wall.I've tried giving all the walls the same instance name and just check for a collision with that object but when I do that the collision only works for 1 of the walls.I could give all the instances of wall a different collision script but this is way to time consuming, is there another way to globally define the wall as solid for the player?

IDE :: Easy Way To Do Collision Detection?

May 3, 2009

Its been many years since I've used flash and I was just wondering what the easiest way to do collision detection was now. I know that there was some hit test bounding box stuff present earlier but I don't know the capabilities of flash cs4 and the advances that have been made. Google searches have yielded things like complex pixel-perfect collision detection but not a lot seems to have been written about CS4 yet.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Get Some Collision Detection Working

Mar 19, 2009

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]

ActionScript 3.0 :: Collision Detection - Use HitTestObject?

Oct 28, 2010

HitTestObject seems to check collision of bounddaries of shapes, it seems to consider everything rectangular. Also if one object jumps two pixel and other five pixels on EnterFrame it seems like there won't be any hit detection. Seriously guys what else method do you use, if you use hitTestObject how do you use?

Actionscript 3 :: How To Do Collision Detection For Hollow

Apr 19, 2010

I'm making small interactive games in flash to learn AS3,I need to check the collision between the player and the wall which is normally simple using the hitTestObject function.But now I made a wall object totally surrounding the player with corridors and turn, a collision playground so to speak. Now when I use the hitTestObject function to check whether the player is in collision with the wall it tells me it always collides supposedly because the player object is within the bounds of the wall object.So assuming that I'm correct about the error:How can I prevent getting a collision when I'm inside the bounds of the wall object but not touching the actual walls in that object?

Actionscript 3 :: Collision Detection Is Not Recognized?

Feb 22, 2012

I'm trying to make a game like Mario. I've made a character which can jump right now, but I've got some problems with collision detection.

I would like my character to jump on a bar, which is placed higher. My collision detection doesn't work at all I gues..I've made a cirle which has a instance name mcMain and I've made a MovieClip of it. T also made a rectangle which has a instance name balkje, I also made aMovieClip of it.

I hope you can tell me what is wrong about my code and what I've to change to make the collision detection work!

ActionScript 3.0 :: Too Many Objects For Collision Detection?

Sep 16, 2009

I have Object "A" that moves around and collides with other objects. There are hundreds of other different objects it can collide with. The only way (I found) to test for collision is to loop through every other object. That seems rather inefficient considering I don't even know how many objects exists. Other objects are constantly created and deleted. So this loop would be rather complicated.Is there a way for object A to receive what other object it collided with so that I can then do some code on that other object. Any way to avoid looping? I later need to find out how to detect what objects are near (within x pixels or so) of object A to decide with which one to interact. Maybe that could also be used now to limit the test of collision? Or maybe it gives someone an idea of what to try?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Collision Detection Between Two MovieClips?

Jun 11, 2010

I am in the process of building a project in which several MovieClips "swim" around semi-randomly, and another MovieClip that appears and expands over the mouse on click alters the frequency of the turns. Do do so, I simply need to change the value of a single variable on the first MovieClip's timeline when the two collide. I am using hitTestObject, but I keep running into errors. The expanding MovieClip does not have an instance name, because it only appears when the mouse is clicked, and quickly disappears.

I am receiving the error 1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type Class to an unrelated type flash.display.DisplayObject My code causing my first MovieClip to "swim" is on that MC's timeline, while the rest of the code is on the main timeline.

Collision Detection And Bounce Physics?

Jun 15, 2011

I need help with one of my Flash projects,I'm trying to use gskinners shape based collision detection, but for some reason I cant get it to work, but im pretty new to using classes, so I dont understand the structure too much. Can i get a tutorial on how to use the gskinner class? im using the as2 version.heres the code, bare with me, there's a lot here. in all codes, mc1 is the track outline MC, and mc2 is the car

basicly im making a 2D top down version of WipEout HD Fury, so file structure is something like this (the .fla is called wipeout as3 because i was initialy coding in as3 and never changed the filename).wipeout as3.fla (the flash file containing all the MCs and animations, but only enough coding to import all of the external code files, as well as the VCam and its script)
the code is;

Code: Select all #include RaceControl.as"

the RaceControl.as is used to determine the Car's control scheme, and refers to a physics code called RaceCar.as. i found it on the interwebs, all credit to matt carpenter;

Code: Select all// Race control

// Create key listener[code]........

the Bounce Function is my own work, and is what i want to happen when a collision is detected.now, the movieclip used for the car is my own drawn design, as is the track, and i want to use GSkinner's shape based collision to detect the collisions properly. so far i have the car driving around quite happily but i need it to collide with the walls of the track, rather than drive right through them.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Best Collision Detection For Games?

Moving/walking the mesh around was simple enough (X,Z). But when i added elevation to the terrain, i have to add movement in Y depending on the Y pos of the terrains vertices. My terrain does not have a fixed grid, and eventually might not have equal amount of rows per col. The way that i receive the verticeData is through one long vector.
