Help with HitTest

[amartainment]

Hey NG userz,
I needed some help for hitTest. Its not very accurate, in my game too, it shows mission failed sometimes when therez no 'actual' contact. Is there any replacement? or any way to solve it? Please help me.

Look into hitTestPoint. It's way more accurate.

You could go for having an internal, invisible Movieclip inside which you use for the hitTest.
Or, you could use shapeflag hitTesting - see

Or, you could scrap hitTesting and go for trigonometry
