make a giant mouse curse come and put him in the recycle bin

when you compile it adds all the classes in it you only need the swf file

what the hell is this thread? how do i make flash? ideas needed? pics of link? how about reading the stickys on the forum called new to flash

by the sounds of it you need to stop what your doing and start with a dressup game once you have that move on to something else until you start to understand

wow is maddness still popular?? i was here last like a year ago and it was the in hip thing

how is it that every NG's member can afford flash or cs3 or cs4?

because when you release the mouse it runs the script so you release the mouse and
smallestLocation = 0;

then it = i

then when you release the mouse

it does it again

well im at home if you wanted to send the fla so i could see it

on(press){
	startDrag(this)
}
on(release){
	stopDrag()
this._x=userNumber
smallestDifference = Math.abs(userNumber - _root.xpositions[0])
smallestLocation = 0;
	for (i = 0; i < _root.xpositions.length; i++) {

if (Math.abs(userNumber - _root.xpositions[i]) < smallestDifference) {
smallestDifference = Math.abs(userNumber - _root.xpositions[i])
smallestLocation = i;


}
}
_root.xpositions[smallestLocation]=this._x
trace(_x)
trace(_root.xpositions[smallestLocation])
}

you shouldnt hit children!

Is there a topic or section?

If so, could someone please supply me with a link?

pretty sure you just ask here and offer money

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
this._x -=10;
}
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
gotoAndStop(3);
}else{
gotoAndStop(1);
}
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (Key.isDown(Key.UP)) {
this.gotoAndStop(2);
}else{
gotoAndStop(3);
}
}

stop using so many EnterFRames you only need one!

get rid of them all except for one

you know you've yelled and demanded and complained and then this?

you can goto hell!

i dont like art i like the programming side of things

so im building an engine then once the whole engines complete i'll look for an artist :)

www.newgrounds.com/flash
that will get you started :)

your friends OR an idea you want done :P

I have another code in the bullet that goes like this.

if (hitTest(_root.ast)) {
_root.ast.gotoAndStop(2);

This is so that "ast" plays the exploding animation when the bullet hits it.

then all you should need is

if (hitTest(_root.ast)) {
_root.ast.gotoAndStop(2);
removeMovieClip(this);

i guess you havnt been on the forum in the last couple of days :)

I understand the code, I don't know why it isn't working, but that code would be just like putting
if(hitTest(_root.enemy)){
this.removeMovieClip();
}
in a different statement

have you tried putting a trace to see if its registering the hitTest?
just chuck in
trace("GHF");
see if its registering the hittest or if the hittest is the problem

lol sorry man thought you said you CANT see how that would work

I can see how that would work, but it doesn't...

??
do you understand the code??

its saying if the bullet is off of the stage OR it hits the enemy Remove the bullet

i had trouble once i cant remember how i fixed it i think i mayhave done

removeMovieClip(this);
not sure

Does newgrounds have good sprite artists to work with for my game?
or is there somewhere else to look for sprite artists?

It couldn't be that obvious.
Denvish's code uses duplicatemovieclip if that's of any relevance.

try replacing

if(_x>Stage.width || _x<0 || _y<0 || _y>Stage.height){
//If off-stage, delete the dupe to save CPU 
this.removeMovieClip();
}

with this

if(_x>Stage.width || _x<0 || _y<0 || _y>Stage.height|| (this.hitTest(_root.ast))){
//If off-stage, delete the dupe to save CPU 
this.removeMovieClip();
}

no the code is as2
it sounds like a setup problem but who knows these codes should work

its in the code there

if(hitTest(_root.enemy)){
this.removeMovieClip();
}
